Russell Brand
“He had a sort of news show at the time that was called The Trews, bit like the news but not.”
Piers Morgan
“I think the stand at the keystone really of this book tour so far has been the appearance on Piers Morgan's YouTube show.”
Anna Wintour
“And we're going to talk about how it, in my view, represents a complete defeat for every single thing Anna Wintour, the legendary editor of Vogue, ever stood for.”
