Celebs Go Dating’s Lee Ryan leaves fans cringing with his dodgy Rihanna impression and terrible flirting
CELEB’S Go Dating’s Lee Ryan left viewers cringing with his dodgy accents and terrible flirting in tonight’s show.
The E4 series returned to our screens earlier this evening, and 36-year-old Lee had fans in hysterics as he attempted to crack on with a Rihanna lookalike.
The Blue singer complimented the beauty on her celebrity doppelganger before attempting RiRi’s Bajan accent.
He said: “Do you ever get asked to do a tribute for Rihanna? You could make a killing.”
She replied: “I need to call her up and see if there are any jobs going.”
Lee then tried to impersonate the star, saying with a dodgy accent: “She’d be like: ‘No man’!”
Unimpressed, the beauty asked: “Is that your Bajan accent?”
Moving the conversation along, Lee attempted singing one of Rihanna’s hits, Shine Bright Like A Diamond.
He then started talking about his personal life, telling the girl: “I’ve got kids, I’ve got a dog as well.
“He’s very clingy, when my little boy and him are together they’re just like two kids playing.
“It’s like having a mute son.”
Fans were stunned by Lee’s display, flocking to social media to share their second-hand embarrassment for the star.
One wrote: “Oh god, Lee Ryan is making me cringe so much.”
Another added: “Lee is making a complete fool of himself.”
A third said: “Absolute dad chat from Lee Ryan. He’ll be telling them about his shed next.”
