Okay... well... I didn't exactly say it was me bare ass naked. I said it was Sofa George. That's the real Sofa George.
He got famous for about 15 seconds years ago and actually ended up with a fan club in Japan after accidentally eating an experimental aphrodisiac and trying to do the naked squirrel dance with the sofa. True story.
I told the story of George eating the aphrodisiac on an episode of LEEZA... and the segment ended up in the weekend edition of TALK SOUP. TALK SOUP played it over and over... probably 5 airings. The story got picked up by the international media and over night George was a pervert border collie celebrity. My favorite phone call was from Francesca Leoni with Radio Italy:
(phone rings)
Me - Hello.
Francesca - Hello. This is Francesca Leoni with Radio Italy.
Me - Uh huh.
Francesca - I'd like to arrange to interview George.
Me - He's a dog.
Francesca - Yes. Does he speak Italian?
Me - (long pause as I try to figure this one out) No.
