- Paul Stanley is firmly on board with Pride celebrations -- which might shock critics of his comments about gender identity and kids -- but he says all folks should be free to embrace who they are ... with one caveat.

Good for him, he gave all the right answers for an ambush interview.
Hello dear how are you doing
It’s beyond creepy the questions being asked
he's been doing this since 1973, he knows how to handle the paparazzi.
@@jennifers8843💯
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
I've never seen a more dignified and polite annoyed person in my life. He's like a high-school teacher dealing with the delinquents at detention. 😂😂😂
There is ONLY ONE other even more dignified .Brian May go see him when angry he apologizes for getting angry lol!
Being a good person no matter what your gender or beliefs. Good for him.
Hello dear how are you doing
@@PaulStanley-wi5udwhat's up
Except transgender and q**er
Right. Good for him. Hypocrites want to talk about being good but we said it was GOOD to have had Stonewall it was good to oppose homophobia it was good to allow same sex marriage. So why did he change the criteria?
@@queenbarbtherockstar6218 AaAwesome!!!have you ever had an opportunity to attend any of my concerts so far?. where are you from and how long have you being my fan?
He handled that ambush rather well.
Hello how are you doing
She was really trying to steer him into her narrative wasn't she? Glad he didn't fall for it.
Yup she sure was
Wish he fell for it
@@destinysphilosophyuploads Why?
Would like to clarify anything that you said? 😂 sounded pretty clear to me
And the interviewers voice and style of speaking is less than desirable 😂
That was pretty disrespectful from the journalist, she and TMZ should be ashamed of themselves ambushing Paul
She was extremely annoying. TMZ SUCKS
Do you think TMZ people CAN FEEL Shame !? lol I don't think so !
Papa Razzi are not a journalist…. They have no respect as journalistic view point would
Yes she is trying to get the woke answer out of him lmao
Ummm, one needs a conscience to recognize shame on themselves
Leave. Paul. Alone…greatest frontman of all time. He’s been an advocate for equal rights for years.
The best frontman of all time it's freddie mercury
Iggy pop or ozzy…. Kind of tied
@@Capitanmansonoh please. Freddy and queen are so over rated
Yeah cause he's still in the closet himself.
@@mooch514Kiss is even more overrated lil
Amazing how this dude is a rockstar, but one of the most soft spoken well mannered dudes out there
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
Man's got nothing to prove
Paul is a classy guy. This woman is extremely annoying and he still a nice guy .
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
@@Paulstanley-op3ij 🥰🥰🥰thanks for your music through the years & hard work. GOD keep blessing you & your love ones 👍🙏
Right Satan is classy. Deception. Lies. False good.
Yes she was annoying. Paul is one of the most genuinely kind people my family and I have the pleasure of knowing. His whole family is nice. Bless your heart Paul.🥰
That is not Paul Stanley @@cesarcoelho7227
He was to the point. The reporter made me nauseated. Poor guy hadn’t even had his morning coffee yet.
gender acceptance is getting annoying. live your life as you please but stop expecting other people to celebrate your life decisions.
Yea like Christmas is so irritating, every December the red and days of no revenue, art, these groups and their special interests🚫
Why is she so hell bent on chasing anyone down to goad them into commenting about pride? Mind your own business lady!
Ongggg
I applaude her advocacy. Need some light on LGBT after centuries of ignorance.
@@destinysphilosophyuploads That's not what ambushing people & grilling them does though. It makes bigots more resistant to change & causes innocent people to stumble over their words & say something that can be edited to look bad out of context.
That & it makes people anxious who are worried they'll say the wrong thing even if they actually don't have any negative thoughts on the matter. Especially since she's not educating. She's asking for an opinion on a situation he's not involved in that he could've just not known what to think about for all she knew.
For example, as a bi guy, I don't really get the whole "pride" concept because it sounds about as logical as being proud that you're left handed or right brain dominant but if a straight cis person says anything other than "yes" to her question about pride, people will lose their minds regardless of context or intent.
It's not a fair or productive position to put a stranger in without permission or warning.
All about the Benjamin's
@@destinysphilosophyuploadsLol😅 what most are overlooking is pride month is a huge sting! The pedos are being sorted. So get on out there, shake that junk. Where once you hid your disease, now WE see.
Oh, u shoulda stayed in the shadows!
DELICIOUS!
Well, before that there is one very important thing to say: Wow how well Paul is doing! 71 years old, the guy looks great. God blesses.
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
Where are you from and how long have you been my fan??
@@Paulstanley-op3ijwhere are you from and how long do you pretent to be Paul?
Is this a TMZ journalist? This interaction was fucking bizarre and awkward.
