"oh we don't wanna do that" - The voice is just right.
I love Cleese's reaction to it as well
It would make for an entertaining music video
HannaJo He knows it was coming. Look at how he turned around as he was delivering that line. Genius. Just fun. No cry babies here.
Will Jones I love John Cleese. But this kind of boring old joke is so far beneath him. Yawn.
No, it was perfect.
The sheer bluntness of John Cleese is amazing.
hahaha beautiful!
Would've loved to see Ms Swift try and defend the unpredictability of females up against Cleese's wit.
He's just being British !
He would have fit in well with the Game Of Thrones aesthetic.
And he has a FAT CAT NOT Healthy 4 the cat 🐱
Cleese was giving her the old “she’s a dumb blonde, let’s see if she can keep up” treatment and you could see how much he enjoyed it when she gave it right back haha. And she was initially looking at him like he was just a sweet innocent old man 😂 They clearly underestimated each other
Perfectly worded lol
Taylor is a bit dumb tho
I don’t think he was giving her the ‘dumb blond’ treatment; he’s just teasing her. Thankfully she picks up on his unique sense of humour. What a riot he is.
@@frz7553 You say that based on what?
@@frz7553 you mean, you?
John Cleese laughing open mouth at Taylor’s comeback was epic! I like their interactions a lot in this
It's got to be a great feeling to make a professional comedian laugh.
Strange what a sassy duo John Cleese and Taylor Swift make.
entertain7us14 we need a show for those two, like Snoop and Martha Stewart
These duos/trios are born at Graham's shows like no other
As a man, when you get old, you can say whatever acerbic thing is on your mind because you stop caring about what women think. It's one of the great benefits of aging. At the same time, however, you continue to respect women who can take real sarcasm and give back with charm. I think that is what's happening here. Cleese is sort of testing her, and she's passing with flying colors.
She is an idiot totally confused by what was going on.
@@cisium1184 It's a man.
Thank you, John for not being afraid to make jokes and poke fun..... and thank you, Taylor for picking up the sarcasm and running with it.
Shes angry clearly
Yeah completely "triggered"
She didnt tho lol
She was going along with it so well
High Yoda actually no, she was just playing along with him
If it had been 5 years later, he would've insulted Taylor Swift's movie Cats, too.
thats what I thought this was about lol
everyone will 💀
She was barely in it. It's hardly her movie.
@@thatgirl4652 She was at cat school more than anyone else.
@@ireallyreallyhategoogle she knew that the movie was awful, she was for fun, because se loves cats
“Ohhh we don’t wanna do that.” 😂😂😂😂
How quick was John Cleese....."How did it have the accident?".....absolutely Brilliant!
Rob Roy She's a clueless little brat
***** If you haven't seen her videos or watched her lip-sync in concert, then you may want to reassess your opinion. And that's all I got on this subject.
+RR C. Gosh ... how do you know her ? Where did you guys meet? !
Would've been even better had it actually been clever or funny
Rob Roy
Kevin Pietersen is not a massive fan of cats, John Cleese is a fan of massive cats.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
For some reason, this reminded me of a joke:
What’s the difference between a circus and a sorority house?
A circus is a cunning array of stunts.
shoulda been
John is not a massive fan of not massive cats
@@user-ck9lm6xi1o That's the funniest thing I've ever read
@@user-ck9lm6xi1o What's the difference between a baby and a seagull?
A seagull flits across the shore.
Cleese was right tho - Taylor smiling thinly and saying "OOH we don't want to do that" is about the most cat-like thing I've ever seen a human do.
She has transformed into one
Yes! If she did that not on purpose - ok, if there's 1% that she did that on comedic purpose - she's a genius.
Just get a water spray bottle.
I don't think there is anything she couldn't do "thinly". Someone should tell her to eat every now and then. It's scary...
@@mbrackevashe’s totally healthy. Everyone has different body types . Also better than being obese
Love how can see Taylor suppressing her anger at 0:50 when he says its the weirdest cat he's seen in his life!
but it is though. It's the awful pug equivalent
This breed is called a Scottish Fold.
@@SammyMakepeaceIt’s not weird, it’s just British
@@emmalynn877scottish
@@Alexa-ly8jy Unfortunately, they are still a part of Britain.
Taylor had such a deadly look in her eyes when John was making fun of her cat, he's going the right way to getting a scathing song written about him.
