Martin Short Once Got High With George Harrison at a Party

Friday, October 1, 2021

George Harrison might have had a reputation as the “quiet Beatle,” but he was always the life of the party. People would gravitate to him, and it wasn’t just because he was a Beatle, although that played a big part. There was a reason why George had so many friends. As Paul McCartney would say, he was just a lovely guy. So, of course, when comedian Martin Short was given the opportunity to meet George, he wasn’t going to pass it up. The result turned out to be more than Short could have ever hoped. In a 2019 appearance on Conan, Conan O’Brien asked Short which celebrity he was most excited to meet. He explained that it’s no one in his peer group because “you’re competitive with them and want their failure.” It’s the stars that were big when you’re growing up that are the most precious to meet when you’re older.
