ANDREW DENTON’S INTERVIEW: Jimmy Barnes with wife Jane
Two people, two chairs, one conversation, no gimmicks
What could possibly be left to say about the human firecracker, Jimmy Barnes, that he hasn’t already said himself? For three years now, Jimmy’s has been in full confession mode, through two bestselling memoirs (Working Class Boy and Working Class Man), a feature length documentary and two sold-out song-and-story tours.
Yet if you ask the man, he’ll tell you he left out as many stories as he put in along the way. And this week on Interview, we’ve got a bunch you won’t have heard. Like the one where he cooked for hundreds of monks. And the one with the rubber nurse’s outfit. And the one about his love of flower arranging – can’t get more rock and roll than that.
Jimmy is also joined by his wife Jane, to discuss the man he was, the man he has become and whether what doesn’t kill you really does make you stronger.
ANDREW DENTON’S INTERVIEW airs Tuesday May 28 at 9.00pm on Channel 7. Catch up on 7plus.
