Nine star James Bracey has shared the bizarre moment Michael Bublé allegedly tried to throw him off during an interview by showing him racy photos of his wife.
The sports presenter, 41, was covering the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver when he sat down with the 50-year-old singer, he told Life in 5ive Podcast on Thursday.
Moments before their chat, during an ad break, James claimed Michael Googled bikini pictures of his then-girlfriend, now-wife, Luisana Lopilato.
‘I interviewed him in Vancouver… He sits down with me, he goes, “Can I borrow your laptop?” I’m like, “Yeah, sure, we’re in an ad break,”‘ James explained.
‘I’m thinking, “What’s going on here?” Anyway, he spins the laptop back around. He Google Imaged something and goes, “This is my missus. She’s a bikini model.”
‘And then he leaves the laptop in front of me for the whole interview.’

‘I’ve got his girlfriend in a bikini, 20 photos of her in front of me just to distract me from the interview,’ James continued.
‘That’s awesome,’ stunned host Mark ‘MG’ Geyer said.
‘That’s just one of those things you don’t expect,’ James added.
Michael has been married to Argentine actress and model Luisana, 38, since 2011.
The pair got engaged in late 2009, with Luisana being Michael’s fiancée at the time he allegedly showed bikini photos of her to interviewer James.
Michael and Luisana share four children — sons Noah, 12, Elias, nine, and daughters Vida, seven, and Cielo, three.
It’s not the only run-in a media personality claims to have had with the Feeling Good hitmaker.
Traitors star Gabby Windey accused Michael of a strange act during her stint on Dancing With The Stars US back in 2022.

Gabby, 34, opened up about her alleged encounter with the married singer when the pair crossed paths during his time as a guest judge on the hit show.
In an April episode of Bowen Yang and Matt Rogers’ podcast Las Culturistas, she said: ‘Michael Bublé is beyond dead to me.’
She went on to allege he ‘eye f***ed’ her when they met.
Gabby also noted this was ‘not the first, second, third or fourth time’ she had publicly talked ‘mad s***’ and addressed her experience with the singer.
‘I will also scream it,’ the Bachelorette alum—who secretly tied the knot with her comedian girlfriend earlier this year—told the podcast co-hosts.
‘He, like, literally eye-f***ed me, looked me up and down, on the way to my trailer,’ she claimed.
Gabby also claimed to Cosmopolitan in March she ‘hated’ Michael because he ‘didn’t give me a perfect score’ during his time as a guest judge on the show.
Daily Mail has reached out to Michael’s representatives for comment.
