This Morning host Josie Gibson was left incredulous after a Love Island star made a wisecrack about her appearance as she presented from Cheltenham.
The 37-year-old star has been reporting from the racing festival for This Morning.
But she shared with viewers how a reality show contestant compared her style to an iconic film character… but not one known for their sartorial elegance.
Who was This Morning host Josie Gibson compared to?
Josie wore a tweed jacket and a hat for the racing today (Thursday March 17).
And her fashion sense came in for praise from sports presenter Ed Chamberlin as she presented a live segment.
But during her chat with Ed and GMB’s Charlotte Hawkins, Josie revealed that not everyone had been as complimentary.

She said she’d said hello to Love Island‘s Chris Hughes during the course of the morning.
And that’s because Chris is also involved with ITV’s coverage of the event.
According to Josie, Chris had suggested she looked a bit like a Baywatch star.
However, he added she also resembled a slightly less glamorous film figure in her gear.
‘I couldn’t believe it’
Josie recalled to Ed and Charlotte: “Do you know what Chris Hughes said to me? I bumped into Chris Hughes in the backstage tent there.
“He said: ‘You look like a cross between Crocodile Dundee and Pamela Anderson.'”
A cross between Crocodile Dundee and Pamela Anderson.
Pretending to be annoyed, Josie added in mock exasperation: “I couldn’t believe it.”
Ed told her: “I’ll have a word”.
And Charlotte similarly added: “We’ll speak to him.”
‘What is she wearing?’
Josie’s look also attracted comments from viewers who tweeted their thoughts online.

Another asked: “What is Josie wearing?! #ThisMorning.”
