When Peter Andre's management contacted me to ask if we'd like to do an interview on surrounding his new single Perfect Night, it was unlikely I'd say no.
They suggested we interviewed him in the office...I suggested we all had a night on lash...recreating his (or as the case might be, my) perfect night.
See what we did there? Yep, not very creative.
Anyway, he agreed.
So Goss - me and Sonja - took Pete out for the night. Meal, drinks, more drinks, silly conversations, more drinks and a set of story board photos.
We all got dress up ready for our date.
Pete in a crisp black suit with waist coat, me and Sonja in matching red outfits (that was not deliberate but worked out quite well for the photos).
We had dinner at the Pestana hotel on the Chelsea Bridge .
Pete convinced me to try the Tricolore salad - he said it reminded him of home. Not sure why as he's from Greece and it's a Italian dish. Anyway, Tricolore salad, designed from the three stripe Italian Tricolore flag .
Avocado, mozzarella and tomato.
We then had a variety of fillet steak, sea bass and a vintage bottle of red wine.
Luckily for us Pete was paying.
We chatted about everything over dinner.
- his obsession with UFOs, how he's seen then, photographed then and even sent emails to fellow enthusiast Robbie Williams about his alien passion
- he talked a lot about sex...do women fake it, and why? Pete can turn anything normal into a sexual euphemism... even when we first arrived looking at the menu he asked: "Do you want the ham HOCK? Do you like HOCK? Do you need HOCK?"
- why he doesn't have sex with groupies anymore (he's been there got the t-shirt many times)
- why he thinks Cheryl Cole did the right thing getting back with Ashley
- how he and Katie Price no longer talk
- his perfect date would be camping on a beach in Australia, playing Extreme - More Than Words on the guitar around a campfire, getting drunk on red wine and waking up naked.
- he wishes he could move back to Oz, but would never ever leave his children here
- how his dad thinks marriage is really hard and something you have to continually work at
- he naturally has really curly hair but employs his brother to straight it daily
- he doesn't like to go clubbing anymore but is going out to Ibiza and to see his brother DJ in Sugar Hut in Essex
After dinner we convinced Mr A to do a Tequila slammer. And then in a drunken moment he forked out for a bottle of Laurent Perrier Rose champagne for us. Pretty expensive in London bars.
Not sure about Pete but this turned out to be a rather Perfect Night for Goss.
