A New Zealand cabinet minister, Carmel Sepuloni, has been swept into the limelight after being embarrassed during a live interview by a child - her own!
The woman was doing a video interview with Radio Samoa when she was suddenly interrupted by her son, who entered the room waving a phallic-shaped carrot.
The minister for social development later confessed the child had apparently found the weirdly-shaped object among the groceries.
Sepuloni sent "big up's" to all parents who work from home and do parenting at the same time. The minister also said she would "never buy the odd shaped carrot pack again".
