@Ra Akhanaten People are usually violent out of anger. Why are you angry at Billy? Because being the person he is, he's richer and more successful than you are?
This video could have lasted hours! 40 minutes is way too short for the magnificence of these two great actors. What a wonderful conversation between two humans. Thanks Variety
I don’t just want more Billy Porter, I NEED more! The series of Pose touched me with the depth of love the director felt, and a certain freedom all the actors felt in response. It shows, and it’s a treasure. ❤️❤️❤️
This is a beautiful interview. Wow, Billy Porter is SO self-aware and humble. And, Rachel Brosnahan had some wonderful insights, as well. Representation does matter. Thank you, Variety!
This really was such a pleasure to watch and listen to. The mutual respect and admiration that they have for one another is genuine. I did feel the emotion and nearly teared up while Billy was sharing. AWESOME.
This was wonderful, informative, inspiring, heartwarming and fun! I have always been a fan of Billy's and I also love and admire Rachel!I am white, hetero woman....a senior, Jewish RN. Always rooted for Billy -such a talent, appreciated his 'real self'. Maisel is the first time I saw Rachel and I think that she is very special and very talented! Thanks for this great session❤🎉
I would love to see these two acting on something together! Actually, it would be cool if an older Mrs. Maisel somehow appeared on Pose in the early 1990s!
Mr Porter hit the nail on the head on why certain people want celebrities to keep their opinions on matters of social issues to themselves. It's because people listen to them and they do have the power to help change the world! KEEP ON BEING YOUR AUTHENTIC SELF MR PORTER AND ALL OTHERS WHO ARE! LGBTQ, Females, Minorities, etc BE TRUE TO SELF!! The world will eventually catch up.
Love this pairing in this interview! And I love how his suit and her gold dress skirt matched✨👏🏻... both of their shows are SO awesome! And just transformative into a new time even though it’s a past time!
No words. God knows what he's doing. Billy Porter has been around, for YEARS. Now literally out of thin air he's at the forefront with a message and a truth the world needs to listen to and accept ... Role model, legendary, ICONIC. ❤!
Hahah yeah the best part is that both actresses are aware of this and Evan commented on one of Rachel's pictures on instagram that she thought it was a picture of herself for a solid couple of seconds before she realized it was Rachel! 😂😂😂
so I am going to SPEAK this into existence, I hope Ryan Murphy is listening and we get a All Black/Latinx/Asian cast of Gypsy and all the other roles are as is dexcept Billy as Mama Rose who then can fall in love with a man, Brian Stokes Mitchell or Norm Lewis as Herbie. Maybe Anika Noni Rose as Gypsy and Todrick as Tulsa
I Saw particular revelations come to light in both their eyes throughout the conversation. We all "know" things but to work the mind and mouth to articulate that which we have pondered through communication I find is where the true magic happens.
women can wear pants but when men wear dresses its 'disgusting' - i love billy porter... the amount of people who never realise this fact and never think to examine what it could mean about our society is shocking. also what he said about being surrounded by the lgbt community and still not realising the extent of trans people's experience is SOO important. the sooner everyone realises that there is always more you can learn about how others experience the world the sooner that empathy can start to change things. there's no such thing as a "perfect ally" since the best we can do is keep listening and learning. LOVE
@@TNDCBaby Because he's LOUD, like a LaVar Ball. But I like and respect them both and their contribution to move the culture forward. Besides they're a reflection on the black community and I'm proud of them but I don't want to like them. Sounds crazy, I know. lol
@@CharleneWithrow That is funny. I feel like we're conditioned to dislike that in our people. Sam Kinnison, Roseanne, Jerry Lee Lewis and others made a whole career off of it. Plus, he's larger than life so a loud voice seems about right. :) LaVar Ball is sometimes loud AND wrong so I understand. LOL I kidn of loved how he carried that young lady who'd been disrespecting them and then expected him to be cordial in person. I was DYING.
@Petrus Delassio Yes he does. He is doing an excellent job but not kissing the ground of no man. lol. I'm more than certain you are royal too therefore I will throw flowers on your path for you feet to step upon because I know you're on your way to greatness or sparking the mind that will make a change. Blessings Petrus
I always wonder how they pick pairings…. Do they pick two random people and hope they know each others’ work? Or do they call and ask potential candidates to see who they know? So curious…
"Misogyny and the hatred of things feminine transcends just the biological female community." - Rachel Brosnahan.
Alione one of the best things said in this conversation.
The ability to craft such a nice thought and phrase on the spot really proves how smart and well educated she must be
This!!!
Reminds me of the intro of that Madonna song
“Girls can wear jeans”
Typical
I LOVE how interested they are in each other. I wish all actors talking to each other behave this way
billy porter must be protected at all costs
and revered as the Goddess he is.
@Ra Akhanaten why, because he's kicking ass and not taking names because they don't matter?
@Ra Akhanaten People are usually violent out of anger. Why are you angry at Billy? Because being the person he is, he's richer and more successful than you are?
AGREED!!! he is a gem.
@Ra Akhanaten Correct it! He needs his ass KISSED!!
“You can’t have a testimony without a test” Damn. That’s a 💎
This was a great pair to put together. Love Billy so much and Rachel is lovely
engaged, inclusive and inquisitive. Great pairing! Absolutely loved.
Billy is such a captivating person. When he talks, I listen