Let her, so that her stupid fans will rejoice! Untalented singer if there ever was one. And her fans eat it all up like idiots.
CosmicUndeadElf Most of these broads songs are ghost written by men, some artist you may even know.
ROAD To The Top She jacked that from Mariah Carey's 05 hit "shake it off" composed by Jermaine Dupri.
CosmicUndeadElf dude u killed it
Neo X gay men ?
0:34 that "what?" is the best thing i ever heard xD
Seanachie's Court
''Best thing you've ever heard.''
Really?
and the death stare that came with 'what?'.. 😂😂
@@susmitasarkar9321 the patience this woman has
I just love her comeback! As others have said, I'm not her demographic and don't know many of her songs, but I really do enjoy seeing her on TGNS - she comes across really well.
If you ever want to dive deeper, folklore and evermore are great albums, not her typical hits
Taylor Swift's comeback was sharp, witty and beautifully timed.
and she proved his point lol
@@ltq8842 You realize she got that it was a joke and pretended to be furious, right? She could barely stop herself from laughing to put on that furious face.
She's all pretend....
How is "oh we don't want to do that" witty?
@@slayerhuh404 exactly my thought lol
2:58 look how John is enjoying her reaction! In fact he made her shine here - he's such a great guy!
@Mike Morbuk I took it more as he was mimicking what she was doing moving away from pieterson because he's not a cat lover but you may be right
@@Welsh_Dragon756 No, he's not right. He's an idiot who missed John following Swift's lead, then literally pointing at the anti-cat guy and joking he didn't want to be anywhere near him.
i dont see how he made her shine but ok
@E.F. R. er..no, it wouldnt be "just sit there and promote".
shes usually funny and smart/thoughtful in her interviews so i dont know how you came to that conclusion.
@E.F. R. dude have you taken your meds today?
yea i replied anyway maybe because i dont care if you despise her(?) im just giving my opinion, you can leave the internet if you dont like it when someone likes taylor swift lol.
but you seem bitter, so i'll stop now
Ah 'harsh' British humour. The one thing that induces stupid arguments in the comment section.
John Cleese is a legend.
He is a total pratt.
Except he wasn't funny
American just don't understand our humour the same way I don't understand their loud simple humour. Just because you don't find him funny doesn't stop the fact that millions find his dry, blunt humour funny.
John Cleese was being mean, ironic and old-fashioned on purpose (I mean look at his ironic cat joke which I am quite certain was set up beforehand between them ) and Taylor Swift tried to play the straight ( not perfect but she has no comedic background) . I am sure it was good fun for both of them.
pete smyth so why Graham Norton has a picture of John Cleese's cat ready for deployment?
Taylor is superbly perceptive and has the intelligence to see through all the bluff and sarcasm.
Man Taylor looks absolutely stunning
With her weight gain now she looks damn hot and gorgeous now. 😍
She always look gorgeous. What you think she's rich and beloved just off the strength of her vocal talent? She can co-write a catchy bubblegum pop song, if that's your jam, but she's not exactly Mariah Carey or Barbra Streisand.
@@ca8824 haha she has an incredible voice and has legit proved she’s the best songwriter in the industry by writing one of her most well regarded albums all by herself but sure pit women against eachother
@@andrewfraser.6529 yeah tell me all about how non-feminist I am MR ANDREW.
@@andrewfraser.6529 “pit wOmEn agAinsT each OthEr”, stfu stupid white knight, it’s really cringy and childish to turn every situation into a gender issue
I'm not the biggest fan of her music, I do like it, but I adore this woman's personality she always makes me laugh. That deadlocked visage with the edgy facetious humor just slays me
And those legs
What's not to like in her music?
@@ayush9791 She’s gone woke with her more recent tunes, but some of her older material is pleasant
@@harrambou9468 let's try folklore
she often comes across as a robot, not spontaneous at all. So I dont like her music nor her personality.
.....now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time....
+celt67 Ah - i like you
+celt67 Hahaha!
Thank you
"what a strange person".
*everybody: who cares about Taylor Swift?* *You don't understand British humour* (weird because humour is supposed to be universal, but ok.)
*People not noticing: (in the end)*
*John: you're amazing*
*Taylor: thank you*
is this what he says exactly? im trying to figure out....
