Only this man can be so genuinely angry and not lose the comedy performance in its execution . Love you Johnny you really don't care ,brilliant put down for the heckler too!
Johnny was right on about the comic aid gig just being an excuse for the audience to watch comedy performances. 'You've been beautiful and dishonest!' a true comedy legend.
I saw Johnny Vegas at the royal exchange in Manchester in 2000 and to this day it's the only gig I've ever been to where people were literally rolling in the aisles helpless with laughter. He was absolutely brilliant.
This is one of the best and most spontaneous comedy performances I've ever seen. To all the idiots, Johnny Vegas wasn't drunk at all, and to all the people who think him kissing the woman was wrong, he essentially pressed his face against hers, no tongue, no real kissing, he did it all for comedy, and both the woman and the guy next to her realised this, as did most of the audience, that's why there was so much laughter and applause.. If you don't have the capacity to understand things, don't comment on them. Realise this, because you just seem like idiots to those of us that do.
hahaha most of the audience that had clear sight of him :O not saying i am, because i know im not, but one thing i do know is that most really clever people are not as arogent as you ;) there is a difference between letting some know the truth and being a jerk about it :) have a nice life !!
jasper petersen haha read your comment again :D if one does not have the "capacity" of understanding, is one then able two know if they have it or not? and on that note, are you a muslim ?
jasper petersen What I said was in a more 'stop spoiling things for the rest of us' kind of way. The people to whom I am referring are those who genuinely believe he was drunk or don't realise it's all a bit of fun, no harm done. You know, the letters of complaint to OFCOM crowd. No I am not a Muslim, why should that matter?
I was very tired when i commented. The Muslim thing was a joke about freedom of speach (with irony towards the asumption that all muslims are the same :)) i know nothing of OFCOM ? :)
jasper petersen OFCOM are the company who people complain to when they see something they have an issue with on tv in the UK, you know the type, those who spend their entire lives complaining because they are miserable gits who want to stop others enjoying something just because they can't. I'm not going to get into a religious debate because I'll be here all day; so let's just say, the idea of a God is fine, but all 'religion' is a cancer.
That was great, thats what we all want, someone making a total arse of themselves, instead of some mediocre run of the mill comedian going by the book. Id love to see him live.
That was nine of the most uncomfortable, hysterically funny minutes I've ever witnessed. I've always maintained that comedy which doesn't make you uncomfortable isn't actually funny-by that measure, Johnny Vegas is a fucking comic genius.
How was that not a kiss, are you blind?! I bet you any money she had wet pants and her tongue in his mouth. He gave her (or her bf) plenty of opportunity to push him away and say no, he waited, and then when no one pushed him away, he took.
@@davidhellewell4241 according to his autobiography, he used to drink every night before going on stage to combat his stage fright. I dunno if this was before or after he stopped doing that.
bloody brilliant !!! had me laughing for ages and i still keep watching it !!! nothern lass...love the humour ! total class xxxx funny how he's escorted of when he 's just starting to expose where charity money really goes ! good on ya Johnney ! continue giving it loads xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
As an American viewer, I get a great comic vibe from the guy and a real sense of fantastic delivery. I just wonder what the bejesus he's saying. (yes, I'm poking fun at my own provincial lack of exposure to different accents, nothing else.)
I agree with your statements entirely. I never meant to insinuate that people who speak like him are uneducated or lower class. I only meant that that's the way most people see it. And yes, propagation of these stereotypes is a negative thing and shouldn't really be done. But Vegas isn't entirely at fault there. I truly think, though, that the man is rather smarter than he's made out to be. All in all, I agree with you on the most part and apologise if I seemed like I was judging anyone.
Not to mention he has a freaking degree. :P But yeah, if it is all an act that he maintains then that is some level of dedication. Some may argue that this is just him being him and it isn't smart, which may be the case, but still. He has had an education which is more than many people similar to his act can claim.
Also, for the record, I don't speak with a "posh-accent". I'm of welsh descent and my accent is faintly welsh. Also, having lived in Greece all my life, my entire experience of the UK is through media and, frankly, that's partially the reason for my lack of judgement. It's not a justification, just a reason. It's hard being bilingual in another country and not knowing where half of you is from and how to contextualise what you see from there properly.
I think he is legitimately drunk, but maybe not as much as he sometimes acts. 'Johnny Vegas' is technically an wild 'character', i think it merged with reality at some points though. His act relies a lot on riffing with the audience in a surreal and drunken state. I think he's great though. In all the stand-up i've ever seen him do I don't think I can pick out a 'routine', all the gigs seem genuinely different. You've got to appreciate that even if he sometimes seems like a rambling drunk.
He has quite a bizarre act. I think you'd have to be smart to put something like that together and survive the gig. The man has to be a lot smarter than the Johnny Vegas 'character' because he somehow pulls it off.
what sort of hateful thing do you want said about you when you pass away? no ones perfect, but at least hes using his gifts/skills. if you dont like something you dont have to put it down. otherwise every fault of your own is fair game. you can make friends in this world, or enemies. i suggest making friends.
I'm guessing he went way over time and they couldn't usher him off because he was stood in the crowd. He said he only had seven minutes. He was way over that by the time she came out to move him.
I honestly don't know what to make of this. Part of my brain thinks it's funny and all an act and another is telling me that this guy is just drunk on stage, like truly, legitimately drunk.
I never realised that Jessica Hynes could be so unfunny. Hard to tell where the deliberate schoolmistress act ended and the echos began of possibly rattled backstage people reacting to Johnny's piece about frittered charity donations. If all an act, too close to the truth to be funny at that stage.
One of the smartest, most underrated comics ever to do it!
Only this man can be so genuinely angry and not lose the comedy performance in its execution . Love you Johnny you really don't care ,brilliant put down for the heckler too!
Watching Johnny Vegas is like watching a trainwreck.
It's so genuine, he just knows how to make a business out of it.
That's the genius of it.

