I recall meeting Liberace in 1985. He had recently purchased two adjoining condos at the beach in Malibu -- perched just above the crashing waves. I was working for a furniture store in L.A. and we delivered a bunch of furniture for his "guest condo" next door to his personal condo unit. He invited me into his place to talk about the delivery and to sign the receipt. Unlike the opulent decor of his Hollywood Hills home, his Malibu condos were contemporary and subdued. He introduced me to his dogs and that's when I learned what a "Shar-Pei" is. He explained the history of the Shar-Pei breed, that they were bred as guard dogs for royalty in China. He was just as nice in person as he appears in this video!
Liberace was the man who penned the phrase, "I'm laughing all the way to the bank" which was his response to critics. The world will never see another showman and such talent like him. Today he might well have come out of the closet but his sexuality was never in question by his legions of fans who, like myself, considered it was is own private affair. God bless Liberace
Even if everyone knew, that his private life stayed so private is actually a relief compared to today's stars whose whole lives have to be on display, who have to have an opinion on everything including politics, who have to parade their "charitable" works about in a desperate attempt to stay relevant (perhaps it says something about their talent?). UA-cam has been suggesting Liberace videos, and I can't help but feel the world needs more people who are outgoing, humble, eager to please but also people who don't feel the need to make their private lives a spectacle for the whole world.
When I lived in Las Vegas in 1974, I worked in a custom drapery shop. One of the things I worked on was draperies for Liberace that were identical to the wallpaper so they had to be precisely made. I still have a piece of the fabric!
@TheDodicat The three comments above yours is why. Honestly, I don't remember posting it before, but if I did - give me a break. I am old and my life hasn't been all that exciting.
People can make fun of Liberace for being gay all they want, but I gotta say this was one friendly, charming character. I've never seen someone so happy and outgoing. It just makes you smile. RIP buddy.
Any time I’m depressed , I look up Liberace ... life is not so bad seeing that smile and pc humor . I legit got a degree in textile preservation because I was so impressed with Lee and Elvis’ costumes
I love Liberace. I love that swimming pool. 🎱 His music is really good. I've been listening all day. I listened to Slaughter on 10th Avenue and Feelings.💚
He was so sweet,he really loved his fans so much better than anyone we have today. He was so attractive here and had a great personality. He treated his staff very,very well too seen many interviews with them as well and said he was so kind and generous to them all
Watched documentary about him, he had S. E. X. Every day with a different man sometimes 2....it puts me off, by the pool, under the table anywhere, he liked disadvanted young boys...🤢🤮
You can tell he knows his own house inside out, all the details, where he got each piece, the provenance & work involved in each renovation--his aesthetic was over the top but he presents it with just a very humble pride & love for home. He actually reminds me a lot of Dolly Parton--over the top & down to earth at the same time, twinkling eyes & a self-deprecating sense of humour, caring & concerned for others, ambitious & driven to achieve, & over all of it this incredible talent & desire to entertain.
he seemed like a really nice happy ideal friend and gentleman. That italian tile oh that was lovely! "it turned out to be a room rather than a porch". and a fancy bar and it was more than even a room. Looks like he loved interior decorating!
What a thoroughly nice man he was . Who cared about his sexuality . He was kind and humble and a great talent to say the least. My family and I would watch his show on television where he played the piano and delivered some of the best entertainment anyone could ask for . I remember my parents thought he was the greatest pianist they ever heard and saw . My folks adored Liberace . Liberace was also a very good actor . Rest in peace Liberace you are sorely missed .
leokimvideo I can certainly agree with you on that, old Hollywood would be in the palm of his hands. On the other side, if anyone shares my taste or lack of it, the cluttered gaudy look would make me crazy.
Bobby Paluga I'm 53 now and new from my childhood that Liberace was Gay. But I always admired him for various reasons. 1) He never tried to force his choice of lifestyle on anyone. 2) To call him " Mr. Showmanship " is the Understatement of the Century. 3) His ability to make everyone feel at ease and give us a look at how he enjoyed collecting things and How he treated and shared his good fortune with his friends truly made him an American Original.
