Brian Jones said that to Dick Clark on AB about Mick Jagger being a sex symbol for the men. Anthony K. Is so smitten by her he totally embarrassed himself. He's a dunce and Flea isn't. Fleas the star in this band. Anthony K. Is exhausting. Even Flea is annoyed by his band mates ego. Dudes a jerk.
When asked what her least favourite interview was: “The Red Hot Chili Peppers, because they were really crass on camera, swore a lot, appeared to be real troublemakers and then as soon as the cameras stopped rolling they would apologize and say ‘Are we pushing it too much? Should we tone it down a little?’ They were just putting on an act. They were my least favourite because they were faking the cool.”
@@pachucodreamsLol, it doesn't mean they were posers; do you understand that *most* bands are entertainers first? It's also possible she said that because of the backlash Anthony got for openly flirting with her. She obviously liked him, and it would be understandable she might say "yeah, it was just a put-on" in order to stop all the people bugging her about the interaction.
They were still kids. Look how young they look. They had just made the transition from underground breakout band with a couple of hits to releasing one of the biggest albums of the decade where every single song was a total banger and becoming international superstars. It was the most creative part of their careers. Every single song on Blood Sugar Sex Magik was a total banger. Not to make excuses but they were very young and on top of the world!
They were young boys filled with testosterone sitting in front of a very beautiful young lady,of course they were gonna act like fools…that’s what we do😂
When 'Much Music' hit the airwaves, all Canadian teen boys suddenly fell in love with Erica. Professionally, she was so amazing in every way: well researched, genuinely interested in what she was asking and always found a way to connect at a more human level. As someone else stated here, she was so natural.
Its amazing that we are being able to watch all this ammount of priceless stuff. We had mtv in brazil, but it had its own production and foreign material did not get through, thanks mate!
The kiss portrayed a lot about Anthony, his assumption that she wanted it, and she said no multiple times, and he just kept on as if she wanted it. It says a lot.
Erica Ehm was a top notch interviewer and personality. I have such great memories of this era in Toronto with Much Music, she was very influential - a household name, Really, when I think about this period of music in Toronto, her and Michael Williams, Steve Anthony Monika Deol and of course Master T! are as part of the music scene as the music itself. I'm so glad I got to live through this time period.
I discovered her by accident a couple of years ago and was instantly smitten. I think I've watched every one of her Much Music interviews on UA-cam. She's gorgeous, intelligent, funny - if I'd been born in Canada or she'd been broadcasting in Ireland, I'd definitely have been tuned in every day! Plus, she did the best Kurt Cobain interview I've ever seen.
I THINK he’s saying that he wouldn’t do something for her but for anyone else he would do it for half the price. Implying that even less of a reward is better than working with her. That he’d take less just to not do something for her. But it is confusing, i agree lmao.

@@evanburgess8428Well it was a pretty silly claim. He said she said if he didn't kiss her then she wouldn't go see their show, but then didn't want to be kissed? Doesn't add up.
@@NyQuilDonut Yes it adds up fine, which is why people who get birthday presents still act surprised despite having the same birthday every year. We will never know what actually happened, but this was about 30 years ago, social conventions were 100% different to today, and women were more of the opinion of "appearing" hard to get. The scenario "Make me look good and desirable to my friends!" was 100% likely back then. LIterally anyone alive back then would have noticed the differences over the years. The fact remains my claim is far more likely because... it is 30 years ago and she never said anything to contradict what he said. Of course, you can live in your fantasy world where everything is a crime according to imaginary conventions/laws 30 years in the future. And how do you square the circle of the fact he did this "joking" display, then she asked about his dick? Are you just completely stupid? Imagine you tried to kiss a girl because she had flirted with you, then she "doesn´t leave" but afterwards asked you how your dick is doing? Would this make you go "Ah, she clearly doesn´t like me!!!" or would you think "Hmm, she seems to be playful." There is a very odd set of people who seem to believe women aren´t sexually aggressive, and she clearly was, but all you see is a video of her deleted out of it and "an innocent victim" inserted. Absolutely stupid. There is nothing more stupid than people like you who don´t even understand the run time of these shows back then (It ended on time) and the fact VJs were renowned for trying to stage incidents of "wild behaviour" to pull in ratings. If you can´t accept she egged him on then you must be living in a dream world, she even talked about how girls must be ripping his clothes off. You dumb.
