A weatherman on the UKโs BBC Breakfast weatherman was left embarrassed after confessing he didnโt like pop star Rick Astley โ while Astley himself was listening.
Host Charlie Stayt, 58, asked weatherman Matt Taylor: โMatt, are you a Rick Astley fan?โ
The 44-year-old meteorologist replied: โErm, not a massive one.โ
Charlie chuckled: โWell, that was the wrong thing to say. Heโs listening and heโs coming up in just a moment.โ

โIโll ask you again, are you a Rick Astley fan?โ
Quickly going from cool, calm and collected to absolutely mortified, Matt then responded: โOh, Iโm sorry. Love Rick Astley, the best. Grew up with him.โ
Charlie said: โGreat, heโs coming up next so heโll be grateful to hear that. He heard everything you said, Matt. The damage is done.โ
The camera then cut to 54-year-old Rick who was in hysterics at the exchange while Matt grumped: Thanks Charlie.โ
The host replied simply: โYouโre welcome.โ

Fellow BBC Breakfast host Louise Michin couldnโt contain her laughter and neither could Rick himself, as he flashed up on video call with his hand over his mouth.
Taylor tried to make excuses on Twitter, writing: โNote to self โฆ Charlie isnโt always trying to make me do something silly, like sing, on air (hence my response) AND MORE IMPORTANTLY Make sure you check who is on the programme after you.โ
Astley, 54, tweeted: โAll is forgiven.โ
