His routine needs the audience to play along with him, and play along they do. I think a lot of ladies have a fondness for Johnny. A lovely man in real life, with principles, and compassion, and a very intelligent man and unique artist. We adore him.

      he's not a recovering alcoholic. He just quit drinking. He needed booze to get on stage and perform in the early days, but so do a lot of rock stars and DJ's until they eventually expand their comfort zones and find that alcohol is no longer helpful and more of a hindrance.

    Dont worry guys, you won't hear a bad word said about Johnny Vegas... He's a great guy, no bad press, his stage persona isn't his real life persona. He's a genius of 'in the moment' comedy. Critiques bless him with the tagline of 'A Comedians comedian' because even the best one liner stand ups appreciate him for never telling one liners, or even jokes, just a whirlwind of on-the-spot creativity on stage. Legend.

    You boys are slowly coming to terms with the fact that the Uk is on another level to USA in terms of music and comedy. We are a very grounded nation and as you've learnt in the past, nothing is off topic for British comedians. Johnny Vegas is a legend, he goes off on so many tangents on such surreal subjects it really is class. You should delve into this rabbit hole and if there are any dislikes it won't be from British people that's for sure. Spencer you need to realise mate that we don't get offended by this stuff, politcal correctness can go swallow a load as far as UK people are concerned in the main, we have this ability to be able to differentiate what's a joke and what's not, not that I'm saying you don't but a whole lot of your compatriats don't share this ability unfortunately.

    Johnny Vegas aka Mike Pennington is a angel. A true sweetheart bloke, his personal history is really quite tragic and it formed this second person in him. Johnny isn't an alter ego it's a legit spilt personality and is formed from Mike's rage at his own insecurity and dark stuff that happened to him. I highly recommend you read or listen to his autobiography.

    Really enjoying the channel, discovered you yesterday and really enjoying it. Love to see our British culture and comedy reaching people who wouldn't ever encounter it without the internet. On a side note, Vegas is a legend and it's very safe to support him. He's actually a decent guy, amazingly funny though with his "horrible drunken b**tard" character.