That's Erica Ehm during her MuchMusic days. She later went on to host a daily talk show for the Lifetime network. She later married and had kids. Erica was also a mommy blogger, author, and professional speaker.
The la's were interviewed by this great lady about 2 years previously and they did an amazing acoustic version of timeless melody and they were super respectful and Gentlemen. She looked very intrigued by the two Englishmen
@@s.l.s.l.1405 she was VERY good. Never made it awkward and knew how to get out of questions without stopping. If anything Her beauty is what made the guys talk so well with her.
Blood Sugar was an awesome album. Saw them at Irvine Meadows in '92 and it's still the best concert I've even been to. It was day one of Lollapalooza and they came out in just their socks....not on their feet.
These guys have clearly interviewed with Erica before. Erica is just comfortable with them and bantering. And some people in the comments think there is actual animosity here...
Yea I was a big fan in the 90s and then just kind of quit listening. I got on drugs pretty bad and hadn't seen or heard RHCP since " Roller Coaster". This past year I was somewhere and heard Anthony's voice on a TV , it was the " Black Summer" video and I couldn't believe his transformation lol. The somewhat of a mullet and the mustache makes him look completely different ( also 20 plus years) but I still like them just as much as back then and I have a ton of stuff to new stuff to listen to but even the older stuff never gets old to me.
@Joaquin Diego I know nothing about that lol. Hopefully your not being serious but if he is I guess your right, there's nothing wrong with it. I know I heard a recent interview he was in and he was talking slightly feminine.
She suffered under some serious disrespect from the music "community" and "fans" back in the day. I remember a friend, a bartender at the Diamond, later the Phoenix, telling me of a night the crowd had her in tears. A patently untrue, unfair and undeserved characterization as a pretty airhead. Misogyny to the nth degree. Despicable.
I'm sure many women, even as late as the early 2000s, were expected to EXUDE some degree of sexuality by the producers. Especially, with musicians. In this interview, there is a slight "acceptance" of it on her part. I don't know that it was genuine, or a part of her thinking "this is a shitty part of my job". Not necessarily to flirt with Anthony Keidis, but to be objectified in any way. It's terrible that this was, and I'm sure still is, a part of being a journalist for a woman. I think all 3 of them understood that their conversation was a "gig". But, I'm sure an interview with Motley Crue was much more disgusting. Young male celebrities who are a sex symbol of some degree must be a drag for professional women to have to deal with, for the most part. Not as many would understand the situation and think to make some amount of "light" with it. The Chili Peppers are amazing true human beings. I can't imagine the obstacles that come with being such, AND being famous. Especially at that age.
One thing I always noticed was that every female presenter of a rock/metal show would always get criticized or extremely sexualized by the viewers. Same thing happened with Vanessa from Headbangers Ball... Female musicians don't have it any easy either. The rock/metal community was always misogynistic, unfortunately
I knew these guys at Fairfax in the eighties. Anthony was very arrogant, but also already pretty messed up . After decades of hard drug use, homelessness, and dizens of overdoses, he finally humbled himself and took the help. I think hes changed a lot, but he will always have that rock star confidence that can make him seem a little condescending.
Anthony still has unresolved issues. I know from fact (the ladies have receipts) that in Brazil, the band's photographer, David Mushegain, contacted "Instagram models", those young ladies had "family passes" to the shows and we're hanging out at the hotel. Of course some of them posted the photos on their social, without Anthony but thanking him and David. Because he can't go around forcing himself to kiss a woman on the check these days, that could get him in real legal trouble or even physical harm from fans that would take that as a consent sign. That's why he was with bodyguards in Brazil, people were chasing them everywhere. In my country none of this happened, he went with David to do a photoshoot in the General Cemetery. I don't think any fan met him there. They didn't "scout" ladies here. I don't know about Argentina.
