Script Danny ODonoghue
  • The Script frontman Danny O’Donoghue made a live television blunder during an appearance on a daytime talk show in Manila .
  • He mistakenly thought the programme had cut to an advertisement break before he was due to perform the band's hit 'The Man Who Can’t Be Moved'.
  • O’Donoghue was seen casually walking to the stage, taking a drink of water, and calling for his backup singers, unaware he was on air.
  • He then asked the hosts if they were live, and upon confirmation, laughed about his error.
  • The singer later shared the clip of the awkward moment online, adding cricket sound effects and a humorous caption.
