This is probably the most serious I've seen Kennedy act and probably the least serious I've seen of Tori Amos. They both brought the best out of each other.
Tori is actually neutral politically. if you search and watch her "self-healing tips" video, she says: "the show people can be over here (points to the right) doing all kinds of things, the think tanks can be over here (points to the left) trying to indoctrinate our children...but I'm here!!" (and she points to the center).
@@jenns.5791 umm, no, she is a flaming left wing feminist. As with most leftists, they dont care about individual freedom, she wants to demand you think and act like her and stand for what she wants or she gets infuriated. The fascist do what i say or else liberal. She is FAR FAR from neutral.
@@jenns.5791 there is no way she is “neutral” when one side, Kennedy’s side, has eliminated women’s control of their own bodies nationally and in some states has legalized child marriage, eliminated equal marriage rights for interracial, interfaith, and LGBT citizens, and banned artistic expression related to gender. She has a daughter. Her daughter has fewer freedoms and rights at her age than Tori did when she was young. You think Tori supports that? No decent person should.
She's talking about this in 1994 and gets my respect all the way for that! I think that Tori is a mirror in all of her interviews in the way that she's honest enough to match the energy of her interviewer and speaks her mind. That's a rare trait. It's like you get what you give.
seriously..thanks so much for posting this. I really miss this era....this show and remembering my feelings when I found Tori, because this was the time that I found her. Thank you so much!
Tories reached out twice to touch Kennedy's arm while talking with her. This is a true Southern behavior and it means she does like quirky but lovable Kennedy! I'm a Southern Girl too and the entire interview here shows friendship in my humble opinion!
Tori grew up in Maryland and while it is south of the Mason-Dixon line, it’s generally considered mid-atlantic not southern, though there are shades of southern culture in rural areas. Tori is from Montgomery County in a suburb of DC. Overall, Maryland is not culturally the south and the majority of Marylanders consider themselves northern.
I don't know why people don't like Kennedy, She was kooky, sincere and awkward. Can anyone name any interviewers on mtv or on any media channel that are at least half as genuine and not anorexic, plastic bimbos today? The only one I can think of remotely close is Alexa Chung and she got canceled after two seasons and she interviewed people who were just a waste of time like Justin Beiber and Rihanna. I would love to go back to a time when stuff like this and Tori were on tv.
They hated her because she held Conservative/Libertarian views. That was a big no no to the ultra liberal MTV crowd. It only made her more adoring to me.
But . . . "You're a lizard walking around with a stolen genital???" What? I get being disappointed or completely disagreeing with someone's opinion and/or behavior, but that??? It just seems really strange. I never saw this interview and was really surprised that it wasn't this complete male hate fest that seems to be so pervasive through female entertainers and artists.
following the eye roll. "if you're a growing person it's not just about women rights, it's about human rights, you know that's silly. that's fascism." that sounds like Antifa and modern feminism. Tori saw where it was all headed.
@GDGspire Can you explain what you mean about the meet and greets, any examples? Just that I've never been to one but imagine if I did I'd burst into tears or something.
A Meet and Greet is a special V.I.P. pass that allows a fan to go backstage either prior to a concert or immediately after wards, (usually after the show), to meet the artist who greets their fans, takes photos with them and gets their autographs! These use to be free, you only needed to know a person in the industry to get to go to a meet and greet. Sometimes, back then, the radio stations offered them as on-air prizes or as a special promotion. Nowadays, the Meet and Greets are a profit center for the artists/promoter. I recently bought tickets to see a band coming to my town for a show. I then inquired about getting on the list for the Meet and Greet. I was told the V.I.P. Meet and Greet with the artists is $1,000 per person on top of the regular ticket price! So that's it! I hope my lengthy description helped! Take care!!
Wow, common sense on MTV... what's going on here?! THIS ISN'T THE RAP, FASHION, AND THOUGHTLESS COMEDY THAT I USUALLY FIND ON MTV! Seriously though, Tori Amos is cool. And in reality, all of her views should be common sense, but aren't. I just wish everyone thought more like her.
Worst example I've ever seen of a woman (kennedy) being intimidated by an incredibly gracious and gifted woman. Tori Amos was far more gracious than Kennedy deserved, in my opinion. Tori has class.
@njg2q Its slogan was the Music never stops, now its the Music never plays. The Only reason why it play about 6 hours of Music in the wee hours in the morning is because, they have to prepare the crap they are trying to put on during the daytime programming.
This is a great clip. Thanks. Tori is an incredible musical talent and Kennedy is terrific. I really miss Kennedy. Does anyone know what happened to her?
Nothing about what labels are attached to a movement is the movement. Commercailization is a sign of the end. An innovative time, like from the ninetes, is coming back. Just wait. Post Recession Blues on the radio,
Tori has absolutely blown my mind and opinion of her in this interview. I never knew she was actually this liberal to be saying it's not just women's rights, it's human rights. I always thought she was this total misandry loving Fem-Bot jerk. Glad to know she isn't or at least was not back in 1994.
Wow, Tori has zero understanding of what fascism really is. Favoring the group or collective over the individual leads to intolerance of any opinion that doesn't go with what the collective deems acceptable. Usually, the collective will than silence the unacceptable opinion with the threat of or use of violence. To do so would be authoritarian and authoritarianism is fascism. Kennedy on the other hand, who supports individual rights over "collective rights", is as anti-fascist as one can get.
Kennedy was clearly very insecure before Tori and Tori read that kind of body language. However, Tori knew how to handle the situation by just staying cool by not being a jerk to Kennedy.
I grew up listening to Tori Amos ..she got me through some really hard times in my life..I just love her
Same here
This is probably the most serious I've seen Kennedy act and probably the least serious I've seen of Tori Amos. They both brought the best out of each other.
YES! This is back in the day when MTV was the best channel on TV!
Tori Amos was so adorable, like the nerdy theater kids in high school (I was one too 😆)
Love Tori,she was so ahead of the curve in many ways.
It's kind of hilarious watching these two kids back in the day. Could you imagine them having anything to do with each other nowadays?

