Good Morning Britain viewers left baffled by Robbie Williams blunder… as show uses the WRONG photo of star
Richard Arnold's showbiz section left viewers confused on Monday morning
GOOD Morning Britain viewers were left baffled this morning during a showbiz segment on Robbie Williams.
As Richard Arnold revealed all about the She's the One singer’s upcoming album and collaboration with Killers frontman Brandon Flowers, eagle-eyed viewers noticed a slight blunder.
While discussing the duet, the show mistakenly flashed a portrait of Panic! At The Disco singer Brendon Urie instead.
Talking about Robbie’s upcoming plans, Richard said: “Robbie announced his first solo album in three years during the ad breaks of last night’s X Factor.
“The album is called the Heavy Entertainment Show and is out on 4 November .
“There’ll be collaborations with Ed Sheeran and The Killers frontman Brandon Flowers."
Noticing the error, Twitter user Looren Ann wrote: “Brandon and Brendon look a bit different."
Responding to GMB’s official account directly, another viewer wrote: “@GMB did you mean to show Brendon Urie? Or did you think he was Brandon Flowers??”
Branding the blunder a “fail,” Keyleigh Tiernan tweeted: “The photo who showed on TV was Brendon Urie from panic! At the disco.. not Brendan Flowers.”
Another viewer wrote: “@GMB your entertainment bit about Robbie Williams, the picture you put up was Brendon Urie, not Brandon Flowers too early to be confused!”
