    I love this. K.D comes across as a fantastic person. She just sits there, no ego, no trying to match wits, no taking offence, totally getting the humour and understanding the context of the situation. What you have is a person utterly at ease and thoroughly enjoying themselves. It's really joyous to watch.

    What a brilliant and hilarious interview!
    His build-up to the "Canadian" joke is a masterclass in misdirection and comic timing. KD Lang is in tears with genuine laughter. So rare to see spontaneous laughter from a celebrity nowadays.

    R.I.P. Barry Humphries (Dame Edna). We thank you for all the laughs you provided with your incredible wit, facial expressions and hilarious costumes. You were born to bring joy and side splitting laughter to us all. Thank goodness for UA-cam we can continue to laugh and even cry from laughing through all the clips available to us. I suspect that many people will take advantage of this and maybe even have Dame Edna parties while viewing these HILARIOUS clips for years to come. If you don't laugh at theses clips you probably should see a doctor and have your funny bone checked out for they are guaranteed to make you laugh.

      I’m a trans guy, and have always looked up to her. I often wonder how she feels about gender, as she never complains at being called she, even though everything about her says she would have been perfectly happy being born a guy. But she’s never said, so I suppose we can’t presume either way. It’s very difficult transitioning, there’s sexual function issues, and physical changes. K.D’s voice is the most beautiful one on planet Earth, and a tremendous gift. I’ve been on the T for two months and my voice is changing, and whilst that to me is a gift, and might enable me to join a singing group without humiliation, for K.D. having anything risk her voice is maybe unthinkable.

    • @freedombug11
      @freedombug11 Рік тому +3

      @@andrewhaywood3853 I think it's certainly true that she wouldn't want to risk her voice. I don't know much about her, but there have been "butch" lesbians since forever and it's just fundamentally not the same thing as needing to be a guy. It's almost like people are forgetting that butch lesbians are a thing. Of course we don't know her private thoughts on it, but I think it's always better to just take people exactly as they seem to be unless they tell you otherwise. It's okay to be a butch lesbian that gets mistaken for a man. Being a trans guy is fine too, but since many more people are gay than truly trans, there are more butch lesbians in the world than there are trans guys. In some ways society seems to be suddenly losing its tolerance for homosexuality and for cross-dressing unless it is also tied up with gender identity. Transitioning with hormones (as you know) is pretty hard on the body and risky health-wise and I don't want society to confuse young gay and/or gender non-conforming kids into thinking that all of them are trans (and that if trans, that necessarily means they need medicalization). I hope none of that came across the wrong way.

      @eroselan - You really sum up kd's attributes to a "T." I saw her for the first time at the World's Fair '86) in Vancouver and I can tell you that since then, she has evolved her raw, innate talent into a well honed musical instrument that IMO puts her into a class all of her very own. Were that enough, she has the most melodious speaking voice, sports a great sense of humour, and is just an overall sweetheart.

    Kd has earned our respect and admiration. Hereshe shows her humble personality and truth. Her comedic timing with Edna is priceless, and she knows how to laugh at herself. I am so proud of her. If you get the chance watch her performance of Halleluia at the Vancouver winter Olympics ceremony. He version is absolutely the best, better than Leonard’s.

    If anyone is interested: Barry wrote two very good books. One was called Women in the Background, the other was a memoir of growing up in Melbourne. The title I've forgotten, but he really could write. He was a very, very talented man and will be missed.
