I was an extra during the filming of Judy, and i can honestly say off camera Renee is the loveliest most friendly star you will ever meet, I hope she gets an Oscar for Judy, she was amazing xx
I wouldnt call it "hiding". Comment sections are anonymous. People give opinions. Some are nice. Some not so nice. It comes w the territory of being a public figure.
I was an extra in the Talk of the Town scenes. When we filmed Renee singing Over the Rainbow, her performance was so powerful and tragic we were all in tears, including the crew. I've never experienced anything like it, it was an honour to have worked on it.
Wow. I cried watching it on screen so I can't imagine being there in person seeing Renee sing this song live. I can not stop thinking about this film. I have plans to see it again.
Congrats to you for being part of such a special cinema event. Judy G was a vocal power house. I have special memories growing up watching The Wizard of Oz. Renee is an acting force. I am not surprised everyone on set was in tears. Renee nailed it. Hope you get more incredible opportunities. Best wishes.
As an old gay man, Judy is definitely sacred , I pushed myself to see the film. Renee my dear , enjoy your well deserved Oscar. She had me in tears throughout this movie. And I'm sure those of us still alive who referred to Judy as our gal and called our friends our best Judy , will be in full agreement. Brave performance ms. Zellweger and you deserve the Oscar. I truly believe Judy would agree.
On that same theme; I had an acting teacher tell us that, "You're reputation walks 10 ft ahead of you." That is true at an audition and in life. I think people should care about that idea.
@@GiGi-fd6om - THAT should be "placarded" across the wall in "every" Middle & High School in America! Too many don't really see this or care yet they live in the shadows. Or saddest, you get the really foolish like the ones on true-crime TV.
Judy Garland’s life and story is much more powerful than this boring, pointless movie that covers a little about Judy at the end of her life. Nothing made it clear to viewers that did not experience Judy know why she is an icon. Renee may be a wonderful person but she is NO Judy Garland. Do NOT recommend this film if you are a fan of Judy Garland. It is another lackluster, empty Hollywood film that shows the lack of talent and creativity in the current film industry.
Renée is the real deal. She can act, she can sing, she can dance…she’s the total package! So underrated. The Oscar should be hers. I personally believe that Judy would’ve loved her performance.
Gonnaneed Abiggerboat My point was that Hollywood snubbed her and somewhat turned their backs on her for the past 5+ years. Yes, I agree, she’s a major star, but deserves much more praise and less ridicule when it comes to her personal life and choices.
RedBowll ThaDevil I don’t think it’s Bells Palsy. It’s the plastic surgery gone wrong. It’s very noticeable. I think she’s a great actress and seems like a wonderful person
This is a genuine star. Well loved in Hollywood by all. I worked the red carpet for years as a cameraman and producer. Never heard a negative thing about her, only what an amazing and genuine human she is. That’s not an easy role to play. She’s the real deal.
I saw the film Judy two days ago...I am still reeling. I have not cried so much in a movie theater since the film TITANIC. Renee deserves the Oscar for Best Actress! I cried my eyes out and my eyes still are red what an emotional performance!
She didn't get her eyes done. When they approached her to do the Judy movie she knew she'd have to work at looking like her. So, Renee started wearing eyelid tape, the type worn by asians to get the double eyelid look without surgery. Renee has naturally hooded eyes from her Sami heritage, Judy had a visible eye crease. She also wore a small nose prosthetic while filming. It worked so well that wearing the eyelid tape in public was noticed and sparked surgery rumors. She kept the secret of her "look" not wanting to expose the Judy movie news.
I AM No expert but there have been surprises of late, and i personally think shes an absolute shoe in. She (has to) carries the while movie. Effortlessly.
Some love letter. Every moment in the film, Renee looked like she smelled cauliflower cooking. And that weird accent. I don't care if it wins every award in the world, this film was a steaming pile of fiction that fooled nearly everyone.
Me, too, even though I have followed her throughout her career. Her roles have been so varied. She seems fearless and vulnerable at the same time. She is a diamond in the rough - but that doesn't do her justice either.