As teens, we looked up to guys in rock bands as if they were prophets, hanging on every word. Now in my late 40s, I look at interviews like this and just see regular guys in their 20s who happened to be good rock musicians. Btw, that interviewer is a sweetheart. Wonder what became of her?
@JoKro lol, what an unhinged take. Your aggressive response to my innocuous comment is not my problem, it’s your problem and an indictment on how you were raised. Honor your caregivers better, do better. Get help, son.
It's crazy how time shifts that perspective, isn't it? Especially having been in bands when I was in my 20's and very early 30's, I look back on this and see so much of that same attitude I used to have about life and music and everything in between.
Same here, wasnt much into the chili peppers but the bands in the 90s I was into I was obsessed with! Now I'm 39, and I cant get into any music! The new stuff is all pop garbage and I'm tired of the old stuff .. sucks because music used to be my savior as a kid
@@izzydeadyet7336 I can’t stand this take. I’m 30 so I’m. It that far behind you. If you can’t find new music you like, you’re straight up not looking for new music. Some of the best rock and roll I’ve ever heard is happening right now. I don’t know how you’re missing it but do better and quit living in the past man. You’re backing yourself in a corner and pretty soon you’re just gonna be another “back in my day” guy you grew up hating.
I'd forgotten how cute Erica Ehm was and I miss those interviews of Toronto's 'MuchMusic'. She reminds me of a girl I knew in college who looked very similar and who was very funny and outgoing and they both had a kind of Marisa Tomei-like quality in appearance. :)
Are you people blind?? She was friends with them and joking around. I’m starting to think the majority of these comments are from ppl who learned social skills from UA-cam videos
@@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakes THIS. (although probably the last bit at 14 minutes in she probably could have done without. That went a bit far and the offscreen bosses were getting ticked. But I don't see her as feeling anything about this besides the opposite of what regret is :) )
"Do you know how many letters I'm gonna get?" Ah, times have changed. She may have gotten letters then, but now everyone can read those letters immediately.
haha i watched this live over 30 years ago when it was broadcast! Haven't seen it again until now! I was a Muchmusic addict until the mid-1990s. Flea is as I remember him, this guy that just...well...I wouldn't want to have socialized much with.
I knew a guy just like Flea at a homeless shelter I stayed at once. Same look, voice, mannerisms, the works. Wow. What a trip. I guess it is true what they say about we all have a doppelganger somewhere out there.
Back in 1989....I was Student Council Pres of my high school, and we ordered a Much Music Dance Party w Erica Ehm. After the show, she was chatting with a bunch of us, and she was really sweet. And of course, Erica is such a cutie...and I had a HUGE crush on her...I was a bit drunk, so I asked her if I could have an autograph and a little kiss.....her reply?? "Yea, sure buddy...*eye roll* uhhhhh nooo...no way am I kissing a high school kid" after a bit of awkward laughter....I said...Maybe I can call you in about 15 years?? Her reply....I'll call you.ok?? I never got that phone call...ohhh well...I tried In all seriousness though...Erica was a great host and put on a great dance party. Really cool and funny and didn't mind chatting up all the high schoolers who wanted to meet her.
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar Those were the days where softcore ruled and just pretty chicks like Erica in tight jeans and that sultry voice left much to the imagination. Now with a click of a button you can see everything. Took away that mystique.
She handled herself so well. They did get out of line. It would be interesting to have seen if she started discussing just how long they lasted and she’d have rated their abilities and such. Turned the tables on them and put them in the hot seat
@@La_br00tal_mija true but she was simply trying to play along and not seem as phased about them trying to call her out and make her uncomfortable and embarrass her in public television…it’s not quite the same. Which is why I was inferring it would have been interesting to see if she would have then embarrassed them how they would have taken just as well as she did
Anthony really behaved like a prick, kissing her when she had expressly refused, asking her about the color of her underwear etc… Flea was less so, but he didn’t try to stop Anthony and he also behaved like a prick in the end. That’s difficult to see after Me Too, one can only hope that these guys have matured a little. The interviewer still manages to act professionally and make her interview. Respect to her!
what she is saying is one thing, and what her body language is saying is another thing. she refused with words because of her job, but she was all bubbly and smiling at the same time.
