Colin Farrell says ‘s***’ live on Lorraine as he promotes new Disney film – but blames it on host’s leopard print dress
The actor forgot his cousin's name during the show as he attempted to give a shout-out before turning the air blue
LORRAINE Kelly was forced to apologise as Colin Farrell SWORE live on TV and blamed it on being flustered by the host's leopard print dress.
The actor, who stars in the new Disney remake of Dumbo, also forgot his cousin's name during a shout-out on the show before turning the air blue by saying "horses' s**t".
After the next ad break, Lorraine told viewers: "I just have to say a tiny apology.
"Lovely Colin was on earlier and he said a naughty word. A few of you were not amused.
"Sorry about that, but it's a live show. What can you do?"
Fans were amused by his slip-up, with one saying: "Most awkward interview ever, and then to top it off he says ‘s**t’!! #Lorraine."
Another added: "Colin F saying s**t on breakfast TV. Made my day. #Lorraine."
Others asked: "Did Colin Farrell just say ‘Horse s**t’ #Lorraine," "#lorraine did #colinfarrell just say horses s*t on breakfast tv?", and "Did Colin Farrell just say the S word on #Lorraine?"
While others said there was a big fuss made about nothing.
One wrote: "Are people moaning that Colin Farrell said horse s**t on #lorraine I didn't even notice!
"FFS YOU'D THINK HE SAID C***! Lol! Go give your heads a wobble! #itv"
Earlier Colin had said during his interview that he wanted to do a quick shout out to his Auntie May who was watching.
"She is the most gentle and bravest woman in the world," Colin said.
"She has been fighting health issues and having a really rough time so I just wanted to say 'I love you'.
"And my cousin, whose name I can't remember. Oh my God....
"Martina... I'm so sorry. Martina, Martina!"
Hilariously, his excuse for the slip-up was being pre-occupied by Lorraine's choice of clothing.
He said: "Lorraine makes me nervous when she wears leopard skin print."
