I imagine getting heckled with Bo Selecta quotes when you’re buying groceries or hanging with family would affect you after all this time.

I honestly wouldn’t remember him if it wasn’t for Bo Selecta. He only had a couple of songs that did well to my memory. You have to be able to laugh at yourself. It was funny because it was so ridiculous, he isn’t even from Yorkshire. Different time we are in now though.
He's not buggered about it. But he needs to bring it up so he has something "controversial" in interviews otherwise he'd have nothing to talk about. His PR team use his Bo! Selecta image as something to use in interviews etc. If he was an awesome musician/singer/songwriter, he wouldn't be talking about it but he NEEDS to talk about it
@itsnothinglong1 why was it offensive? It looked nothing like him apart from the headphones! And he doesnt have pet Kestrel or Yorkshire accent ffs. Its surrealist if anything. The bloke just has a fragile ego
Yes, he tried to engage but people kept on hassling him. It was sad, I’m from Southampton and he was a really nice kid. Really polite and friendly, well known and liked for just being a really nice guy. Glad he’s doing well.
There was also absolutely nothing racist about this portrayal of Craig David. It was a surreal parody of celebrity culture. Craig David is definitely not from the north of England and doesn't have a kestrel. However, I would say the parody of Trisha crossed the line. Anyway, he was picked on by Leigh Francis because he was a successful celebrity, like all the other celebrities mocked by shows like Dead Ringers, Star Stories, Alistair McGowan, 2DTV etc etc. He should really take it as more of a compliment. As for being bullied. This is not bullying at all. I assume if CD is so fixated on this, he hasn't really experienced real bullying.
Trisha was one of the funniest characters. For the same reasons you mentioned for Craig David. That it was just nothing like her at all and was surreal and silly. Is it because he used a Jamaican patois for the character? If he made her Scottish it would have been fine I'm guessing. Ridiculous. It was funny then, and it's even funnier now that all semblance of humour has been sucked out of everything. How come Michael Jackson didn't cross the line too? He used a stereotypical black American accent for MJ. At least be consistent.
Without Bo Selecta this guy wouldn't even be on this stage talking. The show kept him in the publics consciousness, kept him relevant - don't bite the hand mate!
Thing is he took it way way too seriously. No one was realistically a huge fan of Leigh Francis and a load of other celebrities also got ridiculed on the series too and didn't perceive its impact in the same way . When the show ran it's course and got decommissioned, no one really cared after it went away as viewing numbers had dropped and it had run its course and people moved on from it. He was overly concerned about it when in reality I don't actually think it had any effect on his record sales or music career because people still liked his music. What had happened is he had just made some poor choices in terms of the songs and albums he was making, and the producers he worked with and had not had the same success as he earlier music which meant he had become less popular musically, and he was wrongly attributing it in some way to bo selecta.
What a big baby. Bo selecta was gold and let's not forget Craig himself appeared on the show. He only gets upset about it when his career is slipping for some publicity.
What? Naturally alot of singer dwindle over time. Either life or other interests or maybe the industry don't really make their style of music etc. That being said , celebrities go through alot likely when the sort of shows that persisted in the uk make fun of them. Like the jokes were insane. Little britton is another example of madness. Funny but when you look back its crazy the sort of things some of these people say actually are.
he used to look proper bo with kez on his arm I tell thee.......Moving to america may have been a mistake Craig if stone and parker see this you are gonna miss BO Selecta
Doesn’t he understand parody. During the Spitting Immage period, celebrities craved to be included, and saw it for what it was. What a big girls blouse this guy is. 🙄
He put a black rubber mask on, yeah thats cause your black the same as if he was doing Elton John he would put a white rubber mask on. Not sure what his point it
It’s funny how Craig David never had any issue with Lee wearing the mask or mocking celebrities when he himself appeared on series 2 of bo selecta and even invited Lee dressed as Craig David to perform on stage at the royal albert hall because I was there when he came out on stage to perform the song rewind with him
Hilarious at who’s expense though? MJ and Becks were larger than life. That small show was never gonna crush them but Craig coming off a successful debut it made him into a National joke. It was brutal at that time I remember. Funny but brutal on his image
@ismaeladen2582 I really don't think that's true, it's a commonly believed myth. David still had a good career and the only object to his career was his shit, annoying music.