@@loonaya So « she said no but she really meant yes? » When a woman says no, it means no, no matter what men and their fantasy want to hear. I see a young woman who is too shy and embarrassed for giving him the slapping he deserves. You seem to be blaming her for not knowing exactly how to react, instead of blaming him for acting like a pig.
Bro its flirting. They say no sometimes but it actually means try harder. They like the attention if ur the guy they are interested in. Its hard to figure out how to read them sometimes but this is a thing.@julienrp7511

The scenario "Make me look good and desirable to my friends!" was 100% likely back then.
LIterally anyone alive back then would have noticed the differences over the years. The fact remains my claim is far more likely because... it is 30 years ago and she never said anything to contradict what he said. Of course, you can live in your fantasy world where everything is a crime according to imaginary conventions/laws 30 years in the future. And how do you square the circle of the fact he did this "joking" display, then she asked about his dick? Are you just completely stupid?
Imagine you tried to kiss a girl because she had flirted with you, then she "doesn´t leave" but afterwards asked you how your dick is doing? Would this make you go "Ah, she clearly doesn´t like me!!!" or would you think "Hmm, she seems to be playful."
There is a very odd set of people who seem to believe women aren´t sexually aggressive, and she clearly was, but all you see is a video of her deleted out of it and "an innocent victim" inserted. Absolutely stupid.
There is nothing more stupid than people like you who don´t even understand the run time of these shows back then (It ended on time) and the fact VJs were renowned for trying to stage incidents of "wild behaviour" to pull in ratings.
If you can´t accept she egged him on then you must be living in a dream world, she even talked about how girls must be ripping his clothes off. You dumb.
Of course, because secretly she liked it.
That's Erica Ehm during her MuchMusic days. She later went on to host a daily talk show for the Lifetime network. She later married and had kids. Erica was also a mommy blogger, author, and professional speaker.
that kiss was creepy AF
Not at all if you listen to their earlier music. How many bands would be asked about their genitalia, for instance?
@@davidmeichner8346So the music one makes is an excuse for being creepy?
Was looking this comment
@@davidmeichner8346 That made no sense at all.
What a waste of 17 minutes. Only watching for this kiss moment that never happened...
I love the way she handled them so professional love to see what happens next off camera
Thanks for the memories... Erica Ehm on Much, such a sweetheart 👍
Erica Ehm!! Haven't seen her in years!! She was awesome (and beautiful)!! I'm Canadian and watched Much Music religiously when I was a kid!
Perfect example of enjoy the music but don't look up to the people.
No it ain’t
Wow a demonstration of projection right here ! The interviewer did great !
I would hate too see an interview of myself in my early 20s
They had to be close to 30 around this time , I do get your point though
God me too.
@@Cyanapanasati he’s 60 now
This is October 1991 tho. They are almost 29.
@@djodie222 Even still, they are in their 20's lol
The la's were interviewed by this great lady about 2 years previously and they did an amazing acoustic version of timeless melody and they were super respectful and Gentlemen. She looked very intrigued by the two Englishmen
She was loving this whole situation. Especially Anthony.
Timeless Melody. A girl named Penelope.

She’s so funny and good natured about it lmfao
She handled those louts brilliantly🤘
great word for them
She really is a great interviewer.
@@s.l.s.l.1405..... Well, there's no denying her beauty but, she was more than capable of dealing with Kiedis.
@@s.l.s.l.1405 she was VERY good. Never made it awkward and knew how to get out of questions without stopping. If anything Her beauty is what made the guys talk so well with her.
@@s.l.s.l.1405 wow just reducing a woman to her looks.
@@Basedgawdess I thought she was quite monotone.
No.@@Basedgawdess
she was so smart sharp and adorable. in that interview very few people could have pulled that off the way she did.
Blood Sugar was an awesome album. Saw them at Irvine Meadows in '92 and it's still the best concert I've even been to. It was day one of Lollapalooza and they came out in just their socks....not on their feet.
Erica is Gorgeous! And she held her own in this interview!
