What a naturally, genuinely beautiful person.
She's such an interesting person. I could listen to her for hours.
Me too!
...no #
I'm a 39 year old, straight, white dude that has been obsessed with bassline orientated electronic music since childhood (DnB, garage, electronica). I heard Tilted on some dance show my kids were watching in 2017. I've been totally enthralled by her music ever since. She's an absolute phenom. Both albums have stunned me, whether in english or french. She's brought some class and originality back to Pop music. So glad I came across this interview. Long live the Queens.
Well said fellow strait dude bass player thinks tilted rocks
Tilted has been stuck in my head for a solid week now. I absolutely love it & her voice.
There are a lot of sexualities other than straight that'll probably explain your situation lol.
@@EsthledoKid97 You sound a little simple.
@@uuuuuuuuiiiiiii And you sound a little jealous.... Keep coming at me.
Im really happy to hear Christine's voice for 28:14 minutes
Magui Cintia -
Magui Cintia i could listen to her all day she could literally sing or say anything
I’m so attracted to her omg
yaaaasss queen
She is VERY alluring
I’m just finding her, and she is one of few artists that moves me to such excitement I become obsessed immediately and then binge her music and interviews 😂 but for real, I am amazed by her presence and artistic talent, the beauty and wonderful strangeness is overwhelming ❤
This woman is absolutely intelligent and GENUINE. Discovering Christine and the Queens is definitely one of the best things that's happened to me this year. 🌈🦄🥰
Me too and I thank God for this creating what an authentic human artist!
She's vert patient with this guy.
I know. most people who really know chris's vibe, know that the interviewer was inexperienced. it's a good thing she's natural wise and eloquent.
That was so hard to watch.
Chris is a 💎
If you haven't seen this lady in concert put that right as soon as you can. If you can't, weep but hope you can one day.
She is fascinating. So glad I discovered her. We all have a Christine in us waiting to be revealed.
Absolutely!
its so very moving to come across someone who you feel is a version of yourself that you no longer can hope to express in this incarnation, but god i am her and she is me i can totally feel her expression/s and her talent. its equally thrilling and terrifying to "find" her work at this (later) point in my life...
i totally agree that every aspect of "identity" is a construct as well as an acceptance of some aspect of culture, not even a desired aspect just one that makes it easier to navigate the day....
but we all know its a construct.
Héloïse ( her real name) is such a kind, intelligent, patient, empathetic person. Keep on making the world better , Redcar!
Chris always has something special and important to share with her fans. I love you Chris, you are the magic marker of my life ❤️
I think she is a wonderful singer/dancer who comes across as a beautiful soul. Her Concert was absolutely brilliant and she sounds as fabulous live as she does on her albums 🎵💛
Such a great interviewer and a great interviewee...Intelligence masterclass . Love you Chris, Christine, Heloise...in any shape and color
Lulu Carnelli yes!!
Loved the way she asked him how her dancing has changed Haha!! I love her 🌹
She's an authentic artist.
She’s so “free-sounding” it almost makes me cry! What an inspirational person! If you’ve ever been forced to hide, listen to Christine and the Queens Xxx
🏳️🌈💕💪😎🦸♂️💪🏳️🌈💪💓😎💕
Really enjoyed the interview. I love how her music is soulful and that she can touch you with the rhythm, voice, expression, and dance. Her songs are like an onion to me. The more I listen, the more layers open up.
I've said it before and I say it again She's A Genius
Her mind 😭♥️
My goodness, What an attractive woman. When she speaks her lips move a different way than one expected, and her eyes flutter. Simply beautiful.
Brilliant interview. Sometimes I feel very aware of the mundanity of a normal life, but I relate so much to the creation of a new persona who ends up bleeding into and leading my so called 'normal' life. And the change of confidence with age, which is such a big part of being human. Loved hearing about the sounds and influences too and identifying them whilst listening to the album.
What an inspirational woman, this is a stunning interview entirely due to Chris being such an enigma and speaking from the heart. A shame its despite the interviewer being completely uninterested, unresponsive and uninformed, but her integrity and honesty is so pure that it doesn't even matter. The girl is a Phoenix. X
I would have to disagree, I thought the interviewer was brilliant as well as Chris.
I would like a million more people to see this. What a fantastic interview, more like a great conversation between two people with mutual admiration for each other.
Up 6000 views since I last saw this. Excellent.
