On ITV This Morning today (Tuesday June 15), viewers cringed when a Dreamboy stripped off live on air.
The cheesy moment saw one of the notorious dance troupe’s members whip off his top to reveal a toned, muscular body.
But instead of getting everyone hot under the collar, it seemed his antics had the opposite effect.
What happened on This Morning today?
A male stripper from the troupe appeared on the show today, and told hosts Phillip Schofield and Holly Willoughby that he had been honing his craft during lockdown.
And, before they could say anything, he leapt into action, flung off his top and did a backflip.

Looking shocked, Phil then joked: “I’ve worked so hard in lockdown too! Underneath, this is what I look like. It’s like a mirror!”

How did viewers react to the stripper?
However, far from getting the blood pumping, the Dreamboy left viewers decidedly cold.
So much so, many took to Twitter to remark about the ‘cringe fest’.
One said: “Oh no that was cringe I mean don’t get me wrong I watched intensely but I cringed #thismorning.”
Another wrote: “Dreamboys… cringefest.”
A third left a gif of Ricky Gervais laughing, and said: “Dream boys? Only in my nightmares maybe!” followed by a red-faced emoji.
However, others loved the Dreamboy’s antics as one said: “Well this Dreamboy taking his top off has cheered me up.”
Anotehr wrote: “That just made my morning what’s that Dreamboy’s name again? He is hot.”
What’s happening on ITV This Morning during the summer?
Having a male stripper on the show and then a feature on dehydration (as well as a segment on watermelons) means that the summer is definitely here.
And in only a matter of weeks, Phil and Holly will be taking their annual summer break.
This means good news for fans of Eamonn Holmes and Ruth Langsford.