Aloha Renee Zellweger !!!! Thanks so much for portraying Judy Garland !!!!!! She's a legendary icon and can't be replicated. Am 78 years old and have followed Judy Garland's career !!!!! She was beautiful, an angel, a great humanitarian, and loved everyone and promoted positively social and political and civil rights in our country !!!! She had a harsh life and despite her "hard" life she became a true and beloved American patriot !!!! Again thank you Renee Zellweger for preserving Judy Garland's legacy !!!!!!!!!!! Gratefully, Robert S.J. Hu October 15, 2020.
It’s none of our business whether she did something to her face or not. She’s a brilliant actress and a lovely human being. I can’t wait to see her in Judy! I’m sure she did her justice.
@@jimmymelendez1836 what do you think it means? If you can string a question like that you are coherent enough to understand the meaning, I'm not your school teacher.
Thanks, I enjoyed listening to Renee's comments about doing the part of Judy Garland and the review of her prior roles. Always was a fan, now after watching "Judy," an even bigger fan.
She is an extremely talented performer. I don't know why there are so many comments about her appearance. Her performance in the movie is what counts and she did an interview that was respectful of Judy Garland. Hoping for another Oscar nomination for her.
This story kept coming up on my "Recommended" and I kept bypassing it, thinking I wouldn't care much for this interview, WOW was I wrong, I'm so happy I chose to watch this interview. Renee is lovely and so down to earth, I'm now really looking forward to seeing this movie!
This chapter in the great Judy Garland's life will help people understand the demands of a talent, when they start out performing so young. Judy was only 2 years old when she first started in vaudeville, before she became a superstar at MGM and in live concerts. This is why Judy Garland died at only 47. The demands of the industry from her generation were too much and still learning!
Much more to than just that...the studios were always giving her a hard time about her weight and gave her diet pills at a really young age and those pills turned into other pills for energy working long days, and that turned into an addition. It as like child abuse they way they treated her like a money-making robot, overworking her and not caring about her health and well-being.
Judy Garland was my idol growing up and I was absolutely devastated when she passed away. Mom and I would sing her songs when traveling in the car, she was great at harmonizing. Judy, you left us too soon. RIP
@@akrenwinkle Is there something wrong with "Ms", a nuance I am missing? I am not a child, but perhaps I may be blamed for having a rapt reverence for a icon who suffered much in her personal life. I feel she should be knighted and called "Dame" Judy Garland. What a great deal of herself she gave the world!
I'll give it a try, but I'll be sorry. Judy Garland would not know what "Ms." means, women were not addressed as "Ms." during her lifetime and she had never been addressed as "Ms. Judy Garland" even once, and so it is inappropriate to do so long after her death. Also, Judy was the opposite of a feminist, always deferring to men. It is in total innocence when girls write things like "Ms. Eleanor Roosevelt." It is not necessary to be a child to think and write like one. Of course, in your case, it helps.
@@akrenwinkle Hi. Life would be so much easier if we all just commented on how we individually felt about this particular video. After all isn't that what the comments section is for? Why don't you comment on the video and not on my comment particularly since you don't really agree with it? Judy Garland was a public figure and she may have been called by many titles. For sure hotel staff referred to her as "Ms. Garland."
@@kkarand1 Judy Garland's only titles were professionally Miss Garland, and in legal matters, Miss Gumm, Mrs. Rose, Mrs. Minnelli, Mrs. Luft, Mrs. Herron, and Mrs. Deans or, as she liked to call herself, Mrs. DeVinko. She had not, even once during her lifetime, been addressed or written about as "Ms. Garland." There are two reasons for that, you imbecile: 1) the term "Ms." was not in use at the time; 2) even if it was, Judy would not have used it. You have only yourself to blame. You choose to go through life knowing as little as possible. I believe in free will and personal responsibility. You have made your choice and I don't GAF. Now, can you play with somebody else please?
@Michael K Not really? Well you are not one of the world's largest media organizations which has an army of fact checkers. It it was insane that they made this mistake. Insane.