Chris is so incredibly gifted and intelligent
why doesn't the interviewer ask about her music literally at all
She once said she feels its exhausting having to define and explain herself all the time and not get asked about her music
guarded? hmmmm I've seen nothing but the opposite. hmmm anyway. She is being very kind and intelligent and diplomatic because does he ask Hip Hop artists why Nicki Minaj or Snoop or Young M.A. ? I mean *rolls eyes* and also, "I thought you were shy?" OMG it is VERY COMMON for artists, and theatre kids (myself included, I studied with classmates like Paul Rudd in L.A. when we were kids) many of us were shy in person and I was put into theatre because I thrived there and not in school or irl circumstances. I'm a little upsetted at the tone here, it's like he's trying to get her in an insincerity? and then agrees with his own anecdote. Confusing interview style. Maybe it's me because he's speaking to a genius and I'm triggered lol ;) LOVE CHRIS, the new material and images out now are the best yet. xo
I pretty much agree. I don't necessarily think he's trying to have a 'gotcha' moment though, as much as he is just very focused on his own level of understanding instead of the conversation as a whole. I don't think he's malicious, but it does come off as kind of ignorant. Chris WAS being quite generous with him, it's kind of impressive how she never talks down to him but just elevates the conversation subtly.
smoothblink Yes, agreed on all points 🤓👍🏻
I’m 59 and she’s got me really excited about new music finally!!
I’m 62 and she is rocking my word. I’m in love again, with her and it feels good and painful.
Adore her. Such a fantastically intelligent, creative and wonderful human ❤
The joy and magic of reinventing yourself really shines with Chris.
Great interview, love how good the questions are
questions were trash. dude is like jian ghomeshi 2.0
Écouter Chris parler en anglais pendant des minutes est le meilleur ASMR qui soit lol
Her intelligence and expression are on another level, and thats what I love about her, added to her music and 'stage theatre' Im overwhelmed. I'm a fan!
“On the level” a true Noir statement I love it!
I really admire Chris a lot
I love how honest and real this interview is.
love her! so a great inspiration these days! the pop artist I was waiting for! and yes ..she is very genuine and this is very powerful! thanks, Chris for sharing your art! yes...being on stage is the best place to be..because you can create your rules and be free! is like home.
Her accent is just ❤️😭👌🏼
French 😂
I commend her for being able to give such an insightful and genuine interview given the shallowness of the interviewer
great interview! i am a huge fan her music! she has such a beautiful soul and everything about her is as well.
What a great interview. Absolutely fantastic
How is her English that GOOOOOOOD
She lived in the UK for a few years.
She's big on england 😂😂😂
her father is/was an english professor at the university of nantes
I would say Chris doesnt know how talented, mysterious, sexy and interesting she is. I call her Euro cool. With my time travelling Europe I was more exposed to continental artists. Artists I would neve have had the opportunity to appreciate, if I was in the UK. Although I love the UK scene with vigour and enthusiasim and being bias love the UK scene more. When I was travelling Mainland Europe it was different in a uniquely European way. Every country had its own feel France was actually more staid and conservative than expected whereas Germany I thought would be stlited obviously a prejudice developed through the idea that Germany was full of engineers and mathematicians. How wrong I was, Germany was so cool so many artists with so many great nights out . Much wilder than nights out in France lol.
I love her music and performance....and ❤️ and appreciate this intelligent interview so much...
Love this interview, it's thoughtful, honest and articulate,
She is the coolest person on the planet💯❤️
Hands down one of the best interview I’ve ever had the pleasure or watching/listening to. What an asset to the music world and human race.
Man, she is cool.
What a great interview. Thoroughly entertaining and interesting. Thank you!
So versatile and intelligent.
Not a great interview! She mentions how she wants to talk about music and not gender issues all the time, and he immediately asks about pansexuality; he notices Michael Jackson influences in her latest video but not Tilted (makes me wonder if he watched it) - in general he seems unprepared and uninterested. And then, "Let's talk about music" - he says, and shows Christine being pulled on stage by Madonna.
I feel this. the interviewer was inexperienced. sonically, the album is incredible. she expressed not wanting to talk about the heavy stuff/social issues and that's what he does. it's a good thing she's naturally wise and eloquent.
She is such a lovely, articulate person!
My god I am in love with her
22:27 Noiiiiice
A remarkable, talented artist. A composer, beautiful singer and dancer, performer .And so much more. I am struck by her talent. Actually blown away!! And I am struck by her genuiness. Sorry I may be wrong but the interviewer definitley does not appear to be asking unconditional questions, reading notes for prompts in a tiring manner. Questioning appearance and dancing style. Good artists and people in general, grow, develop and change. I hope Chris just remains true to herself and whom ever she loves and is loved by. I hope she is not swayed from a good balance of her ying and yang
I love the Chris album. It's definitely in my Top 40 favorite albums of all time.
Only 10 Minutes in an this is allready One of the Best. Interviews i ve ever seen.
Isn't art something amazing!? The artist wants to send a certain message but the public can relate in a lot of ways... That's the reason why all forms of art expressions are special...
Chris is a complete artist! ♥️
Great interview. Christine is so likable.
