That's what happens when you try to throw jabs n insult Hollywood leading actors. Her jab right before the touchy touch was not well received. He looked to make her feel uncomfortable
The applause Richard Gere got was...well, let's just say that I somewhat respect him for his artistry but John Malkovich is so ridiculously talented and completely understated, bringing a level of such emotional depth (or lack thereof) to his characters that it's surprising neither the crowd, nor Graham focused on his achievements more than they actually did. Not to mention he has an amazingly intriguing voice.
Völundr Frey That may be well enough true. I generally love Graham Norton - when he's NOT trying to be funny. I'm not a fan of his slapstick comedy during the intros and sometimes he shows pictures of people, making comments that are just down right offensive, and I think it's tasteless of him. But when he's just talking with guests and cracks a joke, I tend to find those actually pretty funny. Beyond that, I've never taken much notice of the audience to be honest.
Stfu you clearly haven’t seen richard in pretty woman he was fucking talented, leave the man alone. Also I can think of dozens of other men with a voice better than john’s
He is a Great Actor. I will watch John Malkovich in any film or show he is in !! Talented, Brilliant an Amazing Actor . Also love the actress on the sofa in Hana I thought she was Brilliant !!
Mohamed Mohamed People like who they like which is why Kylie Jenner has more money, fame and followers than all three combined. Beats me, but, that's the world for you.
I would have saved my thunderous applause for John Malkovich alone. Gere is ok but come on, people, Malkovich is a rare, extraordinary talent with a divine voice. And I find him (both in his younger days and now) the sexier of the two.
Oh he's definitely aged well. There's some sort of sex appeal there.. I mean I'd still prefer Mario Lopez but I bet JM is more attentive in the bedroom
I think Richard was being deliberately rude about the questions cause grahams people are such good researchers, they always nail it! Also, the crowd thing at the beginning was so narcisist and desperate.
I don't think it's his researchers, I think they ask the guests or their agents in advance about some funny stories they can talk about. Most of the guests already know what Graham is talking about even before he finishes his sentence.
The audience’s reaction to Gere’s creepy “walkabout?” They reminded me of the crowd at the World Darts Championships- and they’re all as pissed as arseholes!

99% of the guests he has on, love it and seem more relaxed then on most talk shows, some guests are on more then most (James Mcavoy, Michael Fassbender, Jessica Chastian and Daniel Radcliffe who always seem to be on lol but have a great time). But you get the odd one or two who just don't feel comfortable with it, Gere been one and them type of guests do ruin it and make it impossible to watch. He's known to be bit of a dick and he came off as one on this. Even Robert De Niro, who's known not to be the easiest interview, has been on the show a couple of times and has a good time. Surprised this is Saoirse only time on Graham's show, hopefully she be back on 2018 with Lady Bird's release in the U.K. The two big actors he's yet to have on his show, have been Leo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy, Hardy's been on Alan Carr a load of times and Jonathan Ross too, yet no Norton appearance bit strange as he seems up for a laugh.
I could listen to John Malkovich all day. I don't know if he realizes how funny he is, or if he's just that great of an actor to be funny while pretending he isn't being funny and make it look natural. Either way, he's a master at what he does.
Never figured Gere for someone who’d be so full of himself. From walking in in that slow motion to walking into the audience to cosying up in the lap of a woman - even if she was delighted to have him in her lap - to petting the Saoirse to making the whole show about himself - when there is a far more accomplished actor sitting on the same sofa, and when he is the only one who is not an Oscar nominee on that sofa - it’s just one big disappointment watching this man. I don’t think Nights in Rodanthe will ever be the same. Oh well, it will be. There’s Diane Lane in it.
Is John Malkovich not THE world renowned John Malkovich in England? This really messed me up. One of the best actors of all time, a true chameleon, and yet he doesn't get as much "appreciation" as the rest of the couch??? WTFF?
I love how john says the craziest things with a really chill attitude, that part about mr will had me wheezing Graham really should have focused more on john than richard, i wanted to hear more
Yes! I was watching and just kept saying (louder and louder) "Why is he touching her?! Why is he touching her?!" And then I scrolled down, and am glad so many others thought the same thing :)
hes kinda a creepy guy. maybe you guys dont remember, but he was kinda kicked out of india for being somewhat inapropriate with a 16 year old bollywood star.
@54v115 and @AndrewG - I know! what is cringeworthy about it? He knows he is loved by his fans. Also, I saw the entire show but not once did I notice Richard being inappropriate with Saoirse. He was sitting so far away from her. They only sat close when Taylor Swift joined them. what are people talking about? I had to watch the show twice to check but nothing.
Other American and British talk show hosts have mentioned how masterfully he's perfected the multi-guest interview. I never through about it until other professionals in the industry point it out. Love this guy!!!
