  • Jeenie Little's been dressing up as a woman for years!!!! LMFAO!!!

  • Gee who would have thought such a perverted freak would end up in jail - and I don't mean Gunston.

  • The genius of Gunston at work. Step out the way Georgie boy cause you look like a schmuck.

  • Genius at work. Step out the way Georgie boy cause you look like a schmuck.

  • Georgie looks a bit pissed there.... lol

  • George simply didn't want to play along and that doesn't make him a dick that makes him have a different approach of humor than other people. He is serious about things but Boy probably took it as a fool was coming up to him lol. I thought a few replies he said were pretty funny and sarcastic!

  • He said "Boy" is my sex and "George" is my name. LoL

  • I love how much of a smart arse he is!!!

  • George seems a bit of a prick.!

  • Boy George is totally out of his element here. He likes to think he is so open-minded and progressive, but here he reveals himself to be humorless and mean-spirited. "Oh, it's Mr. Plaster Man. I Can't Cope... give it to me and I'll give it right back." I'm not really sure what he's got against the interviewer and his comic persona. I am confused about that, but George was a dick.

  • @geupelboi I couldn't agree more with what you posted here. At the time it was a case of Gunston pushing this so called "progressive thinking" chaps buttons and Boy George comes off as prickly, judgemental and humourless. Time has also proven that Boy George was a total zero and a one time 1980s success. BG noughts me.

  • Ok, Flinklehurst, thanks for your reply and thank you for explaining the term "thick skin", I actually had interpreted it as "uneducated" or "rude". I think we're in agreement. Regards.

  • thenightwatchman3: In fact it's all a matter of point of view. I love Boy George work and I am defending my idol, it is legitimate, isn't it?

    I'm sorry for the broken text, this is because there is limit to the characters. Regards.

  • @1anabatista What you are missing, and perhaps it's because English isn't your first language, is that an important part of the comedy lies in self-effacement. The character of Norman Gunston is supposed to be ridiculous-- look at his response when Boy George asks whether he would say a priest wears a dress, for instance. He's not ridiculing the interviewee, he's playing a parody. Boy George was sensitive and took it the wrong way.

    Also, "thick skinned" means "not easily offended."

  • thenightwatchman3: I think that Boy George did was defend his image, such as Antonio Fagundes, that is legitimate and unquestionable, this because I did not accept when they called him thick skin. Some people like to have fun making devalued the other one, and some people think that this is a lack of respect for the other, like me. I believe you can be funny without being disrespectful, as Jô Soares, a Brazilian great interviewer, and many others around the world.

  • thenightwatchman3: Antonio Fagundes, a brazilien actor, when approached by interviewers Panic on TV had a great presence of mind and reversed the game, making the interviewers like idiots because idiots is what they really are. Any artist who tries to attract viewers by devaluing the work of another artist deserves to be demoted.

  • thenightwatchman3: I understand what you are defending about Norman Gunston. In Brazil we have a program that follows the same line of Gary McDonald work, called Panic on TV, aired by MTV, I hate it. Characters interviewers who ridicule celebrities to make the audience laugh. This profile of comedy can make you laugh, but is far from being a commendable work, and we can not deny to respondent the right to defend itself in front of this midia low quality.

  • Even young Leif Garrett got the joke and played along. Leif's interview is very funny.

  • "Who's Jeannie Little? I've never heard of her." Those UK queens are so 'up' on camp. What next, Julian Clary mocking Elisabeth Kirkby's dress sense?

  • Georgie Boy and his cohorts were so up themselves, that they failed to recognise that they were being interviewed by possibly one of the sharpest comic minds of the 20th century. Gary M'cDonald was way ahead of everyone at this time with his Norman Gunston character... even Mick Jagger didn't get it.

  • @yellingelk No but Muhammed Ali did and was piss funny in the interview, Ali played along with him and it was very funny. A good illustration of how sharp Ali was as this is good illustration of how dopey this poofter was.

  • It is an absurd to call Boy of thick skin, when he was so polite in front of this clown interviewer. If Boy was not a gentleman, he would have gone away and would let Norman talking to himself. Foolish man. I love Boy George day-by-day, more and more.

