¡°I Put my Willy in People¡¯s hands for a joke!¡±
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡He may look like butter wouldn¡¯t melt, but Simon Gage discovered that John Barrowman is one saucy so-and-so...
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡¡°You¡¯re really milking me today¡°, says John Barrowman, as he realises that we¡¯re going in deep with the heat interview and then expecting a full photo session after we¡¯ve metaphorically! - sucked him dry.¡± And when I¡¯m being milked, I usually like my cock to be stroked.¡±
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Welcome to the hilarious, saucy, potty-mouthed world of Torchwood star, radio DJ, West End Wendy and now writer, Barrowman (he¡¯s just published his autobiography). It may be just 9.30 in the morning - John¡¯s looking freshly showered and rather buff in a light blue polo shirt and slightly ripped jeans as he refuses all coffees and teas in this abandoned nightclub - but within minutes he¡¯ll be talking about everything from splitting his pants on a regular basis as he can ¡°nearly do the splits¡± (this said with a raised eyebrow), to getting an erection during a massage yesterday but not being offered a ¡°happy ending¡±. He demonstrates the sort of massage he likes on this heat journo¡¯s back - really hard, almost painful - but also falls short of offering a ¡°happy ending" even though he is one of the most flirtatious people you could hope to meet.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡And that¡¯s the weird thing about John (who is probably even more handsome in the flesh than on telly, in case you are wondering): he manages to balance being openly gay, filthy dirty and very free with legendarily super-sized member with a healthy Saturday teatime career, whether it¡¯s on Doctor Who (even though he¡¯s now graduated to his own spin-off show, Torchwood) or as a judge on Any Dream Will Do. He even presented kids¡¯ show Live and Kicking, remember?
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡But then he¡¯s a happily married man - having celebrated a civil partnership ceremony with his very long term architect boyfriend Scott. just over a year ago - very well connected (the new autobiography has pictures of him cosying up to everyone from Dame Shirley Bassey through Kylie and Claudia Schiffer to dalek) and a well-respected Olivier nominated member of the theatrical community. But to us - and to Denise Van Outen - he¡¯ll always be just big gay John.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡So are there any famous shags in your book that we should be getting excited about?
¡¡¡¡I haven¡¯t had relationships with famous people! I¡¯ve been approached by famous people, but said no. They wanted me for other reasons. As a trophy. And I don¡¯t want to be a trophy. (laughs) I want to have my own trophies. (Very famous fashion designer) Valentino courted me for quite a long time. I wanted to be his friend but I don¡¯t think he wanted a friendship.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Did he send you roses?
¡¡¡¡Hell, no! He sent me Rolexes. He gave me a 1959 Rolex, but I¡¯m not going to boast about how much it was worth because I actually took it to Christie¡¯s and auctioned it. I didn¡¯t feel comfortable keeping these things. When I was on his boat in the Mediterranean, he gave me this diamond cross with sapphires in it because he said he wanted to see my eyes sparkle against the sapphires as I was swimming in the sea. It¡¯s a different world! As you step aboard his yacht, you get a Bulgari watch given to you.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡How do you meet people like that?
¡¡¡¡They approach you. I was 21 or 22 and he phoned me at the theatre where I was on and made it look like I was going to model clothing for him....
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡He just wanted to see you in your underwear....
¡¡¡¡Well, he saw me in my speedos in his yacht, but I¡®ve always stood by the fact that I have never slept with anyone to get anywhere.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Just cash.
¡¡¡¡(Laughs) No cash! Just enjoyment and pleasure. I always joke with (theatre producer extraordinaire and multisquillionaire) Cameron Mackintosh that the only reason he continues to employ me is that I¡¯ve never slept with him. Because once you¡¯ve had something, you don¡¯t want it any more.
¡¡¡¡So, before Scott, were you shagging tour way around town?
¡¡¡¡I was a healthy young man. I did what everyone else did.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡You¡¯re quite saucy and openly gay anf yet a family favourite...
¡¡¡¡I don¡¯t have an answer to it, but if I had a formula I would sell it. I think it¡¯s because I¡¯m honest and talk about things that people actually do. And women find that more comforting. It¡¯s funny because couples approach me and the wife will say, ¡°We¡¯ve talked about this, and if anyone could turn my husband, we¡¯d like it to be you¡±.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡You should take them up on it....
¡¡¡¡(Laughs) I don¡¯t think I could. I¡¯ve never thought about it.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Think about it now.
¡¡¡¡Hmm (thinks about it) I don¡¯t know if I could. I¡¯m not into girls.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡She could just watch. ..Have you ever done it with a girl?
¡¡¡¡No, I¡¯ve done (mimes squeezing tits) and (mimes squeezing downstairs) and (mimes oral sex)...
