Hello, I'm Graham Norton.

0:00:020:00:03

Tonight on the show, we have two of the world's most beautiful pop stars.

0:00:030:00:07

That's why I haven't been able to get anywhere near wardrobe or make-up.

0:00:070:00:10

I have to get it done now.

0:00:100:00:12

That's better! Let's start the show!

0:00:150:00:17

This programme contains some strong language

0:00:220:00:28

Good evening, all.

0:00:370:00:40

Hello! You're very welcome.

0:00:400:00:43

Thank you, my glamorous stand-in, Clive.

0:00:430:00:45

Brother from a different mother.

0:00:450:00:49

Separated at birth - it was a mix-up.

0:00:490:00:52

We have a sparkling line-up, tonight.

0:00:520:00:55

Chatting and singing, the one and only Cheryl Cole is here.

0:00:550:00:58

Chart-topping superstar, Katy Perry is here!

0:01:000:01:03

And hilarious Geordie comedian Ross Noble is on the show.

0:01:050:01:08

I tell you, so that's two Geordies on the show tonight.

0:01:100:01:17

Cheryl is, of course,

0:01:170:01:18

the best-looking woman ever to come from Newcastle.

0:01:180:01:21

She really is.

0:01:210:01:22

Actually, to be honest, Ross is the best-looking man.

0:01:220:01:25

Ross is doing very well.

0:01:250:01:27

He's even had his own range of Ross Noble dolls.

0:01:270:01:30

He has.

0:01:300:01:31

I'm delighted to have Cheryl on the show.

0:01:340:01:36

She's just appeared at the Queen's Jubilee concert.

0:01:360:01:39

Very exciting.

0:01:390:01:41

Looking good, Cheryl!

0:01:410:01:43

What an outfit!

0:01:430:01:44

It certainly got a reaction from the Royal Box. It did.

0:01:440:01:47

Talking about amazing outfits,

0:01:500:01:51

I can't wait to see what Katy Perry's wearing tonight.

0:01:510:01:55

Ooh, such a fashion icon.

0:01:550:01:57

All the top names want to dress her.

0:01:570:01:59

Versace,

0:01:590:02:01

Dior,

0:02:010:02:03

Mr Kipling.

0:02:030:02:04

Delicious.

0:02:040:02:06

Here's Katy on stage during her recent tour.

0:02:060:02:09

It's a showbiz classic -

0:02:090:02:11

shell opens and out pops a vision of beauty, usually.

0:02:110:02:15

All looking forward to the football?

0:02:170:02:19

Any football fans in?

0:02:190:02:21

There are some, ladies and gentleman.

0:02:210:02:23

Yes, the Euros start tonight, I'm told.

0:02:230:02:26

England don't play France until Monday,

0:02:260:02:28

but Roy Hodgson has a good idea of how the game's going to go.

0:02:280:02:32

Wayne Rooney suspended, he spent the last few weeks on holiday.

0:02:350:02:39

The big fear is he could be out of condition.

0:02:390:02:43

He could.

0:02:430:02:44

Exciting time for Wayne.

0:02:450:02:47

It's the first international tournament

0:02:470:02:49

where he's been able show off his new hair transplant.

0:02:490:02:52

Talking of hair, did you see the news this week

0:02:570:02:59

that the Olympic torch was carried by Jedward?

0:02:590:03:01

I'm not making it up. That's them before the torch was lit.

0:03:010:03:06

I wonder what happens when you light a massive flame

0:03:060:03:08

next to that much hairspray?

0:03:080:03:09

It's Dead-ward! Let's get some guests on.

0:03:120:03:15

He's Newcastle's funniest comedian, That's why-aye love him.

0:03:150:03:18

It's Ross Noble.

0:03:180:03:20

-Hello, sir.

-Hello.

0:03:230:03:25

Lovely to see you. Have a seat.

0:03:250:03:26

Have a seat.

0:03:260:03:29

Hey, everyone, I might kiss a girl, it's Katy Perry!

0:03:290:03:32

Hello, lovely lady. Sit yourselves down.

0:03:380:03:41

She doesn't have to fight, fight, fight for my love, it's Cheryl Cole.

0:03:430:03:47

Hello, lovely lady.

0:03:500:03:53

Have a seat.

0:03:530:03:55

CHEERING AND WHISTLING

0:03:570:03:59

They're happy.

0:04:020:04:04

WHOOPING

0:04:040:04:08

I tell you what, I must be looking nice tonight,

0:04:080:04:10

cos they were still screaming when she came on.

0:04:100:04:13

She's really pretty.

0:04:130:04:16

-It's a lot of pop princess on one sofa. I'll tell you that.

-Thank you.

0:04:160:04:19

Before we get to other things, I just want to gossip, really,

0:04:210:04:24

because Cheryl did the Jubilee concert for the Queen.

0:04:240:04:27

I did.

0:04:270:04:29

Tell me the truth, you know at the end,

0:04:290:04:31

did you just elbow your way through the crowd, "Let me at her"?

0:04:310:04:35

-Do you know what was the strangest thing?

-Right there.

0:04:350:04:39

They stood us in line

0:04:390:04:40

and they brought the Queen on and she just wanted to stand next to me.

0:04:400:04:44

-She was drawn to you.

-That's what it was.

0:04:440:04:47

In that photo, there, is will.i.am just tweeting behind the Queen.

0:04:470:04:50

He's going, "I'm looking at the Queen's arse."

0:04:500:04:53

It's funny you should say that,

0:04:530:04:54

because I had to warn him as we walked onto stage,

0:04:540:04:57

he had the phone at the ready, I'm not even joking.

0:04:570:04:59

-Is that why you're looking like this?

-That is exactly why.

0:04:590:05:04

That is the moment of,

0:05:040:05:05

"Put that phone away, right now, before I kill you."

0:05:050:05:08

At least he didn't do that thing,

0:05:080:05:09

he could have gone up to Her Majesty and gone,

0:05:090:05:11

"Right, come on! Like that.