Saoirse is so done with being touched by the creepy old man that she tries to get Taylor to come sit next to her. She's got as much room as possible between her and him. All these people in the comments saying no such thing happened: So every single one of us that independently saw it, was revolted, and then came to the comments to discuss it... we're the ones that are blind?
especially when graham brings up her being 13 at her first oscars and he proceeds to reach over and flirtatiously stroke her arm while biting his lip 🤢🤮
We've all noticed creepy richard. This show is taped, shortened and edited several days before airing... If this is what we noticed, imagine how much they had left out?
+Dracopticon He's being a creep and is just another older man who is being very inappropriate to a younger woman. There's nothing new here to learn, it happens all the time IRL.
"... being very inappropriate to a younger woman" - You know, I am myself 52 years of age and can say that my latest 5 and a half year relationship was with a gorgeous 22 year younger girl. So I know all about society's way of looking at "inappropriate attention" from an older man. The years we had together was a bliss, and I dare say for us both. It was her younger friends who in the end told her "no you can't be in a relationship with an older man" that very much made it end. That is TRUE meddling and messing where they have no business at all.
JonBenait06 nah i didn't see that movie yet bro but i think i'm gonna have to agree with you i mean no offence to the fans but i think richard gere really likes to creep young girls lol
+JonBenait06 You should. That's a disgusting and possibly incarcerated worthy way of thinking. Not incarcerated in jail but like a mental institute to keep you away from the teenagers.
I can see why you prefer girls to women. It's quite obvious from your comments that older and wiser women would have too much good sense to sleep with you. Probably you can't get laid by anyone who can actually read and string a basic, grammatically correct sentence together.
Young girls???? She's 19 in this show (now 22). That's a woman in anyone's book. A 'young' girl is perhaps 9 or younger; 'girl' until post puberty. Unless you're a middle aged or older woman, then anyone younger than yourself is a 'young girl' in order to try to shame any man who wants anyone younger than herself.
I just love Taylor's energy, so bubbly, adorable and funny. She looks Beautiful too! Also learned from the comments not a lot of ppl like Richard Gere lol
Just because you didn't see what 90% of everyone else saw doesn't make it projection... It just wasn't what you saw. And that's ok but I mean if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and everyone on here swears it's a duck... Maybe it's worth wondering if it's a duck... @@anitawebster9450
I don't think she was... I don't know what she normally does but she almost seemed out of key on the first couple of words... Which I expect in the beginning of live performances... Which is why I assumed she wasn't lip syncing... coulda been tho who knows@@RussiaIsARiddle778
nah, not really. this is just your imagination, really she clearly looks to see how far back the couch back is before putting her elbow on it .. because she looks to the left -- whereas Richard is sitting on her right
Seeing this interview 7 years later I can say I’ve never seen Saoirse act this way. She’s usually very down to earth and fun to be around. Richard was being a creep and made her feel uncomfortable.
@Thisis Fun are you secretly Richard Gere, or are you just defending him cause you do the same thing to women without caring you make them uncomfortable? Cause i really can’t tell from the 100 comments you wrote. Lmao men have one thing and its the audacity
@@user-mt5ed7jp4q As a woman myself who have faced creepy behavior all my life, I fail to see any creepiness here. I have watched the show several times just to check what you all are talking about. Zilch! People are reading too much into it.
@@Jasmine_Sangma It's clear as day at 08:30, she is very uncomfortable and ends up sitting further away from him as the night goes on, and leans away from him too. 99% of the comments say it was creepy, so if you don't "get it" then that's an issue with you.
@Thisis Fun yea cause there were 4 people on the couch then so obviously there was less room so she HAD to be closer to him dumbass. he literally stroked her back without her consent and she clearly side eyed him but cause she was uncomfortable. stop defending that old ass man you fucking weirdo. people like you are a waste of space
For anyone debating the Richard Gere Saoirse moment, she was asked about it on a local Irish Radio interview and all she said was “there was a lot of back rubbing” then she side-stepped the hosts convo about how he’d just split with his young Brazilian wife at the time then said “yeah there was a lot of back rubbing... it was fine”. She also mentioned that Malkovich and Gere were already in the Green room, in deep convo, when she arrived so she didn’t go in and interrupt. Therefore she didn’t know either person, the only actor she did complement was John on the radio interview, and she did kind of intimate the “lot of back rubbing” was odd for her. I thought maybe he was talking to John behind her back, maybe fixing her top, maybe wanted to get her attention about something, but all she walked away from that interview aware of was that a man she did not know was rubbing her back a lot. That’s just not ok people. When you add the very confident, somewhat as* attitude towards even the host, it comes across aggressive not just unaware
I think Richard Gere is known to be a bit of a creep. I recall Winona Ryder also making unfavourable comments about him back when they did a movie together.
Yeah I think most of us feel she didn't appreciate whatever he was doing. But 100% going to find this interview you're talking about. I love that She and Graham are both irish, I wish they talked about that more. Her.... Irish Accent.... is so endearing!!! She can do no wrong. I saw Hannah when it first came out and neeeever made the connection that, that was her until they showed a pic on this show. She's literally the best. Yeah at one point, I did think he was trying to get her attention but for sure was a strange way to do it.
