Kelly Clarkson may not be a fashion person on her own, but she has great stylists for her public face. This is one of my favorite Billy Porter interviews. I think it comes from mutual respect.
« The idea of acceptance and tolerance, I don’t need your acceptance, I don’t need your tolerance, I demand your respect for my humanity, like I respecte everybody’s else’s » Billy Porter Such a strong message !
Yes! I love it! As who are YOU to tolerate me? How magnanimous of YOU to accept ME!! No, thanks. Keep that. Treat me equitably, and I'll treat you the same. No more, no less.
Dang I am a huge Kelly fan, but I have to say objectively this interview is just amazing! She’s gotten really good at staying open and responding appropriately, matching energies etc. Billy Porter is also an icon and so wonderful and magnetic, truly a fantastically produced, hosted and presented segment by all those involved!
Great comment. Totally agree. Her humility and professional respect for her guests comes across as very genuine. She is a true gem, and majorly talented.
Billy made me cry. I screaming at the screen, "Billy! You are enough! You are AMAZING!" I see all the small minded people trying to dismiss the LGBTQ community, just to make themselves feel better. It just needs to stop.
Loved this interview so much ! You can see that they respect each other. Billy is so intelligent and speaks of compassion and acceptance with such passion. Kelly has really grown as an interviewer. I hope she does more of these longer one on one sit downs. Her 5th season has gotten off to a fantastic start!
What a beautiful interview. Thank you Billy Porter for your gifts - for your singing/writing which is amazing but mostly for your political voice in all you do. Kelly, thank you for using your power/influence as not only a white, cisgender, southern woman but as a STAR! Love to both Billy and Kelly - you are amazing.❤❤❤
I can relate,Billy .I had Acid Reflux and I lost my Voice for 6 Months and of course I had to be operated on to have a look inside my Stomach and Chords.What ever they Fond inside they just took a little niblet from my stomach chords to send off to the lab . All came back negative and was determined Severe Acid reflux.Yes my Voice was never the same but I have a Knew Voice now and Loving it.
My God Billy is my spirit twin.... 1st, I had a great Aunt Dorothy, 2nd I'm a black Queer man who sings, 3) I've had to fight Acid Reflux and adjust to my new Voice that EVERYONE loves. 4) How I dress is ON PURPOSE
I’m screaming… like Kelly went from being one of the greatest singers to eveeeeer🤩.. to bring an incredible talk show host. Guuurl. You’re a gift . And Billy, your work has just began, I’m glad you now have the stage to preach gurl.
Billy has such an exquisite way of expressing positivity and self affirmation that it’s just empowering! We don’t need permission to be ourselves. I agree that the word tolerance is denigrating because it is the same as saying “to put up with. “ and that is not showing respect it’s just another way of invalidating another person’s existence!
If any of y'all wanna hear how Billy Sound before The Acid Reflux...He has a cover of "Only One Road" by Celine Dion! THE BEST COVER OF THAT SONG EVER!!!! His new voice is just as amazing!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Bro I have had severe acid reflux on and off for the past 3 months and trust me it also causes pain in my throat from time to time I think this video is a sign for me to take serious medication help...
I would love to have Billy and Kelly over for a southern supper. I’m from the south and I would show out in the kitchen and we would eat and have a great time and fellowship!
I'm a Billy Porter DAY ONE fan! I'm talking from the 'Star Search' days. I knew SOMETHING had changed, but wasn't quiet sure what... BUT GOD!!!! See THE GIFT remained the same. When you can sing, YOU CAN SING!! Billy still sounds amazing and can sing the house DOWN!!!! We love you Mr. Porter!!!!!