Jason Wayne Whoa Nellie, Lifestyle Choice??? That’s a slap in the puss to a person you seem to admire, he certainly didn’t choose to be a gay man, he fought any talk of his homosexuality even winning a suit against a London newspaper. He played it straight with a tux the candelabra and a grand piano for some time, then he stopped caring, society was changing and he more or less came out, costumes, a series of much younger “lovers”, and his flourishes. He was truly “born that way” and in reality nobody cares.
Bobby Paluga Ohhhhhhh.. No.. Nobody is born a Homosexual. Your Gender and race yes . People love to use that excuse because God Calls Homosexuality an Abomination so they act as if God made them that way so they don't have to feel guilty and are not responsible for their actions . Please try that sad crap for the weak minded. No Doctor, Not 1 credible Doctor has ever and I mean EVER found any cause and effect gene or anything in the Human DNA that gives any credence to someone being. " Born That Way "
"And this is the Master Bath.... These are the twin sinks.... they usually call them 'his & hers' but since I'm a bachelor... I use them both myself." Good to know Lib! :D Its so cute that he tells us that :D
Gorgeous, opulent He paid his bills and hired trades and craftmen to create his wonderful home. His was an excellent investor and philanthropist. He kept his private life private. Liberace was kind and good and generous. An artist with soul and wit. The first campy performer i remember. Seems he introduced the glitter and bling to the general public. RIP darling. I am sorry you suffered.
I know that ones sexuality doesn't always determine how one keeps house, but you prolly faced an ass-whooping if you didn't use a coaster in his place.
Great footage of his home. Thank You so very much. I live just 5 minutes away from his Las Vegas mansion on Shirley Street. He truly was out of this world and is still loved even as of today by many of his loyal fans.
I was impressed by the things he knew & talked about, he seemed to be a very smart man & I enjoyed the story about how things came to be, also, the candle holders made of blue glass and he knew what kind of Crystal hung on them and the castle where he bought them... Interesting man, I love learning things, a nice tour but cut short 💙
Now this is what a mansion is supposed to look like. The interior decorating is impeccable...Liberace had great style and taste. Rest In Peace and Rest In Power, Dear Liberace. 🍹 🎉
Without doubt Liberace was a virtuoso. We were blessed to be within his company. Allowing us to view his home whilst alive, and guided in person by himself, was never something he needed to, or had to do, but for those of us intrigued, it was incredibly generous of him. His homes (Las Vegas, Palm Springs, and here in the Hollywood Hills, had mirrors, more than perhaps we would have hung, l hope he genuinely enjoyed his reflection, as he would of been able to catch himself often in them. It would be heartfelt with sadness, if the mirrors re-enforced any negative fears or doubts in his appearance he may have harboured. To me he appeared to be a gentle soul, generous in his thoughts, and wanting to pass through this life.....Remembered. In that, he succeeded.
I think he was fabulous. I mean he oozed talent, was very generous and I don't think a bad word was ever said about him. I just think he was always positive, even when he became ill.
He lived well, and he deserved to, Liberace is a brilliant musician, and you can see his influence in Elton John and Freddie Mercury, and even Elvis! Who wore extravagant clothing on stage in the late 60’s and early 70’s. Liberace wasn’t interested in fads and trends, you can’t ignore a genius like that.
Agree they were all in ppl performers -something Lee was over the top but if anybody who surrounded themselves with all this museum richness nobody could appreciate it more or did appreciate it more than Liberace he's like giving a museum tour of his house but he's not at all arrogant or narcissistic about it. Such a talented musician pianist and genuine good-hearted people person ....
For a poor Polish man who played the piano and put on a show for all of America - he did GREAT ! I've been in this sort of opulence. .. Now I realize that when I die , the only arms that may hold me are my own . Then I shall go Home to my Beloved husband, Paul , my horses and our dogs , cats , etc ... No the less , I do love Liberace .
