Nova radio star Nikki Osborne has made the bombshell claim she was unfairly targeted by Qantas staff because of her large bust.
The Brisbane-based presenter, 44, spoke out on Monday on the Ash, Luttsy & Nikki Osborne show, claiming her ample bosom size resulted in her being treated unfairly.
‘If women have cleavage they are treated not as well, that’s my opinion. Last week in the Qantas lounge I was told to button up my top because my boobs were too distracting,’ Nikki began.
‘I’m looking at what’s happening and it seems to be anyone who’s got boobs is copping it.’
She added that women with larger breasts were often negatively stereotyped by society, citing Pamela Anderson and Sydney Sweeney as two examples.
‘I feel like as a collective we’re subjectively objectifying these women. We’re subconsciously judging women with bigger boobs… I’m noticing it more and more in a negative way,’ Nikki said.

Daily Mail has reached out to Qantas for comment.
In December, Nikki was announced as the new addition to Nova’s 106.9 Brisbane breakfast team, replacing Olympic swimmer Susie O’Neill.
The funnywoman, known for her controversial comedy style, celebrated her new appointment by sharing an old clip that she claims got her ‘fired’ from Channel Nine.
‘It’s an oldie but a goodie,’ the Nova breakfast star captioned the video shared to Instagram.
In the footage, the comic was seen talking about onesies on breakfast program Mornings.
Nikki was asked whether she thought ‘grown women look weird in the garment.
‘My husband says you don’t look at the turkey while you’re stuffing it,’ she joked, referring to whether wearing sexy lingerie to bed is appealing to one’s spouse.
As host Sonia Kruger was seen raising a hand to her face and stifling her laughter, David Campbell quipped: ‘What does that even mean?’

‘I won’t explain it…’ Nikki replied.
‘But, I think too many hipsters have been interviewed regarding this, because I think most men would prefer women in their lingerie than their onesies.’
‘I mean let’s face it, onesies are a logistical nightmare if you’re trying to enter a jiggery-pokery, because it’s like “oh, give me five minutes”.’
Campbell wasn’t keen to hear any more, telling Nikki: ‘After hearing what your husband says, I’m not even looking forward to Thanksgiving anymore,’ while Sonia joked: ‘There goes that turkey sandwich I was going to have for lunch.’
Sharing the ‘oldie but a goodie’ clip to her Instagram, Nikki wrote: ‘Gobble Gobble #fyp #controversy #turkeystuffing.’
Nikki’s experience as a sketch comedy veteran, writer, trained actor and stand-up comedian spans the past two decades.
The comedian also maintains a popular social media presence, and is known for the quirky characters she plays.
