Lionel Richie revealed that sex sessions with him now feel more like a sprint than a marathon when he stopped by The View on Tuesday.
The 73-year-old singer-songwriter joined fellow American Idol judges Katy Perry and Luke Bryan, who are now sober, as they previewed the season for the long-running daytime talk show hosts.
After the topic turned to Richie and his 1983 hit All Night Long, he joked that sex with him no longer lasts ‘all night’, though he wasn’t concerned with making love more modestly.
Co-host Sarah Haines had a “more intimate question” and lowered her voice to slyly ask, “What’s the backstory to that song?”
‘When I wrote All Night Long, it was really all night,’ Richie replied.

Wham bam: ‘Now my ‘all night’ is down to a ferocious 15 minutes,’ he quipped, drawing uproarious laughter from the audience and hosts.

“But don’t worry, we’ll talk about it later,” he added.
Katy was still impressed by the 73-year-old’s stamina.
‘Fifteen minutes? That’s long, buddy,’ she said, and he replied, ‘And don’t forget, okay?’
The pop singer added: “As long as it’s not four times a night, seven days a week.”
Luke didn’t have much to add to the exchange, other than his embarrassed expression.
Time will tell if Lionel’s current girlfriend, Lisa Parigi, will care about his explicit confession about his activities in bed.
Lisa, who is 40 years younger than the hitmaker, met him at a dinner party just under a decade ago when they were introduced by mutual friends, and it didn’t take long for the lovebirds to start a relationship.
Richie was previously married to Brenda Harvey from 1975 to 1993, and the two adopted their eldest daughter, Nicole Richie.
