The Motown giants appeared on the ITV show amid the UK leg of their latest tour as well as their highly-anticipated performance at next weekend’s Glastonbury Festival.
While panelists Andrea McLean, Nadia Sawalha, Stacey Solomon and Linda Robson were awe-struck by their “very special” guests, viewers branded the troupe “divas” for wearing their sunglasses inside.
“Wearing sunglasses indoors, just rude,” sighed one audience member, as another agreed: “Take your sunglasses off you arrogant b******s #rude #LooseWomen.”
A third hissed: “Idk I just think it’s rude to be indoors having an interview and wearing sunglasses.”
“Can’t believe they’ve sat through that whole interview with their shades on #jacksons #loosewomen,” gasped another, which was followed by: “I wish it was @The_Real_JSP Interviewing today! Don’t care who you are…so rude to keep your glasses on! #LooseWomen.”
This particularly bewildered audience member asked: “Are they all blind?”
What’s more, Loose Women underwent a huge makeover especially for band’s interview, ditching their signature table and stools.
“This is nice, isn’t it? For Friday, we’ve got sofas,” enthused Andrea. “I thought we’d get ourselves nice and comfy.
“There is a reason we’ve got sofas – it’s because we have got some living legends in the house today.”
But viewers were deeply unimpressed and didn’t hesitate to vent their frustration on Twitter, with one fuming: “I’m not liking these sofas on @loosewomen,” snapped one. “Bring back the table and chairs, this is not This Morning! #LooseWomen.”
Loose Women airs weekdays at 12.30pm on ITV.