Judy Davis already nailed it as Judy Garland in the HBO production "Me and My Shadows" several years ago but it was Judy Garlands real voice. I am very impressed with what I have seen and heard so far of Renee portraying Judy and doing her own singing.
@@kikr0ckz she's a gay icon because of her enormous talent, her struggles with the studio system & addiction, her dramatic singing style, her general intensity and brilliant light and the fact that she left the planet too soon.
I’m so excited to see this film. I think Renee has done a wonderful job of portraying one of Hollywood’s most tragic stories. Maybe now people will understand Judy’s life was much more than rainbows and yellow brick roads ❤️
Michael Fulk....for the most part Judy Garland was NOT a tragedienne. The things which happened in her life were heartbreaking, but the only thing I can consider tragic was her actual death. Garland was a very humourous person in real life.
I'm so looking forward to watching Rene "conjure" up the amazing Judy Garland! Rene looks great and seems pleased with the picture. Nicely done interview.
Wow, the last time I saw her was when she surfaced in 2014 looking like a completely different person. I'm glad she's back to looking like herself again (something about her eyes have been restored to their original shape). She's a beauty.
Judy Garland would be so proud... I think she did an AMAZING job just from watching the clips! And the VOICE!!! Who knew she could sing that well! Hats off to Renee!!!!!❤️
I can’t wait to see this movie next weekend... I’m going to the old Gateway theatre in Fort Lauderdale to see it. I’ve always been fascinated by her life story. Judy had so many wonderful moments. It’s amazing to see Rene embody her to this degree.
I absolutely love that renea said that there was a conjuring every day and that it was a love letter to Judy every day.... that is a true homage to her spirit and legacy
Renée is coming for that 4th Oscar nomination and 2nd Oscar. Believe it! She is my favourite actress along with Emma Thompson. I find her brilliant, humble, and lovely. Great interview!!
Thru Miss. Zellweger and her transcendent performance (which I paid to see TWICE) JUDY GARLAND will finally receive the Oscar denied her in 1955 and again in 1962. I always pictured Miss. Zellweger more as the JANIS JOPLIN type in her younger days, but was moved to tears by her transformation (and wonderful singing!) as JUDY. Bravo!!
She is actually a person who has something interesting to say. She is very articulate intelligent. How she words things is like poetry. She could have been a great writer. I do wish actresses could age naturally. I believe Garland went through alot of pain in her life, especially at the end. She was used and used up. Starting from childhood, and her own mother, the stage mother to end all stage mothers. You can not go through all she went through, and not become tough, hardened, cynical. Yet she still always maintained some spark that kept her going, when most would've dropped in their tracks. Renee seemed to understand Garland and embraced this role, doing it justice. I still cant help but wonder what her natural face would have been like and think she wouldve been cuter naturally. But to each their own i guess. She is still beautiful inside and out either way. She exudes a gracefull, intelligent, charming yet vulnerable, earthy humility that shines right on through.
LOVE Judy Garland! Not just an enigmatic performer, but TRULY left everything on the stage - heart, soul, intelligence, savvy, gave everthing! Thank you Rene, for honoring her so well!!1
She has lived her work life passionately for her craft and we have , fortunately, been the recipients of her extraordinary gifts. I just have to say, Thank you, for giving me such great memories through your films. XOX
A beautiful and very talented woman. Hollywood please stand up and take notice once more. Love you Renee' and so glad to see you back on the big screen.
this movie is excellent . Renee not only looks just like Judy in her latter days but sings as well as Judy did. Oh and did I mention Renee needs to win an academy award for her portrayal of Judy.
@@brececlark4076 - Yes her voice was "very unique" BUT in her last days - between the drugs & drinking and long past years of using & abusing - SHE DID NOT sing as well as she used to! THAT even came from Liza when she, emotionally, spoke of the many embarrassing moments that occurred to a once-powerful lady, as the 'drive' instilled in her for years to KEEP going no matter what, due to all those dam pills that 'HER MOTHER started' giving to her as a child!! SO - yes - Renee did a fathomable good job!
It breaks my heart that she died in the way she did. All she wanted was to be loved and taken care of. Why didn't anyone help her! It makes me so angery!!! RIP Judy the legend.
