The 'Hello' hit maker how have sold over one hundred million records world wide revealed he seduced women with the help of his best-selling record, Three Times A Lady.

 More after the cut...

Lionel Richie, the 66-year-old was asked by the show's host if he had ever made love to his own music. 

He replied: 'Absolutely not. You can’t even get into scandal with this. Let me tell you this, now wait, in the early days of Commodores maybe it was in the background.'

 Piers asked: 'Which particular song would you use?'

Lionel laughed: 'It would be ‘Three Times A Lady’. I’m no fool, because that was our first worldwide hit. 

Piers told him: 'You’re lasting legacy for the world is that you have played a formative part probably in every man’s romantic history for the last 50 years. You have basically helped us all get laid.'

Lionel giggled: 'Yes, but I wasn’t going to say it quite like that. But that is correct. The funniest thing Piers is that the ladies walk up to me everywhere in the world and they stop me and tell me how they were married or had a boyfriend, the whole thing, but guys don’t talk. 

'They just call my name and give me the official signal “Lionel!” [Lionel makes fist pump action]. That means thank you for everything.'

The star also talked about his adopted daughter Nicole's former party lifestyle, which saw her checking into rehab after being arrested for drug possession in 2005 - pictured together in 2012

'That’s a fairly cataclysmic thing for any father to have to watch his beautiful, young daughter go through.'

Lionel said: 'I got a phone call and she said “Dad I need help, I don’t want to be the third one [death].” And I said “I am with you” and I cancelled the tour. 

'I said “Me and your mother”, who didn’t get along that well, “Me and your mother are checking into rehab with you.”'

Today Nicole has settled down with musician husband Joel Madden, and they have two children Harlow, seven, and Sparrow, five.
