Louis Theroux joins British GQ in Actually Me, as he goes online to answer the internet’s questions. The British-American documentarian responds to questions from Twitter & Reddit, as well as replying to KZfaq, TikTok & Instagram comments.
Louis Theroux reveals how he came up with the now-legendary ‘Jiggle Jiggle’ rap, which took the internet by storm after an appearance on Amelia Dimoldenberg’s ‘Chicken Shop Date’ KZfaq series. ‘The money is jiggling-jiggling, hence wiggling-wiggling has quite a straightforward auditory association,’ says Louis Theroux. ‘I tell you what it isn’t… It’s not an exotic lounge scenario, where I’m flinging my money at the dancer.’ Watch the full episode as Louis Theroux goes undercover with British GQ in Actually Me.
The brand new Spotify Exclusive Podcast, ‘The Louis Theroux Podcast’ is available to stream now on Spotify, with new episodes landing every Tuesday.

You know, I'm honestly surprised that Louis Theroux took a moment out of his busy schedule of being a Lovecraftian hivemind to do this. What a guy, am I right?

@leeballington3136 9 ай бұрын

I agree with that somewhat, but if you've seen his interviews, I'm sure you have, his demeanor is always calm, friendly and approachable. That seems to be his personality, rather than trying to trick his interviewee into opening up. He's has a benevolent personality, which lowers peoples guard.

@sameerdodger 9 ай бұрын

@@timmasters1195 this statement is incredibly dismissive of the work theroux has done to turn taboo subjects into popular discussion. personally i don't think there's been a better gonzo journalist for a long time. also comparing him to a comedian and a children's programme just because they're popular is a bit of a dumb take to say the least.

I saw Louis on the tube in London recently and was awkwardly gawping at him for a moment as I confirmed it was him and then considered going up and saying something. Let’s hope him looking back at me a few times wasn’t him thinking that scientology was back on him. I’m sure his departure at the next stop was unrelated.

Absolute living legend, was able to access people that would not otherwise open up and all through his beguiling innocent like charm that belies a sharp investigative mind. I like that he name checked Stacey Dooley too, she's cut from the same cloth

Louis is very clever and has studied political philosophy and understands how circumstances affect individuals so he listens, really listens. He probably helps people improve.

Funny how he was suprised that the BBC wanted to use his name, but seems to have forgotten that his father is a famous writer ... who got famous by writing many bestselling books about going to strange and interesting places and interviewing strange and interesting people ...

@Fanney47 9 ай бұрын

Oh, really? Huh. I guess he maybe got his interest in this from him. 😁

@hughanthony9500 8 ай бұрын

I doubt he forgot about his own father. Perhaps he just wanted to make his own name for himself and not use his father's name to get into TV.

But people don’t necessarily link them. They don’t necessarily assume all the famous Theroux’s are related (even though they kinda all are what with Justin Theroux being his cousin and Marcel Theroux being his brother…)
