The Voice coach Olly Murs was blasted for his "outrageous" flirting with a The Voice contestant tonight.
Bethzienna returned to the competition after being voted through by the public to the semi-finals.
And Olly was clearly very glad to have her back, if his reaction after her performance with half-naked men was anything to go by.
He said: "I did tell Tom you should have stayed in the competition, hello!"
Olly then cheekily added: "If you ever need a naked man to…"
He put his hands in the air as he motioned pushing her up into the air and as everyone gasped, he quipped: "No, to do the dancing!"
But viewers were not impressed by his reaction
One commented: "I find it disgusting how Olly is looking at Bethzienna … although it’s clearly the effect they’re going for thevoiceUK."
While another remarked: "I think Olly *may* like Bethzienna a bit #TheVoiceUK."
A third remarked: "Olly is looking flustered #TheVoiceUK."
"Olly well fancies her #TheVoiceUK," another wrote.
Will.i.am was not quite so fond and brutally hit out at the "sexist" performance in awkward scenes during tonight's first live The Voice show.
Bethzienna was chosen to return to the semi-final this evening as a wildcard act after the Liveline Vote.
However, while coach Will praised her singing, he wasn't quite so impressed with her backing dancers.
The topless male performers held her up as she sang before letting her down and walking over to the coaches.
At the end of the performance, the half-naked dancers sat on the arms of the coaches' chairs.
Will made a face as they finally left and couldn't help but say something as he spoke about Bethzienna's performance.
"The only bit that made me feel uncomfortable when this naked dude got on my seat, do you know what I mean?" he said, prompting Jennifer Hudson to try and tap him on the arm.
He continued: "Like, why you gotta be all up on my seat though?"

Tom Jones joked that he got scared as J-Hud appeared to try and stop Will from saying anymore.
Will didn't listen and said: "Sexist, though. Cos only dudes can do that! Like girls can't do that, do you know what I mean?"
Neither Bethzienna nor host Emma Willis appeared to be impressed by his comments as he continued: "We're on TV, ladies and gentlemen! We just saw a lot of naked dudes…
