When Egos Attack

5AMENDMENT: Jack neatly pointed out in the comments section below that I'd made a glaring mistake. Good old Johnny Vaughn is the number one COMMERCIAL presenter in London. Chris Moyles, paid as he is out of the BBC's never ending advert-free back pocket, is 'non' commercial. And so manages to reign over London's listeners by a comfortable margin.

Overpaid chubmeister Chris Moyles recently lost out to Capital Radio's Johnny Vaughn as most listened to breakfast presenter in London - so you can understand him being a little bitter. (This is actually incorrect. Please see amendement above.)

That must only have been compounded when he also lost out on an interview with midget du jour David Gest, who turned up 15 minutes late for his spot on Radio 1's breakfast show.

Understanding as always, Moyles ranted: "Don't stand me up you freaky little man! Get your ass in my building. I don't care how many of the bloody Jacksons you know. That dude better come in crawling on his hands and knees."

When Gest did manage to wrangle his way through the West End's traffic, Chris Moyles had him banned from the studio.

BBC's most celebrated pie eater declared: "I'm shaking I'm so angry. If I was tough I'd kill someone today!"

Being on radio, of course, denied us all the pleasure of watching Moyle's jowls wobbling in fury.

David Gest, who's major claim to fame is being Liza Minnelli's ex husband, kept his mouth shut and remained dignified despite the porky presenter's verbal tirade.

You can hear what Chris Moyles had to say here...

It is, of course, great radio.