@John Johnson LOL. Well, it depends on how old the commentator is.
@@jenns.5791 I wish that to be true with her. This is a great meeting of minds. This won't happen ever again. God bless the 90's

When interviews and interviewers weren't so sterile & uptight. Just real & whatever flowed out was imperfectly great.
I remember Kennedy and the alternative nation on MTV. It's been years lol, thanks for sharing.👍👍🙂
Great point, if your a growing person its not just about women rights, its about human rights, well said.

I miss the '90s. It was a pretty chilled decade, at least until the Y2K crap XD
she's so pretty when she made that album!! go TORI!
5:21 I think Tori saw through her.
i really like this interview. also makes me wish i had MTV when it was MUSIC television. too bad i didn't get cable til it turned to crap.
Gotta love Tori's eye roll when Kennedy mentions standing up for individual rights.
But . . . "You're a lizard walking around with a stolen genital???" What? I get being disappointed or completely disagreeing with someone's opinion and/or behavior, but that???

gotta love how people project what they think they see. Kennedy made a damn good point and Tori reiterated it.

There is ONLY individual rights. She clearly does not know what fascism is.
@@GuysCallMeShawna Leftists are fascist.
I might be intimidated by Tori because she's so intelligent. Kennedy is just bonkers though, she's easy to understand.
Fantastic.........
Tori is not amused with this Kennedy chic lol. I love Tori so much.
i remember this one...powerhouse
thanks!
This is...the most awkward interview. Like Tori couldn't look any more bored, forced to have inane conversation.
Thank you for all the comments and likes. I had forgotten about my old account "AntwerpAnt" and had no idea this video was even still around. LOL
shes so beautiful lol!! love how cool and random she is!!xx
God, I miss the 90's!! The world, and music, just made more sense then. Glad Kennedy evolved into such a sexy conservative, I will say! Peace!!
Did MTV not have chairs in the budget?
"You're not a woman, you're a lizard walking around with a human....gential" (motions towards crotch)
CLASSIC.
Tori Amos is brillant I love her. She is so bright, beautiful, talented, and intelligent. Kennedy in this interview is an obvious airhead!
I can't argue with that.
0:26 imagine what she's playing if you can, hahaha-- it fits!
yeah i love that song too

