The Graham Norton Show never fails to bring the entertainment factor, and in a recent episode, the celebrities did not disappoint. The chat show, known for its lively conversations and hilarious anecdotes, had viewers in stitches with some never-before-seen clips.
One of the highlights of the episode was when Snoop Dogg made an appearance to promote his new album. The rapper revealed that Pharrell Williams, who co-wrote and produced the album, had encouraged him to be more family-friendly and mainstream. Pharrell even had Snoop change certain words in his songs, like toning down a track titled “So Many Hoes” to “So Many Pros.” Snoop clarified that “pros” referred to professionals, not prostitutes, and the video featured women who were professionals in their field.
But Pharrell’s collaboration with Snoop wasn’t without its challenges. While working on a song called “California Rome,” Stevie Wonder joined them in the studio. Pharrell, feeling starstruck, froze and didn’t know how to produce the song. Snoop had to step in and take over, explaining directions to Stevie, who couldn’t see because he was in the mic booth. Despite the difficulties, Snoop was happy with Pharrell’s work on the track.
In between their work, the celebrities also managed to have some fun. Snoop revealed that they visited a ping-pong club during their spare time. However, Snoop had an unfortunate experience with a ping-pong ball. Trying to show off, he pretended to catch the ball with his mouth, but the skilled player caught him off guard, and the ball ended up in his mouth. The unexpected moment left everyone amazed and confused.
Another celebrity guest on the show was chef Nigella Lawson, who brought a cake as a gift. However, when asked to taste it, Bradley Cooper couldn’t resist making a joke, saying it looked like something else. Nigella good-naturedly played along, and Bradley went straight for that part. The lighthearted banter had the audience in stitches.
As the conversation turned to Christmas, Bradley revealed his enthusiasm for the holiday, expressing his love for all things Christmas, much to the surprise of the other guests. He shared a childhood memory of causing a ruckus during a nativity play by trying to stage a coup and replacing the baby Jesus with a ham.
Speaking of Christmas, comedian David Mitchell discussed his perspective on the festive season. He admitted that he isn’t particularly bothered about the pressure to have a perfectly tidy and decorated house. David joked about the obsession many people have with their homes, pointing out that as long as you have the essentials, like a roof, heating, a TV, and a fridge, you’re good to go.
The conversation took a comical turn when Bradley and David discussed doing cartwheels. Bradley jokingly offered a thousand pounds to charity if David would perform a cartwheel. While David was initially hesitant, with some encouragement, he finally gave it a go. The studio erupted in laughter as David attempted the cartwheel, stumbling and swaying in the process.
As the celebrities entertained the audience with their hilarious stories, the episode proved to be yet another memorable installment of The Graham Norton Show. From Snoop Dogg‘s collaboration with Pharrell to Bradley Cooper‘s cartwheel attempt, the chat show delivered its signature blend of humor and entertainment. Fans of the talk show can always count on its celebrity guests and spontaneous moments to brighten their day.
