The amazing thing is she chose to sing in the original key and as a tribute as she felt it would honor Julie better. Of course, it's not quite as good; Gaga is a mezzo-soprano , and Julie was a true soprano. Gaga can't be expected to hit those high notes quite as well. But she did a pretty damn good job and sounded great.
The fact Julie Andrews is a fan of Lady Gaga is amazing. Also Lady Gaga was trembling when she hugged her you can see it in the video. Julie Andrews is a beloved icon and will always be Mary Poppins, Maria von Trapp and Queen Clarisse.
When my kids were little and my granddaughters were little, they all watched Mary Poppins so many times from our VHS copy, I am surprised it never wore out.
Josh I suggest you to also listen to Christina Aguilera´s "Back to Basics". There´re plenty of videos here on UA-cam, live ones are the best, so you can appreciate really great performances of her ; )
If they only wrote there own music they would have gone from a singer to an artist . Huge difference and write 5 number ones of there debut album shattering the record for probably decades if ever . And did I mention she wrote those hits ?
She seems like such a lovely woman. & she will be 80?! God damn I hope I look half as good as her. I'm glad Gaga proved everyone how vocally talented she is though. She is a once in a lifetime artist.
This is such a terrific interview. From as young as I can remember Dame Julie's grace, presence and immaculate voice touched me. She is wonderfully gracious about Lady Gaga's (excellent) performance. She is so relaxed and open here in this interview, all down to the interviewer making her smile and feel at ease and of course among friends who respect talent and good manners. Thank you again for this.
Thank you for the kind words, Joe! That means so much. I have three more segments from this interview on my UA-cam channel (in case you, or anyone else reading this, missed them).
Relaxed, open and even humbled and honored by what Lady Gaga did for her. And she's right - her voice was quite high when he was in the height of her career (before vocal node surgery took that away from her) and not easy to mimic.
***** Comments should be forbidden, nobody cares? Yet you took time to comment, be rude, type these uncalled for insults which contain a somewhat glaring contradiction. I am sorry you feel that typing something pleasant is so abhorrent. Or is it you feel I am insincere? But then I was taught basic manners: "if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all:"
Finally an interview from our country (USA) that didn't butcher the questions and was respectful of the actress/singer. I can't stand some of these people that ask the questions sometimes.
Sounds of music is my all time favorite movie. I was really afraid for the performance/tribute of Lady Gaga but when she began to sing... God! I was so impressed and touched. She definitely nailed it
She just feels like family. I grew up watching all her movies. Singing at the top of my lungs to all the songs. Feeling, as a child, as if we were singing together, just us two. She is a large part of my childhood, the most wonderful parts. Her voice is a familar sound. I'll never meet her im sure, but I would love to have tea with her and tell her how much she meant to me as a child and continues to brighten my life....
Dame Julie Andrews is not only a sweetheart, but she is also an extremely generous person, warm hearted and incredibly talented. Lady Gaga has all this qualities also and Dame Julie Andrews didn't fail to see them.
I have always loved this classy lady and she is so gracious when speaking about younger singers who admire her. Obviously she was impressed by Lady Gaga's tribute to her with her rendition of the medley from the Sound of Music despite what Steven Sondheim said.
Julie Andrews is a class act - she is who all actresses should strive to be. Kind, generous, humble, hardworking, talented, gracious. Lady Gaga did a phenomenal job and, while I was blown away by her vocals, it is the respectful way that she did this that impresses me the most.
unbelievable that she is 80! she looks SO phenomenal....ugh, every time I see her, or here her talk, she just absolutely warms my heart. she has to be one of the most generous and humble celebrities out there, and she really does deserve every amount of success that has rightfully come her way. she is the epitome of a class act, and I'm so glad that my Mother Monster was able to make Julie proud with her tribute(: words just can't even express how happy that made me!!
Gaga has superb talent and since I saw the documentary about her some time ago, I learned that apparently she is a beautiful soul, too. Julie just confirmed that. Among so many wannabe artists with an attitude, it's so refreshing to have some artist like this.
Unreal how this wonderful star seems so, just like any of us, not in that industry. What a wonderful and blessed opportunity to have been alive during her career. God bless her and may she live to, as she stated "see my grandchildren grow up and have babies". Her children have been able to experience her as she really is and how wonderful it would be for her to give that same unselfish love, especially in reading them such books as she and her daughter's have authored. God has blessed them all with a wonderful heritage to carry on. Thank you Julie Andrews. You have given us a warm part of yourself in our lives. If all of us could hold our own age as she has so beautifully! 80 Wow!
I get to see "my fair lady" that she has produced and directed in 2 weeks. So excited. I love Julie Andrews. Many a memories have been created watching her movies with my Grandmas.
Gaga is a superb artist, she is still uprising us all these years later, I thought her tribute was wonderful, honorable and true I believe she genuinely admires and respects Julie. Who couldn't
I honestly believe that Gaga is one of the most humble people in the world. When Ms. Julie Andrews learned that Gaga's gonna sing the original keys and told her that the song is so high. She did not responded "Well yeah, I can do an Eb5". Instead because she wants to give tribute to Ms. Julie Andrews.
Fantastic interview. I adore both Julie and Stefanie. I found it pleasantly amusing when the interwebs saw this tribute and collectively gasped, realizing that Lady Gaga has a voice. Her fans have always known it. ;)
Wait til they see A Star Is Born. New little monsters of all ages will be joining your ranks. She's incredible and so many of those not yet convinced will be truly won over; I know I was.
I thought I was listening to Dame Julie Andrews until I looked and saw The Lady Gaga :) It was so wonderful to hear those beautiful songs live again. Thank you Lady Gaga, thank you.
80? Gosh, she's aged so well. She still has that beautiful look about her, and those sparkling eyes. Gaga did an amazing performance, and this was a great interview :).
I've adored her since Mary Poppins, so much so that my hair was cut like Julie's in the 60's. I watch The Sound of Music every year and sing along. I have 2 female heroes that helped me through my childhood, Julie and Carol Burnett. ❤
Julie Andrews is a classy lady and she showed it that night, hugging Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga did an incredible job on that song tribute. I have heard some people say she didn't do as good as Julie. I say, the only opinion Lady Gaga need worry about is Julie Andrews who made the songs famous. And Julie LOVED it, so who cares what anyone else thinks. Great job, both ladies.
Talented, classy, terrific lady. Julie Andrews is one of those people that you can just look at them and tell that they are truly a wonderful person. Have you ever heard one bad thing about this woman? And her voice... just magical. ICON.
lady gaga really sing it well...you see how Julie Andrew said how she was feel so great lady gaga interpret her song delivered nicely with professionalism...
Dearest, Julie. You are such a kind an generous person. Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta was simply breath-taking in her performance. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for supporting Lady Gaga in her stupendous rendition. Thank you, and thank you, Gaga.
My Dearest Julie I seen you Tv doing Julie Andrews Shoe. I have one brother Jim ( know as Jimmy) and Sister Susan My Mom passaway in 2016 almost 90. Daddy passaway in 2018 We have one Uncle Living.