0:05:110:05:14

-"Get in, love. Get in."

-Really?

0:05:140:05:15

-I would have done it.

-You didn't see this.

0:05:150:05:17

When did you get here?

0:05:170:05:18

-I got here yesterday.

-So, you missed it?

0:05:180:05:20

I missed it by a day.

0:05:200:05:21

I was on the flight and they were doing a biography on the Queen

0:05:210:05:25

and the Jubilee,

0:05:250:05:27

so I watched it during dinner,

0:05:270:05:29

so I could be here and talk about things like this.

0:05:290:05:32

Get on YouTube and watch this highlight.

0:05:320:05:36

It was Grace Jones.

0:05:370:05:39

I let her borrow my dress.

0:05:390:05:41

-She's 64, isn't she?

-Wow!

0:05:410:05:44

She hula-hooped for four minutes while singing Slave To The Rhythm.

0:05:440:05:48

You know, she wasn't supposed to. She turned up just doing this.

0:05:480:05:52

The Queen had a hula-hoop and went,

0:05:520:05:54

"I'm going to throw it over her."

0:05:540:05:57

She thought she won a prize. She just threw it and Grace

0:05:570:06:00

just kept, "Go with it, go with it."

0:06:000:06:03

Were you asked to do it?

0:06:050:06:07

-No, I wasn't.

-In the papers here, we heard that Prince Harry...

0:06:070:06:10

Your papers never lie!

0:06:100:06:12

This is a nice thing, that Prince Harry asked for you by name.

0:06:120:06:17

-Prince Harry?

-Yeah.

-He's a hot ginger, isn't he?

0:06:170:06:19

-Well...

-Are you sure he asked for her to perform, though?

0:06:210:06:25

That we don't know. "Bring me Katy Perry."

0:06:250:06:27

No, no, it is Harry. He likes the ladies.

0:06:270:06:30

I love the monarchy.

0:06:300:06:31

-I'd be open to that.

-Well.

-What?

0:06:310:06:34

-You were chatting at the party, weren't you?

-You and Prince Harry?

0:06:340:06:38

Get off my man.

0:06:380:06:39

Princess Cheryl.

0:06:410:06:43

That would be the best wedding ever! Do it, go on.

0:06:460:06:50

Come on.

0:06:500:06:51

-I would consider Prince Harry.

-Do it, oh, do!

0:06:510:06:55

It would cheer people up so much.

0:06:550:06:58

Call me.

0:06:580:07:00

And if you don't like her, call me.

0:07:000:07:03

We've got a lot of ladies of song here

0:07:040:07:09

and Cheryl, you're performing later, very excited.

0:07:090:07:14

Katy Perry, obviously you are a one-woman hit factory.

0:07:140:07:17

You've broken records set by the Beatles, Michael Jackson,

0:07:170:07:21

it's phenomenal.

0:07:210:07:23

But tonight you come to us with a movie,

0:07:240:07:28

what you have made.

0:07:280:07:29

Yes. I have a movie coming out July 5th.

0:07:290:07:31

It's called Part Of Me,

0:07:310:07:33

Katy Perry In 3D.

0:07:330:07:35

Hold on those bra-size jokes.

0:07:350:07:38

It's excellent. It's not what I expected.

0:07:380:07:40

I thought it would be concert footage, a good time,

0:07:400:07:44

you singing your hits.

0:07:440:07:45

Katy's great! Fanfare! Yeah.

0:07:450:07:48

Messing around with dancers and make-up artists backstage.

0:07:480:07:50

It's not a part of you, it's all of you.

0:07:500:07:53

It's a lot. I still have some secrets, but not many.

0:07:530:07:57

You've seen the movie?

0:07:570:07:59

Yeah, I made the movie.

0:07:590:08:00

I had an idea in the winter of 2010,

0:08:010:08:05

right before I was about to go on this big world tour,

0:08:050:08:07

which I played here at the O2 - it was lovely, thank you -

0:08:070:08:10

and I felt like something important was coming in 2011,

0:08:100:08:16

so I asked two English boys from East London,

0:08:160:08:19

from London Fields, actually,

0:08:190:08:21

to come join me on the road,

0:08:210:08:23

and they were just like flies on the wall,

0:08:230:08:25

capturing everything throughout the whole year.

0:08:250:08:28

And I had no idea it was going to turn into this big deal of a movie

0:08:280:08:32

in 3D, but it did.

0:08:320:08:34

It's so exciting. I'm so excited for everyone to see it.

0:08:340:08:37

Might I warn you, you see a little bit of me without make-up

0:08:370:08:40

and you may not recognise me.

0:08:400:08:42

But, it's...

0:08:420:08:44

I look normal!

0:08:440:08:45

At end of that film, obviously, you're proud of the movie

0:08:450:08:48

and proud of the tour, but, like, some of it,

0:08:480:08:51

like the bits in Brazil,

0:08:510:08:53

it's like torture, watching some of it.

0:08:530:08:56

Poking with a stick to get you on stage.

0:08:560:08:58

It was hard to watch.

0:08:580:09:00

I love being on stage.

0:09:000:09:01

Even though I went through some pretty tough times last year,

0:09:010:09:06

I had to separate that because I know that my problems are mine

0:09:060:09:10

and they're not the audience's problems.

0:09:100:09:13

They're here to see a show and be entertained.

0:09:130:09:15

I put myself on that lift

0:09:150:09:17

and I smacked a smile on my face and I went up with my tits spinning.

0:09:170:09:21

It's really the use of 3D,

0:09:240:09:27

you get a true sense of what you experience.

0:09:270:09:29

Not everybody could make the show,

0:09:290:09:31

so I wanted everybody...

0:09:310:09:32

I took the best parts of the two-hour show

0:09:320:09:34

that I did last year and put them in the film.

0:09:340:09:36

People really feel like they're there. It's a great simulation.

0:09:360:09:40

Do the tits spin in 3D?

