I don't care how long she spoke, she was great. When she said, "Shut that crap off", I laughed and cheered and applauded. The legendary Bette Midler is fantastic. And to heck with the drones who criticize her.
You know what -I saw this and while I never really liked, or thought I liked, Hello Dolly, and really only went to see her, I LOVED it. She was fantastic, but this production was stellar even without her, and she is right - it really did lift my spirits. I've seen a ton of musicals on Broadway and this one of my favorite productions. Who knew?!! Go see it if you can - I'sure Bernadette Peters is good too, but the show is wonderful.
personally thought eva noblezada deserved to win because of her incredible emotional and technical skills as an actor and a singer, but then again i did not see hello dolly and just from this speech you can tell bette midler has an awesome stage presence
Good for Bette! Nearing the end of a spectacular career she has every right to demand to be listened to. (and as much as I hate people recording on their phones, thanks for this video: it was interesting seeing behind the cameras)
@@mgeek1 Dear lord, I hope not! But it said "of a spectacular career" - not life. She does a few roles every now and then (thank God) but she has said that she is going to retire. :/
I loved the vantage point of this! I shelled out $350 for a single ticket et je ne regrette rien (fuck off auto-correct). Bette is a legend who will endure forever. I remember buying her very first album and telling my mother 'This is one for the ages.'
A comment was made about 'clearly you haven't seen the other nominated performances....' Clearly, I prefer to be entertained and not depressed by the 'entertainment' of a show as overinflated as some of the other shows were (I see you Miss Saigoon). Who put the most butts in the seats, though, huh? Audiences PAY to see Midler, and stay for the rest of the show! True, actorwise, she didn't give a gut-wrenching, death defying performance, but she wasn't supposed to! She was memorable, and carried the show on her shoulders. These lovely younger women, if as tenacious as Midler, will have more opportunities coming up. And saw 3 out of the 5 performances, btw. ALL deserve recognition.
All Thought It's Been So Many Years Ago . I Bet , Bette Still Remembers us being together . But Like She Said She Never Looks Back .. It would be so nice if she made an Exception this time ....

Only Bette. Anything less would have been a disappointment, but nothing touches her presentation of best song to Arthur's Theme on the Oscars in 1982. if you have not seen it, search for it here. It's the most hilarious thing you will ever hear.
Interesting points about this 1. Bette is a shy away to completing her EGOT. 2. She brings an interesting point about the word revival. Their are so MANY Broadway musicals that can be revived. Some of these shows were over shadowed and redone through out the years. STOP reviving Fiddler on the Roof! 3. If Hollywood was smart.. they could make a remake a movie musical starring.. with the Divine Miss M!
Oh you are so right....leave Fiddler for a decade and a half, please! And then do it right, will ya?! Amazing show, but I have yet to see a good production of it.
I think it was the greatest moment of the whole damn show! Who cares if she went on a bit long -- did you have to go to the bathroom so badly?! Did the extra three minutes take away so much from your scintillating life?! Jeez, let the broad speak!
At the 52nd Academy Awards, Bette Midler was nominated for best actress for The Rose (she didn't win). But her ad libs were the funniest thing going. I always felt that she should have been chosen to host some awards show after all of these years. She was that quick on her feet. I've changed my mind. Last night, she was just plain rude and self involved. At the end of the ceremony, I loved what Kevin Spacey said about her, under the guise of President Underwood). She needed to stop talking.
Really? In your life, or for that manner, almost anyone's life, did you ever get an award? She is, as always, fun to watch. And, what you don't realise is, she worked her ass off for most of her life. Maybe her humility button was turned off because she is always aware that opportunities don't always come again. As Streisand said: Don't rain on (her) parade.
Bette Midler Spent A Lot Of Her Time With Me , And Even Asked To Sit Next To Me .... So She Pulls Up A Chair And Sits Very Close To Me ... Then She Said And Did Something Next To Me , I will Never Ever Forget ...... I Really Miss Us Talking ......... She Was So Nice To Me .......
Hi, would it be possible to feature this video in a news story on Metro.co.uk? With full, on-screen credit to you of course, and any additional hyperlinks you may wish to specify. Contact me at chloe.darnaud@metro.co.uk for more details - thanks!
It wasn't hilarious. It was rude. She's not more important than the other winners that kept their speeches within the allotted time. Apparently she thinks otherwise...
These shows are rude.They have time for all the commercials,but not to let the artists thank the very people without whom they wouldnt be standing there.
@Noelia Jaime it won't let me reply specifically to you lol ok but being rude and telling the orchestra to "shut that crap off", then talking after they're done playing, is different from just going over time. there were lots of winners who went a little over and courteously wrapped up. the orchestra even gave Bette 150 seconds, A FULL MINUTE LONGER THAN ANYONE ELSE, before they even started playing. just being diva-ish and going on because you're "above" or "better than" the people running the awards is not okay. (by the way, the broadcast, at least for me, had to be cut off only about a minute into the final song, probably due to her running over time.)
I love Bette Midler, but she went way too long thanking everyone should could think of. I turned it off after a while. Did she mention her daughter and husband.
I could forgive someone who is winning their first tony to go on a bit longer than necessary, after all they are probably in shock and excited. An actor or actresses dream is to win a tony. But Bette took way too long. And she wasn't even as good as the girl in Miss Saigon in my opinion.
i understand that this may possibly be her last award, which is why she acted that way, but again this is an award show, it not just about you, no matter how dedicated you think you are, or how much you may have deserved it; she failed to acknowledge others in that moment, which is such a pity.
She failed nothing. She did exactly what she was paid to do. Play the character of Bette Midler and make sure that her speech, from an awards show that is not watched by the masses, was front page news the following day - thus providing publicity for the Broadway show she was in.