Myself would have asked for an autograph and photo then leave. Out of respect that he is a busy and compassionate human being. Surprised it was only her mobbing him. Like him or not..Paul Stanley name alone is legendary 👍
It is enough to see that Paul is nervous about the interview and does not feel comfortable. I appreciate and admire him for answering so patiently and politely.
What he said was pretty cut and dry initially... and was just common sense. He doesn't need to elaborate on it.
Translation: "Pride is absolutely ridiculous, we're good as long as you leave everyone else alone."
Paul is a het
Why would it shock anyone?? His comments weren't transphobic, what he said was comment sense and people chose to misinterpret it. He was never against trans people and has never been against gay people.
exactly, plus even trans people were commenting on his post agreeing with him
What an amazing man and an amazing life, he brought so much joy, he is so talented and driven, kind to a stranger here
This is what is wrong with the world right now. Asking a question about something that is in context of an interview is great. Ambushing someone with controversial topics hoping for a clickbait headline is pathetic.
Paul Stanley has THE GREATEST voice in music IMHO, I describe it as "penetrating". My girlfriend at the time and I had the privilege of seeing Paul perform in Phantom of the Opera in Toronto, 3rd row from front, amazing singer and performer! This reporter tried to corner him with gotcha questions but Paul answered perfectly and gracefully. What a well-spoken gentleman. What a great example for the younger generation also, I found out he and Gene never did drugs or alcohol especially when most younger people would have succumbed to those in their youth with all the success Kiss had. Good for you Paul. God bless.
Being ambushed by someone with a microphone asking me to speak on a popular issue that I may not necessarily be invested in but nonetheless am terrified of saying the wrong thing about it: my worst nightmare. Paul handled it well!
Also, remember when the calendar turned over to the month of June and the Pride stuff wasn't f'ing everywhere? Good times
I’m more worried that there are actually people terrified to say the wrong thing. This is the USA. This isn’t my the Soviet zunion where you will be thrown in a prison camp for saying the wrong thing.
@@rustiecage1874Ok Scrooge/ The Grinch
Una respuesta inteligente, sentirse orgulloso de ser una buena persona, por uno mismo, no por una etiqueta. Como decía mi tío: primero buenas personas, luego lo demás.
Wow Paul was calm, non reactive, graceful and in control.👍Love Paul.
Thank for the likes and your comments over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
Shame on the tmz people for ambushing him . Good thing he held his own despite this
He should have answered, "I like turtles."
Handled like a pro. Shame on the ambush interviewer.
He’s SO wonderful! ❤
Perfectly said Mr. Stanley
He always has the right anwers to every question
Fuckin' good on You, Paul!!!! 👍👍👍😁😁😁
That part at the end of this video!!!! 😊
Good job Paul!
Its like eddie trunk showing up and asking paul why he doesn’t go on his show🤣🤣🤣
I’ve always kind of wondered if Paul Stanley was gay?
Lol- he’s been in the game longer than most of these people have been alive. Good job, Paul!
I'm surprised he even spoke to her. Lol
Love Paul love kiss forever hope to me him one day
What an honorable career working for TMZ
He is soo right❤❤❤💗💗💗
Just think paul grow up in the times when being gay was just weird......he is old fashioned.... but still respects everyone as should we all ❤❤😊 not nice to attack him like that You just want him to say something he shouldn't be respectful of all, including Paul Stanley respect first . Rude 😒 is not the way to get a straight answer......
yeah everyone has right to be who they are BUT NOT spitting it in the face of people, just be and thats it,nobody care.
If I saw Paul I’d rather get a selfie or an album signed.. not ask a ridiculous question that has nothing to do with him or KISS
Stop harassing people in the hope they slip up under the pressure. That's being a bad person. Paul was ridiculed for 45 years for dressing femme and having a deformation, he was a trail blazer for fringe groups and outcasts. Do your homework. "Journalism" lol
Paul probably just got out of the dentist office. Tmz are like vultures it’s ridiculous 😂
I have never heard of anyone else who was hearing impaired like I was. Wow .back in that time. Kids was treated very differently back then. Awesome information
Good for Paul :)
You know he wanted to say after answering her 1st question; "would you please leave me alone now."
The ambusher tried to irritate him for an inflammatory response but he was too classy to succumb.
He's right, of course. It matters who you are, not what you identify as. It's the "person" inside who counts and that's what matters.
Such a genuine human being!!
Gullible much? 😂
Well he was wise enough not to step into that trap lol
cool statements by Paul S. here again!!!! :-)
He’s too smart to fall into the minefield during this ambush. Good job Paul!
