Guy Sebastian has shown his “true colours” in a hilarious staged interview with his wife, Jules Sebastian.

On Jules’ YouTube talk show Tea with Jules the singer parodied himself by appearing rude, arrogant and dismissive of his wife of seven years.

The interview started off with some light hostility when Guy complained of being tired.

“You’re so tired? I’m the one that’s been up since five o’clock with the kids today,” Jules retorted.

The stylist then asked her husband why he got rid of the signature “fro” that made him famous on Idol.

“Really? that’s your opening question?” he responded. “I’ve been asked that a million times.”

In an attempt to salvage the interview, Jules told Guy he “looked really good in real life”.

“Yeah all the time they [fans] say that ‘Oh you look skinnier in real life,'” he replied.

“But what they’re really saying is that you look fatter on TV,” Jules hit back.

It was at this point that Sebastian preceded to lose his cool, storming out of the interview and refusing to answer any more questions.

“Why are you saying that?” he demanded as he walked out.

“You emailed me questions last night and I said ‘yeah, sweet’ and none of these are those questions. I didn’t even want to do this in the first place.”

When a friend coaxed him back, Guy decided to hijack the interview.

“I’m going to ask the questions now,” he said.

“So Jules you’ve got nice chairs and flowers and cameras and you’ve got your own little show… how come now you’re such a cow?”

“I took time out of my schedule today and now you’re ripping me to shreds.”

The interview ended with the pair erupting in laughter, revealing the whole interview to be a send-up.