Lee was such a talent, besides his music he had a wonderful personality....went to,his museum in Las Vegas some years ago, they had costumes he wore and som of his cars, a rhinestone piano, an English taxi...he. Would go to the airport in Vegas and just pick people up and drive them home when he was lonely, he had millions of fans of all ages, even my own grandchildren would watch cds of his acts....in one he would fly in and onto the stage, my grandchildren would love to make believe they were playing the piano, and make believe they were playing on the back of my car seat all the way to church on Sunday mornings, I remember his television show back when I was young, my mom loved him, all 6 of us sitting in our living room.
Fabulous home. Very calm and serene somehow. Seems relaxing and so much to look at. What a dear kind man. Such a very interesting little doc. Thanks for posting.
I LOVE that house! I love everything about it! I could live there anytime, that decor is so beautiful and fabulous I can't stand it. I only wish I could wake up every morning and be immersed in all that splendor!
Fascinating! Thanks for sharing. It would have been a fascinating reality show to have big and little Edie from "Grey Gardens" move in with him just to see the interactions. Very much a character.
That would have been AWESOME!!!!!! imagine that as a TV reality show! Would have been a top-rated show for years! Your comment rates 1000 thumbs up, if that were possible
Liberace was a class act. Back in the day, people in show business were multi-talented, they were classy people, hardly a cuss word out of their mouth, classic songs from classic singers. The talk shows were the best we have ever had. Never political like the crap that’s on now. They all wore dress clothes. They took pride in how they looked. Even country singers dressed up, and if they wore a cowboy hat, it wasn’t just a cowboy hat. These days, just look at the differences......people now wear jeans, sometimes torn jeans, torn t-shirt, or a t-shirt under a flannel shirt, gym shoes, ball cap on their head turned backwards, pants belted below their crotch. The ONLY time we now see class acts, is the few times we see singers of yesteryear perform. Liberace was in a class by himself.
Agree some comments are saying they have an empty feeling he's materialistic I don't get any of that if anybody appreciates these museum pieces Lee does and he's like a curator here He's not being arrogant rich narcissistic he's appreciative and genuine I don't get the hate at all here He was a fantastic pianist and people person.
Never knew much about Liberace, but from I can see now, you're a charming ass dude!!!! Absolutely brilliant!!! Good on you for leaving your fortune to the up & coming young artist of the world, that's some boss ass shit!
Now this is something I hadn't seen before. Thank you greatly for uploading. Wonder if I can convince my wife to redo the master bedroom in a similar style? :D
Love his presentation of the house. Lol on the helicopter statement about not having one handy to take a pic of the front of the house. Always enjoyed watching him on shows. Remember him from my childhood memories from the 70s, especially his appearance on the Muppet Show. Great entertainer and an all around icon. First time watching this video and have to say he was a tremendous presenter. He does an excellent job at presenting anything actually. Thanks for posting this. Paws up for the video.
I know he sued 3 different people/companies for accusing him of being gay (and he won all of them). It's like Wesley Snipes suing people for saying he's black... And winning
I recall meeting Liberace in 1985. He had recently purchased two adjoining condos at the beach in Malibu -- perched just above the crashing waves. I was working for a furniture store in L.A. and we delivered a bunch of furniture for his "guest condo" next door to his personal condo unit. He invited me into his place to talk about the delivery and to sign the receipt. Unlike the opulent decor of his Hollywood Hills home, his Malibu condos were contemporary and subdued. He introduced me to his dogs and that's when I learned what a "Shar-Pei" is. He explained the history of the Shar-Pei breed, that they were bred as guard dogs for royalty in China. He was just as nice in person as he appears in this video!

You're a good man, Barry.
Crying, it’s crying all the way to the bank.
Sadly, no one will ever get that rich by being an instrumental musician, especially a classical musician, ever again.
Even if everyone knew, that his private life stayed so private is actually a relief compared to today's stars whose whole lives have to be on display, who have to have an opinion on everything including politics, who have to parade their "charitable" works about in a desperate attempt to stay relevant (perhaps it says something about their talent?).
UA-cam has been suggesting Liberace videos, and I can't help but feel the world needs more people who are outgoing, humble, eager to please but also people who don't feel the need to make their private lives a spectacle for the whole world.