Uri Nation It wouldn’t surprise me. If he does that sort of thing live on TV to a celebrity god knows what he does behind closed doors to women of lower standing.
Oh I think so ....even if he's done nothing else but creepily touch young Saorise , his creepy mind, those actions alone put him there - disgusting #TimesUp #metoo
Gere was entirely inappropriate. Notice Saoirse kept leaning away from him. In fact, she very casually scooted over, close to John. Then, after Taylor's performance, he managed to get very close to Soairse on the couch, and DID IT AGAIN. 🤬
These comments are unbelievable. Why are people always looking for the negative. Richard Gere was funny, friendly and very personable, and he is recognized by many around the world. People love the movies he played in. Let’s stop the hateful comments.
Tbh those two don't belong on graham's show, he's generally outwardly offenseive, expressive etc. He was GREAT with marylin manson lol. And Chris Rock. He tends to so quite well with people with personality. Course mainstream it-now ppl will be booked for views, attracting a more diverse demographic etc. I prefer him as him, though. And people who'd get it. Basically, interesting people.
@@CaptainAMAZINGGG they were both very young and don't necessarily go into lesbian sex jokes, especially within an environment a bit unfamiliar. That doesn't mean they don't have a personality or that they are not interesting. Glad that you don't have any problem with an old creepy predatory Richard Gere though.
Body language can really say more than words sometimes. Saorise was really uncomfortable because of Richard and she keeps on leaning away from him and moving furher away, closer to John. And the way she looks at Richard when he talks, the fury in her eyes. Because she keeps on moving closer to John, she is obviously more comfortable with him. And when she looks at John while he is talking, she has a lot softer and sweeter look in her eyes. Richard is a fucking creep and I feel so sorry for her
Hilda Jónsdóttir i think women are sometimes more attracted to a humble, gentle man, which is not Richard Gere, he's more into himself and probably thinks he entitled, hence the stroking of the young lady. He would be called a creep.
I liked Richard Gere’s performances in such films as “Bloodbrothers,” “American Gigolo,” and “An Officer and a Gentleman.” I remember seeing a news report on the death of a prominent actor in NYC. I believe it was a story on the great Lauren Bacall’s death. Anyway, the tv need crew was filming celebrities as they were entering the funeral home for Ms. Bacall’s wake. Richard Gere comes down the street, dressed very casually in a sports coat, jeans and no tie, kind of bopping and kvelling before he entered the funeral home. I thought he seemed to be somewhat affected and even flippant, considering the sad nature of the event. And, yes, Richard did seem very creepy in his physical contact with the young and lovely Saoirse Ronan on “The Graham Norton Show.” No wonder, she shifted so noticeably away from Richard Gere and towards the likable and more gentlemanly John Malkovich. Seeing Richard Gere almost caressing Ms. Ronan on this show, reminds me of seeing an American president caressing young women and even young girls. Truly an infamita, as the sage Vito Corleone would say in disgust
This video gave my chills. Gere touching that young women, who clearly felt molested by it, was painful to watch. It is like watching The Lovely Bones all over again.
As soon as he started stroking her back, her entire body language indicated she was uncomfortable. She it literally leaning as far away from him as she can as the show progresses. Use your freaking eyes.
Unwanted, non-consensual physical contact between strangers is ALWAYS harassment at the very least. This is borderline groping, and yes, very inappropriate. He's acting like a conceited chauvinist who can do what ever he likes. Ronan is clearly disturbed by it, body language and eyes tell that.
Unwanted, non-consensual physical contact between strangers is not ALWAYS harassment, get serious. Jesus, have we come to this as a society; where every single thing is somehow an offense? If I walk up to a crowded bar at a pub, put my hand on the shoulder of a person to get their attention so they can make room at the bar, that's not "harassment" if they don't want me to do so. If I walk up and grab their ass, that is. Intent matters. You cannot make blanket statements.
Graham Norton is like if you took the best parts of what every American talk show host wanted to be and put them all in one person. Well done GB. Jolly good.
This Graham Norton is very funny and witty. I`m a new fan. John Malkovich, always been a fan, but did not know how funny you are. Loved Saoirse in Brooklyn.
