Sugababes star Keisha Buchanan suffered a technical issue as she spoke to Holly Willoughby and Phillip Schofield on This Morning today.
As the singer spoke about suffering with racism in the music industry via video link, the screen froze and she was cut off from the ITV show.
Phillip and Holly quickly managed to dial the 35-year-old again though – getting her back on the line.
The issue awkwardly occurred as Keisha started talking about being a ‘scapegoat’ at her music label.

She claimed that negative stories started coming out about her after she left the band.
Fans went online to voice their dismay that Keisha had accidentally been cut off.
One commented: “It cut out when she was about to name drop.”
Another added: “Cut her off before name dropping.”
Keisha, who was part of the Sugababes between 1998 and 2009, said that her fans had always been great, however she said she experienced ‘systematic racism’ in the industry.

She told Holly and Phil: “I’ve always been critical of myself and it made me even more so.”
Keisha said she thought she’d be labelled as “aggressive” if she disagreed about things like contracts and songwriting.
When asked why she was speaking up about it now, Keisha said she hadn’t realised it as racism at the time.
Keisha has also shared a 14-minute YouTube video with fans titled ‘Life as the ‘black’ Sugababe’ where she speaks about her experiences in the band.
This Morning airs weekdays on ITV at 10am
