Guy Sebastian just can’t catch a break!

After copping backlash galore for how he handled his role as ‘coach’ on The Voice Australia, the series one Australian Idol winner is now receiving criticism online for his lacklustre performance at the State Of Origin grand final last night.

Guy was the pre-game entertainment for game three of the legendary Aussie sporting event and chose to sing his new song Choir for the packed out stadium in Sydney, but disgruntled fans were clearly frustrated with Guy’s song choice.
