New ‘Top Gear’ presenter Paddy McGuinness has been mocked for wearing too much fake tan and make-up.
The ‘Take Me Out’ star – who will co-host the upcoming series of the motoring show with Andrew ‘Freddie’ Flintoff and Chris Harris – admitted he has a strict beauty regime to make sure that he looks immaculate on-screen.
Paddy is quoted by the Daily Star newspaper as saying : "I do have fake tan on my hands. I also have a bit of man make-up on.
"The lads rib me – but I’ve seen Chris using a bit of man make-up too. They love it really."
The upcoming series of the motoring show – which will air on BBC Two on Sunday (24.02.19) at 8pm – will be the last to feature the trio of Chris, Matt Le Blanc and Rory Reid together.
For the following season, Paddy, 45, and Freddie, 41, will step in after the exit of former ‘Friends’ actor, who has decided to leave the show so that he can spend more time with his 15-year-old daughter Marina in the US.
Meanwhile, Rory will be fronting the online edition of the show ‘Extra Gear’.
Paddy – who is best known for presenting game shows such ‘Take Me Out’ and ‘Benchmark’ – admitted that he actually failed his driving test first time around despite being set to host the motoring show.
He previously said: "I failed my driving test the first time, the instructor was a wrong ‘un, pencil tache, 60 years old. Fail.
"Second time, it was blazing hot and I was wearing Kevin Keegan short shorts, I had a female examiner and I passed."