0:09:400:09:42

-They do?

-They do.

0:09:430:09:45

I'll put that in for you, Ross.

0:09:450:09:48

We have a clip. I should warn you. It is one without...

0:09:480:09:51

It's all right. It's time.

0:09:510:09:54

OK. Deep breaths, everyone. Here we go.

0:09:540:09:57

I think Katy is a dreamer.

0:10:060:10:08

Her dream is to get to be herself and inspire other people.

0:10:080:10:14

There's an undertone of Katy's life represented.

0:10:140:10:17

It's a little Alice In Wonderland, it's Dorothy in Oz.

0:10:170:10:22

She wanted the fans to experience that fantastical world

0:10:220:10:25

that she dreamed up.

0:10:250:10:27

I feel a real connection to fairy tales.

0:10:270:10:29

I think in some ways I live in a fairy tale.

0:10:290:10:33

Your whole family is in the movie, your mum,

0:10:390:10:41

your dad, your granny is in there.

0:10:410:10:44

My grandma, I think, steals the show.

0:10:440:10:46

-AUDIENCE MEMBER: Wrap up the truth.

-She is the truth.

0:10:460:10:48

My sister got married the other day,

0:10:480:10:51

and my grandma is 91 and she's all there,

0:10:510:10:55

she has all her marbles, plus more,

0:10:550:10:57

we were all at my sister's wedding, which was lovely.

0:10:570:11:00

My cousin asked my grandma,

0:11:000:11:03

"Grandma, what do you think of Katy's new purple hair?"

0:11:030:11:06

and she looked me up and down and goes,

0:11:060:11:07

"Well, it's not all hers."

0:11:070:11:10

I was like, "I bought it. I have the receipt."

0:11:100:11:13

She goes, "Where did you get it, the 99 Cent Store?"

0:11:130:11:17

-Did you punch her?

-Yeah, basically.

0:11:170:11:19

Boof! She's in the film and she's pretty hilarious.

0:11:190:11:23

Obviously for you, it's very hard to have a truly private life.

0:11:230:11:28

-Ha-ha!

-Well, it is. People are interested and the tabloids.

-Sure.

0:11:280:11:33

It's a fine line.

0:11:330:11:34

I suppose, in my head, I was watching thinking,

0:11:350:11:37

"Oh, my God, she's nuts."

0:11:370:11:39

Because you've given us so much. You've given us complete access.

0:11:390:11:44

Sometimes that's good, though, you know, to give people,

0:11:440:11:47

to give them it all,

0:11:470:11:48

then they're not looking for the thing that's they think they want.

0:11:480:11:52

Yeah, I admire her for that.

0:11:520:11:54

She looks so cute without her make-up on.

0:11:540:11:56

All right, get over it.

0:11:560:11:59

I still am going to come out full beat every time. War paint.

0:11:590:12:04

It's a fine line. I'm a kind of honest person mostly.

0:12:040:12:07

I like to be as honest as possible, through my music,

0:12:070:12:10

and in my life,

0:12:100:12:11

and my professional life.

0:12:110:12:13

I thought it was important to show everybody things,

0:12:130:12:16

so that people can be inspired by it.

0:12:160:12:19

The two of you are single, well, actually, I don't know if you are.

0:12:190:12:22

Contractually,

0:12:220:12:23

I am a chat show host - I am obliged to ask,

0:12:230:12:25

are you both single, at the moment?

0:12:250:12:26

My dance card is so full, I don't know who I'm dancing with, though.

0:12:260:12:31

A lot of people.

0:12:330:12:34

Just say, I'm not going to have sex with them.

0:12:340:12:37

I'm just putting it out there.

0:12:370:12:39

In this month's GQ,

0:12:390:12:42

-Cheryl Cole...

-Me?

-..you talk about being a woman

0:12:420:12:45

and having the needs of a woman.

0:12:450:12:46

-Dum-dum-dum!

-Got to go. See you later.

0:12:460:12:48

Do I?

0:12:500:12:51

Do you have people who come round in the middle of the night?

0:12:510:12:54

-Do I?

-And have a go and then leave?

0:12:540:12:56

Wouldn't you love to know.

0:12:560:12:58

Help me.

0:13:000:13:01

I have people come around in the middle of the night.

0:13:010:13:04

You make it sound like Neighbourhood Watch.

0:13:040:13:07

"Johnson, 37's down." "Oh, go on, then."

0:13:090:13:12

"Prince Harry is not here yet. Go on, John."

0:13:120:13:15

"Middle of the night" - like sexual ninjas.

0:13:150:13:20

Cheryl, talking of, kind of,

0:13:250:13:28

I don't know if a falling out, a rift or whatever,

0:13:280:13:30

have you kissed and made up with Simon Cowell?

0:13:300:13:32

I wouldn't say kissed.

0:13:320:13:35

I tell you one thing he can kiss.

0:13:400:13:43

No, we've made up, we're fine.

0:13:520:13:53

It's not nice having people you don't talk to.

0:13:530:13:56

I'm not that type of person, anyway. It's not in my nature.

0:13:560:13:59

If he walked out here now, that wouldn't be awkward?

0:13:590:14:01

No, it wouldn't be awkward...

0:14:010:14:03

DRUM ROLL

0:14:030:14:05

Oh, my God, that was so scary.

0:14:070:14:09

That was the greatest joke ever!

0:14:100:14:14

There is a pineapple I could lob at his head.

0:14:150:14:18

Cos, Katy, you did X Factor here. You were on the panel together.

0:14:180:14:21

-We were, yes.

-Yes.

-Were you offered any of the X Factor gigs?

0:14:210:14:25

There's not been actual paper contracts.

0:14:250:14:27

But people have been interested in me judging other people, yeah.

0:14:270:14:32

-Would you do it?

-I would do it...

0:14:320:14:35

Cheryl's right there.

0:14:350:14:37

-You were amazing at it.

-I'm just not ready for it yet.