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡You¡¯ve done that to a girl?!
¡¡¡¡Growing up, you have to try things. I tried things and I found out what I liked and what I didn¡¯t like. If I was with a girl I would have to concentrate on getting an erection, whereas I¡¯d just have to look at a naked boy and...boing! That was my confirmation that I was gay.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡What girls do you fancy, at a push?
¡¡¡¡I always fancied the glamorous, camp, ones: Joan Collins... I like powerful strong women, Pamela Ewing over Sue Ellen. And I¡®ve been flirted with by women and I¡®ve liked it, but I¡®m never going to go any further than that.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Apart from putting your penis in people¡¯s hands! We¡¯ve spoken to three people who have had your penis in their hand! Denise Van Outen, Suranne Jones and John Partridge (who plays the new gay character in Eastenders)....
¡¡¡¡And it put a big smile on their face didn¡¯t it?
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Denise said that they¡¯d be a knock on the door and your penis would appear round the door.
¡¡¡¡Yeah, I¡¯d just poke it round.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡She should¡¯ve slammed the door!
¡¡¡¡No she shouldn¡¯t! Denise is a riot! I had a great time doing Joseph with her! We have great chemistry and we¡¯re saucy.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Did you realise that she and Lee Mead were going to hook up?
¡¡¡¡I had no idea. I knew she fancied him, but I took it as a joke. I did know before everyone else knew that it was happening, however. I just went, ¡°Good on you, girl! And good on him!¡± I tell you, I¡¯d watch that! Denise knows I would too!
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡As we speak, she¡¯s probably cutting the eyes out of a painting, Scooby Doo style, for you to watch through....
¡¡¡¡As long as she doesn¡¯t tell Lee! He won best bum of the year. He¡¯s got great thighs... And a good bum!
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡You checked that out?
¡¡¡¡Of course! When the camera saw me and Denise discussing something in Any Dream Will Do, we¡¯re not going, ¡°I think the vocal quality is a bit bad tonight¡±. We¡¯re going ¡°Look at his arse. Look at that packet!¡±
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡If it had been based purely on sex appeal, would Lee have won?
¡¡¡¡If it had been based purely on sex appeal, Ben Ellis should have won. He asked me, ¡°What can I do to stand out in those group numbers?¡± and I said ¡°Give it a bit of pelvic action. Lead with your pelvis¡±. (He demonstrates by standing with his groin thrust forwards) It worked!
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡How long will Torchwood go on?
¡¡¡¡Seven hundred million years, because Captain Jack is immortal. He¡¯s actually a different character in Torchwood to in Doctor Who. He¡¯s still bisexual in Doctor Who, but that went over everyone¡¯s head. He grabbed a guy¡¯s arse in the first scene and no one said anything.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Who¡¯s that guy you kissed on Torchwood recently when his wife was along for the shooting?
¡¡¡¡That was his girlfriend! It was James Marsters, who plays Captain John. The first day we were on set together, we had to do the kiss and he said I made him feel very comfortable, then he said, ¡°My girlfriend¡¯s getting really turned on by this! Do it as many times as you want! Who could ask for more? You¡¯d love that to happen in the Pitcher & Piano!
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Which doctor do you fancy most: Christopher Eccleston or David Tennant?
¡¡¡¡There are fanciable things about both. David is funnier, lighter, more energetic, and I think I find that aspect of him sexy; but Chris is a little darker and there¡¯s a part of me that finds that sexy. Put it this way, if it was me as a person going to have a relationship with the two doctors, I would shag Christopher, get that over and done with, and then I¡®d have a relationship with David. That's John Barrowman not Captain Jack speaking. But I flirt with David all the time. He knows and he'll be funny back.
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Do you think he likes it?
¡¡¡¡Of course he likes it! Whether you¡¯re straight or gay, everyone likes a flirt. It can be anything from making jokes ....
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡To incy-wincy spider up his leg?
¡¡¡¡No, I wouldn¡¯t do that to him, it¡¯s not that kind of relationship. Eve Miles - my co-star in Torchwood - I play with her boobs all the time. I call them ¡°the girls¡±. Hers are the girls and mine are the boys. I go (mimes putting his face in her chest) ¡°Oooh the girls are looking good today!¡± And she¡¯ll go (mimes someone tickling her balls) ¡°and how are the boys?¡±
¡¡¡¡
¡¡¡¡Do people still say you look like Tom Cruise?
¡¡¡¡All the time. It¡¯s getting a bit old, that comparison. I did a radio show this morning and the first thing they said was ¡°Oh my God, you look so much like Tom Cruise!¡± I'm flattered because he is a good looking man, but we are very different. He¡¯s a scientologist and I¡¯m not.... And I don¡¯t plan on being one any time soon.
