One of the best 10 things! He really told the story behind every item, the items were cool and Simon is a class act

[@AnindyaChakraborty-rr8ep]

yes

[@elhopper3735]

He’s such a fun presence in the MI movies, I’m so glad he’s there. Benji is one of my favorite characters. Him and Tom have such a great chemistry!

[@adabell1833]

I love Simon Pegg. He’s so down to earth and funny and also brilliant at what he does. ❤️

[@Stephen_Lafferty]

It's great to hear Simon's speaking voice - a great timbre!

[@taleytaleytaley]

I randomly met Simon at a Paul McCartney concert in London in 2015. He was so lovely and kind and even took a photo with me. I've become a bigger fan since then and would love to run into again one day to really appreciate how cool getting to meet him is. I support everything he's in because of his kindness to me that day in May.

[@TheChirpyExperience]

I love this guy, even when he's not performing. National treasure for sure.

[@LeilauniLutu]

We need more Simon Pegg interviews please absolutely enjoyed this

[@TheGreenLanternB]

Can we get Simon Pegg on Hot Ones please

[@IsisRoseStudio]

He is an international treasure. Give Simon Pegg all his flowers!!!!!

[@whoknows6002]

dude, simon is such a genuine guy. how can you not love him?

[@kurtiscleary9759]

Rarely do I feel happy for a celebs success ( not out of malice just because there craft is there craft) but SP most definetly has that like ability you just can't help but be proud of his achievements for him if that makes sense?

[@kurtiscleary9759]

He is like the cool/ funny uncle who shows you cool comics and tells you stupid jokes you're probably to young to get but tell your friends at school

[@abramsullivan7764]

Simon Pegg is a hilarious guy in Shawn Of The Dead, Hut Fuzz, and World's End cool guy as well.

[@nerd26373]

I bet Simon Pegg pegged this to be his most memorable presences. He can pull off anything without any faltering setbacks. He's essentially one of the industry's jack of all trades.

[@ojkoala5498]

Cringe

[@j-rocd9507]

Thank you Simon for the all the entertainment and pure joy.

[@siewlingtho5144]

Hot Fuzz and Shawn of Dead was brutal brilliant.

[@mrnorthpresents]

Need a new Cornetto film. Those were classic

[@floppyfairy99]

Want to be very British about this and have a go about him getting all Hollywood but he's such a down to Earth bloke.

[@emercycrite]

Such a top bloke.

[@haanimely981]

Genuinely enjoy him as human being

[@batteredwarrior]

Such a great guy! I watched Simon give a talk live back in 2010 and he is genuinely as affable and funny as he comes across on screen!

[@lanettdone1360]

Luv luv Simon pegg!!!!!!!❤

[@MagikarpReacts]

And I can’t live without him

[@LiveEvilProductions0]

X2

[@timk4829]

Love him. Funny & chilled.

[@sabahpirani1346]

this was genuinely a fun watch!!!

[@globalcelebritys3295]

I love his hair colour. It's so beautiful for him

[@debbralehrman5957]

I just watched his movie The World's End last night. Awesome video GQ.👍🏼

[@gracejin9076]

one of the most interesting people out there i love you simon

[@Greg-rn4xi]

He looks like a magician on casual Friday

[@shannonardo]

Love this guy! Just watched “PAUL” last night for the first time! Highly recommend!!!!!!

[@ricardoms2072]

No books, no camera ,dude's actually being serious lol

[@abelsmile]

oh wow some of the things are unbelievably relatable

[@philippslappnig]

It's cringe how much GQ is putting Ads into their "10 things ... can't live without". I saw a few one and you can literally tell when its an ad and when its really their own stuff.

[@JT-qw1cn]

Wow. Thanks for the heads-up. Anything to make a dollar! 😡

[@alida6704]

I love him

[@mary-adler-english]

I love you, Simon!

[@asunbeam5479]

the la colombe shout out is so cute!

[@TheFilmsKaper]

realest dude

[@curtiss5982]

I love how he says 'aroused' with a straight face😂

[@noirczar5280]

Been a fan of Simon Pegg since Shaun of the Dead!

[@johnb1150]

You never can tell whose gona become mega famous, i still remember simon as one of the bunch of actors on big train way back in 1998, if youd told me hed eventually be starring in tom cruise movies i wouldnt have believed you and i bet neither would he have either.

[@johnb1150]

@Txt_OnTelgrm--GQVideo winner of what?

[@Amle00]

I wonder how his interaction with Kim Seokjin was. He literally posted a pic with Seokjin standee once.

[@2808879]

more collaborations between edgar and simon please! thank you

[@jellevz]

Does anybody know what sunglass organiser he is using/showing? It looks really nice.

[@Hacktheplanet_]

Loved the film

[@FaptnUndrpants]

There is something very strange about this fashion-conscious, movie-star version of Simon Pegg.