You're really funny...that's a huge compliment coming from him. She kept up though, held her own and he loved it haha
@@royaniv yep he said that
Thankyou I replayed it so many times trying to get it👌
Answering sarcastic humor with sarcastic humor.. she held her own.
"Ooh don't wanna do that" in a sing song fashion. It cracked him ( and everyone else)up
Graham is such pure class.
Him & Cleese together - brilliant.
They were all just having fun. Taylor knew he was joking. If you watch the full interview you'd see they were all hilarious, especially Taylor. Great episode and I absolutely love Graham Norton now.
No. There's tension, because Taylor is weird. She's too uptight and can't take a joke and makes a mountain of every negative comment. Typical covert narcissist. Times ten.
@@dailybls tell us youre an offended at everything gen y'er without telling us.
John Cleese leaning over and telling Taylor Swift that he thinks she's really funny is one of my favourite moments of GN ever.
I thought he said coolio
He actually said jfk killed tupac
I replayed it so many times trying to find out what he said because it seemed like it was him giving her an honest compliment👍
Cleese said “you’re really funny” to which she replied “thank you”
@@philgraham8213 No, he said "You're really funny" - just saying...
He's brilliant and he knew she'd reciprocate the humour. They were great together.
What a legend. Still playing the game, and with Taylor Swift.
Ironic if you think Taylor Swift doesn't get Cleese because of his dry sense of humor. She got it and played right back perfectly. He knew it, and if you watched the show, they even commented to each other about it at the end.
What did he say at the end for her to say thank u?
@@stevelee7785 he said "you're really funny" which Taylor took as the huge compliment it is, coming from John Cleese, and thanked him for it.
These four people were completely on the same level, and taking different roles. Brilliant.
poke smot?
@@theinternetkilledmusic2054 Yuck Fourself...
@@theinternetkilledmusic2054 Toot Shourself...
1:01 lol Taylor's expression seeing John's cat 😂
I just watched her most recent interview from Graham 5 years and an album later and she's obviously SO much happier now and I love that.
I love how she played along😂😂
You can tell at 00:50 that Taylor had one of those moments where someone insults something you have and/or love... I have those a lot. You can tell by her expression.
2:25 she’s moving in for the kill 😂
I grow more fond of Taylor as she matures. Cleese is the master of sarcasm and she held her own.
"Oooh, we don't want to do that." 😂😂😂😂
Don't mess with Tay Tay.
Yes, he was shaking in his boots for sure
Some complain about Cleese's comments. Others complain about Swift. People just like to hate in general.
and you like to hate people, who likes to hate, so you're one of us, welcome home!
This comment👏
Orion, you are right. These days people have lost loads on their skin and are so super sensitive and getting worse than a snowflake.
Taylor sucks
@@vleaky3430 you're the people orion is talking about.
“Is...is that a proper cat?” 😂😂😂
"Oooh we don't wanna do that."
I love her sooooo much.
U should give her your bank account details if u love her. That's what people who love one another do. I bet you're a huuuuuge liar so you won't.
I hate her... that's it
@@metoo6247 brilliant lol
Shes so pretty but has the I.Q. of a carrot
The_gifted_one that's insulting to carrots
Insult??? It was tease. The man is a comedy genius and loves to create a bit of mischief on these type of TV shows. He did what he normally does.... made a statement which he is well aware will not be appreciated by the intended target, to see what sort of response he will get. i.e. will she take the bait?
He turned and looked her straight in the eye, with a twinkle in his, letting her know for sure that she was being teased and was expected to respond. To her eternal credit, she looked him straight back in the eye, with the hint of a smile and a twinkle in hers, that said "I know what you're doing", and then delivered her well chosen response, with perfect poise, grace, comedic effect and timing.... much to the delight, amusement and admiration of Mr Cleese. ( He can clearly be heard to compliment her afterwards.)
what? this comment is beyond weird
+hectorhamish ^ Someone who actually gets it. People are being way too overly dramatic about this interview.
She fell for it hook, line and sinker.
Don't try to fool anyone to the otherwise.
I couldn't say it better myself. People don't know just how smart Taylor is, and their bias to her, make them blind.
@@Gambit771 how did she "fell"?
We need more Taylor on British shows she fits so well
2:48 you don't wanna do that
ooh you dont want to do that! xD i love you taylor
You saw the glint in her eye after she answered him☺love her
I love John Cleese and Taylor Swift, both very talented people.
