Are You Looking Forward to The Mighty Boosh Movie?

PopSugarUK — Tue, 27 Oct 2009 01:20:50 -0700

Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt have announced that they are working on a script for a movie version of The Mighty Boosh! While Noel is currently on our screens as a team captain on Never Mind The Buzzcocks, he's working with Julian on a script and an album for the Boosh gang, that he says will hopefully be released next year. Julian said:

"... we've been doing the show and touring a lot and we've finally got round to writing. We try and do, on TV, quite magical epic journeys and we thought if you're doing a film we should really do it in one room, basically just kind of a sitcom for 90 minutes. So we might do that. We might do exactly what we didn't do on TV."

Who knows what the finished product will actually take the shape of, but I'd love to know if you're looking forward to The Mighty Boosh movie!

Kate, David, Noel and Rhys Show Off Their Moves At Movida

PopSugarUK — Thu, 23 Apr 2009 03:27:36 -0700

Kate Moss was a sparkly social butterfly last night as she showed her face at a few events in London. She met up with David Walliams at a jewellery launch and the pair then went on to Nobu to celebrate a friend's birthday alongside fellow celebs including Rhys Ifans. To finish the night the group headed to Movida where Noel Fielding and Alice Dellal were also pictured leaving the club in the early hours. Jamie Hince is on tour in the US with The Kills right now, which explains his absence, but it looks like Kate had a fab night out with David despite that!

Noel, Mathew and James Entertain Skins Cast For TCT

PopSugarUK — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 05:12:00 -0700

This weekend James Corden, Mathew Horne, Noel Fielding and a bunch of other comic folk took to the stage at the Royal Albert Hall in front of an audience including some of my favourite Skins castmembers. It was the final night of six days of successful events in aid of the Teenage Cancer Trust, including my great night at the Stereophonics gig last Thursday! Mathew and James dressed up as some of the characters from their TV show, while Noel did some of his bizarrely brilliant stand up. Nicholas Hoult took a night off from his play New Boy to see the show alongside his old castmate Kaya Scodelario, and my favourite current Skins castmember Jack O'Connell. What a fun night - and all in aid of a great cause.

The categories range from the musical, encompass TV - where PopSugarUK favourites Gavin & Stacey and Skins are up for awards - film, web, venues, style, and then move on to the more fun Hero / Villian Of The Year categories.

Those American teen sensations the Jonas Brothers have also been recognised, with nods in the Worst Band and Worst Album categories in the reader-voted shortlists, but they shouldn't worry too much as they're also alongside Best Band nominee Oasis.

Noel's Sweet New Year's Resolution

PopSugarUK — Tue, 06 Jan 2009 08:00:00 -0800

Noel Fielding left his hotel in Dublin yesterday, dressed eccentrically in a multicoloured tartan jacket, black leggings and gold boots. He and his Mighty Boosh collaborator Julian Barratt are playing the last few dates of their mammoth live tour, with the whole thing wrapping up in Aberdeen on January 17. The funny pair have also summed up 2008 in a video interview, looking back at various things like Valentine's Day and the credit crunch. He's also been talking new year's resolutions, saying:

"Resolutions are a shocker. I just want to stop buying so many sweets and make my own instead. Rather than Haribo Fantasy Mix, I’d make my own Reality Mix. They’d have things like egg sandwiches, phone bills and Oyster cards in them."

As much as I love Noel's crazy ideas, I'm not sure that one's going to go anywhere!

The Mighty Book Signing

PopSugarUK — Tue, 16 Dec 2008 05:00:00 -0800

Those men from The Mighty Boosh, Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt, were signing copies of their book in London yesterday. The Mighty Book Of Boosh is a weird and wonderful journey through the caverns of the duo's minds, with stories written by the characters, photos from the set and some fab original artwork by Noel too. The two are also working together on a movie called The Bunny And The Bull, so it looks like we'll get a chance to see a lot more of the comedy duo next year. Don't expect tons of star cameos though, Noel said: "I hate those films where there are just loads of pointless cameos. There'll be some cool people." So, will you be adding a copy of their book to your Christmas list?

Stars Celebrate And Spar At The GQ Awards

PopSugarUK — Wed, 03 Sep 2008 04:00:00 -0700

After the glamorous arrivals it was time to get down to the nitty gritty of the GQ Men Of The Year Awards and give out the gongs. There were some fab photo opportunities as the stars collided – Dave Grohl and Bobby Gillespie looked like twins with their long hair, Josh Brolin got a kiss on the cheek from Thandie Newton, and a bewildered-looking Boris Johnson received his award from Trinny and Susannah. My favourite, James Corden, received his breakthrough award from Gavin and Stacey co-writer Ruth Jones, and Alfie Allen and Jaime Winstone had their engagement revealed by Alfie's sister Lily who introduced Jamie as "my future sister-in-law". Mysteriously Alfie just said "Well, now you know" in response.

Speaking of Lily, she and Elton John had a bit of a spar at the ceremony, as Lily introduced "the most important part of the night", Elton apparently interjected "What? Are you going to have another drink?" Lily then responded "F*** off Elton, I'm 40 years younger than you and have my whole life ahead of me!" He retorted, "I could still snort you under the table", and Lily replied "F*** off. I don't know what you're talking about." Wow.