A n g e l o she started “popping pills” because MGM forced her during wizard of Oz. First pills to make her loose weight, then she couldn’t sleep because of them. Then barbiturates to help her sleep. Fast forward 30 years and that’s what killed her.
Rachelstorrersings I read somewhere that when she married Vincent Minnelli and became pregnant, she desperately wanted some time off and enjoy here baby and new marriage but she was making a lot of people money. It cost her her life years later. So tragic.
@@jillianw674 Is it that she couldn't lose weight through diet, so they suggested her pills? And then she decided to take sleeping pills for 30 freaking years? THIRTY. Damn what does it take for a women to take responsibility into her own hands? Always putting the blame on someone else
I did not see nothing wrong with Renee’s surgery she still beautiful as ever so I wish people would stop complaining about her face there’s nothing wrong with her she’s beautiful and she’s my second best actress of the century my first is Drew Barrymore and then Renee
I love her statement that "It was a love letter to her!" That's classy. And she did from previews earn an Oscar for this performance! Go girl! Katy, Texas is so proud of you I'm sure; having lived there. It is an awesome town/city now!❤❤💜
I was an extra during the filming of Judy, and i can honestly say off camera Renee is the loveliest most friendly star you will ever meet, I hope she gets an Oscar for Judy, she was amazing xx
😎 cool
That's so great to hear! A friend of mine served her in a restaurant back in the day and said the exact same thing :)
That's really cool. I hope you have an amazing career. Cheers. 💚
Awesome!!!
I think the Oscar is pretty much hers to lose
Adults hiding behind a screen bullying her on her looks. Renee has given us years of happiness on screen.
I HAVE BEEN BULLIED BY THE UGLIEST PEOPLE..IT IS CALLED ENVY.

I saw it too and Renee was amazing and now I want to know more about Judy.

I love her attitude!
“I could feed my dog, I could pay my rent...Life was good.”
You can tell she’s still not overly swept up with fame to this day.
miles -- I’m not so sure about that. She altered her face to apparently help her get more screen time. That’s extreme.
nicely said :) x
A n g e l o or maybe cause she really wanted to or was insecure from pressure? Not everything is about getting more roles.

Such a sweet and down to earth person who just happens to be an amazing actress too

She doesn't "just happens" to be an amazing actress. She's working very, very hard for it.

She didn't get her eyes done. When they approached her to do the Judy movie she knew she'd have to work at looking like her.

As Judy Garland a wolf whistle isn't justice.
Thanks Judy!
Judy Garland s family disapproves of this movie and so do I !
Well she’s 53 I remember when she just came on Jerry Maguire
I am glad she is back making pictures. I really enjoy watching her. She is a very talented actress and grounded person.
Judy Garland s family disapproves of the stupid biopic and so do I! Renee has no singing voice!
Just watched “Judy” and shocked that she was only 47 years old. She looked so much older. So incredibly sad.
And zellweger was born the year Judy died and was 48 when she filmed the role
Fingers crossed for an Oscar!
I can vote for Grammy's (NARAS) but not the MP Academy - Break a leg and scoop up those golden beauties!
Just what thinking movie release at the right time for the Oscar committee.

Anonymous one.....you are correct it was one ABC in two parts.
I’m actually unimpressed of her vocals idk
@@kikr0ckz she's a gay icon because of her enormous talent, her struggles with the studio system & addiction, her dramatic singing style, her general intensity and brilliant light and the fact that she left the planet too soon.
I’m so excited to see this film. I think Renee has done a wonderful job of portraying one of Hollywood’s most tragic stories. Maybe now people will understand Judy’s life was much more than rainbows and yellow brick roads ❤️
Michael Fulk....for the most part Judy Garland was NOT a tragedienne. The things which happened in her life were heartbreaking, but the only thing I can consider tragic was her actual death. Garland was a very humourous person in real life.
Love Renee Zellweger, can't wait to see the movie!! Also would love to see her play Shirley MacClain in a movie
Renee so humble person
What a nice interview! One of the best so far. Renée is an amazing and talented actress. Judy would be proud. 👸🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Ms Zellweger is so charming and such a wonderful actress.
