Elle Macpherson and KT Tunstall chat to Graham Norton
|
Supermodel Elle Macpherson, comic Frankie Boyle and KT Tunstall join Graham Norton for tonight's edition of The Graham Norton Show on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Two.
Μύ
Anglophile Elle talks about the success of her range of underwear in the UK: "Design is my thing, it's what I love to do. Everyone said you can't sell knickers to British women because they all go to Marks & Spencer and they get one pair of nice knickers for a Saturday night.
Μύ
"I said we have to change that and women need to be educated, it's about women taking pride in their bodies, wearing things for themselves, making them feel feminine and sexy."
Μύ
As for her own 'The Body' soubriquet: "It was an albatross about my neck but I've turned it into a business."
Μύ
And on her own attitude to her body image now, she says: "It's not about how can I wrack my body, it's about what I can do to manage stress, unwind ... even when I don't do anything [exercise], nothing much changes."
Μύ
She also says of her own alleged friendship with Sir Paul McCartney: "Not everything you read is true [but] Stella and I are friends."
Μύ
KT Tunstall reminisces about her days busking on the streets of Glasgow and London and an unexpected brush with fame when she was 19:
Μύ
"I was busking in Camden and I saw this small guy and it was Mark Owen. He gave me Β£1! I said 'oi I want a fiver'. I didn't keep the pound but I kept the memory. This was pre-comeback, he said 'it'll be you giving me money soon!'"
Μύ
And her own attitude to buskers now? "I have a rule, if a busker makes me feel happy, I'll give them money."
Μύ
KT also performs her new single Saving My Face live in the studio.
