In an exclusive appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, Graham Norton praised Taylor Swift’s grounded nature and shared entertaining anecdotes from his hit chat show.
Graham Norton, the face of The Graham Norton Show and beloved Irish comedian, recently dished out some insights on global pop sensation Taylor Swift. He also shared glimpses from his legendary chat show. On a recent guest spot on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, Norton, 61, described Swift as surprisingly grounded despite her towering fame.
“Someone like Taylor Swift, who is arguably the most famous woman in the world—I’m not sure if it’s a facade, but she seems incredibly normal,” said Norton. He marveled at her remarkable ability to boost economies simply by stepping foot in a city. Swift’s kindness and authenticity didn’t go unnoticed, with Norton adding, “And yet she’s so lovely and normal and just fantastic.”
Norton highlighted Swift’s strategic prowess in songwriting. He reminisced about a candid chat where Swift shared her secret to maintaining vocal health on grueling tours. Swift casually mentioned her clever tactic of composing easy-to-sing tracks, ensuring she preserves her voice while creating sing-along anthems for fans. “She literally decided ‘I will write easy-to-sing songs. And therefore, I need never worry about my voice because I’ll be fine.’ And also, now all the fans sing all of them,” Norton explained.
Norton didn’t just sing praises for Swift; he also revealed some electrifying tales from the set of his award-winning show, known for its blend of humor and celebrity engagements. He recalled a time with actress Darryl Hannah, who wrestled with nerves reminiscent of her fainting spell on “The Late Show With David Letterman,” yet finished the show feeling triumphant.
Then there was the memorable encounter with actor Mickey Rourke, marked by overindulgence in Jack Daniels, which Norton admits was a challenge to steer through.
Norton also recounted a moment with pop icon Madonna in 2012, where her diva-like reaction to fan-made dolls became a legendary bit, showcasing Norton’s knack for creating entertaining television moments.
Norton’s vibrant hosting style has been recognized with numerous accolades including three British Academy Television Awards for Best Entertainment Performance.
