The blog of Michael K.
Via Youtube, here's my current favorite reclining gay German celebrity interviewer (yeah, the field is really wide open there, I'm sure) Torgen Schneider, aka Torgen am Morgen.
These are rather fun to watch. I love how his repertoire of questions is pretty much the same every single time, beginning with the all-too-disarming opening one-two regarding attitudes towards cryogenic preservation and sweatsuits. Of course I should also mention his pronounced tendency to interview celebs in bed - see his interviews with Chuck Palahniuk, Michael Buble, not to mention his epic six-parter with Chris Isaak - part one here:
This is the furthest thing from a grilling, yet I think you can estimate a celebrity subject's general coolness by their willingness to play along and have fun. The Rock? Awesome. Liza? A doll. Nick Lachey? Meh.
