STRICTLY star Jacqui Smith shocked Good Morning Britain viewers today with a cheeky joke about her “jugs”.
The former Home Secretary, 57, had a playful bit of banter with host Ben Shephard as as she spoke via Zoom.
The ex politician is in a Strictly bubble to ensure she remains coronavirus free for the upcoming series, and as a result wasn’t in her usual home setting.
Ben said: “We are missing the jugs though. We don’t want people moaning about the lack of jugs.”
The quip confused Kate Garraway, while Jacqui giggled: “Kate. You know I usually have my jugs on display when I come on Good Morning Britain.”
Ben them jibed: “Kate never pays attention to what’s going on in the background.”
It prompted Kate to say: “No I’m listening to what she has to say. I’m not staring at her jugs.”
Viewers loved it, with one writing on Twitter: “Just switched @GMB on to hear Ben Shepard talk about Jacqui Smith’s jugs… totally out of context comment.”
Another joked: “When you put the tv on and the 1st thing you hear is Jackie’s jugs and wonder what channel you have put on @ITV@GMB.”

Last week Jacqui revealed her stunning transformation after a glitzy makeover during the show’s rehearsals.
The UK’s first female Home Secretary – who served from 2009 to 2009 under Labour’s Gordon Brown – shared her new look with her 28.3k followers on Twitter.
Since joining the cast of this years popular BBC One dance competition, Jacqui has swapped her smart work attire and natural make-up for something a bit more glam.
The TV personality and broadcaster looked stunning with styled her hair in a middle parting and loose Hollywood curls.
She completed the look with flawless face make-up, a peachy coloured lip gloss, some sparkly eyeshadow and dramatic false lashes.
Jacqui told fans: “The @bbcstrictly wardrobe, hair and makeup teams are genius. Here’s a little tease of things to come!
“(Of course I look like this every weekend when recording @forthemanypod and that @IainDale is a fiend for the sequins”
Many of her followers couldn’t get over how great she looked.
One replied to the selfie and said: “Jacqui! Wow! You’re always gorgeous, but you look ‘movie star’ here. I particularly love the light colour of your hair it’s very flattering. I’m so excited for this show. Our whole family is rooting for you already xx”
Another wrote: “How good do you feel Jacqui? You look good. You are on a spectacular journey.Enjoy.”

Earlier this month it was confirmed that Jacqui was the 12th and final star to be taking part in Strictly’s 18th series later this year.
Speaking about her upcoming stint on the show, she said: “I was speechless with excitement at being asked to join Strictly – and that’s very rare for me.
“50 years ago, I got a bronze medal for Scottish Highland Dancing and it feels about time to return to dancing.
“I couldn’t be in better hands with the Strictly team and I’m going to throw myself into the challenge. Watch out!”
