Tucker Carlson has claimed that he asked Boris Johnson for an interview but was told he would only do it for a fee of $1 million.

FNN has learned that was not quite what happened...

In fact Mr Johnson, holding a hairless cat and with his little finger at the side of his lips, first asked for a fee of £1.50.

Then an aide whispered in his ear and he upped the fee to £1000.

Then an aide whispered in his ear again and he upped it to $1 million!

Yeah baby! Shagadelic!

Naturally Mr Carlson refused such a ridiculous fee as he can read all Johnson's nonsense for a few quid in the Daily Mail 'newspaper'.
