Michael Fielding (born 23 January 1982) is a British comedian and actor, known for his role as Naboo in the British surreal comedy The Mighty Boosh.

He was born in Westminster, London, England and raised in Mitcham, Southwest London. His paternal half-brother is Noel Fielding.
Michael Fielding appeared on his elder brother Noel Fielding and Julian Barratt's show, The Mighty Boosh. Michael Fielding is also known for his roles in Noel Fielding's Luxury Comedy. He played the main character Smooth, Noel's purple anteater-like butler. He also played the minor character Doo Rag.[1]
Noel said in an interview with Jonathan Ross that the abstract name of the show came about from one of Michael's Portuguese friends who described his hair as being like a "mighty bush", owing to Michael's curly hairstyle as a child.[2] Michael has since confirmed his brother's story about The Mighty Boosh name, but revealed that his friend was actually Spanish.