8:12 Saoirse pity giggles as John,Graham and the audience openly laughs at Gere's story 8:19 She says "but you are probably talented the most because you didn't get nominated?" 8:22 Graham "oh, you look at that. Every cloud. Every cloud." Richard smiles and looks at Graham, the audience and then Saoirse. She makes a smiling impish frown one does as a child caught being cute but doesn't want to be seen as such. 8:27 Graham "but then, but feel - Saoirse, you were 13, *13 years old* , when you were nominated 8:30 Gere literally feels Saoirse's back 8:31 Saoirse rigidly nods with a curt " mm" and eyes squint 8:35 she's nodding, eyes close, blink and then opens looking at Graham 8:38 Graham "pop on your frock off you go" ; she gives a short laugh 8:52 Saoirse scratches her side. Speculation could say she's irritated or she was just now itchy. Throughout the video, Saoirse sat closer and leaned more toward John. I also noticed that Richard doesn't go near her voluntarily after Taylor's performance. We can imagine that he was warned. However, she is the only one that can say whether she felt offended or victimized. My money is on Saoirse. She's Irish and has had martial arts training. She can fuck anyone up that tried to push her. I can say what I would feel like in her situation but that would be my feelings and not hers. I don't like being touched without my consent but I also take into consideration others intent 25%.
I usually love Graham's show, but I was just pissy through this one. I had an intense desire to introduce my fist to Richard Gere's face the whole time.
@Yemima Hutapea ryan reynolds and will smith, jennifer lawrence and eddie redmane, benedict cumberbatch and eddie redmane, jeremy renner and mark ruffalo are a few great ones
You can obviously see how Richard Gere is just sopping up the attention. Both Saoirse and John seem a bit underwhelmed by Geres antics. I feel a bit of cringe from looking at this because I honestly came here for Saoirse and john, Richard was an added bonus for the first five minutes.
This is such a weird mix, because John seems like the most stuck up guy and yet he is so humble and a great story teller. On the other hand you would think Richard is charming, but he has a terrible memory, he is off putting, and he is too full of himself and boring at story telling,
I thought he was a bit drunk ( maybe ) but then his creeping on Saoirse was too UGGH! For me to handle, I love how John interviews though, kind of like a proper interview but down toned. I just think Gere is strange now.
John Malkovich speaks at a negative speed, I love him

Steff R. Hahahaha, “at a negative speed”, lol!
@@HelgaCavoli idk it's comforting

He is a Great Actor. I will watch John Malkovich in any film or show he is in !! Talented, Brilliant an Amazing Actor . Also love the actress on the sofa in Hana I thought she was Brilliant !!
Grahams show is so much more engaging than the other popular talk shows, especially here in the US.
I want a movie with John Malkovich, Jeff Goldblum and Christopher Walken... just so I can hear them talk to each other with their distinct cadences
Love Christopher Walken. That would be awesome.
How adding the venerable William Shatner to that trio of fine actors?
I can just see Mr. Shatner invoke his Captain James T. Kirk persona.
Add Peter saarsgard to see how he sound exactly like malkovich

Poor Graham! He carried it off well tho. I'm surprised Taylor didnt get Saoirse in her Bad Blood crew.
This, I would love to see!
I love John Malkovich he is a humble genius
I could listen to John Malkovich all day. I don't know if he realizes how funny he is, or if he's just that great of an actor to be funny while pretending he isn't being funny and make it look natural. Either way, he's a master at what he does.
lol all day? so then just 3 stories?
Never figured Gere for someone who’d be so full of himself. From walking in in that slow motion to walking into the audience to cosying up in the lap of a woman - even if she was delighted to have him in her lap - to petting the Saoirse to making the whole show about himself - when there is a far more accomplished actor sitting on the same sofa, and when he is the only one who is not an Oscar nominee on that sofa - it’s just one big disappointment watching this man. I don’t think Nights in Rodanthe will ever be the same.
Oh well, it will be. There’s Diane Lane in it.
Is John Malkovich not THE world renowned John Malkovich in England? This really messed me up. One of the best actors of all time, a true chameleon, and yet he doesn't get as much "appreciation" as the rest of the couch??? WTFF?
I love how john says the craziest things with a really chill attitude, that part about mr will had me wheezing
Graham really should have focused more on john than richard, i wanted to hear more
What was Richard doing there with his hand.... like why, WhY, WHYYY?!! It made me uncomfortable, poor Saoirse.
ikr just watching this through a screen I was like "get away from her dude!"
Yeah it was creepy... I was like have some class dude
At the precise moment it was mentioned she was 13 back when...
Yes! I was watching and just kept saying (louder and louder) "Why is he touching her?! Why is he touching her?!" And then I scrolled down, and am glad so many others thought the same thing :)
hes kinda a creepy guy. maybe you guys dont remember, but he was kinda kicked out of india for being somewhat inapropriate with a 16 year old bollywood star.
body language says it all. Saoirse is leaning away from gere as hard as she can.
Delphineaux Mustardwater the proof is after getting up then sat back down even closer to John...
So is Malkovich. Pause on 18:04 and you have the whole story.
Delphineaux Mustardwater yeah. She notices richard is about to molest her🤔
@@loonylinn8824 As soon as Graham said the words 13 years old!
08:28
John Malkovich--one of the best American actors living today! Loved him in
Red and Red 2. He was adorable and brilliant!!!
Taylor Swift's Red is a great album too. John Malkovic was very good at "Dangerous Liaisons" (1988) and "Burn After Reading" (2008).