  • @1anabatista Norman Gunston is supposed to be a joke. He's a character. Meaning he is acting!! This actor is Gary McDonald who you may know from Mother and Son. If not look him up. It's like Austin Powers played by Mike Myers. He is supposed to be stupid!! I can't believe so many of you take this so serious. Also George is not being that much of a gentleman. He was told what was going to happen before hand and agreed to it for money like all the other celebs that Norman interviews. So lighten up

  • The final question is a ripper!!!

  • What is all over his face?

  • That's not thick skin. That's professionalism just barely restraining extreme sensitivity.

  • Norman Gunston is a comic genius. This interviews fails and falls flat, for sure, but only because Georgie Boy can't play along

  • Boy george is so damn cute!!! I bet he wanted to punch that guy.

  • I like their hair.... o.o

  • 5:06 "...I'm sorry that his first assignment was with the Boy George people because I guess th........" (ey were a bunch of c###s)?

  • He's so cute (George, I mean) The interviewer is so goofy he's funny

  • Comment removed

  • I saw a vid where he said I hate the press but now he loves it

  • I thought his first name was boy too I mean If people r named guy why not boy

  • Boy looks annoyed.

  • lol at most of the comments. Norman Gunston isn't hating on Boy George. He usually says these things and MOST celebrities have a laugh. Too bad Boy George was too uptight and ruined the interview.

  • I really admire Boy George's personality a lot.

    And the interviewer? A hater, he wishes he looked as good as George. lmao

  • @CommentaryChick The interviewer is a comedian and a self depreciating one at that. I don't mind this clip, but if there is any problem, it is that George is taking himself to seriously, has put the defences up and is too prickly. For comparison, take a look at Gunston interviewing Frank Zappa or Sally Struthers.

  • Classic interview....Thanks for sharing

  • Norman you retard leave boy george alone ppl as ugly as u make me cry D:

  • The interviewer (a satirical character created by a comedian) was known in Australia, so Boy George might not have known what was going on. Boy George is not an "uptight fag" as a previous poster said. We see his wit in other interviews. Think about it: he was under endless scrutiny for being himself. If he had been alerted to the comic nature of the interview, his response might have been positive. Appreciate the fact that he can defend himself with wit and composure concerning the situation.

  • @Lily0408 Norman Gunston is a character created by Australian comedian Gary Mcdonald. He is supposed to be a bad interviewer and what we call a dag. Boy George was just taking himself far too seriously. Check out the interview Norman did with Julian Clary Julian had fun with it like he was supposed to

  • Fuck, how can they keep showing this mother fucker videos? Norman's fucking ugly face is disgusting. For goodness sake, what the fuck does he have on his ugly fucking face? It looks fucking disgusting!

  • Brilliant to resurrect Norman under the cover of Willese program. Lets face the cold cream of truth. Boy G and the rest Culture club clearly don't have a clue. The more I watch this and read through the comments the more I laugh.

  • he looks cute :)

  • LOL are you a poofter?

  • It's Angie Reed! Lol.

  • princess margaret can suck a fat one!!!

  • love his last question...r u a poofter??!

  • I LOVE how bitchy and composed George was!

  • He is NOT FUNNY AT ALL. 

  • Boy George must have run out of smack for this "interview"

  • @guineapiggyman yeah, i saw that news but i thought that was a lie, you know, gossip...

  • Why all the australians have the same face??

  • mike wilisie represents all thats wrong in this world..

    what a prick!!!

  • Is boy george gay?? Just wondering

  • @Vladmirr456 yes lol. thats why hes been arrested for beating up male prostitutes he hires, almost every few weeks

  • Caustic humor.... Hehehehe awesome

  • In that situation it would be pretty hard to come across as a bigger fool than the character of Gunston - but Boy George managed it. What a tool.

  • i don't wear dresses, but i wear big gay ribbons in my hair!

  • Norman sounds like a right cunt.

    I love you Boy George <3

  • @FrankNFurter1000 haha george was being uptight bout the whole thing other celebs had fun with him n made it all funny... boy george is just an uptight fag haha get over yaself boy george jezzzzz

  • @FrankNFurter1000

    And OMG that is the WORST comb over ive EVER seen....

  • boy is my sex....george is my name...

  • Norman usually has fun and uplifting interviews but this one is just awkward.

