LeAnn Rimes was left gagging on Thursday’s This Morning as she tried traditional British foods including a ‘very dry’ Scotch egg, pork scratchings and Bovril.
The bizarre Rimes Rates segment showed the American country star, 41, saying ‘I don’t think I can do this’ as she tried some of the products.
Rochelle Humes and Joel Dommett were presenting the show that day and gave her the different things to try.
Joel has to hand LeAnn a glass of water after she nearly choked on the dry scotch egg.
Soon after she had to try the Bovril which Rochelle described saying: ‘It’s like watered down beef.’

She looked very unimpressed and then gagged while pulling a face then quickly putting the mug down.
The classic pub snack of pork scratchings also didn’t impress her, as she gave them a one out of 10 rating.
LeAnn then moaned: ‘Give me a chip or something sweet!’ and was handed a Tunnock’s teacake, which Rochelle branded a ‘Scottish classic’.
Joel then chipped in and joked: ‘There’s nothing that complements a cup of Bovril more.’
LeAnn then said: ‘Yeah, we got pork, and egg, beef and then some sweets… Mmm. I’m gonna give this a seven out of ten.’
Former Saturdays singer Rochelle then went on to admit: ‘I think we’ve blown our first time meeting LeAnn Rimes.’
Viewers reacted to the moment on X saying: ‘NTA winning TV; Leann Rimes drinking a cup of Bovril #thismorning.’
It comes after LeAnn shared how she struggled through the pressure of public expectations while growing up in the spotlight.
She told Stellar Magazine that when she swapped from country to pop music and began to express herself in more womanly ways, she suffered a lot of judgement.

‘I don’t think people honestly, until my 30s, allowed me to grow up’ LeAnn explained to the publication.
‘In this industry, people like to pigeonhole you because it’s easier for them to sell. But basically, I don’t know how anyone could ask a 13-year-old girl to stay in a lane – and especially for someone like me, who is kind of America’s sweetheart, in a way.’
The singer continued: ‘People just want to keep you stuck at that age. They don’t want you to grow and they don’t want to see you change. But part of growing up as a woman is exploring our sexuality’.
LeAnn went on to explain that while she remains defiant, criticism can get to her at times.
‘You have to care and not care at all in the same breath. I think we all can be really critical of ourselves as women, anyway. It’s easy to do’ she said.
‘I have great days when I feel amazing and others where I feel bloated and gross. I really give myself a lot more grace these days to just roll with what life is presenting’.

The Grammy-award winning singer was confirmed as the newest member of the coaching panel on The Voice in a major show shake-up earlier this year.
The country music star is one of three new faces joining as mentors, with only Guy Sebastian returning from the previous line-up.
Last year, Guy, 42, was joined by Rita Ora, Jessica Mauboy and Jason Derulo in the iconic red chairs, but Seven has recruited a string of new coaches this year.
LeAnn will be joined on the coaching panel by Grammy-nominated singer Adam Lambert, n songwriter Kate Miller-Heidke and returning mentor Guy.
