Ahh Ashton Irwin. His soul might be deep and meaningful, filling your Twitter feed with pearls of wisdom, but when it comes to celebrity news and knowing who\'s dating who, it turns out that he\'s about as useful as a computer made of strawberry laces. Delicious, but definitely not useful.

Ash stuck his foot RIGHT in it this week during an interview with Summer Fling breakfast show, when he accidentally started chatting about how amazing Good Charlotte\'s Benji Madden is to the presenter – who happens to be Benji\'s ex-fiance.

Benji\'s ex-gal Sophie Monk was definitely not too impressed when Ash described Benji and his new wife Cameron Diaz as "amazing people", and things only got more awkward as the conversation went on.

Chatting about the 5SOS and Good Charlotte bromance, Ashton innocently said: "The Madden brothers are beautiful… We spent Christmas with Lionel Richie and Cameron Diaz and just hung out."

"It was a really great time. They\'re interesting people and beautiful people, and it\'s cool we get to meet and hang out and hear stories of their success," Ashton went on, completely unaware. "They\'re amazing."

That\'s where things suddenly nose dived at a fairly sharp angle however, as host Sophie chimed in to interrupt and say: "Of all the people, it was those four people…"

Probably sensing that Ash was a bit confused by her tone, co-host Matt quickly asked whether he knew that Sophie "was engaged to the one who married Cameron Diaz, right?"

"Yes, you\'re rubbing it in my face on purpose, I feel it Ashton. I know what you\'re up to," Sophie joked. At least, we hope she was joking otherwise GAHD this is awkward.

It was all alright in the end though, as poor Ashed Potato quickly apologised and flashed that beautiful smile which could probably get him out of prison if he needed it to. "I didn\'t actually know that," he admitted. "That\'s my bad."

AGHHH, the awkward levels are almost too much to handle.
