SMOKEY Robinson attempted to wish a woman a "happy Hanukkah," but unfortunately things didn't go as planned thanks to a hilarious mispronunciation.
The 80-year-old is known as Motown legend with various hits to his name.
It all kicked off when a man name Jeff Jacobson took to Twitter and wrote: "My mom grew up on the same street as Smokey Robinson in Detroit.
"So for Chanukah, I wanted to reunite them via @Cameo. But the video takes a strange twist.
Jeff then shared the clip as the entertainer starts off: "Hey Margo, how you doing? Surprise, surprise. This is Smokey Robinson."
After Smokey tells Margo that he's been told she used to live across the street from him, he proceeds to wish her a "Happy Chanukah." Unfortunately, Smokey complete botches the pronunciation.
He said: "I have no idea what Chanukah is, but happy Canukah, because they said so.
"Anyways, God bless you, babe, and enjoy Chanukah!"
People were loving the video as one person wrote: "He seems like a really nice man. It's adorable… It's even more gold that he mispronounced Chanukah."
While another added: "This is absolutely delightful. That someone like Smokey Robinson would take the time to do this & put himself out there is a testament to what a wonderful man he is."
The legendary performer charges $350 on Cameo for a personalized clip.
Aside from sending people fun messages, Smokey is one of the faces of Motown music as he was the founder and the lead of the group The Miracles.
Smokey was in The Miracles from 1995 to 1972.
He would kick off his solo career the following year.
