Australia's 'Prime Minister' makes a surprise cameo on Lego Masters

On Sunday's episode of Lego Masters, Michael 'Wippa' Wipfli pranked the contestants with a hilarious gag. 

The host and comedian walked out on stage dressed in a suit after co-star Hamish Blake introduced him as a 'very special guest.'

Hamish joked that Australia's 'prime minister' was on the way out, only for Wippa to emerge. 

The teams, who hail from Germany, the USA, France and Denmark, were none the wiser. 

'I was so surprised that we met the prime minister,' laughed Ida, who is a member of Team Denmark.

'I was like, "When am I ever going to meet the prime minister of Australia?"' she added. 

Hamish said the real Prime Minister Anthony Albanese couldn't make an appearance. 

The teams soon cottoned on that it was a joke when they noticed that Hamish was giggling through the prank. 

It comes after Channel Nine's highest paid star was revealed - and Lego Masters host Hamish Blake topped the list with his eye-watering seven figure salary.

The comedian, 41, is said to be earning a whopping $2million for hosting the reality show.

Lego Masters has had a change in format for the top-rating competition this year.

It features 'Australia' playing off against sides from the USA, Germany, Denmark and France. 

Season four sees international teams of two taking on an Australian duo for the prized Lego Masters trophy. 

Lego Masters also features judge Ryan 'The Brickman' McNaught.