This was very funny.
"The one on the left .. that's my wife."
🤣🤣🤣
Love that girl! "Ooh we don't want to do that." I nearly wet myself.
+goatboyful When she said that, I was thinking she decided who she was going to sing about next.
Down south (in the Us) I heard this phrase a lot. It, and I might be wrong, is when you said something unnerving that could start conflict. It was mostly said by women wanting to keep their composure but was annoyed by the comment made.
Mostly, I heard mothers say it to children or wives to husbands. And mostly in public situations. It was one way of saying, "You just picked a fight and neither of us really want to go there so refrain from the topic." It is like saying the phrase, "Don't go there."
Yessss!!! When she said that, I was like, #Oop!! Go Taylor!! Yess!!!
+James Morris That's the impression I had too!
She's quite witty.
The title of this video should be "John Cleese has never heard of a Scottish Fold."
There's a dirty innuendo somewhere in there
@@exo4rcist3 Yeah, Scots are stereotypically obese, there's a few folds of skin to get through before you can find anything that even half resembles a vagina.
Of course he has, he is a cat lover. John Cleese is a 'comic' people, from Britain, where they love 'edgy' humor. Have you ever watched British comedy? This is right out of the book.
WTH with these comments hating on both of them
They were such an iconic duo and the comments ruined it
I love this. She even looks and moves like a cat in this.
"Oh we don't wanna do that, imma write a song about it!" XD
Absolutely the best Taylor Swift talk show appearance of all time.
Those LEGS
@@user-fu2mi1nd5l Yeah, the lady does have AWESOME legs. She needs to change her stage costumes though, so that they have a higher cut on the leg to show them off more. 😜
John Cleese never stays in the comfort zone, he likes to sail close to the wind and isn't afraid of triggering people. Half the fun is the constant unpredictability of what he will say next.
That was best couch on show..
Three different personalities from different fields...
this is friggin hilarious!! “is that a proper cat?” 🤣🤣
This is one of the best episode of the show. Humours flying around.
The fact that that she made John Cleese laugh says a lot
Love his pink socks, pairs so well with the color shoe 👌🏼 lol
I usually don't like weird cats like that but that one is really cute
I adore John constantly moving away from Taylor
I'm not a fan of Taylor but I thought it was incredibly rude. What did she ever do to him?
He's a comedian. a very famous and respected one. It's just a joke.
he's worried the blandness talentlessness is catching..
He (and she) are moving away from Pietersen after his remark about his allergy.
lmao how can stupid people be 😂😂😂
TAylor is so self-contained. She doesn't react. She responds. Beautiful.
0:51 Yelp i got mad too 😂😂😂
"Ohhh, we don't wanna do that"
ohhh yes we do
Only good response lol
She’s gone woke in recent years but she’s got some wit, I guess
@@harrambou9468 The opposite of "woke" is "ASLEEP" - just saying.
"Is that a proper cat?" Hilarious!
I will never get tired of watching this
out of all the "Taylor once said" this is my favorite
in every video taylor's in the comments will always have people hating on her for no reason seriously get a life
Y I K E S
It's a natural reaction to stupid people who worship her excessively.
@@jshepard152 its really not
@@jshepard152 so if someone was saying that you were a god. YOU are the person that deserves hate. Cool sure
Is that a proper cat? That is a classic line there. Love how she just roled with it.
All three were gracious guests!
"Is that a proper cat?"
hilarious!
Aww I feel sorry for Taylor, most Americans don't normally understand our harsher humor, she probably thought she was actually being made fun of on TV. While in actuality John was simply joking.
I was just thinking the same thing but, she'll get it or someone will tell her next time lol
Please, Clesse's humor is so dated and far from original. The grumpy act has been used for decades, he's got nothing on people like Rodney Dangerfield or Doug Stanhope...alas the brits always think what they do is unique.
CowLunch Read again...and try and use some comprehension skills, Sally
Hector Ayala Ah I shouldn't have used the word epitome. You said the grumpy act was dated and unoriginal, and then cite Doug Stanhope but he is a grumpy act too. I have not heard of Rodney Dangerfield, will have to check him out. I guess you win this one, Margaret.
Rodney Dangerfield died a couple of years ago. One of the funniest stand-ups around. You should check him out on UA-cam, especially his appearances on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson.
