​Viewers Reckon This Newsreader’s Outfit Looks Like A ‘Penis’

The placement of her top underneath isn’t exactly helping, either. Nor is the zip underneath that...

Once the internet has spotted something amusing, the internet will never let it go. And the World Wide Web is also full of eagle-eyed people with a lot of time on their hands - like those who tuned in to Australia's Channel Nine this week to find newsreader Samantha Heathwood donning a particularly memorable outfit.

If you look closely, you can see the shape of her jacket collar makes out a recognisable form. That's right, it looks like a penis and a pair of bollocks, which is, of course, nothing short of absolutely hilarious for anyone who's got the mental age of a 10-year-old (so all of us, then).

If your mind really is as immature as everyone else's, all you have to do is follow the outline of Heathwood's unfortunately-shaped collar to spot the phallus.

And the placement of her top underneath isn't exactly helping, either. Nor is the zip underneath that... No, YOU have a filthy mind.

Viewers immediately took to social media to point out the interesting wardrobe choice - with many dubbing the garment the 'penis jacket', while others said it was a bit of a 'dick move' by Channel Nine to make Heathwood wear it.

One person wrote: "I know I'm immature but this cracks me up."

Another added: "Literally cannot unsee it now."

Mind you, not everyone had bad things to say about the jacket - some were able to actually rise above the sniggering, with one writing: "You people are so catty, so what, it looks good on her!"

I mean, it does. But it still looks like a penis.

And, believe it or not, this wasn't the jacket's first rodeo on live TV.

A similar photo of the jacket also did the rounds on social media a few years back, when another newsreader called Natarsa Belling was seen wearing it on 10 News.

Commenting on a 'who wore it better?'-style photo, one person wrote: "Who thought that was a great idea? The first time!"

Another person said: "This is priceless."

A third wrote: "#penisjacket lives on!!!! I still find this hilarious!"

Someone else added: "Woah that's even worse than before... this time spillage."

Wow, yup, that last person went there.