james knox I bet that was bloody amazing. I was four at the time, but I’m so jealous. Fair play to you Sir, prime time Vegas
and they say Vegas lost his edge...
He went over the edge, and now he's even funnier than before because of it
One of the best comedians/actors ever
By the second sentence it's clear to everyone we are watching a genius at work and it's not hidden.
I would have fucking loved to see what happened backstage after that performance haha!
I had a drink with him in Richmond last night. What a great guy. One of the lads.
That's the way to ease your way into a gig Johnny 😂😂 absolute genius ..with a bit of coral blue
Oh man, a league above everyone else 👏👏
Johnny is the master the gift of laughter is like a crane 🏗 that lifts you
Out of depression
comedy at the very cutting-edge. a masterclass.
"Fucking skiing" had me laughing.
Imagine Johnny being a wwe wrestler his promos would be savage
Gotta love Johnny Vegas
He sold his wedding photos to Viz magazine for one pound, he genuinely did.
yeah got the mag
And they were beautiful.😢
Missed the last train home seeing Johnny. There was no choice. I wasn't going to leave.
I am bored with observation comedy and benign acts; Vegas is unique and vastly under-rated.
Every panel show he's on is ace
Vegas live was genius.
@@jimbob9262 'You look like a badly mended teapot, that's been knocked over by an overactive nephew.' lol
Under rated by who?
@@LouiseTaylor-ub5zq Relative to other comics enjoying more ticket sales, obvs.
A comedian pushing all the right buttons. He knows what he's doing. He's fucking with you. Utterly brilliant.
Imagine Johnny, hosting the Oscar's !?! 🤣
Imagine Oscar, hosting the Johnny's!?! 🤣
Bit of a masterpiece here.