0:14:370:14:40

Maybe in the future I'd love to.

0:14:400:14:43

-She has movies to make and songs to release.

-I'm busy.

0:14:430:14:46

No, I'm excited. I'm very flattered.

0:14:460:14:49

But there's a lot of those shows.

0:14:490:14:51

You have to be careful with the one you associate yourself with.

0:14:510:14:55

-By the way, are you not allowed to talk about it?

-What?

0:14:560:14:58

-It.

-Simon?

-The whole X Factor debacle?

0:14:580:15:03

I'm allowed to talk about anything I want to talk about.

0:15:030:15:06

-You got your revenge in Afghanistan.

-Did I just?!

0:15:080:15:12

That was actually what broke the ice when I first spoke to him.

0:15:120:15:16

I went out to Afghanistan to visit the troops,

0:15:160:15:20

and they had this whole section where they had explosive devices.

0:15:200:15:23

They were blowing them up to see how they worked.

0:15:230:15:26

And when I got there, somebody had dressed one up as Simon.

0:15:260:15:29

It was the best thing. I got to press the button -

0:15:300:15:34

the detonator and he just went boom.

0:15:340:15:37

Then when I came back, cos you weren't allowed to take mobile phones

0:15:370:15:40

or anything like that, it's a security risk,

0:15:400:15:42

I had messages from Simon saying,

0:15:420:15:44

"So, now that you've blown us up in Afghanistan,

0:15:440:15:47

"is there any chance we can have this conversation?"

0:15:470:15:49

and that's when I spoke to him.

0:15:490:15:51

Then I hired a plane to fly over his house for his 52nd birthday.

0:15:510:15:54

He's 52, by the way, 53 coming.

0:15:540:15:57

He didn't want anybody to know it was his birthday.

0:15:590:16:02

Please tell me the plane was a Tornado from the lads in Afghanistan,

0:16:020:16:06

just flying, heat-seeking missile.

0:16:060:16:09

Did it have a big thing hanging off the back, saying, "Happy Birthday"?

0:16:090:16:12

Yes. I heard a rumour from his people,

0:16:120:16:15

I won't name names,

0:16:150:16:16

but somebody told us he didn't want anybody to know it was his birthday.

0:16:160:16:19

Perfect opportunity for me to hire a plane.

0:16:190:16:22

-You were just being nice.

-I was just being nice! Happy birthday, Simon.

0:16:220:16:26

That's a lovely thing.

0:16:260:16:28

So, it had a banner trailing off, saying, "Simon is 52 today".

0:16:280:16:30

It flew round his house...

0:16:300:16:31

-..52 times.

-I love it.

0:16:330:16:35

Looking back to... was it last year that it happened?

0:16:410:16:44

-When did it happen, the whole X Factor USA?

-Yes, last year.

0:16:440:16:47

It seemed, at the time, it was handled so badly,

0:16:470:16:50

like, when you walked away, who were you angriest with,

0:16:500:16:53

the Fox TV network, with Simon, or with yourself

0:16:530:16:55

for getting sucked into it?

0:16:550:16:57

There was no anger, just relief.

0:16:570:17:00

Just anger?

0:17:010:17:03

Let's make some music.

0:17:030:17:05

Go where you're celebrated, not where you're tolerated.

0:17:050:17:09

With a new album.

0:17:090:17:11

Later on you're performing Call My Name off the album.

0:17:130:17:17

The album is A Million Lights.

0:17:170:17:18

It is.

0:17:180:17:19

It's out on the 18th.

0:17:190:17:21

Call My Name is out on Sunday.

0:17:210:17:23

Saturday midnight, actually.

0:17:230:17:25

If you're still up.

0:17:250:17:26

Like early Sunday.

0:17:260:17:28

I'm surprised, this is your third solo album.

0:17:310:17:34

It's crazy, it's gone so quick.

0:17:340:17:36

The last two both went to number one. I'm guessing this will too.

0:17:360:17:39

-I never say that.

-It will.

0:17:390:17:42

We're confused, Cheryl, because on the artwork,

0:17:420:17:46

we've read in the papers that you are Cheryl.

0:17:460:17:50

-Yes.

-Have you dropped the Cole?

-No.

0:17:500:17:52

So, what happened was...

0:17:520:17:54

You don't need that Cole, honey.

0:17:540:17:57

What did happen?

0:18:040:18:05

I got the new artwork.

0:18:050:18:07

The new artwork, yes.

0:18:070:18:09

And I couldn't fit the Cole on there any more.

0:18:090:18:12

So we just...

0:18:120:18:14

I've got the album here.

0:18:140:18:16

Oh, it does look better.

0:18:160:18:18

Can I just say, taking a CD from there has never got an "Oh, my God!"

0:18:210:18:26

from the audience before.

0:18:260:18:27

And somebody went,

0:18:270:18:29

"Can we have it?"

0:18:290:18:30

You can buy a copy.

0:18:300:18:32

It's probably a very young person who's never seen a CD before.

0:18:320:18:35

"What the hell is that?"

0:18:360:18:38

Now, what's interesting is, again,

0:18:380:18:40

because there's so much interest in your personal life,

0:18:400:18:43

so people will be looking at this thinking, reading stuff...

0:18:430:18:47

-Always.

-..into this. There is a track called Screw You.

0:18:470:18:52

A couple of names drop into your mind.

0:18:530:18:55

It was dedicated to me.

0:18:550:18:58

DIY, it's all about DIY.

0:18:580:19:00

There you go.

0:19:020:19:04

I'm just fixing my kitchen cabinets, Screw You!

0:19:040:19:09

Track number two is called Rawl Plugs Ahoy.

0:19:090:19:13

I'm still on track. What the hell is Screw You about?

0:19:150:19:19

Actually, Screw You came about in a really unprofessional way.

0:19:190:19:23

I went into the studio to record a song that had been written for me.

0:19:230:19:29

I went to a party the night before...

