Michael then admitted: ‘I didn’t realise that…’
Of other countries he loves to perform in, Michael added: ‘I love Germany. I love the Germans. They’re hilarious. They’re funny people, they’re dry.’
As talk turned to fans having his face tattooed on them, Michael said: ‘It’s a good feeling, it’s kinda cool when someone wants to put you on their skin forever.’
Asked who in the world of music he’d have tattooed on him he then said: ‘Lewis Capaldi!’
Michael also discussed his ambitions to act saying: ‘Yeah, for sure. I think it’s about time. I’m serious. It’s an extension of what we do.
‘As artists, every night we go on stage, there’s a character that we play, a superhero that we become. There’s a great sense of fulfilment in expressing yourself in that way.
‘I have been offered roles to go and do things… it was always the same part. ‘You’re a singer…’ It was like the romantic comedy.
‘That would be fun, but I wanted to take a stab at something… I love my life, I love what I do and I love who I do it for. I don’t know what to do. I don’t know what to do next, but something cool. Maybe a TV chat show.’

Michael was joined on the show by Ed Sheeran, Russell Crowe, Lily Allen and Desiree Burch.
It comes after earlier this week Michael said he is cutting back on tours to spend time with his wife and children after getting into ‘the best shape of his life’ to keep up with their brood.
The star, who recently announced his UK dates, admitted that he ‘is unhappy’ without his wife Luisana Lopilato, 35, and their four children.
Speaking in a new interview with Gala Magazine on Monday, Michael sweetly added that when he is home ‘every day is a daddy day.’
The couple welcomed a daughter named Cielo Yoli Rose in August last year, and also share another daughter Vida, three, and sons Elias, six, and Noah, nine.
He told the publication: ‘Of course I miss them a lot, but everyone has to work. Other fathers drive to work in the morning and maybe read a bedtime story in the evening – that’s it. When I’m home, every day is a daddy day.’
‘I realised that I’m unhappy without my family. So I started cutting the tours into chunks – three weeks on tour, two weeks off. It drives my manager crazy.’
Michael added that sometimes his family do join him on tours, with his eldest children being taught by a private tutor as they try to live ‘as normally as possible.’
On his lifestyle he explained: ‘I am physically in the best shape of my life. I discovered the gym for myself and eat better. Everything to be there for my great children for as long as possible.’
It came after Michael revealed his son’s ‘unthinkable’ battle with hepatoblastoma, a rare type of liver cancer, forced him lose his ‘alter-ego’.
The singer admitted he felt like the ‘the superhero I always wanted to be’ before being ‘changed’ by nine-year-old Noah’s diagnosis at the age of three in 2016.
And having been married to his actress wife Luisana since 2011, he claimed ‘understanding each other’s fulfilment’ keeps their relationship strong.
Noah had to undergo chemotherapy and radiotherapy following his diagnosis, and is now in remission.
Michael told Red magazine of the ordeal: ‘That, of course, changed me in a big way – it changed what mattered to me, it changed how I saw life.

‘For most of my life as an entertainer and, especially on stage, I’d become my alter ego. I’d become the superhero I always wanted to be.
‘Then my wife and I went through this unthinkable thing, and I lost that alter ego.’
On maintaining a successful relationship, he added: ‘More than anything, my wife and I understand that each other’s fulfilment is important… I’m not saying we’re perfect – nobody is – but we both have that understanding.’
