ITV Lorraine viewers say 'someone messed up' as show makes glaring Dannii Minogue error

Lorraine viewers were quick to point out a glaring error as Dannii Minogue appeared on the show. The Australian singer, actress and television personality appeared live on the ITV show to chat to host Lorraine Kelly about a number of her current and upcoming projects.

Danni dazzled in hot pink on the programme as she chatted about her new fashion line with QVC UK and how she will be "playing cupid" on her new gay dating show, I Kissed A Boy. The new show will air on BBC Three later this year and sees ten singletons find love as the participants jet off to Europe in search of Mr Right.

However, eagle-eyed, or should we say eagle-hearing viewers noticed the show made a mistake as they teased her appearance on the programme, seemingly confusing her with her famous popstar sister, Kylie.

It turns out the show played out the Neighbours theme tune but as fans are well aware, it was sister Kylie who starred in the now axed soap while Dannii was in the Australian soap Home and Away.

Picking up on the error, @kellymcc5 tweeted: "Somebody screwed up with the Minouge sisters and the shows they appeared in #lorraine." @CazAtSDCC commented: "Why on earth did #Lorraine play the Neighbours theme tune when introducing Dannii Minogue? She was in Home and Away!!!"

@cookiejoe9 shared: "Err I thought Danni Minogue was in Home and Away so why play Neighbours theme tune? #lorraine." @ChantalMascoe wrote: "#Lorraine Actually Danni was in Home and Away."

Others, however, were just happy to see her back on screen. @superpidge said: "When you see the amazing @DanniiMinogue on #Lorraine. It’s always fabulous seeing one of my favourite TV judges back on British telly." @Nicola_Howe_ tweeted: "There she is! @DanniiMinogue loved seeing you on #Lorraine can’t wait to see your dating show! #LoveIsLove."

Dannii chatted to Lorraine about her latest projects (ITV)

Talking about her upcoming news how, Lorraine said: "So I hear that you will be playing cupid?" to which Dannii laughed and said: "Yes, it's my dream job!"

Speaking about I Kissed a Boy when it was announced, Dannii said: "So I am so thrilled for a gay dating show to be entering the sea of other dating shows that have existed on TV for years. I have been a staunch ally of the LGBTQ+ community for as long as I can remember.

"My close friends know that my dream job title would be ‘Cupid’ - so this gives me that flutter-of-love feeling inside too, just to be a part of it. Let’s hope there is love, sealed with a kiss!"

Fiona Campbell, Controller at BBC Three, said of the programme: "I Kissed a Boy is a brilliant new show in the dating space that we think has huge potential for BBC Three. We hope our audience will love the heady mix of drama and heart-warming romance that we know the series will bring."