Basically wants to hog the entire show doesn’t see to know when to shut up and move on after all it’s not all about her There are others and the show must go on as they say in show business
She did exactly what she was paid to do. Play the character of Bette Midler and make sure that her speech, from an awards show that is not watched by the masses, was front page news the following day - thus providing publicity for the Broadway show she was in.

This isn't funny it's rude. The orchestra should've been a clear sign that she needed to stop, she took longer then she should have. It's unfair, she isn't special and doesn't deserve anymore time then the rest of the winners. Take a look at Chris Jackson's twitter, the teleprompter was lit up with a message saying 'please wrap it up', maybe not that exactly.
Actually she IS special. How many people would have purchased tickets for the revival of Dolly had Midler NOT been cast for the lead? How many viewers would have tuned in to watch the awards if she wasn't a nominee? If the awards are intended to honor extraordinary talent, then don't try to sweep them off the stage like yesterday's newspaper.

I was literally screaming at my tv "BETTE. LEAVE. BRING ON LIN. ANNOUNCE BEST MUSICAL AND BEST ACTOR. OMG BETTE SHUT UP!" And in all of this, you know who she NEVER thanked? Her HUSBAND. Not even when she thanked people on twitter. NOT ONCE. Poor guy

she's such a diva it's fabulous
I still like this speech soo much
cause she is funny and she knows timing
"shut that crab of"😂😂😂
“Shut that crap off!” There’s only one Bette! Love her!
Lmao the teleprompter said "PLEASE WRAP IT UP!!" (no joke. look at Chris Jacksons twitter)
dont forget that extra exclamation point!!!
Jealous.
Me when I get my Tony: I'd like to thank myself because everyone else was just a pain in the ass the whole time thank you for this Tony, me! (Lol)
Zero Mostel and Jackie Mason beat you to it.
Poptart the Squid wow you must think you’re pretty funny
Or you can give a gracious thank you to the little people:: the producer; the director; etc.
Bette Midler is such a icon!!
Oh the irony of Glenn would of had to give Patti a Tony.
Ryan Souch I was thinking that. Would loved to have seen Patti go up to receive it from Glenn!
I wanted that to happen so badly!!
Yikes!!!
But they had made up by this.
This is just another reason she is called The Devine Miss M. She is just perfection!
You know what -I saw this and while I never really liked, or thought I liked, Hello Dolly, and really only went to see her, I LOVED it.

