Jessie was literally one of my favorite things about Pokemon!! I remember watching this video back in the day, hoping I would get to meet her someday. And now I’m still processing the fact that she’s no longer with us. RIP 🕊️ 💜
Dam, I wish Rachael, Veronica, and Eric were my mentors for voice acting. They all seem so wonderful to work with and would give you the right advice on how to genuinely get into the business.
Robert Alexander Yeah, right! But tbh, I wish Veronica was my VO mentor/coach because, as an aspiring VA myself, she knows how the voice acting business really is and seems to have vast knowledge of how to get into the business as well. Plus, she even went to grad school for acting, now that's experience that I'm impressed by!
UGHHHHH! I get so mad when they replaced all the original voice actors! Now everything is crap! What's going to happen when they pass away? They won't have time to voice act anymore! UGHHHHUHOUGPRTHOURGHSBSPIRBAGRIOUGHATEUG we need them forever!
I had the biggest crush on Misty haha I just found out Jesse is the same as Misty, when I heard Misty complain and she sounded like Jesse I had to search
I will say this about the new voice actor of Jessie, Michelle Knotz: Michelle gave the old voice of Jessie justice because Michelle's impersonation of Jessie is really DARN close to Rachael's voice acting. I say this for one simple reason; the new voices for everyone else in the Pokemon series resemble nothing of the original voice acting.
To those who met her I envy you a lot. I remember it took me a while to start reacting to her death it was like a slow sink for me, I really wanted her to come back to be Misty despite not having Veronica anymore as Ash.
Rachael Lillis was also on Teletubbies. She was the original PBS funding announcer for Teletubbies, as well as a substitute for Toni Barry as the Tubby Bye-Bye Voice Trumpet in the US version of Making Christmas Cards. Toni Barry’s voice was heard in all other US episodes. I’m not sure which other segments featured her voice on the Voice Trumpets.
SO YOUR TELLING ME I HAVE BEEN LISTENING TO THE SAME PERSON DO BOTH JESSIE AND MISTY AND FRICKEN JIGGLYPUFF WTH I know that like pikachu in indigo league like has like 6 different people play it and that goes for almost all the characters BUT SHE PLAYED MISTY JESSIE AND JIGGLYPUFF OMGGGGGG
I miss her as Jessie and misty biggest part of my childhood but funny thing I noticed is that Michelle knotz is trying to sound like Rachael am I the only one that realized that
TPCi being jerk not bringing almost all 4Kids Pokémon voice actors back, some did like Rachel Lillis did came back during TPCi season, but she didn’t voiced Misty and Jessie just voice JigglyPuff I think, I heard one comment say Rachael hated Misty as the character.
I love Rachel Lillis' voice as Jesse of team Rocket. I dreamed about dating her and having her use the Jesse voice the whole time I was with her, that would be so awesome. I can imagine myself falling in love with her. :)
I was so mad to see Jesse's voice change in the Diamond Pearl Series, they just sound wack , no disrespect to the current actors, but she completed Jesse (and Misty) , without her they sound like total strangers.
Ridiculous they deleted the Misty character from the anime and even more that they replaced Lillis' voice with a sound-alike, as they also did with Veronica Taylor and Eric Stuart.
I love her! The new voice actors suck! I actually can't watch it anymore. Ash's voice has been completely destroyed and jessie sounds like a try hard now :( and James..... James sounds like a demented fish. :(
In memory of Rachael Lillis, We'll miss you
Rest in peace to her :(
@@Bobatea17838 what? She DIED?? When!!!?
@@elijahbrown3551 yup. :(
@@elijahbrown3551 August 10th, 2024, now it seems both August 10 and 11 will be days of mourning for me. One for Rachael and one for Robin.
🪦 Rachel Lillis I’ll always remember your voice of Misty and Jessie.
Rest in peace Rachel Lillis. Always be remembered.
Rest in peace Rachel you done nothing but made thousands millions of children and young adults around the world smile from voice and Misty in Pokemon
rest in peace, you made my childhood memorable
Wonderful voice acting..I didn't even realise she played both Jessie and Misty..great talent.
LionheartNh and jigglypuff
SHE PLAYS MISTY??!!!!! ahhhhhh!
She also voices my favorite Pokemon: Jigglypuff
Rest in Peace Rachael ❤ You we’re the very best, like no one ever was 😢
I was so shocked when she talked about how self conscious she felt when she was asked to sing on the show.. She's got a great singing voice!
rip rachel lillis, such a great voice actor🙏💔🕊
Rest in peace, Queen ❤
Just found out she has cancer...I'm absolutely shocked because she's so young
She died last week
@@avaranabraham8507that’s what I find out today.
@@avaranabraham8507 Two days ago actually :(
@@type.silverPlease don’t bring politics into this. Cancer can happen at any age. It largely depends on genetics
@@MidnightRose. Americans are so weird, they somehow made vaccines political.
Thank you for uploading this interview with Rachael Lillis. Found out about her sad passing, and I appreciate hearing her thoughts. RIP to her

Jessie was literally one of my favorite things about Pokemon!! I remember watching this video back in the day, hoping I would get to meet her someday. And now I’m still processing the fact that she’s no longer with us. RIP 🕊️ 💜
Yeah, I feel your pain. I wanted to meet her too.
RIP original Misty 🕊️
Great memories from my childhood, played Jessie and Misty so well!! RIP

