"Barack Obama repeatedly referred to George Osborne as &amp;quot;Jeffrey&amp;quot; at this week&amp;#039;s G8 Summit, apparently confusing his name with that of the &amp;#039;On The Wings of Love&amp;#039; soul singer. The chancellor was speaking about the complexities of tax avoidance when the US president interrupted three times to say that he agreed with &amp;quot;Jeffrey&amp;quot;, The Financial Times reports.   Obama apparently apologised after the presentation, having realised his mistake. The president told Osborne: &amp;quot;I&amp;#039;m sorry, man. I must have confused you with my favourite R&amp;amp;B singer.&amp;quot; Told about the mix-up, singer Jeffrey Osborne told Sky News: &amp;quot;I was really delighted, actually. I was really not aware that he was that much of a fan that he would call the chancellor Jeffrey Osborne. &amp;quot;Tell the Chancellor when I come over I will have to hook up with him and we will do a duet of &amp;#039;On The Wings Of Love&amp;#039;, or something.&amp;quot; Last September, Osborne was booed by large sections of the crowd when shown on the big screens at the London 2012 Paralympics. More recently, Conservative sources joked that the chancellor&amp;#039;s cat Freya was a foreign spy, after she started showing in the cabinet room, Foreign Office and near the Treasury.