0:19:290:19:32

Cheryl Cole.

0:19:320:19:34

And I was a bit tipsy in the studio.

0:19:340:19:38

AKA, drunk.

0:19:380:19:40

Out of her mind, Katy, that's what I heard.

0:19:400:19:43

When we say tipsy, we are peeing in the streets.

0:19:430:19:46

You can dress her up.

0:19:480:19:50

But you can't take the lady out of Geordie. Newcastle.

0:19:510:19:55

I know where this is. I'm good with geography. I can't spell, though.

0:19:550:19:58

Peeing In The Streets is the hidden track at the end.

0:19:580:20:00

It's like dancing in the streets but more vulgar.

0:20:020:20:06

You got slaughtered before that.

0:20:060:20:08

Still drunk the next day.

0:20:080:20:10

Somebody tweeted a picture of us sticking up the middle finger.

0:20:100:20:15

-Of you doing it?

-Yes, me.

0:20:150:20:16

-And you're not allowed to do that?

-Am I allowed?

0:20:160:20:19

They're your fingers.

0:20:220:20:24

It didn't go down too well with the Queen the other night.

0:20:250:20:30

-Katy, do you find that as well, your new track, Wide Awake.

-Yes.

0:20:310:20:34

-CHEERING

-Thank you.

0:20:340:20:37

Again, people are listening to the lyrics, thinking,

0:20:370:20:40

"Oh, what does she mean there?"

0:20:400:20:42

-Is that annoying?

-No, if it was annoying, I wouldn't do it.

0:20:420:20:47

I'm honest with my music and lyrics.

0:20:470:20:51

That song's about the realisation of reality and coming down from a high.

0:20:510:20:57

-I love that song.

-Thanks.

0:20:570:21:00

-OK.

-Because I've had too much sugar last year.

0:21:000:21:03

What about your vulnerable song, Ross?

0:21:040:21:06

I have a track on one of my DVDs that just says,

0:21:070:21:11

"I'm right sensitive, me."

0:21:110:21:13

It's just ten minutes of me on stage, doing that.

0:21:160:21:19

Legend, proper legend.

0:21:190:21:21

That was quite good, was that a Geordie accent?

0:21:210:21:24

I don't know where it came from.

0:21:240:21:26

What you'll find, when you spend time with people for a while

0:21:280:21:32

and they just start going,

0:21:320:21:34

"All reet, I'll go and get some crisps," you'll morph into a Geordie.

0:21:340:21:38

-That's all right.

-That's what's happening.

0:21:380:21:42

-You love the Geordie accent, don't you?

-Of course.

0:21:420:21:46

-Tell people how you go to sleep?

-I like listening to Geordie Shore.

0:21:460:21:51

Going to sleep?

0:21:510:21:54

Yes, not the vulgarity of anything, but the bridges

0:21:550:22:00

and the, you know, the familiar sounding noise of a Geordie accent.

0:22:000:22:04

-People having fights.

-It's soothing.

0:22:040:22:06

The sound of romance as people have sex in bins.

0:22:060:22:10

The thing is, I love it.

0:22:120:22:14

I love the fact that you do those shampoo adverts, you know.

0:22:140:22:17

When it was Jennifer Aniston, I'm American and the rest of it...

0:22:170:22:22

Oi!

0:22:220:22:23

No, what I'm saying is you expect a shampoo advert

0:22:230:22:28

to be an American going, "Oh, shampoo, oh, shampoo..."

0:22:280:22:32

Because Cheryl does it, who sounds like the girls I went to school with,

0:22:320:22:36

I thought it was going to be, "L'Oreal, how fucking much?!"

0:22:360:22:40

-Did you teach will.i.am some Geordie expressions?

-I try. God, he's bad.

0:22:500:22:55

I do try.

0:22:550:22:57

He likes to... He always says to me, "Where you gonna gone?"

0:22:570:23:00

-What?

-Where are you going to go?

0:23:000:23:03

-Have you played Newcastle?

-Do you have a Rosetta stone for Geordies?

0:23:030:23:08

-There should be, yes.

-Mmm, yeah.

0:23:080:23:10

Is there a useful phrase to teach Katy

0:23:100:23:13

that she could storm on stage next time and delight them with?

0:23:130:23:16

-All right.

-How you goin' toneet, ya all reet?

0:23:160:23:21

Ho re do re do ro....

0:23:210:23:22

Teenage dream...

0:23:240:23:27

That was good.

0:23:290:23:31

You grew up in California, you would think it was worlds apart

0:23:320:23:37

from where these two grew up in Newcastle.

0:23:370:23:39

But in fact, there are more similarities than you'd think.

0:23:390:23:42

I mean, California, sun-drenched towns.

0:23:420:23:45

Newcastle, they have drenched towns.

0:23:450:23:49

California's full of people growing oranges.

0:23:490:23:52

Newcastle is full of people going orange.

0:23:520:23:56

That's a good look.

0:23:560:23:57

-Do you think those lips are real?

-Yeah.

0:23:570:24:00

What she's doing there, there's a pane of glass

0:24:000:24:03

and she's attached to it.

0:24:030:24:04

I'm moving all the way up.

0:24:070:24:09

California, they frolic topless.

0:24:100:24:12

Sadly in Newcastle, they also frolic topless.

0:24:130:24:16

He's actually famous in Newcastle. Proper dedicated fan.

0:24:190:24:23

I'm getting that, Cheryl.

0:24:230:24:24

Do you like the way the Tyne Bridge perfectly crests his gut?

0:24:250:24:29

You really don't want to see the Swing Bridge.

0:24:320:24:35

That bridge is lower than the Tyne Bridge.

0:24:370:24:40

In Newcastle, they're going, "That's a well constructed joke."

0:24:400:24:44

The reels are spinning so hard on that one.

0:24:440:24:47

In California, young people love catching crabs.

0:24:470:24:51

In Newcastle... well, you can imagine.

0:24:510:24:54

That's below the belt.

