Who said it? 'I’m trying to make every girl in that audience want me'

02:23 PM PT, Sep 11 2008

There's some show on Bloomberg Television called "Night Talk" and tonight the guest is a Grammy-winning star who apparently prowls the stage like a sex panther:

“The thing that I think about when I play is that I’m trying to make every girl in that audience want me, and think she can have me," he said. "That’s my goal every night.”

Who is this man of molten desire? Answer after the jump ...

Rucker

It's Darius Rucker, of course! Rucker is fed up with people calling him "Hootie" all these years, but he just loves when the ladies sing along to "Only Wanna Be With You" -- and, apparently, he believes they actually mean it.

Rucker2 According to a Bloomberg press release, Rucker also tells "Night Talk" tonight that there could be "maybe one, maybe two" more albums from Hootie & the Blowfish, which is somewhat odd considering the fact that just last month, Rucker said he was leaving the group. Darius Rucker, a man of passion, a man of mystery.

"Night Talk" airs in the U.S., Europe and Asia on Bloomberg TV at 10 on weeknights and is simulcast on Bloomberg Radio at 10 p.m.  Bloomberg Radio is available on XM and Sirius. The Friday night show re-airs Saturdays from 8 to 9 p.m. and 10 to 11 p.m. and Mondays from midnight to 1 a.m.
