I'm a Celebrity viewers were left cringing at Matt Hancock's attempt at singing in the jungle last night.
The former British Health Secretary made his karaoke debut as he was teamed up with co-star, comedian, Seann Walsh
Matt noticed that Seann had a black XX tattoo on his neck, and asked him what it meant. Seann explained it was a nod to his favourite band, Blink 182 which led to the pair discussing music and musicians
Seann asked: "You like Ed Sheeran?" to which Matt replied: “Love him, yeah… and I’m from Suffolk as well."
He then began to sing the lyrics to the Ed Sheeran track "Perfect":
"I love that em dancer in the dark,?" says Seann. Matt replies: You between my arms,...listening to my favourite song"
Twitter users were quick to crucify the politician for his vocal abilities:

Hancock has been heavily criticised for his decision to take part in the reality series, and viewers have reportedly slated ITV for paying the politician to take part. I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here continues tonight on Virgin Media One at 9pm
