Matt LeBlanc appeared on the Graham Norton Show last night to talk about the upcoming series of Top Gear, which will air this Sunday.

And with Graham being from Ireland, of course he had to ask about the infamous hen party that Matt allegedly crashed.

The host started off by asking about the former Friends star's time “back in my neck of the woods, Southern Ireland, West Cork, Kerry," and then showed the gas hen do picture on the big screen.

"Was she just taking a selfie and you literally just drove by?" Graham questioned.

To which Matt replied, "She was with her girlfriend and they were on their way to her hen do, and we were driving up the road and we were at a red light, I think in Dingle, they came over and just took a selfie."

Brilliant. However, Graham did mention that Matt looked particularly happy in the snap.

"She had a very short skirt on," Matt laughed.

Oh, Matt. You chancer.

We all love a bit of Graham Norton, from his stint on everyones beloved Father Ted to his popular talk show, we just can't get enough of the comedian.

And now, it seems we're going to get a whole lot more as Graham is about to debut his first novel.

UK publishers Hodder & Stoughton have revealed that even though the book has no name yet, it will be hitting bookshelves soon.

“I’m thrilled to be publishing Graham’s first novel and to be launching what we believe will be a major new career for him as a novelist,” Hodder & Stoughton's Hannah Black told the Mail On Sunday.

“This is a darkly funny book; Graham is a skilled storyteller, the writing impressively broad and layered.

“He knows this world and he understands people, their secret passions, and motivations, and that is in part what helps to make this such an accomplished and compelling debut,” she added.

The TV host wrote the book last summer, and actually surprised himself by doing it.

“Like so many other people I’ve always wanted to write a novel and I’m both proud and shocked that I have finally done it. It’s a mixture of mystery and romance, set in a part of the world I love,” he said.

He's the king of the chat show; the guy who's on first-name terms with just about every A-lister going. 

And yesterday Corkonian Graham Norton sent the internet wild with a snap posted from New York, where he is currently enjoying some down-time. 

 

@giopionyc I said yes! #Valentine's #newyork…. to another drink! Calm down peeps!!

Sharing a loved-up Valentine's Day snap, the presenter is seen with his arms wrapped warmly around handsome lawyer, George Sapio.

With the accompanying caption declaring 'I said yes!' along with the inclusion of an engagement ring emoji fans were quick to offer congratulations to the 52-year-old.

However, on further inspection, it seems that Graham was merely enjoying a spot of light-hearted banter: asking everyone to "calm down," he subsequently declared that he had only agreed to another drink… rather than a proposal of marriage.

Nevertheless, several folk were caught up in the moment, with one fan on Instagram declaring: "Ahhhh graham is engaged!!" And another excited individual said: "Omg!!! Congrats!!!!!!!!!!! So happy for you two! Love, love your show!" 

Others excitedly shared chapel, wedding, and celebration emojis in response. 

Late last year it was reported that Graham had split from his boyfriend, music marketing consultant Andrew Smith. It is believed that Mr Norton is currently single.

We're beginning to think that next Friday should just be called Zayn day as the hottie is not only releasing his first solo single, but he's also doing his first solo interview with Graham Norton.

The ex 1D star teased his single on social media this morning, taking to Twitter to show what we believe to be the cover of his hotly anticipated single.

In the picture, Mr Malik is lying topless, and across him is the name of the new song, Pillow Talk.

And, of course his fans went into meltdown, with one Twitter user saying: "I'm gifting 100 copies to people to get it to #1 follow me," while others posted pictures of excitement.

Another die hard fan wrote: "you are so talented and deserve the world. This will be your year. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you #PillowTalk."

It then wasn't long before he got the song trending on Twitter. Let's just hope it lives up to expectations.

Despite not taking home anything from the National Television Awards once again (which we reckon is a TRAVESTY), Graham Norton has just been voted as the UK's favourite TV host of all time. 

The 52-year-old topped the poll easily beating out the likes of Alan Carr, Jonathon Ross and TV veteran, Michael Parkinson. 