Anyone tear up at Billy sharing his struggles with the industry?
Yes!!! And the boy that was bullied that drew strength from Billy wearing the tuxedo gown to the Oscars.
I LOVE how Billy manifested Ryan Murphy into his life.
I just simply love Billy Porter.
Man I absolutely adored this interview. An amazing pairing. So much ground covered, such a genuine look on both of them. I just loved it.
I feel like any time I hear Billy Porter speak, I learn something HUGE about life.
So many parts of this conversation gave me goosebumps. So thoughtful and important.
BILLY PORTER DROPPING GEMS!
That suit is everrrrythingg duuuuhling (in my billy porter voice)💕🔥
Rachel is Billy Porter’s hype man in this interview. Every answer she’s like ‘Yup. Yeah. Mhm.’
You're smile is contagious!!!😁
This is a beautiful interview. Wow, Billy Porter is SO self-aware and humble. And, Rachel Brosnahan had some wonderful insights, as well. Representation does matter. Thank you, Variety!
Billy Porter is a goddess and remarkable human. I am blessed just to breathe the same air.
Bullshit.

I don't even have anything eloquent to say about this, utterly amazing pair of artists

TWO EMMY WINNERS!!!!
the energies of these two blend so beautifully. amazing conversation
I love them. They are both so articulate, open and responsive to the world around them.
I would love to see these two acting on something together! Actually, it would be cool if an older Mrs. Maisel somehow appeared on Pose in the early 1990s!
This would be amazing

Great conversation, both listened to each other sincerely. Very interesting!
Nooo I didn't want this to end!! One of the best pairings this year. 🖤🖤
One could listen to Billy Porter for hours. That jawline and cheekbones..
Best episode of Actors on Actors yet. Show me a better one. Where is it because I want to see it. So powerful.

Love this pairing in this interview! And I love how his suit and her gold dress skirt matched✨👏🏻... both of their shows are SO awesome! And just transformative into a new time even though it’s a past time!
These two lovely people have my heart. I was feeling down and seeing both of them pop up felt like a blessing ♥️
Midge and Pray Tell. Oh my favorites!
Shine Sidney I feel like their characters would be friends.
Hands down two of the finest shows on television, I'm so excited to see these two sit down together!
Wonderful conversation.
Thank you Variety for pairing up these two gems of humans for an excellent conversation.
No words. God knows what he's doing. Billy Porter has been around, for YEARS. Now literally out of thin air he's at the forefront with a message and a truth the world needs to listen to and accept ... Role model, legendary, ICONIC. ❤!
I enjoy his freedom to be who he is.
This was an amazing pairing. Chemistry as more than artist came through, Loud and Clear. I loved it.
So much respect for Billy and possibly in love with Rachel
Rachel looks a lot like Evan Rachel Wood with the blonde hair.. I was confused at first ..
Hahah yeah the best part is that both actresses are aware of this and Evan commented on one of Rachel's pictures on instagram that she thought it was a picture of herself for a solid couple of seconds before she realized it was Rachel! 😂😂😂
I always confuse them.
Me too 😬🤷🏽♀️
Vicki_Brosh That’s really cute. 😊 I wish I had seen that.
@@ItsBritneyBitch1 when you mistake someone else for being you 😂 I'm WEAK
I've watched many of these. This one is the best. Love them together.
I love this video. Both people asked questions and gave space to the other to answer. Fantastic.
This actors combo??? Yall won!!!

Yesssss billy porter
women can wear pants but when men wear dresses its 'disgusting' - i love billy porter... the amount of people who never realise this fact and never think to examine what it could mean about our society is shocking.

Billy jacket is so amazing. he looks so handsome yet like a star but subtle and artistic but not over the top. great interview
This is the BEST actors on actors.
They are up lifting each other so much and are curious about one each other so much. I wanna be part of their conversation

Julia louis-dreyfus Vs Rachel Brosnahan at Emmys
DEV PRATAP SINGH I love rachel but it definitely should be julia

could have listened to that for more than 40 minutes.
OK Rachel Blondesnahan!!
Omg she is really blonde shes really not midge dude I wish midge was real but that's Rachel who has blonde hair woooowwww
When you’re pretending to interview someone but you end up talking about how great you are lol
“It was a dark time. We were living in a plague.” Just wait, Billy...
Same, I honestly had no idea misogyny still ran so deep in 21st century America.
I love me some Mrs Maisel
Abençoou meu dia
Rachel Brosnahan is the most beautiful woman on Earth.
This video REFUSED to play on my Roku. It would automatically jump to another video.
Same here
I don't want to like Billy Porter but it's extraordinarily difficult to dislike him.
Why don't you want to like him?
@@TNDCBaby Because he's LOUD, like a LaVar Ball. But I like and respect them both and their contribution to move the culture forward. Besides they're a reflection on the black community and I'm proud of them but I don't want to like them. Sounds crazy, I know. lol

LaVar Ball is sometimes loud AND wrong so I understand. LOL I kidn of loved how he carried that young lady who'd been disrespecting them and then expected him to be cordial in person. I was DYING.
@Petrus Delassio Yes he does. He is doing an excellent job but not kissing the ground of no man. lol.

I don't mind LOUD it's awesome as long as you're not LOUD AND WRONG, LOUD AND RUDE, LOUD AND DISRESPECTFUL. I'm good

Nice to see two girls talking..😂😆🤣