I'm so looking forward to watching Rene "conjure" up the amazing Judy Garland! Rene looks great and seems pleased with the picture. Nicely done interview.
Rene is a great actress miss her in movies welcome back.
And the Oscar goes to....
Actress : Renee Zellweger
Actor: Joaquin Phoenix
They both won.. Did i call it or what?
yesss please ♥♥♥
I so like the way you think! And, I so agree!
Jayce Young j
Nope Tom Hanks will win for his role as Mr. Rogers!
Actress yes, Actor no. Hollywood doesn't like Joaquin much and Heath was already nominated for that character, they may nominate him but he won't win.
Excited for this!! Can’t unsee her as Judy now💜
I said hello to Renee, and she replied so politely, she so adorable, too much for words!
I want to see this movie so bad, she really looks and acts like Judy. Just wow.
WoW! - my heart feels so heavy and my eyes full of tears
Wow, the last time I saw her was when she surfaced in 2014 looking like a completely different person. I'm glad she's back to looking like herself again (something about her eyes have been restored to their original shape). She's a beauty.
Judy Garland would be so proud... I think she did an AMAZING job just from watching the clips! And the VOICE!!! Who knew she could sing that well! Hats off to Renee!!!!!❤️
No,Judy would have not been proud of mediocrity! Judy Garland s family disapproves of the stupid biopic and so do I! Renee has no singing voice!
I can't believe she can sing, too! Amazing!
Renée has such an ASMR voice in this interview. I love how natural and humble she is. True lady ❤
I can’t wait to see this movie next weekend... I’m going to the old Gateway theatre in Fort Lauderdale to see it. I’ve always been fascinated by her life story. Judy had so many wonderful moments. It’s amazing to see Rene embody her to this degree.
iMike 825 Have a great time. I hope it’s great. I think it will be.
Me too at the gateway!!!! Small world!👍🏻
I absolutely love that renea said that there was a conjuring every day and that it was a love letter to Judy every day.... that is a true homage to her spirit and legacy
Renée is coming for that 4th Oscar nomination and 2nd Oscar. Believe it! She is my favourite actress along with Emma Thompson. I find her brilliant, humble, and lovely. Great interview!!
Thru Miss. Zellweger and her transcendent performance (which I paid to see TWICE) JUDY GARLAND will finally receive the Oscar denied her in 1955 and again in 1962. I always pictured Miss. Zellweger more as the JANIS JOPLIN type in her younger days, but was moved to tears by her transformation (and wonderful singing!) as JUDY. Bravo!!
She's really smart, talented and beautiful in many ways!
The movie is a joy to watch, as Renee becomes Judy.It's fabulous.
She is actually a person who has something interesting to say. She is very articulate intelligent. How she words things is like poetry. She could have been a great writer. I do wish actresses could age naturally. I believe Garland went through alot of pain in her life, especially at the end. She was used and used up. Starting from childhood, and her own mother, the stage mother to end all stage mothers. You can not go through all she went through, and not become tough, hardened, cynical. Yet she still always maintained some spark that kept her going, when most would've dropped in their tracks. Renee seemed to understand Garland and embraced this role, doing it justice. I still cant help but wonder what her natural face would have been like and think she wouldve been cuter naturally. But to each their own i guess. She is still beautiful inside and out either way. She exudes a gracefull, intelligent, charming yet vulnerable, earthy humility that shines right on through.
Trashing the legacy of a legend by under-singing her legendary songs ?? Judy Garland s family disapproves of the stupid biopic and so do I!
At first I did not see her playing Judy, but she really did a great job.
Same, she can really transform herself into that character
@@FreedomofSpeech865 Agreed. Have a good one...
I just saw the movie Judy I forgot it was Renee. Renee did a amazing job. Just wow ❤️
Nice. I saw Audra McDonald play Billie Holiday in LADY DAY AT EMERSON'S/tony winner...hoping I get that same feeling when I see JUDY.
@@glennfromthebronx Oh, it's better than that.