@@ismaeladen2582I was going to donate 10 quid to a homeless veteran with cancer and mental health issues, but you have convinced me to donate it to the handsome, rich, talented, famous and successful victim, Craig David, instead.
If he didn't have this to talk about, he wouldn't be relevant whatsoever. What else would people actually be talking about Craig David for? Nothing. These interviews keep him relevant and he's milking it
bo selecta was funny as fuck. this guy takes himself too seriously. mel b is still mates with him and found it funny. yes people took the piss out of each other 20 years ago lad, get over it. 'disempowering' - nah. its called taking the piss. this is the problem with people that go into music industry fulltime at a mentally young age, they don't realise there's a real world out there where people go to work all day and want to have a laugh about stupid stuff. all the best to this guy either way
I feel for the guy. Craig David is an incredible artist, and clearly a sensitive person. It’s not that he’s wrong, but the way to deal with it is not to hold on to all the bad feelings. 20 years on, that’s you choosing to. Just let it go and lean into it. That disarms it instantly. That which we resist, persists.
So to recap, multimillionaire artist who lives in luxury in Miami, was very mediocre at best, had a couple of middling hits, wanted desperately to be famous and be an 'entertainer' in the public eye is thin-skinned, defensive, takes himself too seriously, and now whines like a baby about satire, and essentially blames it for tanking his career. Got it.
What ? You mean the man's music didn't make it big at all during the early 2000s? For him to even be made fun of to begin with by a comedy show? Idk If you remember why he was actually big back then. Like many young "smooth" attractive fellas who sing. He was one of them abd it likely made him big initially. Just like justice timberlake, Justin beiber, usher etc etc.
Craig it was only jokes mate but you never got rinsed by Ali G but david did(And David still cant speak). You should of been putting music out regardless ,but you chose not to so don’t blame anybody for your own mistakes craig
If bo selecta didn't have him in the show he would not be sitting talking about this. He would have been bigger than Michael Jackson. His talent was amazing and that show deffo pulled him down. He then had to rip off a U2 song called one to get back into the limelight. Anyways I'm off to hospital appointment for my delusional issues I'm having. 😅
Never heard someone come out with as much BS, so Craig is basically alleging that he had to leave the UK to live in Miama because of Bo Selecta lol really ? 😅
The Bo Selecta skit was funny the first and second time, after that it became old and sour ... it went on forever and now Craig is allowed to talk about it forever until he's had his fill.
Fair enough, you'd be annoyed at the show but out of all the things he could have tried to dial in on he goes for the racism card. In what world is the mask racist? Clown

Craigs trying way too hard to link it back to racism to make his point but its bollox.....it was surreal comedy and i am both a huge craig david fan + a leigh francis/bo selecta fan.
@@bwilliamson3887 No reason for disagreeing? Is that how you prop up an arguement? Your empty, pointless comment speaks volumes about you as a person. Leigh has been constantly on our screens for over 20 years. Bo Selecta, Bo in the USA, A showbiz tale. Celebrity juice. Keith Lemon sketch show. He kept edgy humour alive when everyone else cowered to the woke mob. He has provided endless laughter to us and has earned his place in the comedic hall of fame. And he ain’t done yet. Long live Leigh Francis. A national treasure.
@ncollins7213 Wow someone's sensitive. He's not that funny mate. He just imitates celebrities and is crude and crass. Not funny in the slightest, as for genius, deluded.
If somebody made summink that funny about me, I’d feel proud..I’ve never heard Michael Jackson moaning about his caricature, and getting all depressed, and using words like racism and misogyny.. this man appears to have more issues to deal with, than Bo selecta
The UK loves tearing down their celebrities in a very targeted and malicious manner to the point where its not even deemed comedy or entertainment anymore for example Gary Barlow Princess Diana. The denial in this comment section just shows how oblivious you lot are. Craig david is an renowned groundbreaking R&B UK garage legend too bad there are a lot of people in the UK who dont appreciate this fact
If anything Bo Selecta made better known and I don’t know anyone who thought negatively about him because of the character. It was amusing and light hearted, nothing more.
It was an example of the long-lost and now forgotten British art of taking the piss. Now deemed socially unacceptable and probably punishable by sentence to Azkaban
Well because humour like that on a widespread scale is likely the reason alot of celebrities have mental health problems that got demonised until they were honest and open about it 10-20yrs down the line.
