He suggested that the Wonderbra should be banned as it misleads guys into thinking a woman's breasts are bigger than they are, retelling a story of having been disappointed when a girl he'd 'pulled' proved to have been wearing a Wonderbra. He also asked his interviewee if he was pleased Gianni Versace was killed, because it meant less competition, and suggesting that he'd heard a rumour that Calvin Klein did it. This was a clear satire on the feuding which followed the deaths of the rappers 2Pac and The Notorious B.I.G.
