The outspoken TV personality was appearing alongside Ms Atack, 32, and Laura Whitmore, 36, on Chris Moyles’ Radio X show to promote the latest series of Celebrity Juice, which returned to ITV 2 last night.
After being introduced by the DJ, the Inbetweeners star thanked him for pronouncing her name correctly, saying: "I always breathe a sigh of relief when someone says my name correctly."
Interrupting, 48-year-old Lemon – whose real name is Leigh Francis – said: "Can I just say something?
"Do you know Peter Andre is doing a film and he wanted you to play his girlfriend. I said: 'I bet you do.' He said: 'But you know Emily Atack [pronouncing the name incorrectly] more than I do.'
“That's not her name for a start so if you're going to phone her up, that's not... but he's a lovely fella isn't he?”
Moyles said the correct pronunciation of her surname which is “A-tack” whereas Lemon insists on calling the frustrated star “Attack”.
Either way, it’s unclear whether the blonde was aware of the offer.
Mysterious Girl singer Andre, 49, has made no secret of his desire to make it big in Hollywood.
The Australian singer recently revealed that he is filming a movie and shared a photo on Instagram in which he posed alongside son Junior, 16, and movie director Fredi Nwaka.