John Malkovich is great though, as is Saoirse Ronan.
Does anybody else watched this just to hear Soirse Ronan talk?
jesus...that little walk around the crowd by richard gere was cringeworthy...but not quite as cringeworthy as his fawning over saoirse
Cringeworthy for you maybe - but not for his fans... you need a little context in your thoughts...
way was it cringe worthy?
@54v115 and @AndrewG - I know! what is cringeworthy about it? He knows he is loved by his fans. Also, I saw the entire show but not once did I notice Richard being inappropriate with Saoirse. He was sitting so far away from her. They only sat close when Taylor Swift joined them. what are people talking about? I had to watch the show twice to check but nothing.
If he saw her with no makeup, the lastbthing he would do is fawn
She's hardly wearing any make-up in this video....you TROLL!
That was a strong cosby vibe there, mr Richard.
I love John Malkovich! He's just so delightfully different than everybody in the room. It's refreshing and hilarious!
I thought Saoirse and Taylor together were very sweet.
I hope Taylor, Saoirse and Kelly hung out together after the show ☺️☺️
I love her Irish accent!
Graham is FLAWLESS at integrating &
SHARING time with each of his guests. 💙
Other American and British talk show hosts have mentioned how masterfully he's perfected the multi-guest interview. I never through about it until other professionals in the industry point it out. Love this guy!!!
Saoirse Ronan is just irish perfection personified. Ireland's pride and joy and my all time favourite actresses
I need Taylor and Saoirse to hang out
Love John there in the middle looking at Saoirse and Talylor endearingly and awkwardly while they're talking... He's so cute
38:40 i want more taylor and saoirse interactions theyre so cute i love them sm
Saoirse is so done with being touched by the creepy old man that she tries to get Taylor to come sit next to her. She's got as much room as possible between her and him. All these people in the comments saying no such thing happened: So every single one of us that independently saw it, was revolted, and then came to the comments to discuss it... we're the ones that are blind?
Yeah, Gere was defo being an auld nonce here.
especially when graham brings up her being 13 at her first oscars and he proceeds to reach over and flirtatiously stroke her arm while biting his lip 🤢🤮
@@jennym7786 I thought he meant it sweetly as in good for you doing so well at 13. I just don't see him as creepy, he's one of my favorites.
We've all noticed creepy richard. This show is taped, shortened and edited several days before airing... If this is what we noticed, imagine how much they had left out?
Just love John here. So funny and the way he tells a story is hilarious. Keep going sir
Perhaps at 25% faster though?? No? I like that he has a cadence but juuuuuust a hair quicker would be good.
Love to see Saoirse and Taylor together.. but Mr Gere's action is so annoying.. such a creep! good thing Hanna didnt punch him!
Yeah, too bad Mr. Gere was there, loving the attention a bit too much and the others were much more funny and interesting.
+eleyisme Yeah "how dare he", Mr. Gere is such "a creep". Please just learn a bit about life please.
+Dracopticon He's being a creep and is just another older man who is being very inappropriate to a younger woman. There's nothing new here to learn, it happens all the time IRL.
Yeah, because you definitely live in the real world, not your mom's basement, lit only by the flickering light of some shitty gaming rig.
"... being very inappropriate to a younger woman" - You know, I am myself 52 years of age and can say that my latest 5 and a half year relationship was with a gorgeous 22 year younger girl. So I know all about society's way of looking at "inappropriate attention" from an older man. The years we had together was a bliss, and I dare say for us both. It was her younger friends who in the end told her "no you can't be in a relationship with an older man" that very much made it end. That is TRUE meddling and messing where they have no business at all.
richard gere is really creeping on saoirse ronan man lol
JonBenait06 nah i didn't see that movie yet bro but i think i'm gonna have to agree with you i mean no offence to the fans but i think richard gere really likes to creep young girls lol
+JonBenait06
You should. That's a disgusting and possibly incarcerated worthy way of thinking. Not incarcerated in jail but like a mental institute to keep you away from the teenagers.
+WixkedLovy Nothing mentally ill about older men preferring women at their hottest age.
I can see why you prefer girls to women. It's quite obvious from your comments that older and wiser women would have too much good sense to sleep with you. Probably you can't get laid by anyone who can actually read and string a basic, grammatically correct sentence together.
Young girls???? She's 19 in this show (now 22). That's a woman in anyone's book. A 'young' girl is perhaps 9 or younger; 'girl' until post puberty. Unless you're a middle aged or older woman, then anyone younger than yourself is a 'young girl' in order to try to shame any man who wants anyone younger than herself.
I love Saoirse Ronan,she is such a great actress and her accent is great.
ALWAYS! why does no one talk about this more... She's so adaptable.
You can tell how uncomfortable she is with him with the fact she leans her body so far in the opposite direction of him
Leave richard alone, asshole
John Malkovich is So Funny! And one of the best actors ever, by the way.
