Dancing With The Stars Ireland contestant Hughie Maughan says he's received death threats over his appearance on Sunday's show.

Internet users were quick to point out how he looked like Ross from Friends in the episode where he had a tanning accident.

RTE says the production team tried to dissuade Hughie from putting on so much tan be he wouldn't listen.

Now Hughie's told independent.ie he's facing a massive Twitter backlash after the story was picked up in the states.

Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen labelled the 21 year old 'Jackhole of the Day' for his tanning mishap.

One of the guests on the show, Real Housewives of Atlanta star Porsja Williams reacted to a photo of the incident saying "Is he in black face? Jeez"

It's led to angry American twitter users messaging Hughie. 

"It's not just one. There's loads of them from a group of people tweeting things, death threats, and how I should be attacked with a machete."