When I lived in Las Vegas in 1974, I worked in a custom drapery shop. One of the things I worked on was draperies for Liberace that were identical to the wallpaper so they had to be precisely made. I still have a piece of the fabric!

With that much money you would have to actually try really hard to be an unhappy asshole. I'm sure if he were poor then he wouldn't be near as happy

That would have been AWESOME!!!!!! imagine that as a TV reality show! Would have been a top-rated show for years! Your comment rates 1000 thumbs up, if that were possible
Liberace was a class act. Back in the day, people in show business were multi-talented, they were classy people, hardly a cuss word out of their mouth, classic songs from classic singers. The talk shows were the best we have ever had. Never political like the crap that’s on now. They all wore dress clothes. They took pride in how they looked. Even country singers dressed up, and if they wore a cowboy hat, it wasn’t just a cowboy hat. These days, just look at the differences......people now wear jeans, sometimes torn jeans, torn t-shirt, or a t-shirt under a flannel shirt, gym shoes, ball cap on their head turned backwards, pants belted below their crotch. The ONLY time we now see class acts, is the few times we see singers of yesteryear perform. Liberace was in a class by himself.
Where has all of this gone? The antiques in his houses, museum, his cars, his jewelry?
Imca vdB auctions. Private collectors.
very similar to my flat in barnsley
😂😂😂😂
That's a LIE
yours is south-facing
Obviously!
Interesting this house still exists but they turned the outside pool area into a backyard, while the pool was moved to the front of the house.
"Too much of a good thing is WONDERFUL" took its toll on Liberace.
Love liberace. He just seems like the coolest person. I would've LOVED to just sit and shoot the breeze with him.
As a human being when we can't find real love but you can afford to buy everything oh well.
he almost sounds like the old aunt/grandma who smoked too much.
Spill Burg yup.. he was a chain smoker
Spill Burg UA-cam comments are the best...,lol
I was going to say I like his voice. It has a musicality to it.
Spill Burg 🤓🤓
Spill Burg He LOOKS like an old grandma.
he seems like he really appreciates everything he has
Agree some comments are saying they have an empty feeling he's materialistic I don't get any of that if anybody appreciates these museum pieces Lee does and he's like a curator here He's not being arrogant rich narcissistic he's appreciative and genuine I don't get the hate at all here
He was a fantastic pianist and people person.
Watching 2018. He was a magnificent pianist. World Class.
He's what you call an entertainer. Talented and well loved as well as generous. There was no one like him. He deserved every penny he ever earned
He does have good taste
He surely had an exceptional eye for shapes, colours and space! Expensive and busy but very beautiful!
Never knew much about Liberace, but from I can see now, you're a charming ass dude!!!! Absolutely brilliant!!! Good on you for leaving your fortune to the up & coming young artist of the world, that's some boss ass shit!
Rest in peace, great, unique entertainer. Love him
Now this is something I hadn't seen before. Thank you greatly for uploading. Wonder if I can convince my wife to redo the master bedroom in a similar style? :D
OMG I love his Bedroom too! :D
MY MOM LOVED LIBERACE, I GREW UP LISTENING TO HIS MUSIC, THEN I GREW TO LOVE HIM.
a totally pampered happiest wealthy little queen that ever lived LOL , r.i.p. Libby
Very gently...nice person
Sipi Prank ! I love him! super fancy! sweet and gave presents to millions of different people in December

I LOVE all of his decor.
Jenni Niccum beautiful mansion but not my taste in decor😂
Grossssss tacky gawdy stuff
Jenni Niccum 😂😂😂😂
*The love and appreciation of his homes were evident.*
Love his presentation of the house. Lol on the helicopter statement about not having one handy to take a pic of the front of the house. Always enjoyed watching him on shows. Remember him from my childhood memories from the 70s, especially his appearance on the Muppet Show. Great entertainer and an all around icon. First time watching this video and have to say he was a tremendous presenter. He does an excellent job at presenting anything actually. Thanks for posting this. Paws up for the video.
I know he sued 3 different people/companies for accusing him of being gay (and he won all of them). It's like Wesley Snipes suing people for saying he's black... And winning