I just love Taylor's energy, so bubbly, adorable and funny. She looks Beautiful too!
Also learned from the comments not a lot of ppl like Richard Gere lol
Right? I feel like I watched a very different episode than many people in here. 🙄 Talk about projection! 😆
She was lip syncing the whole time and very poorly, I might add.
@@RussiaIsARiddle778 she never lipsyncing lol
Just because you didn't see what 90% of everyone else saw doesn't make it projection... It just wasn't what you saw. And that's ok but I mean if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and everyone on here swears it's a duck... Maybe it's worth wondering if it's a duck... @@anitawebster9450
I don't think she was... I don't know what she normally does but she almost seemed out of key on the first couple of words... Which I expect in the beginning of live performances... Which is why I assumed she wasn't lip syncing... coulda been tho who knows@@RussiaIsARiddle778
I wish the late night shows in the states were like this. It's just a 5 minute interview with someone and then they're gone.
i love the way everyone noticed when he was touching her back at 8:30 but not when she clearly looks back at his hand before sitting back at 41:31
Wth that was even creepier
nah, not really. this is just your imagination, really
she clearly looks to see how far back the couch back is before putting her elbow on it
.. because she looks to the left -- whereas Richard is sitting on her right
John has a future in stand up, he just have to answer any question and it turns into a new material everytime.
This Taylor Swift performance was great!
Malkovich stories are my fav ASMR now
Perhaps Graham Norton wasn't misinformed; perhaps Richard Gere just has developed early onset dementia. 😂
Seeing this interview 7 years later I can say I’ve never seen Saoirse act this way. She’s usually very down to earth and fun to be around. Richard was being a creep and made her feel uncomfortable.
@Thisis Fun are you secretly Richard Gere, or are you just defending him cause you do the same thing to women without caring you make them uncomfortable? Cause i really can’t tell from the 100 comments you wrote. Lmao men have one thing and its the audacity
@@user-mt5ed7jp4q As a woman myself who have faced creepy behavior all my life, I fail to see any creepiness here. I have watched the show several times just to check what you all are talking about. Zilch! People are reading too much into it.
@@busimagen Nope.
@@Jasmine_Sangma It's clear as day at 08:30, she is very uncomfortable and ends up sitting further away from him as the night goes on, and leans away from him too. 99% of the comments say it was creepy, so if you don't "get it" then that's an issue with you.
perspective.
I love seeing Graham!! He is always good for a laugh!
Why is Gere stroking her back at 8:33?? She looks scared.
More like "WTF IS HE DOING"
Isn't Graham actually ordering him to "feel" (her) at 8:26?!
Lubbylove89 she doesn't give a fuck
Yeah. Wouldn't surprise me if allegations about him surface soon.
Im convinced he creeped her out backstage because her whole body language/face/choice of words screams loathing.
John malkovic’s level of legendary status is on another level
Saoirse looks uncomfortable next to Gere.
Malkovich is hilarious!
*Richard Gere starts talking*
Me : 😲 ...😒...😴😴😴😴
Really don't like Richard gere after watching this! Bless graham he's trying so hard
Leave the man alone, stop being a bully
YES! What an unpleasant self inflated man. I liked him before watching this. Team Graham Norton all the way!
I think he did great, you can tell he doesn't do a lot of interviews!
saoirse couldn't truly smile the whole show after Richard Gere touched her
@Thisis Fun yea cause there were 4 people on the couch then so obviously there was less room so she HAD to be closer to him dumbass. he literally stroked her back without her consent and she clearly side eyed him but cause she was uncomfortable. stop defending that old ass man you fucking weirdo. people like you are a waste of space
I noticed it immediately, when he was caressing her arm, very creepy.
I noticed that too. It’s sad and angering. She’s so uncomfortable
How can you not love Saoirse. Beautiful, amazingly talented and that accent
Richard Gere is a knob, John Malkovich is a legend.
For anyone debating the Richard Gere Saoirse moment, she was asked about it on a local Irish Radio interview and all she said was “there was a lot of back rubbing” then she side-stepped the hosts convo about how he’d just split with his young Brazilian wife at the time then said “yeah there was a lot of back rubbing... it was fine”. She also mentioned that Malkovich and Gere were already in the Green room, in deep convo, when she arrived so she didn’t go in and interrupt. Therefore she didn’t know either person, the only actor she did complement was John on the radio interview, and she did kind of intimate the “lot of back rubbing” was odd for her. I thought maybe he was talking to John behind her back, maybe fixing her top, maybe wanted to
get her attention about something, but all she walked away from that interview aware of was that a man she did not know was rubbing her back a lot. That’s just not ok people. When you add the very confident, somewhat as* attitude towards even the host, it comes across aggressive not just unaware
I don't understand, sorry, just want to know in radio interview is she feel uncomfortable with Gere or not?
