Damon Albarn created an uncomfortable but funny moment on The Graham Norton Show after calling out host Graham Norton live on air.
The singer appeared on Friday’s episode alongside Adrian Lester, Leo Woodall, Stephen Graham and Kaley Cuoco.
Albarn was on the show to promote Gorillaz and their upcoming tour, which is set to stop at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in June.
During the conversation, Albarn suddenly pointed out that he hadn’t been invited back on the show for a long time.
“You didn’t invite me back,” he said, calmly sipping his drink. Norton quickly responded, “Well, you’re here now.”
Albarn, however, then reminded Norton of a time at a nightclub where he asked the same question earlier.
Norton then appeared confused and said he had no memory of it, joking that he must have been drunk.
Albarn laughed and replied that it must be one of those nightclubs.
Norton, furthermore, admitted that he may have blocked access because of clumsiness.
The exchange apparently made the audience laugh and quickly became one of the most talked about moments of the episode.
Despite a difficult start, Albarn remained relaxed and the show quickly continued, keeping the mood light and playful.