  • Boy George usually has a sense of humour but here he seems to be on the defensive ..

    I wonder if that's because at this point in his career he wasn't officially out as Gay. I would imagine the record company probably would have advised him not to disclose that fact, rather stick to the de facto bisexual angle for as long as possible

    Note, when the 'puffter' question is posed the Culture Club management team close the interview and George disappears

    Today George would revel in such a question

  • If i was Norman i would shut up George look like he about to kill him.

  • George is sooo mean lol.

  • George is reminding me a bit of David Brent here.

  • I love you Boy!

  • "i dont wear dresses.. for the fiftythousandth time...:)"

  • any crap you'll get it back

    haha

  • wasnt George aware that the character of Norman was an act? it seemed like he was taking it all seriously...lol....

  • Plasterface is so goofy & silly, that it's funny

  • muchas gracias por escribirme sobre lo que decia el video,perdon por demorarme tanto en verlo,gracias muchas gracias,como ves siempre paso a ver los videos que me encantan,..un beso y un abrazo.

  • ..and racist homophobic grandparents from outback oz were larfing so hard..

    everyone else i think was commending boygeorge for not boycotting oz for good..

  • Comment removed

  • Norman Guston was trying to make us laugh about it? Oh... Well, I'm not laughing.

  • Boy georgie's bum juice! i bet ya it purely stinks like a gay brothel, filled with sponk!

  • Boy George seems like he has a carrot up his ass. Where is Culture Club now?  Defunct?

  • BOY GEORGE RULES SO ANYBODY WHO SAYS SOMETHING BAD ABOUT HIM I REPORT EM 20 TIMES NO LIE I ALREADY DONE IT TO 15 PEOPLE !

  • Ha non cest à 5:00

  • Haha, rire de cochon 5:01 =P

  • Brilliant boy George? A true genius? Someone who imprisons young men and beats them with a chain. And you call him/her "brilliant" and a "genius?" You must be joking. He's scum and filth, and Norman Gunston should have made more fun of the faggot.

  • @ManFromMelbourne

    Come on you PUSSY ... is that the best you can do?

    Had Boy George been to court before the interview? NOOOOOOO

    What happens AFTER this interview is not my fault

  • George you are a MAN with BALLS and INTEGRITY... A true GENIOUS.

  • boy george is just so wanting to be controversial that he's missing the humour. fail.

  • ha ha boy george is shitting himself every time norman starts another question

  • Boy George comes across as an idiot here. No sense of humour, hard to believe he's English...

  • Boy George, what a douche.

  • ....george is so beautiful inside and out...so georgous!....love you soooo much!

  • Norman Gunston, is he supposed to be funny or is it australian humor?

  • @stockholmboy trolling is a art

  • @youknuckle You mean: listening, is an art? And with that you mean .............. what??

  • Boy George is 20 steps ahead of this guy. He's bored by the obtuse attempts to hijack him. He could have skewered this guy in his sleep.

  • is he a gay person?

  • he kisses man mouths lol.ill how nasty,why he soooo gay

  • How dumb is George? Most celebs worked it out straight away, George still hasn't worked it out at the end.

  • @spoddie

    Work out what? That Gunston is fucking stupid !? DON'T underestimate Mr. George Alan O'Dowd

  • @MichaelinDenmark

    Apparently the only things more stupid than Mr. George Alan O'Dowd is Mr. George Alan O'Dowd's fans and especially stupid rocks. Every sentient being in the universe knows Norman Gunston is a character played by an actor, even Mick Jagger off his face on drugs worked that one out and helped Norman search under the bed for Keith's drugs. But this was beyond Georgie's limited abilities.

  • @spoddie

    You are trying WAY too hard Spoddie. We ALL know that the untalented Norman Gunston is a character. The problem is, that he is a very untalented and very unfunny character/actor. So save your breath and tell that to Mr. Norman Gunston

  • @MichaelinDenmark So you were just pretending to be stupid, like Garry MacDonald was pretending to be stupid, and George ... well let's not get carried away here.

    Georgie Boy didn't get it. Most of his fans didn't get it. And you certainly didn't get it.

  • @spoddie

    You are possibly more stupid than Mr. Gunston !!! Wow --- I feel sorry for you!

