EXCLUSIVE! John Lydon meets Gary Barlow for first time ever



A couple of weeks ago I interviewed John Lydon (former Sex Pistol Johnny Rotten) at a music studio in East Putney.
He strolled out with a can of Stella in his hand and happily sat down for nearly an hour to chat.
His manager Rambo brought more cans out and vital packs of Marlborough reds.
Lydon was one of the most charming musicians I have met so far.
He was happy to talk about anything, often straying way off point with some lyrical, tongue-twisting observations, often about his beloved Arsenal Football Club.
And then Gary Barlow walked up.
They had a quick chat, agreed to pose for a photo together and then Mr Take That was off.
Lydon told me afterwards he'd never met Barlow before, adding: “He’s a fine lad, nothing wrong with him. I saw him on the Jonathan Ross show. I get on well with Jonathan Ross, I think he’s all right, and if he likes him he must be kosher.”

So above is my exclusive pic of the first and so far only time John Lydon and Gary Barlow have ever met.
