He rose to fame on The X Factor in 2012 with his band Union J, who finished in fourth place.

Josh Cuthbert wasn’t too pleased during Friday’s episode of Celebrity MasterChef when he playfully clashed with judge Gregg Wallace, who made fun of his singing abilities.

During the episode, the singer, 26, had rustled up an impressive and tasty-looking Tarte Tatin.

Awkward moment: Josh Cuthbert found himself unimpressed on Celebrity MasterChef after a light-hearted exchange with judge Gregg Wallace, following a remark about his singing prowess.

To which Gregg quipped: ‘Josh, you couldn’t sing, but you can cook.’

With Josh responding with: ‘You haven’t heard me sing, don’t act like you have.’

He continued: ‘You have no idea who I am!’ 

Uh-oh: On the show, the 26-year-old singer prepared a delectable Tarte Tatin, prompting Gregg to joke, “Josh, you couldn’t sing, but you can cook.”

Gregg and his co-judge, John Torode, were left awkwardly laughing over the scenes, as he cheekily added: ‘He’s got a point!’

And the ‘spat’ didn’t go unnoticed by viewers at home who took to Twitter to share their thoughts over the blunder.

One person said: ‘‘You don’t know who I am’ Go #josh! #CelebrityMasterchef that told you @GreggWallace4.’

A different user put: ‘Josh: “You don’t know who I am!” Gregg: “He’s got a point.” And so, the celebrity reality TV format is broken forever #CelebrityMasterchef.’

Feisty: With Josh responding with: ‘You haven’t heard me sing, don’t act like you have. You have no idea who I am!’

Oops: Gregg and his co-judge, John Torode, were left awkwardly laughing over the scenes, as he cheekily added: ‘He’s got a point!’

Another show watcher commented: ‘Well said Josh! Vs Greg – hahahaha #CelebrityMasterchef.’

While a different viewer added: ‘”You have no idea who I am!” Okay, that made me laugh…through to the next round! #CelebrityMasterchef.’

And despite the awkward ‘spat’, Josh sailed through to the next round with rugby star Martin Bayfield, with Lily Allen’s father, Keith Allen, and T’Pau singer, Carol Decker, being sent home.  

Celebrity MasterChef continues on Thursday at 8pm on BBC One.