Finally!

"Graham Norton’s off-the-cuff humour, likeable personality and quality guests have seen him out-do some of the best in the business," said a spokesperson for One-Poll, who conducted the survey, 

While a survey is not going to get him an award to place on his mantelpiece, we reckon he will be chuffed with this title. 

Graham lost out to UK presenters Ant & Dec who have won the Most Popular Entertainment Presenter Award fifteen years on the trot now at the NTAs, despite literally begging fans to drop his show a vote on Instagram. 

We're just happy that the UK love him as much as we do.

David Beckham is a man of many talents, but this one has to be the best one yet. 

The footballer was on the Graham Norton Show last night and was challenged to something everyone wants to try: a light saber duel.

After a lot of hesitation, he took the dark side's red saber and Star Wars actor, John Boyega went for the blue saber. 

Graham Norton said David's kids would be totally jealous of him, but truth be told, I think we all are.

Tinder is an undeniably useful app. And we would be totally lying if we said that we are (along with all our other single friends) getting in on that swipe action. 

But what would you do if you came across a bona fide celebrity?

Well, you would swipe right obviously. Wouldn't you?

According to the Sun, this was the exact dilemma faced by some unsuspecting singletons who stumbled across Graham Norton's profile while browsing through the popular dating app. 

The reports stated that the Cork man's profile included pics of the chat show host on holidays and another where he is clad from head to toe in biker gear. 

Good on you, Graham. 

The 52-year-old is newly single following the end of his relationship with his music marketing consultant beau, Andrew Smith, who he was seeing since the end of last year. 

Judging from a recent interview on BBC Radio 2, it would seem that Graham is not that particularly fussed about being in a relationship.

"You have your own rules as you get older. I would prefer to live alone for the rest of my life rather than live with towels that were folded incorrectly."

"Petty is important. That’s why marriages break up. Marriages don’t break up because of big things."

So maybe he is just dabbling on Tinder to see what all the fuss is about? Or even better, maybe he is on it to give his loyal viewers a hilarious gag in an upcoming episode of his chat show. 

We live in hope!

Adele appears to have become the celebrity of the moment as her fans were whipped into a frenzy after her most recent album being released yesterday. People just cannot seem to get enough of the singer.

In a Adele At The BBC however, we see a whole completely side to the iconic singer. Hosted by Graham Norton, she is set to perform a number of tracks old and new. 

The duo were not content to have her appearance be just another on stage performance. The Hello singer decided to spend some time with Adele impersonators- while dressed as an Adele impersonator. 

She donned some prosthetics and joined some of her biggest fans to audition for a fictional show at the New Wimbledon theatre.

Adele became Jenny, a nanny who is also a huge Adele fan and impersonator. She took to the stage to perform Make You Feel My Love and even pretended to miss her cue. She really went for the impersonator role. She almost had her fans convinced, but the true Adele lovers knew what was going on when they heard 'Jenny' sing.  

One of the impersonators, Katie Markham, told BuzzFeed: 

"The others didn't clip straightaway and then Lisa started roaring her eyes out. Because none of them realised I thought, stuff this, and started singing with her."

After the performance they all got to hang out with Adele which Katie said was amazing:

"We had a chat with her for a little while, and then we sand with her. And, God, honestly it was ACE."

Chat show host and general funny man Graham Norton has voiced his displeasure with one famous singing competition.

The 52-year old blasted the X Factor saying the series has “lost its credibility”. The BBC star admitted that he has not lost faith in all reality competitions as he still tunes into Strictly Come Dancing.

Strictly is the X Factor’s biggest rival, and has come under fire in recent months after making changes to the judges’ panel as well as the hosts.

Graham revealed he hasn’t been tuning in “for the past few years because it just seems so long now- it’s endless.”

The TV star also commented on the talent which the show brings in, or lack thereof:

“The people aren’t very good, so to all the judges’ comments of, I’d buy your album tomorrow’ you think, ‘You’re never having an album. You wouldn’t throw 50p at them if they were busking in the Tube’.”

