I dont mean to bring up physical beauty, since they are speaking on that stigma and the negativity of dwelling on beauty, but Roseanne looks so damn good; she aged so gracefully and well, she looks more beautiful than she ever has. Is is the hair or the yellow nails?
IVE ADOPTED ROSEANNE IN MY HEART. SHE IS MY AUNTIE. ANYWAY SHE IS A TRUE CRUSADER FOR ALL HUMANITY. . . . AND I WANT TO MEET HER SOMEDAY. AND FOR SOME STRANGE REASON EVEN HEARING HER VOICE HAS A CALMING EFFECT ON ME. GO FIGURE. OR DONT. EITHER WAY I LOVE YOU ROSEANNE. THANKYOU FOR SPEAKING UP AND OUT. I DIG IT TO NO END.
It's great to see these two have a serious conversation without having an audience to cater to. They are both right on the money about everything they talked about, people like this have been through so much and survived. Of course I love beautiful women, but few of them are interesting. Could you imagine being trapped on a LONG flight sitting next to Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian? Give me these two any day.
I hate the beauty judgment. I am a "classically beautiful" female, and it's insulting to everyone when people talk like that. I get told how ugly I will be when I get older and how my looks will fade. I value intelligence and people having such beautiful soul that shines through the exterior. These women are beautiful, and I wish they were celebrated more for that then they are. I enjoy aging. And they shouldn't have to think about body image so much, you don't compare beauty of babies or toddlers or teenagers. It's not the same. Toddlers are beautiful children for embodying wonder, young adults are not beautiful in the same way as older adults having different life experiences from the different stages.
I love this interview I am in tears right now for the message that Margaret Cho is expressing... my wife, sons, and I can all relate and I still cant convey how on relevant this !!!...
As a 48 year old singer / actress who is also a wheelchair user from birth, I am used to the assumptions society makes about having a disability & what that means. We make unconcious judgements & generalizations about people we percieve as different from the group we belong to all the time. Disability is a defining characteristic, like brown hair, blue eyes, or an innate talent, like my ability to sing. No negative connotation is attached that is a societal construct, based in fear. What I find most interesting is that from the age of seven on, I was made aware that the combinaton of things I happened to be was shocking to people. That year I sang in my first talent show, & was asked to model kids cloths in a News Paper add. My mother turned down the modeling she felt I was too young, & didn't want me hyper focused on looks. I was fully aware that I was considered by others to be beautiful, ( not because I, felt that way ) but because my being in a wheelchair was jarring for them, It was a reality much like my voice, that didn't fit some cookie cutter boxed image of disability, or the limits it is believed to impose. The last time I checked my vocal chords have nothing to do with my feet. You may well be shocked by the package the talent comes in, but that doesn't make it shocking. Bias rarely reflects reality. Having a disability is not a bad thing, & it doesn't make someone exceptional. We are people!! Not objects of inspiration or pity. Finding a cure for cancer is inspiring!! Presuming that simply living with a disability is in an of itself an inspirational act, is not only untrue, its insulting. I love my life, my wheelchair is an extention of myself, it represents freedom & independence. I am not suffering, trapped, sad, or waiting to walk, as the language surrounding disabiliy suggests. This, is the language of fear, which should never be confused for truth. The truth is, as long as there is life, there will be disability. It is within the spectrum of human experience, a part of the natural order. IT IS NORMAL!!! For as long as I can remember, I have been told that I don't ( look ) like I have Cerebral Palsy. What exactly, does CP look like??? News Flash!! We are part of the population, Genetics & The Law Of Averages dictates, that a percentage of us will be both, attractive & Talented.
I can't imagine being a woman worrying about the perception of others and the idea of beauty. But I'm glad that I appreciate humor and intelligence in women and not only beauty. If a girl is smoking hot, but dumb as a rock, I honestly can't be around them for more than 1 minute. Love Roseanne though, love her honesty.
I read Margaret cho' s memoir and she goes into detail about learning how to belly dance and how it empowered her to do burlesque. between her and Zoe Jakes of beats antique I got inspired to learn some belly dancing moves. I have found my confidence grew greatly through this
it's ironic how people comment how offensive theyre words are towards homosexuals, and these ladies talk of how offended they have been growing up with mean responses for being fat, looked down as a woman, or racism comments... I guess they've been through so much, they don't realize when they offend others. Other than that, it's amazing to see such funny ladies having a loong conversation without a single joke or hint of sarcasm. It's like soul sisters talking.
Wow, 2 of my most favorite public figures on the same screen discussing things that matter to me. Thank you both so much for making a rotten morning a whole lot better!
I am bisexual, my wife is full figured and we have felt the stigma that is on topic hear anf and today we had to defend my healthy 8 year old because my parents wanted to have him on a diet...and I was enraged and when i saw this I cried knowing that here is an example of overcoming societies double standards and living in beauty versus living in tears...both of these women have saved my psyche and my life with their wit humor and lifestyles...just further evidence that God is a woman
OUCH! Roseanne is the last woman I'd have expected to use "you look so thin" as a compliment. ABC put Cho through hell over her weight when she had a sitcom.
9:00 How about deciding to Stop Caring if you are this or that - beautiful or special etc. ?? Do what you have to to feel good and Stop Talking about if you're beautiful or not !
I agree with you that he should just speak for himself. But I also believe that you hate her NOT because she's self-entitled. I don't see any sense of self-entitlement in her whatsoever. You hate her because she's Asian or ethnic in general( you may hate other ethnics too). If you really hated her just because of her entitlement, there'd be no need to put the word "ASIAN" in your sentence! A self-entitled witch could be of any race! And please don't tell me that you have Asian friends and all that shit cause it doesn't mean anything. You could have all kinds of ethnic friends but deep down inside you're still a bigot thinking that they're are inferior to you!
i would agree w/ u if we're talkin bout Britney Spears who really doesnt have anything in common with gay people except she has a huge gay fan base but Margaret, even before she was famous has always been close to the gay community, her only friends were gays because they were the only ones that accepted her for who she was. so i think Margaret kind of "earned" the ticket to say those words, unlike like Britney, she dont give a sht about LGBT other than the fact that they buy her record.
full version? All I heard was her saying, "I'm third generation..." and that's it! How are you gonna call this full version when it's NOT! lol. Sorry if I am mistaken, but that's how it went for me. . .
omg Margret you are totally beautiful as a gay man my best friends have always been women beauty comes in all shapes and sizes color what ever .they have been there for me and vice versa
The thing is, as a gay man (and i only speak for my location and personal experience) I haven't been made to feel anything but unwanted since I came out. I know its not like that everywhere, but it's a shame to turn to the people who are meant to understand and draw a blank.
I think it makes a lot of sense. My two best friends as a teen were fat girls. I think they were also less superficial about their looks and had more humor.
i think the interview was good with the exeption of the "gay guys in model industrie who want skinny girls overwrite the cool gays dancing with "fat" chicks".its idiotic.do straight people who make it dangerous and impossible for me in most parts of the world to walk around with my boyfriend as any couple would, enjoying each other overwrite my wonderful straight friends who are always there for me?does roseanne overwrite them by putting me in a box with stereotypes because of who i love? NO!
@peterpan6 as i mentioned i dont think she meant to be rude. but it still is rude. i mean its like me saying that heterosexuals like george bush, sarah palin or the president of iran overshadow heterosexual people in general.

