Sir Tom Jones reportedly shouted "Who the f**k is that?" at Jeremy Kyle.
The ‘Voice’ judge is said to have scared off the ‘Jeremy Kyle Show’ host backstage after filming the BBC One singing competition, leaving the 49-year-old presenter to retreat to his dressing room.
Sir Tom is said to have been chatting loudly to fellow judge Ricky Wilson when Jeremy stuck his head out of his door to ask whoever was disturbing him to keep the noise down.
However, Jones is said to have pointed at him and bellowed: "Who the f**k is that?"
A source shared: "Tom and Ricky has been filming some scenes and were walking along backstage having a bit of a laugh and a joke.
"Tom’s a larger-than-life character. He’s got a booming voice and a very distinctive laugh.
"He was obviously making a bit of a racket and he disturbed Jeremy Kyle, who was trying to get a bit of peace and quiet backstage.
"When he opened the door, he had a foul look on his face and was obviously going to have a right go. But he was completely taken aback when he realised he was about to shout at Tom Jones."
The 74-year-old legend is said to have had no idea who Jeremy was during the incident at Manchester’s Media City, where both ‘The Voice’ and ‘The Jeremy Kyle Show’ are filmed.
The source added to The Sun newspaper: "Jeremy is quite a big noise in British TV and almost everyone would know who he was. But when it comes to superstardom, he’s not in the same league as Tom Jones.
"Rather than row, he turned and scuttled back into his dressing room. Tom and Ricky just carried on as though nothing happened."