"How did it have the accident?"
John Cleese: When the joke teller is just too sharp for the audience.
Can u explain i didn't get it
Let’s not kid ourselves it was an iffy set up. It’s one of those setups that feels too real.
He shoulda just started with the next line
@@harrambou9468 Imagine being stupid enough to believe that these interviews are completely scripted - well, you don't need to imagine but my point still stands.
Wow. This deadpan delivery “How did it have the accident?” Completely caught her off guard.
Wow.
This whole interview was priceless!
oh god bless taylor 😍😍😍 I fell in love with her for her sassiness, she's amazing 👏👍
"oh no you don't wanna do that" OMG I JUST DIED
like how can someone have such a sweet voice? 😃
@@hezzajm She did die, I went to the funeral. I don't know whose idea it was to have clowns to lower the coffin to the ground, one of them slipped and fell into the pit. Well, at least she wasn't buried alone, she'll have Mr. Bojoing to keep her company for all of eternity. Catering was top notch, though.
Why she's telling we don't wanna do that???please explainn
Gyrbae thanks from the grave, glad u had a good time. Food is a must.
Palani Ammal compare women with cats, as they are "unpredictable and..."
When she puts her hands up like paws when he mentions cats, is just adorable.
Taylor at the end was brilliant lol
How was she brilliant i don't get it.
@@maheshrathod5593 That's because you are a wee bit more than a wee bit stupid - just letting you know...
@@maheshrathod5593 That's because you are, quite breathtakingly, stupid - just letting you know...
John Cleese, just for what you did here, you're my hero !!!! I can't stop laughing
Did I watch this clip wrong? All I'm seeing is John Cleese providing his classic brand of humor (which I LOVE), and Taylor Swift being either a fairly good sport or a pretty durn good straight "man." That's it; the end; moving on to the next clip!
The Mind Of B it's called joking around
krnstrong read The Mind Of B's comment again. This person wasn't bashing. They know it was joking around. The comment is short & sweet and right on target.
The Mind Of B I don't get it either. All I see is a clueless little brat
RR C We all got that you have spammed the comment section with the same comment, geez. Get a life
I have a life, and a wonderful and amusing one at that. Apparently the millions of Zombies that have glommed on to this minuscule episode, of which she has no clue who she is sitting next to, is why I continue to remind everyone that she is a clueless brat. Untalented to say the least, a voice range of a hermit crab, and the personality of an Aunt who passed away 4 years ago to the month. The young lady in question reminds me of the dead portion of my Aunt, in case you were wondering. God rest her soul. Taylor's, that is.
"Ooh we don't wanna do that".. perfect comeback 😊
Her face when she sees his cat 😂😂😂😂
When Taylor scoots towards you... ugh
She looks amazing!
Just when you think Taylor has no sense of humor she comes back with a zinger "Oh we don't wanna do that" that was cute.
Taylor just sitting there innocently listening to her cats being shamed😂
Hahahaha the end of the clip...
Brilliant.
when she said " ooh we don't wanna do that" i think Graham Norton when meow or rawr or some claw movement
@3:03 Cleese leans over after her response "Oh we don't want to do that", and says "you are really " and she replies "Thank you", I can't turn my headphones up high enough to figure it out, plus the audience cheering.
You are really funny. (You're welcome)
I think it's "You are really cute."
My God she is amazing, so classy ❤ Loved her reply to John.
i loved both his comment and her reaction xD it was perfect!
It's so funny seeing the difference in the comments on this channel and those on the exact same clip on the BBC America version of this channel. Over there all the comments are about Cleese's "sexist comments" and here it's all about Swift's "dumbness".
I don't really have a position on this. Having now seen then show in its entirety I thought it was one of the best Norton shows in recent times. It all seemed to mesh. I just find the difference in reactions to this clip very interesting.
She made me laugh! 😂😂😂❤️
Best Episode ever.
Graham's reaction at 0:38 tells you everything, that's js just dry British humour.. love it
John Cleese is legendary and bloody hilarious
Great interaction between John and Taylor. She's got a proper sense of humor. Good for her. Cleese is king.
"The reason it isn't here tonight is because it didn't want to come."
Taylor Swift: *computer error noises*
🤣🤣 You gotta love John Cleese! He is hilarious! 🤣
Taylor is so gorgeous
