I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! viewers couldn’t get over the moment Matt Hancock burst into song shortly after arriving in the jungle.

Former Health Secretary to the Prime Minister Matt Hancock arrived in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here! on Wednesday night, where he and Seann Walsh got to hang out together before meeting the rest of the campmates.

As they got to know each other in the jungle, comedian Seann asked Matt about what sort of music he listens to and the MP admitted he’s a huge Ed Sheeran fan.

“Quite a mix really, a lot of mainstream,” he said. “But I’m not going to put a tattoo of Ed Sheeran on my neck am I?”

“You like Ed Sheeran?” Seann asked.

“Love him,” Matt replied. “And I’m from Suffolk as well.”

As Seann tried to think of the Ed song he likes, asking if it was called ‘Dancer in the Dark’, Matt proceeded to serenade Seann.

“You between my arms, barefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite song,” the MP sang.

“Don’t get me singing, I’m terrible!’” He said before continuing to sing. “‘Perfect’ it’s called ‘Perfect’!”

Viewers can’t get over the bizarre moment and have been sharing their hilarious reactions on Twitter.

One person wrote: “Paying for a tv licence to hear Matt Hancock completely ruin an Ed Sheeran song wow #ImACeleb [sic].”

“Currently watching Matt hancock getting the words wrong to Ed Sheeran #ImACeleb,” tweeted another.

“I want to know how ed sheeran feels about being matt hancock’s favourite singer,” asked a third.

The duo also spoke about Blink-182 in another bizarre TV moment, after Matt asked Seann about his tattoo in tribute to the band.