0:24:560:24:57

You guys seem to be from a lovely place.

0:24:570:25:01

Ironically, that last picture on there, that make up there,

0:25:030:25:06

they're not pixelated.

0:25:060:25:07

Just keep putting it on, man.

0:25:120:25:14

This is a special place in Newcastle.

0:25:160:25:18

Do you recognise this place?

0:25:180:25:19

-Yes, of course.

-A very special honour was bestowed on you there.

0:25:190:25:24

-Was it?

-Yes.

-She was drunk.

-When you were 15, you were named...

0:25:240:25:28

You were made queen of all Geordies.

0:25:280:25:31

-Didn't you win most attractive girl?

-Highlight of my career.

0:25:310:25:37

-It's true, isn't it?

-Who told you? The Sun?

0:25:370:25:39

No, there were a list of things.

0:25:390:25:41

You won a bonnie baby competition

0:25:410:25:42

and most attractive girl at Gateshead Metro Centre.

0:25:420:25:45

I've heard that many times but I don't remember.

0:25:450:25:48

-Maybe they did it in retrospect.

-You are really pretty.

0:25:480:25:54

-Do you not think you're pretty?

-I wasn't then.

-You must have been.

0:25:540:25:57

-No?

-Dog.

0:25:590:26:00

You've been in the glittering halls of the Metro Centre.

0:26:020:26:06

They've just showed you all of Newcastle,

0:26:060:26:08

do you think I was pretty?

0:26:080:26:11

You're gorgeous inside and out and you don't need all the make-up,

0:26:140:26:17

just like me, kind of.

0:26:170:26:19

-You worked in the Metro Centre didn't you?

-I did.

0:26:220:26:24

Work is a very loose description.

0:26:240:26:27

I used to do all the juggling and unicycling and all that...

0:26:270:26:31

-What? A carny?

-I was a carny - that's exactly what I was.

0:26:320:26:36

I got a job, because I used to do all that, on stilts,

0:26:360:26:40

walking around the Metro Centre,

0:26:400:26:41

which you'll know isn't easy, because it's a shiny floor.

0:26:410:26:45

-It is.

-It showcased my stilt skills.

0:26:450:26:46

There was an American diner, they dressed me as Uncle Sam

0:26:460:26:51

and I handed out flyers on the stilts.

0:26:510:26:55

The problem was, the outfit belonged to the daughter of the manager

0:26:550:27:00

for her dance concert.

0:27:000:27:03

Trousers, I've always had large thighs and the trousers

0:27:030:27:07

were pornographic in their tightness.

0:27:070:27:09

They actually split. I didn't realise the gusset had gone.

0:27:100:27:14

Imagine, I'm on stilts, handing out flyers,

0:27:140:27:16

and I couldn't work out why people didn't want to take a flyer,

0:27:160:27:20

but were moving their children away from me.

0:27:200:27:23

"Would you like to dine at the American diner?"

0:27:230:27:26

"No, and we can see your bollocks."

0:27:260:27:27

Ironically, I came second in the most beautiful girl in the Metro Centre.

0:27:290:27:33

LAUGHTER AND APPLAUSE

0:27:330:27:35

The one-two punch.

0:27:390:27:40

Ross Noble, you're on tour in the Autumn, Mind Blender...

0:27:420:27:45

-Yes.

-..is the tour.

0:27:450:27:46

-Yes.

-Presumably this will be as interactive as always.

0:27:460:27:51

Yes, I'm talking to the audience,

0:27:510:27:53

interactive make it's sound like they're wearing helmets

0:27:530:27:55

and plugged in.

0:27:550:27:58

They don't have to laugh, they can just press a button.

0:27:580:28:02

You have done things like...

0:28:020:28:04

didn't Twitter tell you where to go on a tour once?

0:28:040:28:07

Yeah, I spent a week where I got on my motorbike

0:28:070:28:11

and said, "This is where I am, where should I go?"

0:28:110:28:14

I spent a week travelling around.

0:28:140:28:16

People said, "Come to my work and I'll make you tea."

0:28:160:28:19

I just travelled around Britain just meeting people and just doing stuff.

0:28:190:28:24

Because Katy Perry, in addition to your chart success,

0:28:240:28:27

you're also Queen of Twitter.

0:28:270:28:29

You're huge, the third most followed person in the world.

0:28:290:28:32

It's really difficult when I spell something wrong.

0:28:320:28:35

Everybody goes...

0:28:350:28:36

The bar is set quite low on Twitter.

0:28:360:28:39

This is how you spell "your" in this correct way.

0:28:390:28:42

-They go mad for it.

-There's three ways to spell "your"

0:28:420:28:45

and it's horrible.

0:28:450:28:47

-How many followers do you have?

-20 million something.

0:28:480:28:51

-You have 20 million?

-It's all around the world as well.

0:28:540:28:56

-There'll be like Chinese kids.

-Mildly racist.

0:28:560:29:01

How is saying "Chinese kids" racist?

0:29:020:29:04

If I said, "I hate Chinese kids," that's racist.

0:29:050:29:08

You're allowed to say a place where kids are from.

0:29:090:29:12

I think that's not even vaguely racist.

0:29:140:29:18

"Oh, you know what I fancy for tea tonight? Chinese." "Racist!

0:29:180:29:21

"Dirty racist."

0:29:210:29:23

You're meant to say...

0:29:230:29:25

CHEERING

0:29:250:29:27

-All right, a little tweet...

-I think I'll have a takeaway of an ethnic origin.

0:29:270:29:33

LAUGHTER

0:29:330:29:34

Not racist. Cheryl, you're pretty new to Twitter, aren't you?

0:29:340:29:37

-Yeah, nearly a year.

-OK. You're Twitter cr... You love it.

-I do.

0:29:370:29:43

I love just being able to talk to people direct.

0:29:430:29:47

-So much fun, right?

-I don't know what I was doing before.

0:29:470:29:49

-Facebooking, MySpace, networking?