@@dddddd5960 she definitely did. But in Hollywood you can't call out huge A listers like Richard Gere without jeapordizing your career :/
I think Richard Gere is known to be a bit of a creep. I recall Winona Ryder also making unfavourable comments about him back when they did a movie together.
Yeah I think most of us feel she didn't appreciate whatever he was doing. But 100% going to find this interview you're talking about. I love that She and Graham are both irish, I wish they talked about that more. Her.... Irish Accent.... is so endearing!!! She can do no wrong. I saw Hannah when it first came out and neeeever made the connection that, that was her until they showed a pic on this show. She's literally the best. Yeah at one point, I did think he was trying to get her attention but for sure was a strange way to do it.
John's story about the woman in the garden is comedy gold...
SHE IS STUNNING !! and so composed
Richard Gere needs to stay away from Saoirse Ronan she's a gift from the gods not a gerbil !
I wonder if Richard Gere is in the same club as Harvey Weinstein
Uri Nation It wouldn’t surprise me. If he does that sort of thing live on TV to a celebrity god knows what he does behind closed doors to women of lower standing.
Leave richard alone, asshole
You’re incredibly delusional and what you said was 10000% false
@@iknowexactlywhoyouare8701 are you his mom
Oh I think so ....even if he's done nothing else but creepily touch young Saorise , his creepy mind, those actions alone put him there - disgusting #TimesUp #metoo
saoirse should have been put with other some what younger people..
+dyantha bogerd Why, so she could seem more relevant?
Did I say anything about her being more relevant? To me she seems uncomfortable sitting there
Nah, she can hold her own with any age group. The problem was simply Gere. Even Tom Cruise doesn't come off as such an entitled prick.
Hey Taylor’s younggg
dyantha bogerd she’s uncomfortable because richard gere touched her. i don’t think she has problem with graham and malkovich
This was the best GNS, I have seen!!! Thanks for posting :)
Gere was entirely inappropriate. Notice Saoirse kept leaning away from him. In fact, she very casually scooted over, close to John. Then, after Taylor's performance, he managed to get very close to Soairse on the couch, and DID IT AGAIN. 🤬
These comments are unbelievable. Why are people always looking for the negative. Richard Gere was funny, friendly and very personable, and he is recognized by many around the world. People love the movies he played in. Let’s stop the hateful comments.
Saoirse and Taylor! 👏 I need more of them 💗
I, of course, don't dislike Taylor swift but I would never ask to hear one of her songs and even I'd like to see more interaction.
I love that Saoirse and Taylor ignore that “girl on girl action” comment from Graham
Tbh those two don't belong on graham's show, he's generally outwardly offenseive, expressive etc. He was GREAT with marylin manson lol. And Chris Rock. He tends to so quite well with people with personality. Course mainstream it-now ppl will be booked for views, attracting a more diverse demographic etc. I prefer him as him, though. And people who'd get it. Basically, interesting people.
@@CaptainAMAZINGGG they were both very young and don't necessarily go into lesbian sex jokes, especially within an environment a bit unfamiliar. That doesn't mean they don't have a personality or that they are not interesting. Glad that you don't have any problem with an old creepy predatory Richard Gere though.
Body language can really say more than words sometimes. Saorise was really uncomfortable because of Richard and she keeps on leaning away from him and moving furher away, closer to John. And the way she looks at Richard when he talks, the fury in her eyes. Because she keeps on moving closer to John, she is obviously more comfortable with him. And when she looks at John while he is talking, she has a lot softer and sweeter look in her eyes. Richard is a fucking creep and I feel so sorry for her
being a sex symbol goes to actors heads Hilda, i reckon he just assumed Saoirse likes him
Noticed this as well. Malkovich is very warm and genuine. Gere was making her feel uneasy.
Hilda Jónsdóttir i think women are sometimes more attracted to a humble, gentle man, which is not Richard Gere, he's more into himself and probably thinks he entitled, hence the stroking of the young lady. He would be called a creep.
Leave richard alone
I liked Richard Gere’s performances in such films as “Bloodbrothers,” “American Gigolo,” and “An Officer and a Gentleman.”
I remember seeing a news report on the death of a prominent actor in NYC. I believe it was a story on the great Lauren Bacall’s death. Anyway, the tv need crew was filming celebrities as they were entering the funeral home for Ms. Bacall’s wake. Richard Gere comes down the street, dressed very casually in a sports coat, jeans and no tie, kind of bopping and kvelling before he entered the funeral home. I thought he seemed to be somewhat affected and even flippant, considering the sad nature of the event.
And, yes, Richard did seem very creepy in his physical contact with the young and lovely Saoirse Ronan on “The Graham Norton Show.” No wonder, she shifted so noticeably away from Richard Gere and towards the likable and more gentlemanly John Malkovich.
Seeing Richard Gere almost caressing Ms. Ronan on this show, reminds me of seeing an American president caressing young women and even young girls. Truly an infamita, as the sage Vito Corleone would say in disgust
malkovich malkovich, malkovich malkovich
Aussie Bloke malkovich malkovich malkovich... malkovich
This video gave my chills. Gere touching that young women, who clearly felt molested by it, was painful to watch. It is like watching The Lovely Bones all over again.
