This is the hilarious moment Sir Cliff Richard accidentally calls AI ‘artificial insemination’ after singing a song during a BBC interview. 

The legendary singer, 83, sat down with BBC Breakfast’s Charlie Stayt today to discuss his latest career milestone and his health.

Despite admitting that he has been forced to slow things down, Sir Cliff joked: ‘Fortunately I can still sing and that’s the main thing and I don’t need AI for help.’

And after Stayt requested a quick closing tune, Sir Cliff broke out singing his original song, My Kinda Life.

Upon finishing the song, he shook Stayt’s hand and, referencing their earlier conversation, said: ‘And I didn’t need artificial insemination!’.

Stayt immediately burst into laughter and looked around the studio to a room of other laughs. 

Stayt, still red from laughing, then told Sir Cliff: ‘That is the best line of all.

‘That is a whole different ball game’, to which Sir Cliff replies, ‘Oh dear’. 

After marking 65 years in the music industry, Sir Cliff told Stayt he has no plans to retire despite recently celebrating his 83rd birthday.

However, he did admit he had problems with his back.

‘I used to have trouble with the lower part of my back and this chair is not good for it because normally I’d have a cushion,’ he explained.

This led Charlie to ask: ‘You just had a birthday, right?’

‘Yes, I have,’ Sir Cliff replied. ‘I am going on tour and it’s my 65th year.’

When asked how he feels at the age of 83, the singer said: ‘I feel fantastic. I am going on tour, I have got a book out, I’ve got an album coming out, and when the tour starts they are going to film it and I am going to be in the cinema.’

‘So what I feel? Fabulous,’ he added as Stayt asked: ‘Does the word slowing down have anything to do with your life?’

Upon finishing the song, he shook Stayt’s hand and, referencing their earlier conversation, said: ‘And I didn’t need artificial insemination!’

Stayt immediately burst into laughter and looked around the studio to a room of other laughs 

Sir Cliff has previously revealed the secrets of his longevity and credits his diet with a certain regime of eating to stay in shape (pictured in 1964)

‘Yes,’ Sir Cliff candidly admitted. ‘I have in the last few years tried to slow down because otherwise, I don’t do as much. 

‘Well, for instance, I am going to do a tour, I try to make sure that I have a day off every other day so I am not constantly singing.

‘And obviously, I don’t want to retire but I am probably going to stop like a red light.’

‘I have still left myself open to things for as long as I can,’ he added. ‘Fortunately I can still sing and that’s the main thing and I don’t need AI for help.

‘I won’t need it because the minute I can’t sing I won’t do it anymore.’

Sir Cliff has previously revealed the secrets of his longevity.

Sir Cliff credits his diet with a certain regime of eating a special diet and says he deprives himself of the things he loves to stay in shape. 

Clarifying that ‘”it’s not really a diet’, Sir Cliff said: ‘I just eat quite well these days, but I only eat what I’m supposed to eat.’

He said: ‘I have to give up certain things that I loved before, but there are so many vegetables and different things I can eat, that I do.’
