Romanian pop star caught singing into wrong end of microphone on live TV

The hair was neatly coiffed and his T-shirt and waistcoat had been freshly pressed.

But this unfortunate pop singer gave himself away as a blatant lip-syncher within seconds by singing into the wrong end of the microphone on live TV.

The unnamed singer was appearing on Romanian music show 'Stele-sub-lupa' in a band called Jukebox.

Lead singer from Romanian pop band 'Jukebox' mimes through his appearance with the microphone upside down

Footage of his embarrassing error has become a huge hit on YouTube.
Happily unaware of his major faux pas, he continues to mime into the wrong end of the microphone while the female singers behind him dance and sing.
Male members of the band shuffle in the background as the well-groomed lead singer gestures and grins at the camera - unaware of the career suicide he is in the process of committing.
The band have just launched their first album of original material after having previously released two albums of covers of classic Romanian songs.
Despite last week's clanger the band are known for their live shows in their homeland.
