Adam Ant, This Morning, interview, February 2014

[@rwartist1737]

I’ve seen him live 3 times more recently! I was absolutely smitten with him when I was a very young teen and still love him now I’m An old lady ♥️♥️♥️♥️

[@sallybutton6237]

Yes, me too! I would swoon at posters of him with the white stripe across his nose lol, I think my dear late mum also had a thing for him too. What a lovely era it was to be a teen in. Older lady now too but still have a secret crush for Adam ❤️‍🔥🤭

[@erikadebiasse7487]

Lovely cheekbones, lovely person. I love real people who became famous and are still real. God bless him!

[@livelonglovemuch]

What a nice guy. One of my early child hood memories was watching him on tv. Love your work. Love mobile moment. Always speaks out so well about mental health.

[@neilburns8869]

He is indeed a very nice man. This was something that struck me about him, one of the first times I saw him interviewed.👏👍🤝😊😍

[@gailadams8553]

I really admire Adam and his openness with his struggle with illness. A true artist 💗

[@donna1482]

He will always be my price charming, been a fan since late 70s I went to see him on his book signing and all I could do was cry I couldn't even speak and he was so wonderful his staff ran around to find me a tissue ❤❤❤

[@hellfirepictures]

I'm not sure I'd be proud of that. A bit odd crying about a guy you don't know. This is what's wrong with the world of celebrity - fans!

Adam never ages!!!! looks same as he did back in the day!

[@krystsource8473]

Adam Ant gave me fun in my childhood when sometimes fun was scarce, lots of affection for him, it was always in his eyes, good soul.

[@lucasskywalker]

Adam rules, because Adam is a brilliant person.

[@neilburns8869]

Yes, indeed. You are absolutely correct and I believe that we ought to take the exact same approach as people were encouraged to do with Freddie Mercury and AIDS. I.e. see the person, enjoy his music and appreciate his personality. Don't see him or label him as an illness or MH issue. Not that I am trying to suggest for 1 second that you are. You are obviously one of the good guys.👍🤝😊

[@clod8]

They don’t give Adam Ant enough credit for the Jack Sparrow character.

[@izabelledominguez1013]

Yes …

[@erinkwalsh]

I LOVED ADAM ANT Strip Tour, my first Adam Ant Concert! I was young, I wish I was old enough to have seen him with his Ants,

[@MontagZoso]

Same here! Saw him in 1984 in Seattle, after The Ants. Greatest show! Would have loved to see him with the Ants too. ❤️

[@fromoneendofthailand]

This guy is a legend. One of the most inspiration people. Genuine guy.

He is a nice guy! He owned a cafe back in the 80's in Hertford and my wife's parents owned a shop, that's how my wife met him lots and said he was nice man!

This is very interesting as he moved to Hollywood in the mid 80s. Before that he was massively busy. I will, however, check this piece of information with his old drummer, Chris ‘Merrick’ Hughes, who I am friends with.

[@Mortthemoose]

Good interview... was a huge Adam Ant fan when i was a kid.

My all time childhood hero!

He's such a good bloke and funny. Loved his records back in the day. We were glued to the telly to see him on TOTP

[@cconstantinou]

The first time I saw Adam Ant on a morning children's show 70's, I thought he was so gorgeous, and so much talent with those fantastic records.

[@rocker76m88]

He aged like fine wine. Still makes my heart flutter now like in the 80s 😏

[@sandraR12460]

This man is 67? My God he looks amazing. I saw him in the 80s and he was outstanding. Time has been VERY good to him.

[@jimijojimie6321]

Went to woolies that Saturday and bought it, my first single and didn’t even have a record player 😆

[@richardrickford3028]

What a fantastic guy Adam Ant is. I still get a huge buzz from his wonderful music. He is quite right that you need to see your GP if mental illness is making your life unmanageable. And better sooner than later - it is much better to deal with mental illness before it escalates. I am not a doctor myself but both my sisters are excellent general practitioners (and I am not just saying that because I am their older brother) GP training about mental health has increased enormously and they are extremely clued up about it. They will also be the gateway to other mental health services and will also tell you if you need to see a doctor who is a specialist in mental health medicine (i.e. a psychiatrist) Psychiatrists can get a lot of bad press - much of which is based on ignorance - a good psychiatrist and a co-operative patient can together achieve a great deal and medicine is essential for many types of mental ill health. Any general book on depression that you get at a bookshop which does not stress the importance of seeing your GP is being criminally negligent. I have been severely mentally ill myself and what saved me was the combination of good psychiatry and good therapy. Both were essential. If you are reading this and you feel you may have a mental health issue my heart goes out to you. It is a truly horrible situation. But there is a very strong chance your doctor can help. Avoid people who say "well everyone gets depressed" or "other people have problems too" like the plague. You do not deserve that kind of tactless abuse. You deserve help and support. You are hugely worth it.

[@susankirkland3852]

What a great guy.. so glad he’s happy now ❤️

[@marthanewsome6375]

It finally occurred to me that I finally know where Johnny Depp got his pirate look.

[@hellfirepictures]

From actual pirates. Cos, ya know, that's where Adam got it from. Go figure...

[@Poirot111]

I always said that ,it was more adam than Keith Richards definitely

[@NatashaRaisorGlam]

OMG he has that Adam Ant, pretty man vibe😂

[@NatashaRaisorGlam]

@@Poirot111 Adam is a sexy pretty man. Keith is more of a grunge macho.

[@djbillybopdjbillybop2817]

If you think of it Johnny Depp could have got the idea for Jack Sparrow off of Adam. I still have that album Dirk wears white sox.

Top banana,,well in Adam ,great interview ..🐜🐜🐜

[@neilburns8869]

Adam or Stuart Goddard as he was previously known as, is a very decent individual deep down. I have only recently learned that he has bipolar disorder. Even so, he seems to cope with it really quite well. I am glad that he got to meet HRH the Queen and had a nice wee chat with her. She knew his name and had obviously paid attention to his work because she knew what he looked like with his stage makeup on.

Johnny Depp's Brit bro. How hot did he look in the tux with Queenie? But in the 70s I thought he was quite up himself. He's obviously not. Still loved him though. God we had good music back then.

[@adiands850]

I wonder if he's mates with Billy Idol?

[@MrSloika]

Anyone know what that style hat is called?

[@Divertedflight]

It's a short felt Top hat of the type that was is in fashion at the very end of the 18th century and first third/half of the 19th century. It's the more workman's version of the tall silk hat, though it was also worn by the landed gentry in the country as a riding hat. it was later largely replaced by the bowler or Coke ( derby for those in the US.)

[@MrSloika]

Divertedflight IC, thanks.

[@michaelleacy]

Sorry, nothing to do with Adam but who's the actor at 9:00 ? It's driving me mad - I know I've seen him in something

[@bootyclaw]

That's Ben Hull. He played Lewis Richardson in Hollyoaks from 1995 - 2001.