THE GARDEN STATE NJ is where I am from I live Ohio. We Love you and your familyThe End
I love this woman, so full of class when she speaks and how she looks and she's such a wonderful actress I never get tired watching her. She's a good role model in my point of view
I love Julie Andrews. Im so sorry she cant sing those songs the way she would like anymore. But she is so gracious about it and doesnt feel sorry for herself. She is such a wonderful person. Im not a Lady Gaga fan, but I thought she did a fantastic job.
Even the thought of this treasure leaving the planet scares the hell out of me.. I hope she will leave much longer. Betty White is 98 and still going, so i cross my fingers and everything I have for many more years with Julie
Julie Andrews considers Lady Gaga a friend. Lady Gaga has officially won at life.
Omg yes
yes
Agreed
Exactly and Tony Bennett as well! #winning
Now even liza minelli 🤩
If Julie Andrews likes the way you sing songs that have been associated with her for 50 years, then you are doing something right!
Especially when you took the time to LEARN the way she sang them.
She still looks that gorgeous at almost 80? GOALS!!!
Indeed
She acts like Queen Clarisse Renaldi even in real life!
She sooo does! She such a classy woman, I don't think they could've ever found anyone better for that part!
True
She has always been that way. Just saw a video of Julie Andrews performing for the King of England at 13!!!!!
Maybe she really is Clarisse. Think about it, have you ever seen them in the same room?
@@sassytbc7923 do you have a link
For all you Gaga haters. It’s not a competition! People always think the original is better. Gaga was just doing a tribute and did an excellent job.
Right?! Even Gaga called Julie “incomparable” after the medley.
For all the Lady Gaga detractors: so you know better than Julie Andrews? Julie Andrews thinks she did a wonderful job.
The amazing thing is she chose to sing in the original key and as a tribute as she felt it would honor Julie better. Of course, it's not quite as good; Gaga is a mezzo-soprano , and Julie was a true soprano. Gaga can't be expected to hit those high notes quite as well. But she did a pretty damn good job and sounded great.
I haven’t always been a Lady Gaga fan. But this was great. And I like how feminine she’s coming to be ;-)
I only recently came across Lady Gaga’s tribute and was blown away. She had me in tears. What a beautiful wonderful talented person she is.
When Julie Andrews tells you that you nailed it. You nailed it.
she will always be the queen of genovia to me
Princess Mia fan gathering :')
Agustina Santucho Yass. My jaw dropped when I realized she was in the sound of music. And Princess Diaries s one of my fav. movies :D
ahahaaa! same here!!
+Agustina Santucho Sorry, while I love The Princess Diaries, I was introdiced to Maria first... :)
Long live Queen Clarisse!
The fact Julie Andrews is a fan of Lady Gaga is amazing. Also Lady Gaga was trembling when she hugged her you can see it in the video. Julie Andrews is a beloved icon and will always be Mary Poppins, Maria von Trapp and Queen Clarisse.
When my kids were little and my granddaughters were little, they all watched Mary Poppins so many times from our VHS copy, I am surprised it never wore out.
Her and Gaga are the most talented female singers I've heard.
What about Whitney Houston she may be dead but she was a legend
Josh I suggest you to also listen to Christina Aguilera´s "Back to Basics". There´re plenty of videos here on UA-cam, live ones are the best, so you can appreciate really great performances of her ; )
vanina s Gaga can do Xtina
Josh The best singers EVER are Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey (, in their prime)
If they only wrote there own music they would have gone from a singer to an artist . Huge difference and write 5 number ones of there debut album shattering the record for probably decades if ever . And did I mention she wrote those hits ?
She seems like such a lovely woman. & she will be 80?! God damn I hope I look half as good as her. I'm glad Gaga proved everyone how vocally talented she is though. She is a once in a lifetime artist.
+Austin Lucas If you have money for face lifts then you sure will.
Lady Gaga is a serious person. You can tell by who she admires.
This is such a terrific interview. From as young as I can remember Dame Julie's grace, presence and immaculate voice touched me. She is wonderfully gracious about Lady Gaga's (excellent) performance. She is so relaxed and open here in this interview, all down to the interviewer making her smile and feel at ease and of course among friends who respect talent and good manners.