These guys have clearly interviewed with Erica before. Erica is just comfortable with them and bantering. And some people in the comments think there is actual animosity here...
She literaly make an interview later about awkard she was
Nah she said later on it was absolutely awful, and they were completely fake. She's just being a total pro here.
She has my heart
These 2 were wild as hell back then. Fun interview to watch. ‘The Rabbit Hole’
Said dildo and ejaculate. Omg! How wild
Yea I was a big fan in the 90s and then just kind of quit listening. I got on drugs pretty bad and hadn't seen or heard RHCP since " Roller Coaster". This past year I was somewhere and heard Anthony's voice on a TV , it was the " Black Summer" video and I couldn't believe his transformation lol. The somewhat of a mullet and the mustache makes him look completely different ( also 20 plus years) but I still like them just as much as back then and I have a ton of stuff to new stuff to listen to but even the older stuff never gets old to me.
I'm a huge Flea fan. He's a great multi instrument musician and I believe the greatest bass player on the planet!
@@easternncbigfoot1288 The mullet and the mustache goes well with the boyfriend he's dating.
NOt that there's anything wroooong with that!
@Joaquin Diego I know nothing about that lol. Hopefully your not being serious but if he is I guess your right, there's nothing wrong with it. I know I heard a recent interview he was in and he was talking slightly feminine.
She suffered under some serious disrespect from the music "community" and "fans" back in the day. I remember a friend, a bartender at the Diamond, later the Phoenix, telling me of a night the crowd had her in tears.
A patently untrue, unfair and undeserved characterization as a pretty airhead. Misogyny to the nth degree. Despicable.
We all had this.
Was the bartender Edwin? He legit worked there. I was shocked it was him and he looked at me in disgust.
@@ColdBlackEarth it wasn't Edwin.
I'm sure many women, even as late as the early 2000s, were expected to EXUDE some degree of sexuality by the producers.
Especially, with musicians.
In this interview, there is a slight "acceptance" of it on her part. I don't know that it was genuine, or a part of her thinking "this is a shitty part of my job".
Not necessarily to flirt with Anthony Keidis, but to be objectified in any way.
It's terrible that this was, and I'm sure still is, a part of being a journalist for a woman.
I think all 3 of them understood that their conversation was a "gig".
But, I'm sure an interview with Motley Crue was much more disgusting.
Young male celebrities who are a sex symbol of some degree must be a drag for professional women to have to deal with, for the most part. Not as many would understand the situation and think to make some amount of "light" with it.
The Chili Peppers are amazing true human beings. I can't imagine the obstacles that come with being such, AND being famous. Especially at that age.
One thing I always noticed was that every female presenter of a rock/metal show would always get criticized or extremely sexualized by the viewers. Same thing happened with Vanessa from Headbangers Ball... Female musicians don't have it any easy either. The rock/metal community was always misogynistic, unfortunately
She's a real sweetheart, and beautiful too. And she was prepared, and had good questions.
I knew these guys at Fairfax in the eighties. Anthony was very arrogant, but also already pretty messed up . After decades of hard drug use, homelessness, and dizens of overdoses, he finally humbled himself and took the help. I think hes changed a lot, but he will always have that rock star confidence that can make him seem a little condescending.
Anthony still has unresolved issues. I know from fact (the ladies have receipts) that in Brazil, the band's photographer, David Mushegain, contacted "Instagram models", those young ladies had "family passes" to the shows and we're hanging out at the hotel. Of course some of them posted the photos on their social, without Anthony but thanking him and David.
Because he can't go around forcing himself to kiss a woman on the check these days, that could get him in real legal trouble or even physical harm from fans that would take that as a consent sign. That's why he was with bodyguards in Brazil, people were chasing them everywhere.
In my country none of this happened, he went with David to do a photoshoot in the General Cemetery. I don't think any fan met him there. They didn't "scout" ladies here. I don't know about Argentina.
Changed into what??
@@bolivingston1400 in to a guy who no longer lives under the bridge.
he fell into guru muhk
She's a beauty. What a personality.
Erica Ehm was always so classy and intelligent.