  • @MichaelinDenmark ... and Georgie Boy solves quadratic equations while he is searching for a cure for cancer.

    Repeating my comments as if they were your own just shows how pathetic you are, just like all the other Gerogie fan boys.

    It's too much to expect an original thought from you lot.

  • @spoddie

    You know you are wrong. Your aggressive behaviour proves it. Discussing with you is like stepping in a dog shit - it takes a long time to get rid of it.

  • @MichaelinDenmark Aggressive behaviour? It was you who started using cusswords when you're hero was slighted. It's quite obvious Georgie Boy never understood what was going on, and most of the comments here show the same thing.

    If you wanted a discussion then you should have made a better start.

  • @spoddie Please don't generalize like that. It's not very kind. :)

  • @MichaelinDenmark its an ACT you pillow biting monkey boy!

  • @MichaelinDenmark pillow biting monkey boy, its an act!!!

  • @yootmannt

    You might think so --- but it ISN'T. And there IS another interview to prove it. Look for it !!! Boy George is being interviewed by an Australian audience including some very young kids.

  • @MichaelinDenmark you are a pillow biter. get a sense of humour and laugh. Pillow biter.

  • @yootmannt

    That's exactly the problem. I cannot laugh at Norman Gunston because he is utterly braindead. BUT give me the pillow, and I will cover Mr. Gunston's face with it, til he doesn't talk anymore.

  • @MichaelinDenmark thats the whole IDEA pilow biter!!! He is the worlds most anxious and nervous interviewer!!! Thats the WHOLE IDEA!!!

    You have heard of Ali G? Borat? Same thing pillow biting moron!

    I guess pillow biting Kiddie fiddilers like you and Georgie Boy dont understand that though...

  • @yootmannt

    THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THAT NORMAN GUNSTON is NOT FUNNY

  • @MichaelinDenmark your mums not funny but we all still laugh at her...

  • @yootmannt

    NOW that was funny ... absolutely hilariously funny. Watch out Mr. Gunston ... your rival is here !!!

  • @MichaelinDenmark What are you talking about? He's hilarious!!

  • @MichaelinDenmark Now THAT would make an entertaining clip!

  • "Any Crap, You'll get it back" LOL! I love George! He is beautiful. Who is this Norman guy? He full of shit it seems. He supposed to be a Comedian, because he wasn't funny at all. Seems like a dick, but George pulled it off and didn't take any crap <3

  • wtf is wrong with the interviewer's hair? and what language are they speaking? I didn't get the option of a translated version?

  • @Aikidogirl100 you can also respond here if you wish!! thank you

  • man i wanted to hear wot the guy at the end had to say

  • Boy George is so uptight and doesn't have fun with Norman like the other celebrities.

  • @MunisAwesome -Agreed. I think Boy George fails miserably here. Sally Struthers, Cheech and Chong and Frank Zappa were the great ones. Even Warren Beatty goes along for the ride a bit. Not so this one. Way too pretentious!

  • Comment removed

  • @MunisAwesome

    The problem is that the VERY unintelligent Norman Gunston insulted BRILLIANT Boy George

  • @MichaelinDenmark He was trying to make a joke out of it. A lot of people he interviewed knew Norman was just joking around and then there are arrogant people like Norman Gunston who clearly are very uptight.

  • @MunisAwesome

    We agree .. Norman Gunston is VERY UPTIGHT

  • @MichaelinDenmark I ment Boy George, sorry about that mistake. But the fact that you said Norman Gunston is uptight which I hope your joking... But if you not then you clearly don't know what up tight means. And Boy George has been arrogant and uptight for years, he has even shown to be violent too. He's a great musician, he just needs to get his head out of his arse instead of shoving it up further.

  • @MunisAwesome he has more talent than this interveiwer

  • Funny all the Americans on here saying how disgusting and rude Norman Gunston is. Norman Gunston is a fictitious character played by comedian and actor Gary McDonald. He did satirical interviews with celebrities, most of the visiting celebrities were forewarned about him, which is why Boy George said "Oh no, the plaster man, I can't cope". Boy George knew it was satire and not a proper interview. See his interview with Mick Jagger.

  • Boy George very intelligent and sharp but no sense of play, he probably copped a lot of shit and learn't how to give it back, did he not realize Norman was on his side.

