It's been over a decade since Delta Goodrem was branded an 'unrhythmic white woman' by Marlon Wayans after he spotted her dancing at a Jay Z and Beyonce gig in America.
Now, Robert Irwin has been cut down to size
On Sunday, a social media user sparked outrage after branding Robert a 'random white boy' while reposting a video of the Wildlife Warrior, 22, dancing to Bad Bunny's Super Bowl half-time performance.
In the video, which was originally uploaded by Robert, the I'm A Celebrity host can be seen jiving in the front of a private booth as the Puerto Rican star belted out his hottest hits.
'Look at this random white boy who doesn't know a lick of Spanish living his best life to bad bunny with no problem,' Carlos captioned the clip, adding: 'Let's learn something from this!'
Naturally, plenty of users were outraged by the post, with one commenting: 'That's Robert Irwin, don't disrespect Crocodile Hunter's son!'

'Look at this random white boy who doesn't know a lick of Spanish living his best life to bad bunny with no problem,' Carlos captioned the clip, adding: 'Let's learn something from this!'
''Random white boy'? That's wildlife royalty. Put some respect on the Irwin name,' another agreed.
Yet another user added: 'Calling Robert Irwin a random white boy is the real tragedy here. Maybe learn something about who you're filming before you use them for your weird LinkedIn-style motivational post.'
Others defended the fact that Robert was enjoying music from a culture different to his own.
'So what? I listen to Bollywood / K-pop and have no clue what they saying but if [their music] is fire then it’s fire,' one user wrote.
'I love how he is enjoying every moment with having a language barrier,' someone else added.
Eventually, Carlos chimed in to clarify that they did in fact know who Robert was, and that they were actually a huge fan of the Irwin clan.
'Y'all i know it's Robert I was just making a point!' they insisted, adding: 'Like do not play with me and my love for this entire family.'
Robert was certainly in his element as he watched the New England Patriots play the Seattle Seahawks for the coveted title.

He looked effortlessly stylish in a slick unbuttoned black Super Bowl leather jacket, paired with a plain white tee and black pants.
Robert accessorised with stylish sunglasses and looked to be having the time of his life at the packed stadium.
Posting a flurry of selfies as he watched the game unfold, Robert wrote: 'G'Day NFL, how's it going? Wow, I just realised this is not only my first Super Bowl but this is my first NFL game.'
'All I can say is whoa! Are they all like this? This is crazy, let's go!'
Many of Robert's female fans quickly took to the comments section to share their appreciation over his 'hot' appearance and down-to-earth nature.
'So hot,' one fan gushed.
Meanwhile, Robert's Dancing With The Stars US partner Witney Carson cheekily wrote: 'LETS GO PATRIOTS'.
'Looking good Robert,' another person added and someone else chimed in with: 'Couldn't love this more!!'