This is so surreal to see!!! Roseanne interviewing Margaret Cho!!! That is awesome. Two of my favorite people. Thank you for providing this. :))))
I love Roseanne sooo much! She is brilliant!
I voted Obama his first term...but on his second run for office I voted for Roseanne!
I love all of Roseanne's interviews. I especially love the ones with Phyllis Diller. thanks for those.

Deep conversation.*
Love you Rosie!
I love this woman.
What an empowering conversation.
Really good interview.
Wow, Cho must be in heaven.. I remember she said at one point that Roseanne was her idol.

OMG

They're both so intelligent
Sorry, not buying it, but glad you guys are..to each their own.☺️ I like to hear different points of view..
OUCH! Roseanne is the last woman I'd have expected to use "you look so thin" as a compliment. ABC put Cho through hell over her weight when she had a sitcom.
Stay healthy!!!
I love ❤️ ❤️ you guys
You're both 🙌 great
9:00 How about deciding to Stop Caring if you are this or that - beautiful or special etc. ?? Do what you have to to feel good and Stop Talking about if you're beautiful or not !
11:48 Exactly Roseanne!

Having a preference doesn't make you racist.

"STAY AND FIGHT" -CHO
Sweet!
'stay and fight' stay where?
Margaret cho influenced the premise for Amy Schumer's "i feel pretty"?
I was a fat kid. Then a fat adult then I got really thin. Now I'm a little chubby and now that I'm 51, I don't even give a fuck.
I love this...
Two of the sexiest ladies in the world!
That's a whole lotta drama for a comedy series!!
And then Rosanne woke up and the entire democrat party and hollyweird turned againt her. BOOM. #WALKAWAY. 💖💖💖💖💖
@Nymphelyn if possible move to a big city maybe?
Forgive my ignorance, but could someone tell me why she's not wearing shoes?
+imscarlet Cause she want's too?!
i think the interview was good with the exeption of the "gay guys in model industrie who want skinny girls overwrite the cool gays dancing with "fat" chicks".its idiotic.do straight people who make it dangerous and impossible for me in most parts of the world to walk around with my boyfriend as any couple would, enjoying each other overwrite my wonderful straight friends who are always there for me?does roseanne overwrite them by putting me in a box with stereotypes because of who i love? NO!
WOW!!! I understand people have fat issues...but damn, they be obsessing over it like it's Krispy Kreme!
we could learn a lot from gay folks
@peterpan6 as i mentioned i dont think she meant to be rude. but it still is rude. i mean its like me saying that heterosexuals like george bush, sarah palin or the president of iran overshadow heterosexual people in general.
roseanne posed in playboy and in her last comedy special she got naked. what is she talking about?
Love Roseanne, really don't like Margaret Cho. I used to like Cho's act, but lately it's just not funny.
@brotmann86 but i am sill a fan of hers and like her, i just think that what she said is a dumb mistake of hers
I am gay and cannot think of anything more boring than fashion. And I don't think I am bitching...haha, I am gay not a bitching female.
Gay means you like d.
you appear to be a grossly misinformed minority on this issue.
"everybody is beautiful"....oh come on margaret....
we all are--in our own way! ;)
Why can't everyone be beautiful?
Margaret cho tried to be a comedian but all she did was make her parents and hard working asians look like fools. Watch her earlier "comic" days.
Twit
DITTO!
poignant.
Roseanne couldn't just say you look good, not Thin.
There's a whole lotta crazy in that room.

Yeah. And YOU'RE IT!!! HAHAHA😃👏
