Gary performed at Harvey Weinstein’s 2014 Pre-Oscar Party last night, and here are some excerpts on how it went down
Quote:
Amazingly, at the end of the Neverland set I looked across the room and saw Oprah, Bono from U2 and Meryl Streep leap to their feet with a standing ovation. “I was just looking out into the crowd and thinking ‘wow’ all the way through it,” Gary said. “I don’t think I’ll ever get an opportunity to do that again.”
Quote:
One of the funniest moments of the night was when I went through the crowd to meet Oprah. “Who is this guy Gary then?” she asked with her gal pal Gayle King.
“He’s the frontman of Take That – which I guess are like the British version of the Backstreet Boys,” I said.
“Well, he was fantastic,” she replied. “I’ll have to see what he’s done in the past.”
I just love the fact Oprah is probably sat at home right now googling Gary Barlow and looking at the career of Take That. We can only hope that’s true.