+Coparroch o You *do* know she was officially made a Dame by the Queen, right? It's her rightful title!
A great lady and a great talent. So gracious and charming.
She's 79 and looks like 45. God bless this wonderful lady.
+Henry Reinhart 80 now.
My mom is 48 and looks great and not old. Julie doesn't pass for 45 at all, more in the 60's.
Good for your mom. :)
Finally an interview from our country (USA) that didn't butcher the questions and was respectful of the actress/singer. I can't stand some of these people that ask the questions sometimes.
Thanks, Foxy! I appreciate that.
Julie is a class act!
Honestly if you lean back and squint she looks about 45.
***** lmao, so true
***** Perhaps after a 12 pack she looks about 45.
She didn't look 45. But she could easily have passed for early 60s when she was about to turn 80.Good on her!
without squinting, id giver her 50
and she looks herself
Julie Andrews is so humble and so loving of the arts and I think we all love her for it!!!!
Sounds of music is my all time favorite movie. I was really afraid for the performance/tribute of Lady Gaga but when she began to sing... God! I was so impressed and touched. She definitely nailed it
no way she is 80.
One of the most brilliant actresses in all of history.
Every other pop star can take several seats.
Jason Rodriguez lol!!!
The Sorcerer's/Philosophers Stone was not truly destroyed people. Julie Andrews is currently using it.
lol Nice.
I'd believe it
These are a few of my favorite things.
just seeing Julie Andrews just makes me calm.
She just feels like family. I grew up watching all her movies. Singing at the top of my lungs to all the songs. Feeling, as a child, as if we were singing together, just us two. She is a large part of my childhood, the most wonderful parts.
Her voice is a familar sound. I'll never meet her im sure, but I would love to have tea with her and tell her how much she meant to me as a child and continues to brighten my life....
Thank you Ms. Julie for recognizing our Queen Monster!