A Capa high School me and Billy had so much in common. I had no idea he was a victim of a stepfather like myself. Billy when you walk down the hall you were on one side by the lockers and I was on the other. I'm so happy we didn't condem each other.
Billy is a creative genius, brilliant brilliant actor , writer and a truely amazing voice. His character in Pose was absolutely heart wrenching . Best tv show I have ever watched
@@theunknowncommenter725 as if your idea of what a real man is matters to anyone but you… no one cares, we all are gonna love and are gonna die, if you spend your life telling other people what they are supposed to do and aren’t based on imaginary rules then by all means have fun, but you have no say over anyone else’s life nor will you ever.
Chiming in because I have same. I take enzymes and neti pot twice a day. (allergic to everything) Working very well. And what is it about acid reflux and allergies going together???? LOL.
@@DonnaBoyleMedium lol I have no clue but they seem to be brother and sister 🤦🏽♀️😂…. I’m trying to find a balance and get it under control. It’s not easy to sing 1st or mezzo soprano anymore. My voice seems to have gone down an octave or two lol
For a few years now, I really think Billy Porter is my fairy godfather. I followed him for years, since the 90s, because of the vocals. I didn't know his journey until more recently. One of these days I'm going to end up a pumpkin and then he's going to find me.
It's sad that in today's world so many that are their own individuals are treated like they don't matter....sad really as being different....being yourself is being an individual...which is a good thing❤ The labels that others try to place on us become totally meaningless once we refuse to wear them....❤
Omg this is sooooo inspiring to me. Billy I commend you because a lot of artist like myself go through this. I suffer from acid reflux and have had severe acid reflux and God healed me but sometimes it feels like the condition of my vocals change or be in and out due to the fact but this is so inspirational because there’s so many people that are artist and go through this and then we down play or degrade ourselves because of our struggle or life circumstance. First off, as a singer with a raspy voice is not easy in my perspective because for me there’s techniques that I have to use for high vs low ranges or that I use to sing on any scale or key. It’s just a lil different having a distinct voice especially raspy. It takes work lol but this was so inspiring coming from another raspy amazing singer like Billy❤❤❤❤❤
I wonder if these people just think they are just regular people? I mean yes, everyone is regular, but that spirit you got in you, that's different! Here they are propelling the world forward. Billy Porter is an artiste extroadinare! Hugs! I don't know you, but wish you the best!
He speaks with such honest power of self-confidence in his identity, and pure power of hope. I’m so grateful Kelly created the space for this conversation to happen and we all got to LISTEN to Billy ❤ grateful for both of them ❤

AMEN 🙌🏽!!! Demand Respect because you deserve it if you give it.❤❤❤
@frozenwarning She is much lighter and more herself. Finalizing her divorce and moving to NYC has gotten her back to the happy, free Kelly of old!
I really appreciate an intellectual discussion that doesn't hold back on vocabulary...intellectual respect for the audience is evident...thank you!

I will never forget that tuxedo dress. I was blown away the first time I saw it. I’m in love with mixing male/female fashion so seeing that was 👏🏼
Well said. Just unforgettable. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I have gone to church with my two idols in the same house!!!! They said what needed to be said!!! Periodt!!!

Kelly has nice stylists to help her. Love that she transformed her physical and metal since 2022. Billy is just an icon. Live in truth.
Kelly you have your own distinct voice and Billy is spectacular always ❤❤
Billy Porter is so far beyond 'enough'. What an amazing and beautiful human being 😍
Whoa! Billy Porter! Preach my brotha. I agree with you 💯❤
I love this guy. He is an icon in the making.
Magnificent 😊 connection and dialog between 2 such beautiful, authentic souls.
This is quite emotional and inspiring❤ loosing your voice is devastating I must say. I love the old and new voice. You strong Billy🙏
I'm glad I watched this. I have not always been the biggest Billy Porter fan but I do see him now in a different light.
Kelly you are looking great, New York New York!
Love him, he is is larger thatn life, his life story is inspirational! ❤🔥❤🔥
I'm a Billy Porter DAY ONE fan! I'm talking from the 'Star Search' days. I knew SOMETHING had changed, but wasn't quiet sure what... BUT GOD!!!! See THE GIFT remained the same. When you can sing, YOU CAN SING!! Billy still sounds amazing and can sing the house DOWN!!!! We love you Mr. Porter!!!!!
No, his gift is nowhere near the same but thankfully he has learned in to the new voice and works with what he has now.
@@montgomerycamjr You completely MISSED my point... We all know the VOICE has changed, but his GOD GIVEN GIFT to use his voice is still the same.
I CAN NOT get enough of Billy Porter I could listen to him for hours😍
And that’s why I love you Billy!!! Stay who you are….never change and stay humble in spirit. ❤😊

Kelly has the best talk show on tv right now…and she is absolutely the best host.
Thank you Mr. Porter, I keep telling these Dr.’s that my voice is going due to acid reflux. You confirmed what I know.
