It comes after Tame Impala frontman Kevin Parker revealed that his experience performing with The Wiggles was “weird.”

Kevin, best known for his indie songs that hit the charts, took the stage with The Wiggles at their concert in Perth in April.

“Wiggles’ performance was probably the weirdest thing I’ve done on stage; not because I didn’t feel comfortable, but because it really was such a ‘How the hell did I get here?’ moments,” the 36-year-old told The Herald Sun on Saturday.

“The kids were easy to entertain, it was more the parents who said, ‘Is that the Tame Impala guy? What the hell is he doing?” he added.

Kevin said he was afraid his young daughter, Peach, would wonder ‘Wait, is Daddy a Wiggle?’

The kids band was performing at the RAC Arena as part of their Fruit Salad TV Big Show tour when the singer jumped on stage.

Kevin wore the group’s iconic blue skivvy when he performed Tame Impala’s Elephant alongside Purple Wiggle Lachy Gillespie.
