Updated | By Stacey & J Sbu
Well, this was quite an alarming interview...
The UK's Deputy Prime Minister, Dr Thérèse Coffey, may have been interviewed, but another doctor was the star of the show.
Dr Dre unapologetically stole the show and took headlines after the deputy's phone rang with one of his famous songs as the alarm.
Watch the action happen here:

Hundreds took to social media shortly after, criticising Coffey's unprofessionalism and musical choices.
One user wrote: "A key component of managing health and social care is health promotion and the individual's responsibility for self - Coffey can't even do that!"

In the video, Dr Thérèse says, “You’re getting a bit of Dr Dre. It’s just an 8 o’clock alarm, sorry, let me just turn that off,” as the rapper’s 1999 hit with Snoop Dogg rang out.
Many have questioned why she had this alarm and what it symbolises.

On the other hand, some users provided clarity on the situation saying that rather than focusing on the health professional's private choices, look at her public ones.
There’s no need to discuss the way Thérèse Coffey looks, that she smokes cigars or that her phone alarm goes off to Dr Dre. Focus instead on how she voted against extending access to abortion care, wanted to lower Universal Credit and voted against same-sex marriage.

This controversy is still on the up and we doubt it will die anytime soon.
Well, Dr Dre did say that he needs a doctor... maybe Thérèse took these words to heart?
Stay tuned for more on her diehard love for Dr Dre.
