Carole Baskin has been pranked into recording shoutouts for disgraced entertainers Rolf Harris and Jimmy Saville.

She has recorded a video after she was hired by Tom Armstrong, a comedian from Australia.

Armstrong's request came through the Cameo site, where celebs can charge people to record them a birthday message.

Baskin's Message Calls Out Harris And Savile

"Hi Rolf Harris, your kids all wanted to get together and tell you that you have really touched them, and that they love all that you have done for them."

She continues: "I hear there's a lot of great stories about you and your best friend Jimmy Savile."

"Can't wait to hear those."

She wraps it up with "Happy Birthday, Rolf."

Rolf Harris was jailed for indecent assaults on girls as young as seven or eight back in 2014.

While Jimmy Savile had numerous accusations of sexual abuse levelled at him.

The former Top of the Pops presenter died in 2011.

Carole Baskin furious with prank

The animal rights activist told Mirror Online that she's fuming with the prank.

So she told the newspaper: "I am amazed at the lengths and expenses people will go to in order to trash my reputation."

"Of course, I have never heard of Rolf Harris, and would not have done the Cameo had I known."