Amazing performance by Bette. Saw her in the second round and I’ll never forget it. She was made for the role.
I'd rather hear Bette Midler speak than the whole rest of the show.
Themusicaljourneys, me too, love her.
personally thought eva noblezada deserved to win because of her incredible emotional and technical skills as an actor and a singer, but then again i did not see hello dolly and just from this speech you can tell bette midler has an awesome stage presence
Yep, Bette Midler is the best, loved her in " Hello Dolly" she was great.
I love this person and this woman ❤
Bette, you're the best then there's the rest.
Thank you for this and much more.
What a legend!!
Oh
OMG how much I loved seeing Bette in Dolly ... Bliss
Good for Bette! Nearing the end of a spectacular career she has every right to demand to be listened to. (and as much as I hate people recording on their phones, thanks for this video: it was interesting seeing behind the cameras)
Nearing the end? Is she dying?
The end? Doesn’t sound like it!
@@mgeek1 Dear lord, I hope not! But it said "of a spectacular career" - not life. She does a few roles every now and then (thank God) but she has said that she is going to retire. :/
@@mgeek1no she hasn't stopped yet, I hope she does some more stuff, she is just as funny now as ever, long live Bette Midler, 😂
What i would give to see Patti get the award from Glenn
I loved the vantage point of this! I shelled out $350 for a single ticket et je ne regrette rien (fuck off auto-correct). Bette is a legend who will endure forever. I remember buying her very first album and telling my mother 'This is one for the ages.'
Lol, you are so funny,
She's BRILLIANT no matter what she does !💙
The Divine Ms M. Stellar
Bette is a classy lady and a awesome lady actress and singer !
bette midler i love you

Shut that crap off!!!!!!! 💞xxx
Has anyone ever broke out and sung along with the 'get off the stage' music? Cause I think that would be quite funny!!
I love her!!!

Hey Patti lupone did the Same thing in 2008 for her acceptance speech!! Give miss middler a break. Xx
Hefin Rosser I don't like Patti lapoun
Hefin Rosser actually she yelled at the orchestra and left while they were still playing. She didn’t continue after the orchestra.
You could also tell that Patti did it out of happiness and excitement that she was up there again. Bette Midler was just a bit rude and self obsessed.
Patti did not go on anywhere near this long after the playout. there is no real comparison.
Patti went on for 30 seconds while the music played, while Bette went on for almost Three minutes. They both did tell the music to shut up tho. LOL
OMG glenn close in the category which Patti Lupone lost in! Shady!!
She is Bette Midler, she can say what she wants in the time that she wants, she is slow talking and that ... is something bad?
"Shut that crap off." THANK YOU!
No one can stop an orchestra like The Divine Miss M.
I know,the band should have waited, that was rude, but she told them, didn't she, love her so much
My beloved and me

All she needs is an Oscar to get that egot
Bluestar918 she won an Oscar for Original song in 1982.
I think she’s missing the Emmy
Paula Barrows she doesn’t have an Oscar 🤷♀️
Adriana Cuevas she has like 5 Emmys
@@AdrianaCuevas17 She got an Emmy for Johnny Carson's last show.
do you have the performance of Miss Saigon?
Sorry no. Just DEH and CFA. Im gonna upload DEH soon.
omygawd…
LOL!!!
I think it was the greatest moment of the whole damn show! Who cares if she went on a bit long -- did you have to go to the bathroom so badly?! Did the extra three minutes take away so much from your scintillating life?! Jeez, let the broad speak!
Folks be salty on this thread.
As much as she's worked since what the early-mid 70's... yeah, yall had a few minutes. lol
So conflicting because I live Bette and yet I think Eva deserved this Tony

Hannah The Confetti Queen - I 100% agree. I was also rooting for Eva Noblezada as well 😊
Bette deserves the win. DISAGREE
Bette is a legend and her performance was by far the best of the season
Hannah The Confetti Queen clearly these people haven't seen Miss Saigon
Tash Kay oh you have not even seen any of the other actresses perform have you. You would know eva and denée deserved it more

I feel like the audience was kind of clapping to get her off stage too.

I love to hear her sing, and I love to watch her act, but the politics of this creature makes my skin crawl. I rather she didn't speak.