As soon as he started stroking her back, her entire body language indicated she was uncomfortable. She it literally leaning as far away from him as she can as the show progresses. Use your freaking eyes.
why are you defending him on every comment? do you do that to girls and now feel offended by the criticism?
And Atonement as well.... ewwwww
Unwanted, non-consensual physical contact between strangers is ALWAYS harassment at the very least. This is borderline groping, and yes, very inappropriate. He's acting like a conceited chauvinist who can do what ever he likes. Ronan is clearly disturbed by it, body language and eyes tell that.
Unwanted, non-consensual physical contact between strangers is not ALWAYS harassment, get serious. Jesus, have we come to this as a society; where every single thing is somehow an offense? If I walk up to a crowded bar at a pub, put my hand on the shoulder of a person to get their attention so they can make room at the bar, that's not "harassment" if they don't want me to do so. If I walk up and grab their ass, that is. Intent matters. You cannot make blanket statements.
richard gere was so annoying.
This is the most uncomfortable GNS I have ever seen. Richard Gere is just so rude to Graham.
Graham Norton is like if you took the best parts of what every American talk show host wanted to be and put them all in one person. Well done GB. Jolly good.
richard gere is so full of himself, i felt disgusted watching this. john malkovich, legend.
You forget what a big deal he was for such a long time
Fuck off you delusional miserable fuck and leave richard alone
Really well done, ev'ry single video. Graham is one of the best...who or what ever in internet. CIAO
Even Malkovitch is leaning away from Gere 😅
I looovvve John Malkovich...he's so funny. I wish I could shake hands with him someday lol.
john malkovich! got to love that man, such a talent!
This Graham Norton is very funny and witty. I`m a new fan. John Malkovich, always been a fan, but did not know how funny you are. Loved Saoirse in Brooklyn.
8:12 Saoirse pity giggles as John,Graham and the audience openly laughs at Gere's story
8:19 She says "but you are probably talented the most because you didn't get nominated?"
8:22 Graham "oh, you look at that. Every cloud. Every cloud."
Richard smiles and looks at Graham, the audience and then Saoirse. She makes a smiling impish frown one does as a child caught being cute but doesn't want to be seen as such.
8:27 Graham "but then, but feel - Saoirse, you were 13, *13 years old* , when you were nominated
8:30 Gere literally feels Saoirse's back
8:31 Saoirse rigidly nods with a curt " mm" and eyes squint
8:35 she's nodding, eyes close, blink and then opens looking at Graham
8:38 Graham "pop on your frock off you go" ; she gives a short laugh
8:52 Saoirse scratches her side. Speculation could say she's irritated or she was just now itchy.
Throughout the video, Saoirse sat closer and leaned more toward John. I also noticed that Richard doesn't go near her voluntarily after Taylor's performance. We can imagine that he was warned. However, she is the only one that can say whether she felt offended or victimized. My money is on Saoirse. She's Irish and has had martial arts training. She can fuck anyone up that tried to push her. I can say what I would feel like in her situation but that would be my feelings and not hers. I don't like being touched without my consent but I also take into consideration others intent 25%.
sav3
He did it a couple years later with a other actrice or singer..
I usually love Graham's show, but I was just pissy through this one. I had an intense desire to introduce my fist to Richard Gere's face the whole time.
@Yemima Hutapea ryan reynolds and will smith, jennifer lawrence and eddie redmane, benedict cumberbatch and eddie redmane, jeremy renner and mark ruffalo are a few great ones
Anything with Miriam Margoyles. Trust me on this
@@reinoutvanrespaille6217 also Jennifer Lawrence and James McAvoy episode. That episode was funny af!
@@thatgirl4652 yes! Jessica Chastain and Matt Damon is a good one too
@Yemima Hutapea Also check out Matt Damon with Bill Murray and Hugh Bonneville. Greg Davies with Ryan Gosling.
You can obviously see how Richard Gere is just sopping up the attention. Both Saoirse and John seem a bit underwhelmed by Geres antics. I feel a bit of cringe from looking at this because I honestly came here for Saoirse and john, Richard was an added bonus for the first five minutes.
This is such a weird mix, because John seems like the most stuck up guy and yet he is so humble and a great story teller. On the other hand you would think Richard is charming, but he has a terrible memory, he is off putting, and he is too full of himself and boring at story telling,
I thought he was a bit drunk ( maybe ) but then his creeping on Saoirse was too UGGH! For me to handle, I love how John interviews though, kind of like a proper interview but down toned. I just think Gere is strange now.
yep John doesn't talk much, but when he does your just hanging on waiting because you know its going to be good.
Thanks so much for posting.
My favorite red chair story ever! It's worth going to the end of the video just to see it.