She rolls eyes at 4:12 ha ha.
Song at the beginning during intro? any ideas? muuuuuuch appreciated.
Curve - Superblaster
❤❤❤❤❤❤
I remember Kennedy screaming "Zombie!"
Why is Kennedy so nervous? She's just Tori Amos!...Oh...I get it...
Wow, common sense on MTV... what's going on here?! THIS ISN'T THE RAP, FASHION, AND THOUGHTLESS COMEDY THAT I USUALLY FIND ON MTV!
Seriously though, Tori Amos is cool. And in reality, all of her views should be common sense, but aren't. I just wish everyone thought more like her.
What did that girl say at 2:51 ?
BoysForPele1989 sure knows what he is talkin about :)
Weren't they both rumored to have been involved with Trent Reznor at one time? Along with Courtney Love.
Kennedy was just a friend. Trent and Tori started a relationship which ended when he had an ill-advised tryst with Courtney.
love the eye roll at @4:12
6:29 What kind of a R'd druggie crap is Kennedy mumbling about Henry Rollins?
Worst example I've ever seen of a woman (kennedy) being intimidated by an incredibly gracious and gifted woman.
Tori Amos was far more gracious than Kennedy deserved, in my opinion. Tori has class.
omfg, I luv Kennedy, I always found her cute XD
Does anybody know the name of the song playing from 0:57 to 2:10?
Thank you.
No one has bothered to answer you for seven years?!
The Juliana Hatfield Three - 'For the Birds' on the album 'Become What You Are'
I dont understand why everyone hated Kennedy so much, I love her, shes so awkward, but in a fun, friend of Daria kind of way.
Yes !!! She stands out!
Kennedy is the MTV's Steve Urkel! :D
She looked great in pantyhose, that's for sure.

Tori is great and I think the interviewer is cool.
Kennedy is a talking head on FOX news now - not cool at all
Expresses thoughts about the power in being a woman, finishes with a statement about the urge to make a sandwhich.........
Kennedy is a really bad interviewer, I forgot how annoying she was. The clip makes up for itself though cause Tori is so charismatic
Wow, MTV has really changed, huh?
@00:27 Oooooooh, if I were in front of the both of them, id be playing the piano!!! WITH TWO HANDS!!! 🤌🏽…..🤲🏻One hand for each!!
It's not just tampons and hairspray. Come on......Kennedy was awesome. Even if she is a libertarian nut.
ha all I can think of now when I see kennedy is MJ trying to get all up in that. who can blame him
This is a great clip. Thanks. Tori is an incredible musical talent and Kennedy is terrific. I really miss Kennedy. Does anyone know what happened to her?
Lol I lovvvve Tori Amos. She tells it like it is.
Kennedy was the beginning of the end of MTV. Such a poser. 🤓
That's fascism! We've gotta think as a group!
Didn't Kennedy name her baby Pele? She must be a really big Tori fan! :) That's sweet.

Post Recession Blues
on the radio,
Poor Tori thinks: “ who is that...” Kennedy doesn’t know how to make an interview she is a kinda “fan girl groupie”.
when are they gonna start makingout
You can't stop change. Grunge & Alternative took itself way too seriously and it had to be destroyed.
Did she just bring up toxic femininity?? Both of these women were ahead of there time.
She should have stayed neural. Kennedy should have stayed on Mtv.
Tori talks about the betrayal of women toward women to Kennedy and I hope it shook her right to her conservative snake soul.
iT’s fAsCisM
On the libs.
I love kennedy.
Tori has absolutely blown my mind and opinion of her in this interview. I never knew she was actually this liberal to be saying it's not just women's rights, it's human rights. I always thought she was this total misandry loving Fem-Bot jerk. Glad to know she isn't or at least was not back in 1994.
I hate that Kennedy went MAGa.

She's requesting that we become mindful of creating a balance between individual and group rights, which is the most optimal way.
Well said! The Left with their cancel culture and race-pimping are the true fascists. Love Tori, but she hasn't a clue about politics.
Kennedy was and is HOT!
Kennedy is too smart for Amos. MJ had the right idea.
ProspectNY11211 well you're too stupid for amos