[@MsVorpalBlade]

He's nothing like the Simon Pegg I knew 30 years ago, that's for sure

[@Lucylava]

I can't help feeling he's turned into the kind of celebrity he would have ridiculed back in the early, alternative days

[@THDSCornwall]

Simon Pegg slowly morphing into Brian Cox

[@Pablorcct]

He is an Icon, even i love Tom Cruise and he is the lead on the M.I franchise, without Simon it wouldn't be the same, Benji is one of the greatest characters ever made

[@EthanRom]

I have to give Tom Cruise massive props that even tho the movies revolve around him, he gives his cast mates cool things to do and moments to shine. Benji getting a massive upgrade since MI3 has done wonders to the franchise

[@RenaissanceManChild]

Been a fan of Simon Pegg since year dot here in the UK. But hearing him say...."My Stylist"....is like finger nails down a black board. Still love him tho.

[@ricknash730]

Simon Pegg is dope!

[@diaperstains]

legend

[@mike91mdk45]

Cholula ftw! One of my favorites

[@artheaux666]

That AG1 sponsorship 😂 also the hot sauce too?? What’s going on

[@garyneuwirth2561]

Love that he gives a shout out to Kim’s Videos on St. Mark’s Place. Simon just made this NYer so proud…😁.

[@TheFloiboi]

I couldn't figure out what to do with my facial hair until I'd seen this magnificent gentleman. Thanks dude

[@whoopsydoodle5933]

He’s become way too Hollywood.

[@rmatic2295]

Chanel Antaeus! Classic!

[@sampelham7443]

I like the sound of the powders. An easy convenient way to get a balanced meal in, just because I need to get additional calories in.

[@LC-le9ew]

I really couldn’t relate until he said Steve Aoki Mic Drop Remix! 😅💜

[@fletcherhamilton3177]

Oh he’s actually like me - I used to be a terror for tea but around thirty-five it began staining my teeth like nobody’s business. Had ‘em whitened, switched over to coffee and had zero problems ever since. He also coordinates frames and / or lenses with fabrics like I might do on a particularly pedantic day 🤣

[@superboy305]

Love this guy😊, made top 5 zombie movie.

[@TroyMcClure26]

He’s basically saying SEAN… LET ME ON YA SHOW

[@magicknight13]

Yay!!!

[@aarifdin2587]

please make a sequel to Paul. I know he doesn't like making sequels to his movies but I think Paul needs one.

[@bhagwandevsidarstudio]

Nice 👍👍

[@TheEternalPotNoodle]

Paul Breach is really blowing up these days

[@chaostronaut302]

"Oh well if your friends asked you to jump off a cliff would you?! I guess the answer finally is yes." I DO WHAT I WANT MOM!!

[@tanniaz33]

🙏🏽

[@fernandolozano7376]

So classy for using Antaeus

[@dominichernandez5089]

Anyone know the name of the blue shades he whips out?

[@TheRhythmOfLife1972]

Huge surprise as I didn't know this s guy.

[@themockingjay9952]

Am I hallucinating or is he really getting hotter🥵😍

[@jayarahul3658]

Yo when did Benji become Benjamin I mean that voice is phenomenal 😳

[@user-co3gt3hr9f]

Simon pegg played the main character in Hot fuzz, perhaps it wouldn’t hurt if he got invited into “Hot ones” with Sean evans as the host as per usual. Of course he would be very much welcome

[@BazTheStoryteller]

Since Simon loves hot sauce, he should be on Hot Ones. 🍗🔥

[@habl00pep]

I found a lovely pair of aviators in Rome

[@jimi1is3king]

AG1 is the new raid shadow legends. They can advertise it as much as they want but no ones going to buy it

[@FoodforThought12345678dsds]

I bought it, LIAR

[@dwaynemenzies8824]

You've got red on you!

[@chocolanny]

Cornetto 🍦

[@williamharris2855]

Is it me or does Simon Pegg look like a young Brian Cox with those sunglasses 🕶

[@forthepeople1664]

I feel like the dog tag could be a premise for a future Simon Pegg | Nick Frost film where he's dying and the dog tag has no revealing life saving health data.

[@PricklyCactus1989]

A Potato in a cardigan. Simon Pegg, 2023

[@danieluzumaki14]

Simon popping out my favorite hot sauce as the first thing. Mans invited to the mexican cook out

[@gbc7344]

#11..hair plugs!

[@orlandoorosco7915]

Yessss Simon Pegg on hot ones would be 🔥

[@warlockofwordschannel7901]

Is Simon Pegg's wife quoting Spaced there?!

[@JoFreddieRevDr]

Flux Of Pink Indians - Neu Smell EP

[@callumbyng4637]

[@Gogettor]

[@wallstherb]

I love Cholula hot sauce!! 🙂😊

[@CarlosDiazCL]

Nick Frost is not an essential?

[@christopheclaus8505]

[@Warlock83]

Glad he survived the zombie apocalypse

[@robdobson5056]

[@kenzieobrien]

[@Reppintimefitness]
