Alison Hammond delighted fans as she made a cameo in Stormzy’s new music video.
The This Morning presenter, 48, plays a therapist in the video for the 29-year-old’s single Toxic Trait, which also features the rapper Fredo.
In the scene, Alison says to Fredo: ‘I want you to tell me what your toxic traits are…’ to which he responds: ‘Listen, I’ve just got too many. I don’t even know where to start.’
Alison then went to tell him: ‘Well, just start at the beginning’, as Fredo continued: ‘I just feel like I don’t make things easy on myself, to be honest. Whether that’s big things like the company I keep or small things like… not using toenail clippers.’
Alison – who first shot to fame on Big Brother – then pulls a shocked face before writing notes in her notebook.

Stormzy was in a high profile relationship with Love Island host Maya Jama for four years until their split in August 2019.
He has since been romantically linked to Swedish model Yasmine Aisha Khalifa Holmgren, and singers Alexandra Burke and Jorja Smith, with rumours circulating that he had rekindled things with Maya last year.
However, the pair brushed off the rumours and in September 2022, Stormzy told Louis Theroux that he was single and ‘doesn’t really’ date.
Explaining the struggle of dating in the public eye, he said: ‘Anytime I’ve had a date, we’ve gotta go through a back door at the restaurant because people are gonna blow the flipping poor girl’s life.’
He carried on: ‘I’m still trying to figure it out. I always say I’ll just wait for God innit. I’ll just wait for God to present me with my situation and my woman and my family.
‘I’m all out of ideas. Even the idea of dating for me is a new thing. I didn’t date before I met my ex.’
Meanwhile Alison shocked This Morning viewers by declaring she was single in March just weeks after it was reported she and her landscape gardener boyfriend Ben Hawkins were ‘engaged’.
She slipped up on her relationship status when she exclaimed: ‘well I am single!’ while discussing the new Love Island spin-off show with co-host Dermot O’Leary.

The comments came after West Midlands Police told MailOnline that a man had been bailed following his arrest on suspicion of blackmail.
Alison allegedly told pals she handed over thousands of pounds and a car to a former friend who threatened to leak false details about her private life.
The force confirmed it had arrested a 36-year-old man from Warwickshire on suspicion of blackmail against a woman in her 40s.
The man was questioned by police and released on conditional bail, it added.
West Midlands Police said on Sunday they ‘take reports of this kind very seriously’ and enquiries were ‘progressing swiftly’.
According to The Sun, the former Big Brother contestant also handed over a BMW worth £5,000.
It’s claimed the presenter reported the incident to police last week, with a colleague telling the publication Hammond revealed she had ‘reached the end’.
She allegedly showed officers from the force messages she had received from the man.
It is claimed the man took advantage of Alison’s kind nature and they forged an unlikely friendship despite his issues with drugs.
Alison reportedly told her friend that he sprung the demands on her out of the blue after she had been happy to try and help him and spend money on him.
It is claimed she attempted to cut ties with him a number of times but he managed to make his way back into her life.
Things reached boiling point for Alison when she is said to have told a colleague last week: ‘He sent me a message stating that if I didn’t give him £3,500 he would ruin me.
‘I was flabbergasted. I’m still in shock. To have a friend seeking to blackmail and extort me is just heartbreaking. I had to realise I’d reached the end and go to the police.’
