BOB Geldof said he wouldn't take The Late Late Show job - even if he was paid €1million.

The Boomtown Rats singer arrived in Dublin on Sunday evening to attend the starstudded IFTA awards.

Speaking on the red carpet, Geldof, 71, told reporters presenting is "properly hard" and he wouldn't do the job for any amount of money.

He added: "I don't know enough about the up and coming broadcasters. But he's [Ryan Tubridy] done an amazing job.

"Every time they pick someone that can do their own thing but at the same time are very good interlocutors that they can still somehow transmit an every day, every man type of thing.