  • Such a beautiful face, such cute hands!! I am falling in love.!

  • @jonilimjw I don't see it personally, I get kinda put off by his shiny bald head and whispy strips of hair. Makes me feel sick. Like his suit though 

  • @mistersmith6000 Ermm... I was talking about George. Not this Norman Gunston. XD

  • that bold guy is an idiot...

  • @Thejr2137 he is quite bold isn't he.

    but, i think you might have meant bald, misspelt it and also not realised that this is satire so you're calling a fictitious character an idiot.. points for trying though.

  • @leyshjonoe thanks for correcting me... i just don't like norman, that's all

  • everyones hair in this video BLOWS!

  • What is with that interviewer! He must be joking or pretending or something! :D And Boy George is a legend!

  • @TonyTonyChopper93 The ORIGINAL Ali G!!

  • @TonyTonyChopper93 ... Norman Gunston is a comedy character :)

  • At 3:49 Boy George looks sad... :(

    But the interviewer makes some of the most funniest facial expressions i have ever seen! XD

  • Withering look from George at 3:05.

  • Jeanie Little's been dressing up as a woman for years! ROFL

  • hmm. that guy was s dick.

  • would you call a priest a transvestite? haha love george

  • And,..are you a poofter? Ha ha ha ha ha ! George must have been delusional to think that anyone would take him seriously dressed the way he did. No one gave a rat's arse whether he was gay or not it wasn't the issue. The ridiculous getup was what people laughed at. Nit wit! Of course later on he started to look and sound pretty cool.

  • He looks mad scary and he looks like he might kill someone in an eerie way.

  • the dude thts interviewing him is a dick he shouldnt be so stupid

  • @zoeann2009 He's taking the piss but Boy George is being to defensive to get it.

    He fooled a lot of people for quite a while before they realised that it was satire, not to be taken seriously. All in fun.

  • this is a bit embarrassing as entertainment. It supposed to be laughable and silly but its like George is just rebounding all these silly comments. The guy is failing so bad. George is a pretty smart guy, and pretty god damn serious. He has some integrity.

    I mean this interview would work well with Shakira or Britney or Katie perry. But Someone with some dignity would just act like this.

  • @strunway Bullshit. He just couldn't handle a piss-taking interview. Which for a pom, is a bit shameful, when you consider the similarities in English and Australian humor. My respect for that pouncy prat BOY george has just plumeted. What an uptight twat.! Go Norm! wish I could have seen the rest of the clip tho.

  • @strunway norman mmight be nervous or confused

  • What does Norman say at 3:07?? "You didn't just do that because you........from Brooke Shields"

  • @DpMiKaSCA he said "You didn't just do that because you are on the rebound from Brook Shields"

  • @Newbell2 It is known that Boy George idolized & tried to look like Brooke shields, who at this time was a huge model & on the cover of almost every fashion magazine. Notice the Brook Shields eyebrows LOL

  • i love it, perhaps it should be 'girl george' i wonder why he's got a big wig with a bow but seems so defensive about his mysterious sexuality

  • Too funny- B.G. is totally unflappable in the face of this strange man.

  • is this interview for serious?!

    if so then i wouldnt blame george for punching that guy in the face!

    does he fuking mind??

  • @Lollyissh Of course it isn't Norman is taking the piss

  • this norman bloke is insane.

  • Norman Gunston is being a total arsehole here... Insulting someone over and over is not a funny interview. Are you a poofter?! Fuck off.

  • that interviewers hair is it like....a few hair gelled forward O__O

  • George just doesn't get the joke of Norman. He's on the defense from the start. "I never wear dresses!" What a load of bull, he was never out of them.

  • I remember when this guy interviewed Kiss shortly after Eric Carr joined the band, and Eric tore him a new one! To see the tables turn on the interviewer like that -- it was classic!

  • Ya gotta remember, George "insulted" Norman first, he called him plaster man. Norman just dished it back to him. If you can dish it out, you should be able to take it. And if George is supposedly so proud of his image then he wouldn't feel uncomfortable about norman's questions

  • @ManFromMelbourne True he should not have said plaster man because all norman said was hi.

  • Of course you are

  • Eyes to die for ? Yes, Norm can be rivetting