As teens, we looked up to guys in rock bands as if they were prophets, hanging on every word. Now in my late 40s, I look at interviews like this and just see regular guys in their 20s who happened to be good rock musicians.
Btw, that interviewer is a sweetheart. Wonder what became of her?
@JoKro lol, what an unhinged take. Your aggressive response to my innocuous comment is not my problem, it’s your problem and an indictment on how you were raised. Honor your caregivers better, do better. Get help, son.
It's crazy how time shifts that perspective, isn't it? Especially having been in bands when I was in my 20's and very early 30's, I look back on this and see so much of that same attitude I used to have about life and music and everything in between.
That's Erica Ehm. She's a Canadian treasure and entrepreneur and much more. All around awesome lady.
Same here, wasnt much into the chili peppers but the bands in the 90s I was into I was obsessed with! Now I'm 39, and I cant get into any music! The new stuff is all pop garbage and I'm tired of the old stuff .. sucks because music used to be my savior as a kid
@@izzydeadyet7336 I can’t stand this take. I’m 30 so I’m. It that far behind you. If you can’t find new music you like, you’re straight up not looking for new music. Some of the best rock and roll
I’ve ever heard is happening right now. I don’t know how you’re missing it but do better and quit living in the past man. You’re backing yourself in a corner and pretty soon you’re just gonna be another “back in my day” guy you grew up hating.
She's beautiful! And handled that so well.
times have changed.
Remember the singer from Cinderella practically drooling over her years back it was great viewing
Anthony Kiedis Is word salad and then he's like ok I said all these words lets screw now.
I would have ended the interview as soon as I found out theyre the red hot chili pepers
Same. Or asked for time and a half with a huge bonus.
Flea is so stoned LMAO
He looks like the character, "Doug Needles" in Back to the Future.
He is lol that's flea
I'd forgotten how cute Erica Ehm was and I miss those interviews of Toronto's 'MuchMusic'.
She reminds me of a girl I knew in college who looked very similar and who was very funny and outgoing and they both had a kind of Marisa Tomei-like quality in appearance. :)
Erica Ehm, one of the original Much Music VJs, good interviewer. She knew how to handle their bullshit.
Are you people blind?? She was friends with them and joking around. I’m starting to think the majority of these comments are from ppl who learned social skills from UA-cam videos
@@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakesI was thinking the same thing. It's bizzarre.
@@ShinyFlakesShinyFlakes
THIS.
(although probably the last bit at 14 minutes in she probably could have done without. That went a bit far and the offscreen bosses were getting ticked. But I don't see her as feeling anything about this besides the opposite of what regret is :) )
She handled that as well and professionally as one could under the circumstances.
Can't believe Erica is now 62. I remember crushing on her back in the day.
I'd still do it
She won't be 62 until Sept 30, 2023
Dude you're Canadian??
That was the most Canadian rock and roll outlaw trouble-maker interview I've ever seen.
She handled these CLOWNS like a BO$$!!! 👍👏👏👏😎🤑
Wow she was great! And lmao on the whole interview!
"Do you know how many letters I'm gonna get?" Ah, times have changed. She may have gotten letters then, but now everyone can read those letters immediately.
lol lol lol lol lol
and even those who did not watch the interview can send letters
I love them.
The chillies were on full troll boss mode here.
haha i watched this live over 30 years ago when it was broadcast! Haven't seen it again until now! I was a Muchmusic addict until the mid-1990s. Flea is as I remember him, this guy that just...well...I wouldn't want to have socialized much with.
Yep , Flea was that little smartass who would subconciously or consciously beg to get a beatdown at every house party.
Really? How many hard core rock stars do you hang out with?
She is so professional and respectful - she was too patient with these stooges.
put down the weed mam.
Stooges? What the fuck are you on Louise?
Just keidis lol
Erica Ehm - the Canadian Marina Sirtis.
I can't think of one male in the Much Music generation that wasn't madly crushing on her.
Anthony looks like the lead singer of Crash Test Dummies...
awesome interview. I miss the 90s ;)
I knew a guy just like Flea at a homeless shelter I stayed at once.
Same look, voice, mannerisms, the works. Wow. What a trip.
