A throng of A-listers hit the red carpet including actress Lily Collins and Vogue boss and rumoured inspiration for the original novel Anna Wintour.
The outing comes just a week after David claimed he is ‘probably non-binary’ he as he candidly opened up about his Sєxuality and gender idenтιтy in a new interview.
The comedian and author, also admitted that he thinks life ‘might have been easier’ for him if he were gay.
He appeared on the Australian podcast Uncomfortable Conversations with Josh Szeps, where he made the revelations about himself.
David explained that if people used the same language as we do now when he was younger, he would have most-likely identified as non-binary.
He told the host: ‘I think in a way I’d probably say I am non-binary I think. I don’t know exactly.’
The comedian recalled: ‘It’s interesting because I had this girlfriend at the end of university and we used to go out.
‘I used to go out to gay clubs and dance for like six hours and I’d be wearing a skirt and stuff like that.

He added: ‘I think it’s interesting. I mean, I find change interesting. And I mean, you know, I wrote a book called The Boy in the Dress 15 years ago, which was sort of seen as a bit more daring then.
‘And it’s always something – I’ve always sort of felt like celebrating difference on, so I’ve always thought it’s exciting,’
Reflecting on his idenтιтy both now and in his younger years, he said: ‘I sort of think, where would I be positioning myself maybe, if I was now 19 or 20?
‘Because I went to Bristol University and did a drama degree. And I think that course is where you’re probably… if there’s a group of people who are going to be most interested in that sort of area, most drawn to that area, it’s probably going to be drama students.’
Later in the podcast, host Josh Szeps asked: ‘And what about your Sєxuality? You always lean into “Britain’s most famous bi-curious comedian” or something, was that a real reflection of your adolescence, did you fool around with guys?’
David responded: ‘Yeah, I’d say so. Yeah, so I was always at home with that as well. Sometimes I think my life would be a lot easier if I was just gay. Because I’m really drawn to gay things. I really like gay culture.’
Reflecting on the differences between himself and his BBC co-star Matt Lucas, he continued: ‘It’s interesting because Matt Lucas is gay. And he’s like into football and he’s into musicals as well, actually…

David was formerly married to Dutch model Lara Stone, 40, before their marriage ended in divorce in 2015, with the hearing lasting less than 60 seconds
‘But yeah I’d say I’m probably sort of camper than him. It’s hard, I don’t know.’
It comes after David revealed his mother found him ‘lifeless on the bed’ when he tried to take his own life during his university days.
The comedian experienced depression during his youth and made an attempt on his life at Christmas when he returned home from university.
Speaking to The Times, David told how it was his mother Kathleen who found him and credited her with helping him get out of his depression.

He said: ‘The weight of my depression had become unbearable. I’d known something was wrong from an early age — a feeling of unbearable loneliness I could never escape.
‘Despair loomed over me that first Christmas back from university, and I couldn’t live with it any more. Mum discovered me lying lifeless on my bed, having taken an overdose.
‘It broke her heart. She cried for weeks. I am ashamed I was so selfish to put her through this, but her boundless love got me through.’
David has always had a close relationship with his mother and said he always felt he could be ‘completely myself’ around her.
The Britain’s Got Talent judge said Kathleen encouraged his ‘flamboyant side’ and hired a wedding dress for him when he was cast as the queen in All the King’s Men while attending an all-boys senior school.
He added that his mother was always supportive of his comedy career, while his father Peter was more sceptical he could make a career out of it.
David has spoken before about his struggles with depression, including in his 2012 autobiography, Camp David.
He wrote: ‘Many people who suffer from depression confirm early morning is the worst time. At 4am you are totally alone.

‘There is no one to call. It was not just the terrible elemental sadness I felt, but fear. Fear of death, fear of life, fear of love, fear of everything.’
During his appearance on Bear Grylls’ ITV show Bear’s Mission in 2019, David said becoming a father to his son Alfred had changed his life for the better.
He said: ‘I’m certainly in a better place now and one great thing about becoming a parent, your whole life starts revolving around them and you do stop dwelling on your own problems so much, because you don’t have time to.’