can this lady be immortal..i mean shes like perf.
This is literally the definition of TIMELESS BEAUTY. She hasn't aged a bit since 1965.
Mary Poppins and Maria Von Trapp forever will have my heart, legendary roles for a legendary artist, incomparable, unique!
I’m a bigger fan of MP than I am of The Sound of Music
Julie Andrews is a class act - she is who all actresses should strive to be. Kind, generous, humble, hardworking, talented, gracious. Lady Gaga did a phenomenal job and, while I was blown away by her vocals, it is the respectful way that she did this that impresses me the most.

I want her around for another 50 years!
+xenafan234 Then she would be 120.
+Ihdc1 130 actually
She could but im afraid you might not be here.
Aww🤗
Gaga has superb talent and since I saw the documentary about her some time ago, I learned that apparently she is a beautiful soul, too. Julie just confirmed that. Among so many wannabe artists with an attitude, it's so refreshing to have some artist like this.
At least once a year I come back to this video and lady gaga’s performance
I love her so much
80???? Holy shit.
Bullshit 😧. She is?
Adala S yes 80 lol unreal isn't it she still looks amazing.
Dame Julie Andrews is the definition of class.
Julie Andrews is one the most warm, genuine people I have ever seen. She seems like the kind of person you would love to be around.
Unreal how this wonderful star seems so, just like any of us, not in that industry. What a wonderful and blessed opportunity to have been alive during her career.

Dame Julie, you are my first and favorite musical, ever!

she is legit a world treasure that must be kept at all costs. Plus she doesn’t age so she’s basically immortal.
beautiful singer and beautiful movie
Gaga is a superb artist, she is still uprising us all these years later, I thought her tribute was wonderful, honorable and true I believe she genuinely admires and respects Julie. Who couldn't
Julie Andrews is just Beautiful..love her warmth towards Lady Gaga..
Lady Gaga knows Music giving respect and honor to Julie Andrews. Just by humbly introducing Ms Andrews.
julie was one of my primary influences growing up.
The most gracious, elegant, classy woman in this galaxy.

She is a truly a graceful woman even the question is inappropriate...she manage to laugh it out....
+Jasson Camilo Her age is public knowledge. I didn't ask how old she is. It's not inappropriate to mention it in context of a relevant question.
David Onda ahhhh.....ok....sorry.✌️
+H_H This coming from the guy who spammed the comments with remarks about plastic surgery? Yeah, let's talk about "class."
He didn't reply because he knew you just exposed him. lol
Dame Julie Andrews I Just Love Love Love her

That is the most stellar 79 I've ever seen. Ever.
She's so beautiful
Always classy, always a lady. She can do no wrong in my eyes. She is one of those actresses you wished was immortal.
Is there a second in her life where she isn't so classy and elegant? Gosh she is timeless!
She's 81 now and she still looks fabulous! ^^
Even the thought of this treasure leaving the planet scares the hell out of me.. I hope she will leave much longer. Betty White is 98 and still going, so i cross my fingers and everything I have for many more years with Julie
Dame Julie Andrews is like the Queen of life and Gaga made an excelent tribute.
a total class act from start to finish