-I didn't do any of that.

0:29:490:29:55

I went directly to Twitter.

0:29:550:29:57

The other day you did 100 tweets in one day.

0:29:570:30:02

-Yeah.

-That was the day I followed her.

0:30:020:30:04

She's slowly writing a novel.

0:30:060:30:08

I got shit to do!

0:30:100:30:12

I wasn't saying, "I have just had a coffee, I'm about to do this."

0:30:120:30:15

I was talking to people direct.

0:30:150:30:17

-Replying to people.

-She's a nice pop star.

-I dedicate time.

0:30:170:30:22

-Ross, you've developed a Twitter bomb.

-Yeah.

-Explain that.

0:30:220:30:27

I did this thing where it was Twitter Bombard Tuesday.

0:30:270:30:31

I would get my followers to not mention me in the tweet at all,

0:30:310:30:34

so people didn't know where it was coming from

0:30:340:30:37

and bombard one person with thousands of stupid questions at the same time.

0:30:370:30:41

We started with Doritos.

0:30:410:30:44

Why have they got their own Twitter feed? You know, still cheesy.

0:30:440:30:49

Still cheesy again.

0:30:490:30:52

We just bombarded them with thousands of questions.

0:30:520:30:55

People were saying things like, "I have a much loved family moth,

0:30:550:30:59

"that's injured its wing,

0:30:590:31:01

"could you use a Dorito as a prosthetic replacement?"

0:31:010:31:04

They're just like, "What? OK."

0:31:060:31:08

"Could you use a Dorito as a plectrum for a spaghetti guitar?"

0:31:080:31:12

But they'd get thousands all at the same time.

0:31:120:31:15

-As a hang-glider.

-See, tiny little hang-glider.

0:31:150:31:19

You could have joined in.

0:31:190:31:21

-If you were an insect.

-Yeah, tweet that.

0:31:210:31:24

People will be doing it now, Doritos will be,

0:31:240:31:26

-"Oh, God, it's happening again!"

-"Oh, God, here we go again!"

0:31:260:31:30

People are just wasting their time, basically.

0:31:300:31:32

LAUGHTER

0:31:320:31:34

Did you get that idea from the time you got everyone to phone

0:31:340:31:37

a radio station in Newcastle.

0:31:370:31:39

Yes, I bet you know who this is.

0:31:390:31:41

-Do you know the flashing blade?

-Yes.

0:31:410:31:44

He's a real Geordie!

0:31:440:31:47

Yeah, there was a phone-in show and I got the audience,

0:31:470:31:52

about 500 people all to say

0:31:520:31:54

that they'd seen an alligator loose, in Heaton Park, in fact.

0:31:540:31:58

It was in Heaton Park.

0:31:580:32:00

They all phoned in this radio station, people were going,

0:32:000:32:03

"Alan, me dog went into some bushes.

0:32:030:32:06

"There was rustling and it come back and there was just the lead,

0:32:060:32:09

"just the lead, me dog's gone."

0:32:090:32:12

And people were ringing in, going, "Aye, our cat got snapped."

0:32:120:32:16

The trouble was it got out of control and it made all the papers.

0:32:160:32:21

My mum rang me up and went, "You've gone too far this time."

0:32:210:32:25

LAUGHTER

0:32:250:32:27

Then it turned into this legend that there was an alligator

0:32:270:32:29

loose in the park.

0:32:290:32:31

-I really believed that. Is it not true?

-That's me!

0:32:310:32:33

-I started that.

-Don't you know that story?

0:32:330:32:37

APPLAUSE

0:32:370:32:40

It's not true. I started it,

0:32:400:32:42

but the worst thing was, about six months later,

0:32:420:32:46

I was watching Pet Rescue on Channel 4,

0:32:460:32:49

and they went, "Today we have a pet rescue special

0:32:490:32:53

"with the Teesside reptile society

0:32:530:32:55

"who are spending the weekend looking for an alligator."

0:32:550:32:58

There were blokes just in waders on this horrible winter's day,

0:32:590:33:03

poking the river.

0:33:030:33:05

"Careful in case it snaps at you."

0:33:050:33:09

-How old were you?

-It was last week.

-Not that long ago.

0:33:090:33:16

It's music time, Cheryl, dancers await.

0:33:160:33:20

-If you want to go and get ready.

-Thank you.

0:33:200:33:22

There she goes!

0:33:220:33:24

SCREAMING

0:33:240:33:25

In a moment, we'll meet this week's visitors to the famous red chair.

0:33:250:33:31

First performing her new single, Call My Name, it is Cheryl Cole!

0:33:310:33:34

# How d'you think I feel when you call my name?

0:33:550:34:00

# You got me confused by the way I change

0:34:000:34:03

# How d'you think I feel when you call my name?

0:34:030:34:06

0:34:060:34:10

# Yes, I love you, say it, for the way I know we've been apart

0:34:250:34:30

0:34:320:34:38

0:35:180:35:22

# My name, say my name, baby

0:35:220:35:25

# It's the constant thought of my baby taking up my time

0:35:280:35:36

# It's an utter vision of you that's playing on my mind

0:35:360:35:41

# Saying I-I-I

0:36:570:36:59

CHEERING

0:37:000:37:01

Thank you.

0:37:040:37:05

Cheryl Cole, everybody!

0:37:070:37:09

Come back and join us. Beautiful job. Cheryl!

0:37:110:37:16

Mwah! Thank you very much.

0:37:160:37:20

I'll guide you round here. I will sit you there.

0:37:200:37:25

Now, that was genius, thank you very much.

0:37:250:37:28

Dance moves, I loved all that -

0:37:280:37:30

-the crotch.

-All the acrobatics.

0:37:300:37:32

Landing in the splits, really?

0:37:320:37:34

Now, it is time for the visit to the red chair.

0:37:340:37:37

Tonight, in honour of our two beautiful ladies...and Ross...

0:37:370:37:43

-Thanks.

