"Rove"


There is one TV show in Australia that I try to watch every week on Sunday. It’s called “Rove” and is the Australian late-night talk show equivalent, except that it’s on Sunday evenings.

(Side note: All other Australian television is rubbage. It’s either Big Brother, which is literally on 15+ hours a week, old US shows, or very bad sitcoms)

In any case, Rove opens with some jokes and then starts off with some interviews of celebrities and sports stars. In the last part of each interview, he does a bit called “20 questions for $20”, which is a rapid-fire set of questions in 60 seconds. He always sprinkles one question in that always catches American guests by surprise – “who would you turn gay for?”
Will Smith's answer was George Clooney, and I really don't know what to make of that.