Compared to previous years where the X Factor managed to pull in around 9 million viewers, this year the show is facing a decrease in two million. This year the series' opening episode was the lowest-rated since 2006. 

Simon Cowell may have to retract his comment from earlier this year when he boasted the show would beat Strictly with this year's ratings:

"This show does feel better, the talent’s great, they’re interesting, so if it’s us versus Peter Andre, I’m going to put my money on us."

The Mirror claims a source for the show has hit back at Graham's comments:

“I’m surprised to hear these comments given that The X Factor is the only TV show which has produced credible artists, including One Direction , Little Mix, Olly Murs and Ella Henderson, as well as the anticipated releases from Ben Haenow and Fleur East from last year’s series."

They also added that once 'catch-up' viewers are taken into account that almost 10 million people have viewed some episodes so fat this year. 

Speaking with Radio Times in an interview Graham also admitted that there is one other TV series that he will be tuning in to watch. When asked about his viewing habits regarding his own chat show he responded

“If I’m in I’ll watch it when it’s on, and I’ll definitely watch it along the line. If I haven’t bothered to watch it, why would anybody else?”

Fans of The Graham Norton Show will be devastated to hear that its host, Graham Norton is considering retiring in the not so distant future.

The 52-year-old Cork native admitted that he wants to retire well before he turns 60. Speaking to his Radio 2 co-presenter Maria McErlane, Graham explained that, “You want to get out when people are still watching your show.”

“The thing nobody wants to do is the inching backwards, where you are going, ‘Yes the cast of TOWIE can come on.’ I’m not jumping tomorrow but it is in my head.”

The former Father Ted star has had his own chat show for 18 years. The BBC show has ran since 2007. His popular couch has sat many of the world’s biggest stars, from Robert de Niro, to Russel Crowe and Sandra Bullock.

He explains how he wouldn’t consider continuing the show if he could no longer get the best guests, which he says, is unfortunately inevitable at some point. 

“When it comes to chat show wars, yes you always try and bag the biggest guests and at the moment we do seem to be having a good run of it. But these things go in cycles. That will turn and change.”

From Mark Wahlberg caressing Graham’s chest, to the sexy trio of Michael Fassbender, James McAvoy and Hugh Jackman dancing to Blurred Lines and of course, the infamous red chair, this is one show that we would be devastated to say goodbye to.

It looks like fans of Graham Norton are in for a bit of treat tonight.

This evening's show features a stellar line-up, including Cara Delevingne, Jake Gyllenhaal, Tinie Tempah, Emilia Clarke and the legendary Arnold Schwarzenegger.

Letting us in on what kind of antics we can expect from the couch, Arnie posted this epic video of himself and his fellow guests having a laugh with some of the Terminator's most famous quotes:

Amazing.

Arnold is currently in the UK to promote the newest instalment of the Terminator franchise, Teminator Genisys, and by the looks of it he has been having great craic all week.

As well as pranking a whole load of tourists at Madame Tussauds by posing as a waxwork of himself, Arnie also wreaked havoc with a rental bike on the streets of London:

Don't worry though, he was quick to remind his fellow passengers that he was in no danger of getting hurt:

HASTA LA VISTA, BABEEEE.

He is one of the funniest – not to mention the hottest – celebrities around, so we’re not surprised that Chris Pratt’s appearance on The Graham Norton Show has left people in absolute stitches.

With comedian John Bishop on the big red couch, presenter Graham posed the question of whether fellow guests Chris, Melissa McCarthy and Jude Law could understand a word of what he had to say.

Chris admitted to following the entire conversation, mainly because his wife, Anna Faris, is a huge TOWIE fan and he has the accent down to a T.

Revealing how Anna grew obsessed with the reality show while he filmed Guardians of the Galaxy in London, Chris went on to give the most hilarious explanation of the TOWIE concept.

Describing the cast as “the worst”, the 35-year-old proceeded to give most epic and spot-on impression of Joey Essex and the crew.

Check it out in the video below.
