The ultimate questions on life, sex and Gary Glitter. This week, Placebo mainman Brian Molko gets somewhat sordid with Paul Branniganโฆ

๐ขโThat would have been when I got thrown out of the girlsโ toilets in a venue in Buffalo, New York. No, I canโt tell you what I was doing to get thrown outโฆโ

๐ขโIt was a fellow musician when we were taking part in a debate about โYob Rockโ for another magazine. He was really attacking a guy from another band, being unnecessarily insulting, so I wanted to teach him some manners.โ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐?
๐ขโFor the christening of our drummer Steveโs baby. My Mum used to drag me to church every Sunday when I was younger, but I have no desire whatsoever to attend now.โ

๐ขโWhen I almost got busted in Trafalgar Square whilst carrying class A drugs. I was psyching myself up for a search and a night in the cells, because I was completely wired when the two cops searched me.โ

๐ขโGary Glitter. I recon he wouldnโt shut up and heโd be really irritating. Elevator lights are too bright like the lights in McDonaldโs, and I think his suit would be too much for me to bear.โ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐?
๐ขโGirls Against Boys. Weโve played with them last year and theyโre amazing. I love then for their energy, their sexiness, their low-down crotch bass, their hip-orientated grooves, everything.โ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ?
๐ขโI went to my first ever, and possibly last ever, football match in Dundee on Boxing Day. I went with our manager Dave, whoโs a Dundee United fan, because I was staying in Dundee with my Mum anyway. I froze my bollocks off, but it was an okay match.โ

๐ขโThe new โRomeo And Julietโ movie โ itโs excellent. Itโs set in modern times and itโs totally amazing with a cool, totally modern soundtrack. Iโm really into films. On tour we play this game called Cinemaphobia, where you have to link different actors through the films theyโve been in with other people. Usually, any two actors can be linked via their co-stars within three filmsโฆโ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐?
๐ขโThe last time I flew back from the States I stuck my change in the Unicef bag. I hardly ever think of giving money to charity. Thatโs shameful, isnโt it?โ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐ ๐๐๐๐?
๐ขIn a pub in Brixton. I got asked, โWhat do you want, love?โ, so I said, โA pint of Stellaโ in my gruffest possible voice. I get mistaken for a girl all the time. I was at a party once and this guy spent half an hour chatting me up before he realised I wasnโr a girl. He only copped on because I finally said, โMy nameโs Brianโ โ and he laughed and said, โHow can your name be Brian if youโre a girl?โ. I think he was a little disappointed.โ
๐ณ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐ ๐๐๐ ๐๐๐๐๐ ?
๐ขโOn my birthday I bawled my eyes out. Itโs my party so I can cry if I want to! I freak out when I get very drunk. We call it โgoing to Super Franceโ. You drink too much whisky, shout a lot and get energetic for a couple of hours, then at some point in the evening you have a complete freak-out, and burst into tears and end up lying in the road.โ
