Jerry Springer will be remembered for his work as a daytime presenter - but he also demonstrated an impressive singing voice while on Irish television.
RTE viewers may remember the American presenter's appearance on a St Patrick's Day special of the Ray D'Arcy Show back in 2018. Jerry took to the stage with his rendition of the Elvis hit 'Can't Help Falling With You.'
It was confirmed yesterday that the 79-year-old had passed away at his home in Chicago following a brief illness. The broadcaster is most famous for his 27 years hosting 'The Jerry Springer Show', which became renowned for showing onstage arguments amongst guests in a sensationalist manner.

The video of Jerry's Elvis performance was uploaded to YouTube and has received attention following the news of his death. Many people praised the calibre of the presenter's singing in the comments section.
One person wrote: "If you closed your eyes, you'd think it was actually a recording of "The King' until you saw who it was."
A recent comment read: "Jerry was the coolest person on day time television. You will be missed."
The video is available to watch via Youtube.
