Justin Timberlake left Susanna Reid red-faced after describing her as a ‘super-hot grandma’.

The Good Morning Britain host couldn’t stop blushing after the A-lister delivered her the rather odd compliment on Wednesday’s show.

Despite the fact that 35-year-old Timberlake is only ten years younger than Reid, the GMB host actually voices the role of his grandmother in the film Trolls.

Seeing Reid for the first time, Timberlake seemed taken aback by her youthful appearance.

Via video link-up, the pop star and actor held up a photo of Reid, saying: “Good morning Britain! Susanna, look you’re here with us.

“You play my grandmother in Trolls and you look way too young to be a grandmother.”

He then moved the photo in front of his face, saying: “I have a super-hot grandma.”

His co-star Anna Kendrick added: “Your grandmother is a babe.”

Piers Morgan then proceeded to tease his co-star, saying: “Oh my God! That’s astonishing.

“That’s very cool Timberlake giving it the ‘you’re too young to be a grandmother’ – he’s right in your target range.”

A confused Reid replied: “What does that mean?”

Reid had a rather awkward interview with A-lister Jeremy Renner last week after he refused to take off his coat inside the studio.

As she introduced the weather, she turned to the actor and said: “Here is something you will be interested in - the weather forecast. You can decide whether you can take your coat off after that.”