The skitt isn't racist BUT the fact that he chose the 2 of the most successful black British music performers and ripped them to shreds.. Keith didn't just joke he made them appear grotesque, stupid etc. Those 2 characters he went soo far with, too far with. I don't remember any other characters but Mel B and Craig because he made them loom so awful. I suspect if you did a deep dive on Keith Lemon you'd find he doesn't have any positive relationships with black people and probably is a bit prejudiced against black people (perhaps unconsciously). To anyone paying attention it was obvious Craig left the country because Keith made him into a joke. Craig was only 21 at the time and Keith a grown man, something doesn't sit right with me about it.
Craig was that upset about it, he appeared on season two. I call Bo!

Genius is going a bit far.
@@bwilliamson3887 No reason for disagreeing? Is that how you prop up an arguement? Your empty, pointless comment speaks volumes about you as a person. Leigh has been constantly on our screens for over 20 years. Bo Selecta, Bo in the USA, A showbiz tale. Celebrity juice. Keith Lemon sketch show. He kept edgy humour alive when everyone else cowered to the woke mob. He has provided endless laughter to us and has earned his place in the comedic hall of fame. And he ain’t done yet. Long live Leigh Francis. A national treasure.
@ncollins7213 Wow someone's sensitive. He's not that funny mate. He just imitates celebrities and is crude and crass. Not funny in the slightest, as for genius, deluded.
@@ncollins7213 Putting a black face on is racist.
@@bwilliamson3887 Says you. Sound like whingeing liberal idiot. Leigh’s accomplishments are there in black and white. You don’t need to agree with me.
CRAAAAAAAIG DAYYYYVID
Pissed himself 😂
If somebody made summink that funny about me, I’d feel proud..I’ve never heard Michael Jackson moaning about his caricature, and getting all depressed, and using words like racism and misogyny.. this man appears to have more issues to deal with, than Bo selecta
Hey Craig think you dropped your sense of humour somewhere
It wasn't supposed to be empowering. It was just silly and childish humour which was hilarious when i was a teenager!
What a crank I tell thee
He didn’t have to try to hard to make him look like a self obsessed fool, Lee is still a top entertainer, not heard of this guy for years
Hope he doesn't get hit by a tornado, then he would know what real pain is.
The UK loves tearing down their celebrities in a very targeted and malicious manner to the point where its not even deemed comedy or entertainment anymore for example Gary Barlow Princess Diana. The denial in this comment section just shows how oblivious you lot are. Craig david is an renowned groundbreaking R&B UK garage legend too bad there are a lot of people in the UK who dont appreciate this fact
You sound fun.
This is proper bo
If anything Bo Selecta made better known and I don’t know anyone who thought negatively about him because of the character. It was amusing and light hearted, nothing more.
CRAAAAAAAIG DAAAAAVID!
Can I get a rewind...... Off to binge watch Bo! clips now...
Wow I love how he plays a victim so well. Kes should have given him a good pecking for being a total snowflake, CRAIIIIIIIG DAVID
The absolute nonsense coming out of his mouth is why he had the piss taken out of him.
He was just mad that it ruined his image
Yeah he was only about 21 too
Proper Bo I tell thee!
Craig was brilliant. You can't take that away from him. But he even went on this show as a Cameo. Craig Davis?
Ikr
Waiting for Kes to appear on a string.
It was an example of the long-lost and now forgotten British art of taking the piss. Now deemed socially unacceptable and probably punishable by sentence to Azkaban
Well because humour like that on a widespread scale is likely the reason alot of celebrities have mental health problems that got demonised until they were honest and open about it 10-20yrs down the line.
The skitt isn't racist BUT the fact that he chose the 2 of the most successful black British music performers and ripped them to shreds.. Keith didn't just joke he made them appear grotesque, stupid etc. Those 2 characters he went soo far with, too far with. I don't remember any other characters but Mel B and Craig because he made them loom so awful. I suspect if you did a deep dive on Keith Lemon you'd find he doesn't have any positive relationships with black people and probably is a bit prejudiced against black people (perhaps unconsciously). To anyone paying attention it was obvious Craig left the country because Keith made him into a joke. Craig was only 21 at the time and Keith a grown man, something doesn't sit right with me about it.
omg...Bo Selecta was so so so funny.
Mel B was all part of the character that Leigh Francis played. She loved it.
Crab paste!