Reporter- "Hey Paul, what do you think about pride month? "
Paul Thtanley from Kith- "Awright people now lithen. "
Anybody else noticed that he parked two or three parking lots away from the coffee
You imagine, the guy can’t even walk to his car without being harassed. Was she waiting for him to appear or did she just catch a lucky break? What made her think it was ok to walk up to him like that? Is there no personal space anymore? Maybe I should just walk up to her with a camera when ever I want and ask her what ever I want.
His smirk says exactly what he think
He handled that with pure class. Shut that little trick down and her annoying self.
You handled that perfectly star child.
Well Said Paul 👏
He should have thrown his coffee at that obnoxious troll.
Paul was very on point with his response.
It was a ambush paul responsed to it very clearly the women should have just left it at do you support
Thank for the likes and your comments over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
Good answers. Glad he didn't cave to stupid questions to box him in on saying something that can be misconstrued and twisted.
1 wrong answer and down goes his 40 years career xD
Not really. Rich famous people can say anything about anyone & they'll still be fine. Kevin Heart's still doing great because standards are a myth.
Paul’s the man! I just wish he would give every interview in his iconic front man voice!
Masterful response from Mr. Stanley
Wait why are you stopping him and just throwing questions out at him like that?
Well said. KISS Army Rules!
PRIDE RULES
He was like “Leave me the f alone!”
He gave a much more mature answer than me.
It’s amazing someone looking for a sound bite from him now. He just wants his damn coffee. Why would he have to be bothered by that.
Brilliantly put by Paul!
Good short interview.
I love how he dissed the trans people lmao. Be who you are. Not what you want to be.
Paul that was brilliant 👏
Ambush journalism
She's trying to bait him and doesn't get the answer she wants
LIVE TO WIN 💪🏼
Asking someone if their gonna celebrate something they are not
Be what you want but don't force it on other's!!
Shame on this interviewer. Paul handled the situation with 100% class
Amen 😊 love u paul always
How dare you 😂❤🎉
He said it best. Be a good person. Who can argue with that
Which the vast majority of the trans activists are not.
I feel for those who want to just quietly live their lives without these lunatics speaking on their behalf.
What is a "good" person to you?
"NO" Is all I heard.
They were trying to get back at him for saying changing your child's gender is wrong' which it is, once their 16 or old enough to know what they're doing whatever but little 407 years old? that's just wrong! Let them be children first!
These are really all stupid questions. Who cares!? Good for Paul he answered wonderfully and stays true to himself and to his convictions.
Trying to trip him did you 😄
Amen
Cool response...(and smooth.)
The one about trans-gender was interesting. I have always found it curious, (really, since way back.) that there has never been a problem for women who dress in the traditional man's business suite. I mean no-man ever made an issue of it, but my goodness, a couple cute guys wanna show their feminine side at Disney by wearing bright red hot-pants, etc. and Da Santis throws a fit !!! Is homophobia a 'tell'...(just wondering.) Anyway, seeing Mr. Stanely without "mime-white face," and big bright RED lips, it's pretty obvious that he goes for the ladies. And at the 'time' that KISS started performing, it was a pretty bold move to dress so 'Wild." It did get them noticed I'm sure, when bands were Rockin' out in droves. The reporter was so stupid and annoying, in this case tho, I would never have kept my cool like he did. (Pesky, ignorant people chasing you in a parking lot like that, would be very annoying to me.)
Oh Paul knows about this type of thing, especially in his FLAMING youth days in the 70s
Paul is a great singer. Some people out there say Paul has the best THROAT in the business..

@@themachine8277 ha like velvet 😂
Leave him alone he’s just trying to love his life
That poor man, all he did was buy a cup of coffee and he got cornered by someone trying to get a quote from him. I love how they try come off as his friend. 🙄
❤
Hello how you doing
Good answer paulie
Ambushed by TMZ
Leave Paul alone! He has the right to believe what ever he wants, I agree with Paul. He answered her questions perfectly. BTW pride month is what ever you want it to be.
Thanks for the likes and your comment over my post, thanks for being a fan of mine 🥰
@@Paulstanley-op3ij always and forever!
Were you from and how long have you been my fan??
@@Paulstanley-op3ij I’m from Louisiana and have been a die hard Paul Stanley fan since 1975. I had the pleasure of seeing KISS live the first time in 1979 in Baton Rouge. My dad dropped my friend and I off at Centralplex for the show and it was incredible!! You have been an inspiration to me my whole life.
That is great
How can anyone not love this gorgeous man?!
His looks are irrelevant. Why would you love someone you don't know?
GO BABY DRIVER!
