He made headlines in 2016 after walking off The Morning Show- seemingly forgetting that the program was being recorded live.
And Jordan Barrett, 21, made a fateful return to the set of Channel Seven talk-show this week to poke fun at the awkward incident by staging another walk-off.
Appearing in an interview with presenters Kylie Gillies and Larry Emdur this Thursday, the Byron Bay native explained that the 2016 gaffe was all a ‘mistake’ and that he was nervous about re-emerging on Australian television as a result.
Where it all began! Jordan Barrett, 21, made a fateful return to The Morning Show this Thursday to poke fun at the awkward moment in 2016 when he walked off set mid-interview
During the interview, Larry said: ‘Here’s the thing that surprises us, you’re on the biggest runways in the world in front of the world’s media all of the time in the spotlight all the time.’
‘And yet you come on this little show and you seem a bit nervous, a bit fidgety. You’re spinning on the chair, you’re swearing like a criminal – what is it about Kylie that makes you nervous?’ he went on.
Bizarrely, world-famous model Jordan simply responded: ‘I just get nervous being on Australian TV I think’.

He sheepishly added: ‘Because maybe last time they told me that I walked off while it was live and that was all a mistake.’
Perhaps in an attempt to laugh off the tension, Larry went on to replay last year’s segment before asking Jordan to stage a similar exit this time around.
‘So we’re about to finish the interview so if you want to just walk off now and just keep up with what always do,’ Larry joked, prompting Jordan to play along.
Two times’ a charm! Perhaps in an attempt to laugh off the tension, Larry went on to replay last year’s segment before asking Jordan to stage a similar exit this time around
Back in 2016, Jordan raised eyebrows by denying that he had abruptly abandoned an interview with Larry and Kylie – despite the segment being broadcast to Australia live.
‘I actually didn’t walk off live television,’ he told Daily Mail Australia just days after the faux pas hit screens.
Turning to a male pal that joined him for the interview, Jordan snapped: ‘Don’t say anything’.
