I love how Rufus has his eyes closed for almost the whole performance, looking like he's being carried away by the music. And his voice is truly magnificent...
Needed to revisit this for a good laugh. Mizrahi is so hilarious in this. So clearly lusting after Rufus, LOL. Especially funny are Mizrahi's expressions when Rufus is on the piano. And the dog is the icing on the cake. Oh well, at least Isaac has good taste.
I think he was trying to shut out the image of Isaac drooling all over his piano. It was the only way he could concentrate on his song. Mizrahi is clearly enamored with Mr. Wainwright, but I don't think the sentiment is mutual!!! And the dog running around is hilarious.
Omg even as a baby child here Rufus Wainwright hits the minor chords hauntingly and it melts my heart to the cory-est core crazy Cory SILLYHEART21 Spekka-Lange-Duhjst and here I leave the DaVinci code/Rosetta Stone so that I might be found AKA somewhere I pray find me whomever catches my Cosmic Frisbee. Will you let it pass or do you dare to dream and reach up to the stars and grasp it firmly before I stray out into a wormhole of oblivion? I hope you do. You know who you are. Bows and flows of angel hair and ice cream castles in the air ....
The talent that you need to play that long a song on a piano with your eyes close whilst singing, is certaiinly immense, only thing that other guy is smothering him and it makes the whole thing uncomfortable x
that would have suited the doco. Grey Gardens so well. The story goes that when asked what she would call the baby and she saidRufus her friend said That's a dogs name!
Anybody else reminded of Ewan McGregor watching this interview? I mean the smiling face and the voice (but not the accent)... the similarity almost makes me think they belong to a certain human appearance type.
Rufus is so talented, but handsome as hell too. I can understand why Isaac is trying to put the moves on him. But Rufus ain't having none of it. Isaac comes across as a dirty old man in this, but I love his dog! "Are you well enough? Are you warm enough?" What,- is Isaac Rufus' doctor??? This interview is hilarious only because Isaac is such a doofus and "in lust" with Rufus.
My question is what is that thing on Rufus's hip? It looks like it's either a walkie-talkie or an iPhone, but this was 2002 and the iPhone hadn't been invented yet and why on earth would a guy like Rufus have a walkie-talkie? That's what I would like to know!
Isaac Mizrahi is so awkward in this interview (and often was during his interviews for his show), so much so that he's unlikable. He's more endearing when he's just being himself - Unzipped is a good doc.
Can't believe he asked "Who gave you that name ?"
Who did he think gave him his name ?
What a great interview. I am so glad I found it. His voice is perfection.
"he just drifted off.."
"he just died!"
"no...he didn't die"
XD i love this interview!
I've been watching this for years and years and I still end up with my face covered in tears... Hilarious!
And I love this version of Grey Gardens ❤️
he is just ridiculously beautiful.....
when he talks you never imagine that singing voice.....so brilliant
You have to congratulate Rufus for keeping a straight face during this dreadful interview.
LOOL, truly.. was thinking the same thing. he has lots of strength.
I love how Rufus has his eyes closed for almost the whole performance, looking like he's being carried away by the music. And his voice is truly magnificent...
The ending is perfect. 'That was like a poem.' 'Oh.'
Yes, he was ridiculously beautiful, and still is very handsome.

Greatest. Interview. Ever.
Discovered this video years ago and so grateful because it introduced me to Rufus
same! and tomorrow i go to his concert for his "poses" tour :-)
Rufus is not only an amazing songwriter and OG nepo bb but also an improviser and comedian. Love this lmao
Can I just watch this over and over again until I die?
Isaac wants a piece of Rufus, it's obvious!
He looks about ready to take a bite out of him 🙂
absolutely adorable interview, a classic. how could you not be enamored by rufus?
I LOVE how engaged the interviewer is 😂. Like genuinely enthusiastically interested
Genius, the music.
So Young and Gorgeous Talented. Rufus❤️
Bless these two girl's hearts.
I LOVED this show! I remember watching this when it first aired.
Who wrote the questions? The dog?
Hey hey hey don't insult the dog. It's smart, unlike its owner. :)
Fab interview. Rufus clearly can tell Isaac wants to jump his bones, and he doesn't like the dog x
Rufus has been beautiful since he was a toddler. He is still, at 50 years old, remarkably handsome.
Wooooooow!!! His parents named him??? SHOCKER
this is the single gayest interview ever... love it!
This was a great show. Miss it.

Magnifique !!👌❤
Issac Mizrahi - give Rufus some space. Y'all up in his grill while he is singing

what a funny laugh

yeah pretty epic. rufus looks/sounds so unimpressed.
They're both so awkward in this interview.
Although..... sorry to be pedantic, but if it is his favourite movue surely he would know that the Beales are not sisters.....
4:20
Shall we saunter over to the piano?

Maybe his mother was visited by the Angel Gabriel?
FYI - Rufus was heavily cracked out at this time.

Katherine Dupoise probably a receiver for the mic on his shirt
maybe he was checking if he had a hangover or needed a new T shirt?
The interviewer is so annoying, he makes Rufus sound like a straight man (sorry if that offends anyone, I don't mean it too) x
@thinwhiteduke11
Isaac Mizrah that is...
Lol
A little bit stoned.

What a weird creep that interviewer was....awful
I love how the interviewer is displacing all his attraction by molesting the dog. I feel ya. I'd be doing the same.
gay?
