That dong d-dong dong, dong!
When Frankie Muniz signed on for VH1’s reboot of “The Surreal Life,” he never anticipated that Dennis Rodman’s male member would show up as the ninth celebrity roommate.
“It was just so shocking,” the “Malcolm in the Middle” alum, 36, tells Page Six exclusively, recounting Rodman’s frequent full-frontal displays throughout production.
“I’m unfortunately, like, Dennis Rodman-dong height,” the 5-foot-5 star adds with a laugh, admitting he was eye-level with Rodman’s manhood for much of his monthlong reality TV experience.
“I saw way too much of Dennis Rodman’s dong.”
Muniz says that he and his castmates — including Rodman, 61, Manny MUA, Kim Coles, Tamar Braxton, Stormy Daniels, August Alsina and CJ Perry — were so inspired by the 6-foot-7 athlete’s omnipresent schlong that they wrote a song.
“We made a song about Dennis Rodman’s dong and I hope that makes the show because that was really funny,” he reveals, also joking that the tune would shoot straight to “No. 1, 100 percent” should it ever be officially released as a single.
Despite Muniz’s involuntary encounters with Rodman’s d—k, the former child actor tells Page Six that he enjoyed getting to know the controversial NBA legend when he had pants on.
“They did such a good job of hiding who else was going to be in the house. So literally the minute you walk in the house is the first time you see anybody,” he says, detailing his first moments of filming. “So your mind is racing: ‘Who’s going to be there? Is it anybody that I know?’”
He continues, “And then you go in and you see Dennis Rodman and I’m like, ‘Oh man, I’m going to be living with Dennis Rodman. This is going to be crazy.’”
For decades, Rodman has tantalized the public with his flamboyant style, multiple arrests, rehab stints, high-profile romances with the likes of Carmen Electra and Madonna and unexpected friendships with such political figures as North Korean dictator Kim Jong Un and 45th US President Donald Trump.
But, according to Muniz, there is more to Rodman than his headline-grabbing antics.
“Dennis I think is one of the most emotional [people]. But he’s so guarded. He puts on this really tough exterior. But every once in a while, he would open up a little bit. And you’d get to kind of see why he’s Dennis, why he acts the way he does and all that kind of stuff,” he says of his new pal.
“We ended up having a pretty cool bond, which I definitely didn’t expect entering in the beginning,” Muniz elaborates. “I was like, ‘That guy, he does not like me.’ But by the end, me and him had a cool little bond.”
Season 7 of “The Surreal Life” — which returns after a 16-year hiatus — premieres Monday, Oct. 24, at 9 p.m. ET on VH1.