She did the best misty voice the new misty sound to girly which is not misty personality.
Rest in Peace Rachael Lillis 😢
I had the biggest crush on Misty haha
I just found out Jesse is the same as Misty, when I heard Misty complain and she sounded like Jesse I had to search

Rest in peace
She seems to just have such a pleasant tone and voice. Kinda soothing.
Wow how I wish she and james would do a cosplay of Team Rocket and make a video of the intro. I really fell inlove in jessies voice sinces day 1.
+Arvin G I'd honestly want to hear Rachael and Eric recite the motto (cosplayed or not) alongside someone who could do a good Meowth voice.
I hear Misty and Utena!
To those who met her I envy you a lot.
I remember it took me a while to start reacting to her death it was like a slow sink for me, I really wanted her to come back to be Misty despite not having Veronica anymore as Ash.
😢
I recall hearing Jessie sing on one pokemon episode. Lillis blew me away with that voice.
l like the little tune at the end, it actually quite good. :-)
"I mean Eric. I mean James" I'm dying XD
>has a mic
>doesn't have her talk into it
>wat
lol ikr!
mrzombiesbo yea he's so dumb..maybe he dunno how to use it correctly..
+mrzombiesbo The mic is sensitive enough to pick up both voices, children
he moves her away from the mic so she can breathe.

Chocolate rain!
She is very talented I love her work. It was also great she got to return briefly in season 11as Maylene, sunflora, and shinx.

As I remember, she voiced *Tomoe Ame* from TMNT. :)
She seems sweet

I want her to return on pokemon for my little cousin i also likes UTena sadly it ended... Misty should return for a visit ,_

bigguy130 Yeah, Rachel is so hot and sexy especially when she talks in Jessie's voice!
Is Rachael Lillis single?
7:05
Photo of Jessie
God protect her, please get better soon 🙏🏻
She died on August 10
Oh god… 😔😔😔
I’m sorry 😞
I am so happy to know she voiced in Bakugan just recently :D
Rachel Lillis' singing voice is the most beautiful in the poke universe. do more please for pokemon.
I can hear both Misty and Jessie in her voice 😁😁
She also does the voice of Maylene
Rip
What has Rachael Lillis been doing as of right now? I haven't heard any new roles from for a long while now.
Every Smash Bros they bring her in (and a ton of other voice actors for their respective characters) to voice Jigglypuff.
utena!!!!!! :')
does she ever say something in a misty voice????????
discovering she voices so many in characters in pokemon including Pikachu, brought me. Rachael hope now u can settle for a single easier job.
She doesn't do Pikachu. Ikue Ōtani does Pikachu
The 3 Newbs
b4 i replied i double checked - a lesson to u, we're both right
Awesome interview! :D
BTW, that sunset in the background of the opening/ending shots is gorgeous! :)
I agree.
She did come back to voice as Maylene in TPCi
cutest voice
That's what she said ;D
Jessie and Ursula all tha way
I want misty back. I want the old jessie and james back
I Love Her Hair
Dam her regular voice sounds almost like misty
I knew she voiced jessie, but not misty! Wow! They sound so different!
yes i do
Please bring Misty back D:
Misty will always be sexy!
That came out wrong...
I would love to meet her just to have a nice conversation...and maybe ask for her famous misty line. "I'M A WATER POKEMON MASTER!" =D
I didn't realise she voiced Misty and Jessie!
I miss her as Jesse so much, Michele Knotz has nothing on her!
Wow. She sounds so different than Marta and Misty.
Jigglypuff isn't a smaller character.
yes it was, it was like in one episode
+katerina tf no
+katerina have you even watched Pokemon? Smh gtfo
R.I.P
same here my friend
When I met Rachael Lillis at NYCC 2010, I asked her to do Misty's voice and she wouldn't do the voice, for some reason. She didn't say why. o.o
Maybe she was sick? Or maybe she just didn't feel like it?
It could be she not in good mood to the new actor of Michelle Knotz for taking her role as Jessie and Misty or mostly she could be sick eventually.
I was so mad to see Jesse's voice change in the Diamond Pearl Series, they just sound wack , no disrespect to the current actors, but she completed Jesse (and Misty) , without her they sound like total strangers.
Ridiculous they deleted the Misty character from the anime and even more that they replaced Lillis' voice with a sound-alike, as they also did with Veronica Taylor and Eric Stuart.
Goodbye Rachael Lillis
what year was this interview
I’d like to hear her sing Misty by Ella Fitzgerald.
I love her! The new voice actors suck! I actually can't watch it anymore. Ash's voice has been completely destroyed and jessie sounds like a try hard now :( and James..... James sounds like a demented fish. :(
Omg solofan! Perfect description :)
Yeah it's terrible.
yeah.
Beth Rose true that lucre and the mystery of mew was a sad movie as it farewelled the original cast of pokemon
Agreeee
Thanks. You would be surprised how many other people would respond with a hostile comment over a simple mistake.
Thanks for being cool about it.
Dang, sorry, read that at 2 am in the morning. Sorry, my bad.
Rachel, you need to come back and do Jessie's voice again.
If we brought back Veronica we can bring back the others
Ooooo
🧡🩷

I was wondering and this is a big question
What is her ethnicity ? Shes amazing!! i wanna know.
Irish Italian