Johnny Vegas cures my depression
The biggest fucling comedic genius ever with the biggest heart.Utter fucking genius.
Johnny is someone different he rips laughter to bits
Brutally brilliant.
Holy christ that woman enjoyed herself. Demonstration of absolute heroic power, resonates deep within
Absolutely righteous stuff. I would have loved to be in the green room with the other comedians,
6:39 - He pooped his pants.
Could be sweat?.....he is wearing leather and under pressure pissed...
It's sweat
Man. This act feels like it belongs in 'Network'. Brilliant
One of the funniest comedians ever.
Man I gotta get me some of those snazzy threads! I'll be stylin'!
That was great, thats what we all want, someone making a total arse of themselves, instead of some mediocre run of the mill comedian going by the book. Id love to see him live.
Lenny Bruce reborn. Brilliant to see someone so honest.
I am seeing Johnny Vegas live tonight!
How was it?
That was nine of the most uncomfortable, hysterically funny minutes I've ever witnessed. I've always maintained that comedy which doesn't make you uncomfortable isn't actually funny-by that measure, Johnny Vegas is a fucking comic genius.
One of the funniest men in Thatto Heath.
I don't know who followed him, and I don't care. Could've watched another hour.
Love you Johnny! Loved your performance in "The Libertine"!
wanker hes about as funny as a fucking heart attack
Whatcha talkin boot, he's foony as fook!
jesus shaves This coming from the guy whose username is 'jesus shaves'. You must be a right comedy legend mate...
Owen C Q. What do you call an anorexic girl with a yeast infection??
A. A quater pounder with cheese.
Man, I love that you used someone else's joke to prove how unfunny you are. Classic.
Hey babeh, it's for chariteh, give i'gh up fur Vegas! Cos I'm the greatest! 'Specialleh wi' grave-eh! Yum yum!
He’s like a pile of washing that’s somehow become sentient !
no they are having a go at me,for providing folk with great comedy!.
I reckon they should make a show of all pissed up stand up comedians
Nice description..
Do you even know what you have uploaded here?

Peak Vegas...
aaaaaaand off to rehab!
i think hes a genius.
That was brutal kissing that blokes Mrs!! 🤣
It was one of the funniest things Ive ever seen!
@@tahiramasood8447 I would not be sitting there laughing if that were my Mrs
I pray that he doesn't die soon.
yeah seen him live a few times,dont think he writes anything,just goes off on a comic rant!!
haha pretty awkward at parts. but what a clever guy
His stuff is outrageously funny and inventive ,maybe the moist or most
inventive comic
best rant ever, pure vitriol. perfect
This looks like the 18 Stone era!
love him , he's the gratest
i cant understand everything hes saying as an american..but i still love him just because hes so raw. so unlike other comedians
Absolute livid genius.
He didn't kiss her tho did he. He had his hand which kinda shows it was a performance. A very clever, funny and spontaneous one at that.
How was that not a kiss, are you blind?! I bet you any money she had wet pants and her tongue in his mouth. He gave her (or her bf) plenty of opportunity to push him away and say no, he waited, and then when no one pushed him away, he took.
love this guy.
The fact that he's drunk is the best thing in the world
It's part of the act
@@davidhellewell4241 according to his autobiography, he used to drink every night before going on stage to combat his stage fright. I dunno if this was before or after he stopped doing that.
The 'Asian Tsunami Appeal'.
I don't see the appeal in a tsunami if I'm honest.
bloody brilliant !!! had me laughing for ages and i still keep watching it !!! nothern lass...love the humour ! total class xxxx funny how he's escorted of when he 's just starting to expose where charity money really goes ! good on ya Johnney ! continue giving it loads xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
An exceptionally talented man.
sightinsight bravo!
Tell it how it fooking is! ;)
As an American viewer, I get a great comic vibe from the guy and a real sense of fantastic delivery.
I just wonder what the bejesus he's saying.
(yes, I'm poking fun at my own provincial lack of exposure to different accents, nothing else.)
Wenches want me gets u tht XD

Jonny vegas speeking the truth.
Brilliant.
The benchmark
my god
thanks for sharing :)
He’s fuckin ruthless
He is a fucking genius XD
Beast mode comedian.
I agree with your statements entirely. I never meant to insinuate that people who speak like him are uneducated or lower class. I only meant that that's the way most people see it.

Whaaaat the f did I just watch!
Back when a drunk comedian could force a kiss on someone and everyone would laugh. Now, someone says a naughty word and their career is destroyed.
Great!!!
harsh , but funny to watch from home ;)
Not to mention he has a freaking degree. :P But yeah, if it is all an act that he maintains then that is some level of dedication.

When they took him off that was part of the act right?
Fuck me! Amazing.
