The nasty comments about her age are almost laughable.
People, you either live and get older, or you DIE. THAT'S IT!! I'm glad that Debbie is still with us, still making music, and that she wrote this fantastic book.
These disrespectful idiots don't know were their music comes from....DH is a Pioneer
i can still see many of her beauty features. isn't this cute/hot/fantastic? what a woman, and yes, let me scatter a little poison: what in the earth was C. Stein thinking? rethorical.
I can't find a single nasty comment about her on here
she is a remarkable woman.....and those idiots who shame her age accomplished nothing in life. Her successes speak for themselves!!!!!!!!
I dare one person who is making fun of her age to show us that they don't age. It's a stupid criticism. That's like making fun of people from 200 years ago because they're still not alive.
I don’t think Debbie truly realises how special she is to planet earth - her combination of reality and legend is truly inspiring
You've made a big statement! ".Special for the planet Earth." And what makes her so special?
@@user-xs9dw4uv6hare you from Mars a Biden you don't know where have you lived at all your life did not know about Debbie Harry
Most people fail to realize that when you're a beautiful person, you'll keep being beautiful no matter what age you are, so Debbie will always be gorgeous to me.
BLONDIE is a BAND, And a great band Debbie Harry is the singer and yes she is forever awesome, but her name isn't Blondie 😉
Attractive young women become . . . attractive older women . . . .
@@johnminehan1148, yes
Tell other men that!:))@@johnminehan1148
It’s her personality that’s awesome too
The world is definitely a better place with Debbie in it. A life long fan, over 40 years and forever.
I love how Debra Harry had a perfect balance in her creative career. She could be attractive, sexy, creative, unique without being trashy! Many of today's artist don't understand the concept of keeping it classy!
Rachelle Walters you can’t keep it classy if you have no class.
Completely agree.
Beautiful, but at the same time always edgy, smart, insanely talented, and just inherently COOL. An iconic, integral and seminal voice in the last 40+ years of popular music.
She is clearly intelligent and a real nice and very down to earth accessible person.
@PeckyThePigeon as you will become just uglier and more bitter
@@asteriusblack it's a pigeon, we should not feed it, pigeons shit everywhere. 😝
It doesn’t matter how many years go by Debbie will always be an icon. She’s timeless really xx
I mean this in the most positive way, she is now the Betty White to the Boomers
I hope I look like her in my 70’s 💕🙏🏻🌟❤️
@PeckyThePigeon wtf
PeckyThePigeon what do you look like ? You sound jealous. Debbie will never look like an old bag.
@PeckyThePigeon no, that is you.
@PeckyThePigeon well I'm in my 30s and I already look like an old bag! AND without the money! Btw how do YOU look?
@PeckyThePigeon i bet you are fat and unemployed
She looks amazingly great for being 74. Love her. Love Blondie!
Ok, she’s an old woman.can we all just accept that ? Old women aren’t supposed to be “beautiful “..they can be loving, virtuous, kind, wise..but leave beauty to youth.
@@foxx2990 theres beauty in every age....maybe not like being in your 20s or 30s but still...
Beauty takes different forms, and not just physical beauty. In that sense, yes, one can have an inner beauty, etc....but the general definition of beauty , which is generally defined in its physical manifestation, as it is recognised by the majority, generally excludes the old
Bunch of aholes. Look in the mirror, bet none of you are good looking.
Cynthia Allen exactly ! She looks amazing!! Good grief people are so hateful. I’m really gonna have to stop reading comments ..... ❤️
Debbie has been and will always be a mystical queen of cool. Loved her back in the 70's and still love her today. Keep it going Debbie.
This interview reminds me of conversations I had when I was younger with my cool Grandma, may she Rest In Peace. Looking back though I feel I could have shown her more respect with the personal topics I discussed with her. She took it in stride though, the same way Debbie does. Debbie has an amazing voice. Back in 1979 disco was so huge that new rock acts found it hard to get noticed and old rock acts had to perform disco hits to stay relevant. The group Blondie was able to be considered both a disco group and a punk rock group all at the same time without all the orchestration and production that made it difficult for disco acts to have live performances. It was what the music world needed at the time. I’m not sure what 80s pop music would have been like if Blondie hadn’t paved the way. It was the music I grew up with. I thank Debbie for the 40+ years of being able to enjoy her music. Strange how fast the years go by.
Still beautiful at 74. She’s so down to earth.
What makes her so amazing is the intelligence behind her beautiful looks!
What makes this thread so misogynist is the lack of awareness behind such ugly words .
And all that real talent too!
Oh, so if you're beautiful you're not smart? Idiot.
because Blondie is really *male*
@m v Can you read? Did you actually read Eric J's post? He explicitly says "her beautiful looks".
2:15 What a smile she has. Most were so enthralled by her physical prettiness and beauty that people didn't realize how ridiculously talented a singer and songwriter Debbie was.
Her live singing style was unique sounding, like when she sang with kermit. Yes i know she's still a great singer , just thinking about her past accomplishments
the interviewer was friendly,to the point,good questions ,Debbie seemed to enjoyed her inteview.
And now she's 78 years old and still rockin'. Amazing. 🙌🏻
I love how she dresses she is young at heart and doesn't dress old! Good for her!
I guess it's also because she's a hardcore girl, not the opera star, soul performer. I guess the genre also leads her to dress that way.
I'm nearly 50...."dressing old" is way from the "olden days"
She’s an inspiration to us all.
Yes she is
Debbie you'll always be a rock goddess icon Happy 75th Debbie. Her autobiography is jaw-dropping and incredible!!