She is so intelligent oh my God
Great interview. I especially love that she acknowledges The Knife's Shaking the Habitual album at 26:59.
I adore her and her music
this was just fantastic
I really love her voice and the French accent
In 20 years we will look back on Chris, and their personas as so important in music, culture, art and equality. Listen, watch and learn.
i remain. a fan - amazing talent
je ne comprend pas l'Anglais mais je me régale toujours d'écouter sa façon de parler, elle est vraiment adorable!
And so tiny with BIG things for us. It’s true.
i am so excited that i've discovered this artist recently ! :)
Christine is just amazing 😉
Fantastic interview!
Such a talented Artist. Forever love the video to 'The Walker'
Women with French accent are so classy and elegant!
I’m french and in my ear she obviously got an accent for sure, but not really the french one. Let me explain, she does an effort in her pronounciation. I’m agree that to your ear she got a french accent, but to mine she has a kind of british/scholar accent which is different and better to understand than the pure french accent. That’s only my point of view 😊😉✌️ peace
Oh, most French people either have a heavy accent or just don't make any effort, and I'm saying this as a French person. Chris actually has a very nice accent and it isn't very typical of French people. You can tell she's French, but her French accent isn't overbearing, it's rather mild. She knows how to speak with a clean, RP British accent, which makes her easily understandable. I love that about her! But only very few French people speak like that, you can't generalize that to French women.
RhythmAddictedState I couldn’t have been more agree ! Tu as tout dit, mais ça doit pas être évident pour un non-français d’entendre qu’elle n’a pas l’accent frenchy typique (zis iz it lol). As you said, few french people make the effort to get an english or american accent. And it’s definitely not a matter of gender at all
@@aniki937 Hahah ils ont pas encore entendu de véritable "accent frenchy" :D J'ai jamais vraiment compris pourquoi pas mal de gens de pays anglophones aiment l'accent français d'ailleurs. Moi je préfère les accents où on ressent qu'un effort est fait :)
RhythmAddictedState tout pareil 😊 j’ai jamais trop compris non plus. Je pense qu’ils associent l’accent au glamour, à l’élégance etc alors que c’est juste qu’on est nonchalant lol
I always thought Bowie too. :)
My
Heart... I know...
Wonderful interview, inteligent folks!
wow my woman crush
First heard of her when I worked at Levi's and they'd play Girlfriend a lot.
Linda Christine ..😘😘😘😘😘
Her accent, from my french native pov, is more close to the british one than the american one. She pronounce the « t » as itself not as « d » like americans do (this ain’t a critic). It’s very interesting
aniki937 bon soir. Her English is utterly beautiful. Perfectly correct pronunciation. Apart from that I think she is just so classy, sassy and intelligent. No um, like, maybe, actually etc of dubbo "stars".
Gary Lysaght I can’t disagree. You hit a point 😊
Bilingue en plus
I love her
We concur :)
does anyone know if chris's self portrait is available to read? i am desperate to see what else she says
Love it
I see Michael Jackson and Prince in their music and dance.
Her voice is asmr.
Fascinating human being
my wig went flying
I’ve been listening to Christine and the Queens and watching her videos and the whole time i’ve been thinking “Wow what a performer! Kinda like bowie!”
obviously as she states she’s clearly influenced by him but still, she’s so so damn good i can’t wait to see the trajectory of her career
I love how she says "damn" like an American. Daayum
okay this guy is acting like he doesn't believe her but at least it has her talking lol
DUDE HOW does he just enthusiastically bring up pansexuality RIGHT AFTER she says she wishes she could talk more about her music rather than gender and sexuality... bruh
she's great though wow.
also does he seriously think she'd dislike that people are dancing to her music... like she's been saying it's not all political
overall super calming influence, she's so smart and thoughtful (and relatable to me)
very introspective!
wow! And yea its what happens! Some ppl cant handle it and some cant! But keep being u
Stay positive Chris stay safe stay strong doing amazing keep going sending love from headway Nottingham UK xxx
No wonder I'm a fan ;-)
I want to meet her at this party she's talking about 😂 srsly, drop me a message, Chris ❤️😍
Je t'aime Chris gros bisous Rémi
I will try meet you if ever in Nottingham uk I have hypoxia lol stay safe x
Absolutely love the french accent when they speak english, arhhh. I already fancied her, but when I heard her speak. omgggg! I need to get me a french girlfriend :D
As a French girl who has lost the French accent when speaking English after living in the UK for a while, I should warn you about culture gap though 😅
@@lilar1053 I hear that more about France versus USA than say France versus England. You feel a culture gap much from UK to France?
They're overrated 😂
DoOES ANYONE KNOW WHEN THIS WOMAN AND HER GROUP ARE COMING TO CALIFORNIA??? 2022
