On meeting Victoria and David Beckham: Victoria pointed to her necklace and said '?1.5 million'. David introduced himself. I was staring at his wife's tits and shouting 'how much?!
The BBC will always be attacked by whoever is in government. It is that George Bush thing of 'If you're not with us you are against us.'
It's amazing how I can just ramble on for hours, isn't it? And so unentertaining or uninteresting. But I can ramble on for hours. It's a sort of terrible gift, isn't it?
I bet Maurice Gibb's heart monitor was singing the tune of Stayin' Alive.
A good rule to remember for life is that when it comes to plastic surgery and sushi, never be attracted by a bargain.
I don't think you should have to try to be nice, I think most people are nice. I think being cheerful and nice is just a politeness.
My mobile rang around lunchtime one day, and it was George Michael. He wanted to come in on Friday. We were like, 'okay, if that's what you want'. And he was a very good guest. That's a real exception to the rule.
The only time I took Ecstacy was years and years ago. It was absolutely amazing.

If it was possible for me to adopt, I probably would, but no one's going to let me adopt.
I've so exceeded what I ever wanted to do.
I'm actually quite self-sufficient, so it might look as if there isn't room for anyone in my life. That isn't entirely the case.
All my day is spent dealing with other people. When I come home I like it to be empty. The presence of others in my house kind of annoys me. I love coming home and shutting the doors. I feel brain dead. I'm relatively available, but not to live with.
