Naga was today hosting BBC Breakfast alongside her regular co-host Charlie Stayt, 60.
She is well known for her cheeky quips, and today Matt was the butt of her joke.
During this morning's live link up with Saturday Kitchen, Matt showed off his new shirt which had big pink flamingos on it - which was a change to his usual formal look.
Naga immediately took aim, and asked him what was on his shirt, to which he explained he had been mocked by his co-workers for it, with one colleague asking him if he was "having a mid-life crisis".

She then teased: "Well it's in stark contrast to the usual dark blue, which I think you must have about thirty of them (shirts)!"
Before adding with a grin: "You're moving out of your comfort zone, it's good to see Matt! Keep it expanding!"
But Matt took it well, and then said it was "better" than the one he had on last week for Eurovision.
The TV chef then ran through what was coming up on his show that morning, after which Naga brought up the shirt again and cheekily said while laughing: "So you're gonna keep the shirt on then?"

Matt then replied with mock defiance: "Totally am! Because it's upsetting everyone, so even more reason to keep it on!"

However, it Naga has once again appeared to rub viewers up the wrong way with her questioning.
During the chat, she turned to one of the Gladiators and said: "So are you going to be then....the peacemaker Livi, or Diamond, what do you want me to call you Livi or Diamond?"
"Nitro, what are you? Are you going to kinda get involved in the melee," she then asked.

One said: "Naga is so bloody rude, I can imagine she’s a bloody nightmare to work with."
A second said: "I find Naga Munchetty very abrasive."