I guess it is true what they say about we all have a doppelganger somewhere out there.
Flea's not the only Chili Pepper with a doppelganger. Chad Smith has one that used to be on SNL.
@@andrewdavismusic5020 did you see the duo drum off on Jimmy Fallon?
@@andrewdavismusic5020 Si, his name is Will Ferrer. He's hilarious!
It was probably Flea 😂
@@TheTruthKiwi Asked the guy if he can play bass. He says no. Hands him a bass. Pulls a Token.
I Remember, the first time I ever saw Flea was in the movie suburbia! 😂
'He wears a dress."
"He does not."
"He does."
"Oh ,well." 😂
"Okay, I love the bark on command" 😂
Wow that brought back memories of my early 20’s. Never really cared for the Peppers personally.
Man I loved conversations before the internet. They were so raw.
Humility is a wonderful quality
Not entirely inaccurate, but still somewhat click bait-y title, but the video is better than what I even expected, so I guess I can't complain!
Back in 1989....I was Student Council Pres of my high school, and we ordered a Much Music Dance Party w Erica Ehm. After the show, she was chatting with a bunch of us, and she was really sweet.
And of course, Erica is such a cutie...and I had a HUGE crush on her...I was a bit drunk, so I asked her if I could have an autograph and a little kiss.....her reply?? "Yea, sure buddy...*eye roll* uhhhhh nooo...no way am I kissing a high school kid" after a bit of awkward laughter....I said...Maybe I can call you in about 15 years?? Her reply....I'll call you.ok?? I never got that phone call...ohhh well...I tried
In all seriousness though...Erica was a great host and put on a great dance party. Really cool and funny and didn't mind chatting up all the high schoolers who wanted to meet her.
Who didn't have a crush on her back in the day?
Sweet! We had to settle for Master T at ours lol.
@@crazyangus862 Master T was ok come he promoted those dance mixes:)
@@YesYouCANPlayGuitar Those were the days where softcore ruled and just pretty chicks like Erica in tight jeans and that sultry voice left much to the imagination. Now with a click of a button you can see everything. Took away that mystique.
And now Anthony Kiedis looks like Moe Howard.
Legend has it Mike Patton was her favourite singer.
He's a wackjob too but yeah he's a great singer.
@@gregcosta6965 Wtf are you talking about, Mike Patton is Einstein level when compared to Kiedis in every possible sense.
@@roljavi Did i say he wasn't ? Don't be stupid.
@@gregcosta6965 You literally called him wackjob, stupid.
I remember watching this live October 1991
Ty for posting the date. I figured it to be the early 90s. Not sure why tf they don't put the dates on these things.
Anthony Kiedis' speaking voice reminds me of Prince.
Different from his singing
Remember the days when people could just goof around like this and not be so uptight, I miss the 90's.
She handled herself so well. They did get out of line. It would be interesting to have seen if she started discussing just how long they lasted and she’d have rated their abilities and such. Turned the tables on them and put them in the hot seat
She also brought up their junk twice and tried to say they’re the ones obsessed “with their penises” 🤷🏻♀️
@@La_br00tal_mija true but she was simply trying to play along and not seem as phased about them trying to call her out and make her uncomfortable and embarrass her in public television…it’s not quite the same. Which is why I was inferring it would have been interesting to see if she would have then embarrassed them how they would have taken just as well as she did

Her name is Erica Ehm..this is from the late 80's or early 90's.
Yeah, everything you said
Great interview do ✅
You could NOT get away with this shit today!
Anthony really behaved like a prick, kissing her when she had expressly refused, asking her about the color of her underwear etc… Flea was less so, but he didn’t try to stop Anthony and he also behaved like a prick in the end. That’s difficult to see after Me Too, one can only hope that these guys have matured a little. The interviewer still manages to act professionally and make her interview. Respect to her!
They have.
what she is saying is one thing, and what her body language is saying is another thing. she refused with words because of her job, but she was all bubbly and smiling at the same time.
@@loonaya So « she said no but she really meant yes? » When a woman says no, it means no, no matter what men and their fantasy want to hear.