Love letter to her,so sweet.🙂
From becoming the It-girl since Jerry Maguire, now she’s playing our 1930’s it girl
LOVE Judy Garland! Not just an enigmatic performer, but TRULY left everything on the stage - heart, soul, intelligence, savvy, gave everthing! Thank you Rene, for honoring her so well!!1
Trashing her memory is an honor?? Judy Garland s family disapproves of the stupid biopic and so do I! Renee has no singing voice!
Great Interpretation of Judy Garland in the motion picture "Judy'
really hope she succeed in winning the Oscar 2020 she deserves it
She has lived her work life passionately for her craft and we have , fortunately, been the recipients of her extraordinary gifts. I just have to say, Thank you, for giving me such great memories through your films. XOX
I love Renee portraying Judy .. she's so good and I bet she will get an OSCAR for her role !
Judy was the Edith Piaf of Hollywood. Beautiful in her own way and a once in a lifetime human.
Beautiful lady, actress, entertainer.... she makes my life happier.... thank you divine Rene!!!!! Love you"
A beautiful and very talented woman. Hollywood please stand up and take notice once more. Love you Renee' and so glad to see you back on the big screen.
this movie is excellent . Renee not only looks just like Judy in her latter days but sings as well as Judy did. Oh and did I mention Renee needs to win an academy award for her portrayal of Judy.
bryen keyth NO ONE sings like Judy. Let’s get that fact straight.
@@brececlark4076 - Yes her voice was "very unique" BUT in her last days - between the drugs & drinking and long past years of using & abusing - SHE DID NOT sing as well as she used to! THAT even came from Liza when she, emotionally, spoke of the many embarrassing moments that occurred to a once-powerful lady, as the 'drive' instilled in her for years to KEEP going no matter what, due to all those dam pills that 'HER MOTHER started' giving to her as a child!! SO - yes - Renee did a fathomable good job!
I love Renee. I am so happy she is back on the screen.
Renee is such a grounded, intelligent. lovely lady.
Great line - "(celebrity) it enters the room before you do!"
It breaks my heart that she died in the way she did. All she wanted was to be loved and taken care of. Why didn't anyone help her! It makes me so angery!!! RIP Judy the legend.
Ya, sure. Blame everyone else except her. She’s the one who started popping pills
A n g e l o she started “popping pills” because MGM forced her during wizard of Oz. First pills to make her loose weight, then she couldn’t sleep because of them. Then barbiturates to help her sleep. Fast forward 30 years and that’s what killed her.
Jillian W exactly
Rachelstorrersings I read somewhere that when she married Vincent Minnelli and became pregnant, she desperately wanted some time off and enjoy here baby and new marriage but she was making a lot of people money. It cost her her life years later. So tragic.
@@jillianw674 Is it that she couldn't lose weight through diet, so they suggested her pills? And then she decided to take sleeping pills for 30 freaking years? THIRTY.
Damn what does it take for a women to take responsibility into her own hands? Always putting the blame on someone else
She was simply divine in performing her role as the great Judy Garland!!!!!!
Bravo Bravo!!
Nicely done! A really well done interview 👏👏
I don’t understand how but somehow she looks like herself again, it’s amazing! So happy for her!
I did not see nothing wrong with Renee’s surgery she still beautiful as ever so I wish people would stop complaining about her face there’s nothing wrong with her she’s beautiful and she’s my second best actress of the century my first is Drew Barrymore and then Renee
Barbara Hyatt -- false
A n g e l o what do you mean false
Ignore the "false."
Her face is back to normal looking. It looks like she went back to using Botox. Her brow isn’t sagging anymore.
D.barrymore?? LmFAO
I have so much respect for her. She deserved every Oscar. She sings, dances and actress.
Just adore her... Love her in anything...
Great interview for a change. She was perfect for Chicago, I'll actually watch this movie
She seems so sweet! 💗💗💗
I love her statement that "It was a love letter to her!" That's classy. And she did from previews earn an Oscar for this performance! Go girl! Katy, Texas is so proud of you I'm sure; having lived there. It is an awesome town/city now!❤❤💜