-It's men only. It's a men-only red chair.

-Good.

0:37:430:37:49

-You're in charge of the lever, ladies.

-I'm in charge? Oh, you too.

0:37:490:37:52

You're in charge

0:37:520:37:54

-and the men are telling you a story to impress you.

-Right.

0:37:540:37:58

It's as if they're meeting you, say in a bar,

0:37:580:38:00

telling you a story to impress you.

0:38:000:38:02

It'll be their favourite, the one to make you think,

0:38:020:38:06

"Wow, he's the one." OK?

0:38:060:38:07

You may not want to hear the story, in which case, you know what to do.

0:38:070:38:12

-Good luck, boys. Here we go. Hello.

-Hi there, you all right?

0:38:120:38:15

Not impressed, not impressed.

0:38:200:38:24

That was going to have to be an amazing story.

0:38:240:38:27

That was very harsh, very harsh.

0:38:270:38:30

He had sexual ninja written all over him, that fella.

0:38:300:38:33

Maybe we're saving the fine wine till last. Who's next?

0:38:370:38:40

-Now, what's your name?

-Andy.

-Andy? Where are you from?

0:38:420:38:48

-Australia.

-From Australia, OK? Yeah.

-Good.

-Off you go.

0:38:480:38:52

Don't lick your lips like that, it looks weird.

0:38:520:38:54

It's going to happen.

0:38:560:38:59

-The first one didn't get to speak.

-Most of them don't.

0:39:020:39:07

This gives us insight, if this was a bar, the way these two would behave.

0:39:070:39:12

I kissed a girl and I liked it.

0:39:140:39:17

Oh! CHEERING

0:39:170:39:19

Get a room.

0:39:190:39:21

-Oh, hello. Is it hot in here?

-One more, here we go.

0:39:210:39:26

-He's made an effort.

-What time are you from, sir?

0:39:260:39:31

-What's your name?

-Connor.

-And where are you from?

0:39:370:39:40

-Hull.

-That's nice.

0:39:400:39:43

You know...

0:39:430:39:45

That's nice, that's the first time anyone's ever said that.

0:39:450:39:48

Oh, that's nice.

0:39:480:39:49

I thought it's up north, you could share you know, travel things.

0:39:490:39:52

We'll have to be careful,

0:39:520:39:54

when you pull that lever, his cello will go with him.

0:39:540:39:56

-Connor, you look lovely, don't listen to them.

-Thank you.

0:39:580:40:02

What do you do in Hull?

0:40:020:40:04

-I'm a student at the moment.

-Of?

-Chemistry.

-That's smart.

0:40:040:40:10

He's from Hull.

0:40:100:40:12

And it's a play on words, he's a student of chemistry,

0:40:120:40:15

at the bar, picking us up.

0:40:150:40:17

-Where do you study?

-Oxford.

-From Hull to Oxford.

0:40:170:40:22

The graph is like that.

0:40:220:40:26

That's quite a life trajectory, ladies and gentleman.

0:40:280:40:30

Now, he's dating a pop princess! Oh, my God!

0:40:300:40:35

-If you're a real prince, I'll marry you?

-Are you a prince?

0:40:350:40:37

-Sadly not, no.

-You idiot, say yes.

-Yes, I am.

0:40:370:40:42

She's American, she'd never know.

0:40:420:40:46

I am the Prince of Hull.

0:40:460:40:48

Off you go with your story.

0:40:500:40:52

I have an unfortunate habit of sleepwalking.

0:40:520:40:56

It has got me into awkward situations,

0:40:560:41:00

the first of which was locking myself out of my house at 3am.

0:41:000:41:04

I was wearing just my underwear.

0:41:040:41:06

I had been dreaming that I was at a party

0:41:060:41:09

and I needed to leave to go home.

0:41:090:41:11

When leaving, I thought I know I've just gone out of the house

0:41:110:41:15

and left this person's...

0:41:150:41:18

Love of God!

0:41:200:41:21

But he was a prince!

0:41:240:41:27

I think some fumes from an experiment got to him.

0:41:270:41:30

What part of Hull was he from? I very much like the Humber Bridge.

0:41:320:41:36

Maybe he's actually from hell?

0:41:370:41:41

-One more. Hello?

-Hiya.

-Hi.

-OK.

0:41:410:41:48

-What's your name?

-Michael. He has a nice smile.

0:41:530:41:56

Oh, Cheryl don't look like that. He's lovely. He's wearing two tops.

0:41:560:42:00

-He could be the man of your dreams.

-They're attached.

-They're attached.

0:42:000:42:05

Don't say that.

0:42:050:42:07

Is the hair... What's happening there, then?

0:42:070:42:12

-It's a beardy thing.

-No the hair, the actual...

0:42:120:42:16

On top of his head? Should that have cheese and pineapple stuck...?

0:42:160:42:19

Too cruel. Michael, I'm on your side. Where are you from?

0:42:220:42:26

-London.

-And what do you do?

-I run a B&B hotel.

0:42:260:42:31

He runs a B&B hotel.

0:42:310:42:32

You either run a hotel or a bed and breakfast.

0:42:320:42:35

LONDON ACCENT: "I'll tell you what, right? I'll tell you what, lovely!

0:42:350:42:38

"I've sorted it. Down in London, we do a B&B hotel, mate.

0:42:380:42:42

"You get in bed, you get your breakfast,

0:42:420:42:44

"get in there, bish, bosh, and it's got a mini bar, trouser press

0:42:440:42:49

"sorted, charge you double, lovely. Want a bit of cheese and pineapple, mate?

0:42:490:42:52

"Cheese and pineapple, mate, some of that.

0:42:520:42:56

"B&B hotel, innit?"

0:42:580:43:00

Come on, Michael, tell your story.

0:43:010:43:03

I was in Central London with my wife, shopping...

0:43:030:43:05

Wait a minute!

0:43:050:43:07

Very good.

0:43:100:43:11
