Calum Best: "An orgy? ... I ain’t ashamed. I had a great time doing it."

In the new issue of Hot Press (out today), Olaf Tyaransen meets reality TV star and all round 'It boy' Calum Best, who speaks frankly about his relationship with his late dad George, his drug use and his ahem, 'colourful' sex life.

Calum talks about the dark side of his father, Man Utd footballer George Best: "I stayed in one night with George's wife Alex, and we were playing cards on the floor... And he came home in an absolute state... He picked me up by the neck, fucking gave me a proper choke and a proper scare, you know."

On his sex life, Calum remembers the night he lost his virginity: "Jesus Christ, I was 15. And she was 35. Fuckin’ hell, mate! It was definitely a mad one, definitely corrupted me at a young age, I’d say. I’m sure my dad would have slapped me a high five you know, and said, 'Fair play!'”

And on the infamous hooker and cocaine scandal, Calum says, "When I got caught with those hookers and cocaine, it was probably the all-time low. A lot of lads are like, 'Oh good on you, well done, son'. And you can talk to your mates and they’ll go, 'Nice one, nice one'. The reality is, it ain’t fucking helping your fucking career."
