The hypnotist also thinks he can use his powers to make a gay man fancy women.
Derren, 41, who came out as gay four years ago, said: “I was thinking about this the other day — it would be interesting wouldn’t it? To take a gay guy and make him straight and a straight guy and make him gay.”
The magician’s shows in which he uses mind control to get the public to do outrageous things have attracted controversy.
Last year’s Apocalypse saw him convince teaching assistant Steven Brosnan that the world had been devastated by meteors and taken over by zombies.
He has also hypnotised people to rob a security van and try to “kill” Stephen Fry.
But he has denied claims he plans shows for shock value.
He said: “Controversy has never interested me for its own sake. It’s always been about doing stuff that feels dramatic.”
In an interview with the Gay Times, Derren also admitted he had no plans to get married to his long-term partner despite the proposed changes to marriage laws to allow same-sex couples to wed.