Lay off the interviewer lol. He’s sitting inches away from legendary rock royalty. Probably his biggest gig to date. Most of us would have kissed her feet and asked for a selfie.
She is one of the nicest and most genuine stars .
Bollocks. He's a paid "journalist". I bet he's never even heard a Blondie song.
They're just people. I worked in an indie record store for six years and never got star struck and met PLENTY of my idols from King Diamond to Aerosmith. Most were interesting people who'd have been great to sit round a bar and listen to their stories. Some were pompous asshoels....they're just PEOPLE who happen to have a very public profession. Debbie is down to earth from all I've seen, there's other's I would never what to meet like the vast majority of pompous assholes in pop today. This bloke is too young too remember the Blondie phenomena.
rt 1407 Are you a child?
Blondie was great. I would have preferred more questions about their early days starting out and more about which songs she liked to perform and also questions about her band mates and other groups like the Ramones and Clash
@@Coasterdude02149 Must have been interesting working in that record store. Who were the pompous assholes ? please do tell. lol
She does not look 74. At all.
But thats the thing though. She does look her age , but absolutely beautiful with it. She's an inspiration
Adrenochrome
@PeckyThePigeon you wont even get to that age i bet
@@bo2720 I believe she's had some things "done" but she never seems to have gone too far. I think if she were to have a WEE amount of filler in her lips---just to return her previous "valentine lips", she'd look more like herself. I'm not talking anything crazy...
Absolutely fantástic!!!!...she ‘s absolutely fantastic....💪🏻😘...74 years old and still here.!!!..i love you Debbie!!!👑😘
Other than my wife, Debbie Harry will always be my dream woman. There's a punk/New Wave thing, with a strong sense of compassion and sincerity. Even when she was young she seemed so earnest and sincere, where most of the punk girls I knew had to act tough to hide their vulnerability.
Get her memoir on audio: she’s a great narrator and takes you on the journey of her life and music.
She is just as amazing as the first time She appeared on the music seen , I love how powerful her voice is and her ability to stay in the music stream never failing to deliver quality and beauty at the same time .
Debbie has always been, and will always be, both cool and beautiful !
Love you forever Debra! We loved to see you on the beach in Asbury Park, NJ, a couple of years ago. You , and your fine band, gave us a lot of great times. Thank you for the music!
Debbie represents herself and Blondie with candid and direct dignity. She is polite and in her words. "Happy to be here". she makes the most of any given situation. It's been a really fun couple of weeks. With the release of Face It and reading articles and watching these interviews. I have the book and have been happily turning pages. Without reading any of it just yet. I want the moment to last. I love you Ms. Harry. Thank you for the music, personality and beauty.
She still has the sexiest smile ever. What a beautiful lady.
She's forever a goddess.
Thanks to a little good surgery
Debbie seems like one heaven of a cool chick. She is forever a goddess.
@@melgrant7404 Probably ... but the outcome is obviously much better compared to what I've seen on many others who underwent that kind of surgery.
@@EuphratTigris agree
Icon worship and dull industry magazines forever ...
My god she just puts a big smile on your face 😁 ❤️ This absolute legend 😘
That sweet smile of hers is still there .
I’d love to meet Debbie, she’s been my crush since I first saw her in heart of glass in 1978 when I was 7 , here I am at 48 still blown away by her magnificence ❤️
Yesss! That was my first time Seeing her as well in the eighties 😍
She was one of the most gorgeous blondes...
My crush since Slow motion.
She’s an eternal beauty!
She's amazing, and incredibly patient. I loved the interviewer's style too. I've been fascinated by her for decades!
Jeffrey B.........me too - Geoffrey B .....lol
I saw a glimpse of her interview on telly when I was recently over in Amsterdam & I thought what she said was the Truth & she is Wonderful & Fair play to her she looks Beautiful for 74. 💜 One love Top-Notch xx
She is such a lovely lady so humble . Intelligent and naturally gorgeous.
Debbie is still so beautiful! 74 years old, people....and she is still so classy and gorgeous! Articulate, smart...and still driven to work. Hope she starts making music again!
Word on the street is that in her book, Ms. Harry remains as mysterious as ever!
This is a really smart lady, and very lovely. Well spoken.
She exudes a kind of mellow classiness.
so genuine. A true rock queen. Such a good book. Listend on Audible, she narrates it.
Half way through reading this book, it's very interesting. She is a wonderful person, honest, frank & a great personality.
Simply gorgeous at any age. So cool and intelligent. I'm proud to call her my hero.
Her intelligence is underrated. Smart lady. I love the responses she gives. They're always spot on, sometimes unexpected and usually understated.
Loved this interview. This Lady has always fascinated and inspired me (no I am not a stalker). Let's just say I think this world is a better place with her in it. xxx
The same goes for me!
a gorgeous and humble lady
Saw Blondie in 1977 when she was just beginning her career. She came across as bright, youthful and bolder
then all the others that had proceeded her. She was like a big round headed cat that could easily slide into a children's pop show. Which she did when she appeared on the Muppet Show. She always has an edge but at the same time has a charmful way about her. 💜🐯🏡🍁🎃🍁
When I saw her on the Muppet Show, I was still a toddler but I begged my mom to get me the record of "Call Me" so I had the American Gigolo soundtrack LP at 4 years old.
First woman to rap
@@seltzermint5 haha nice!
She's one of my many rock heros! Saw Blondie in Detroit's Masonic Theater, and it was great. They played with Nic Lowe and Elvis Costello. Three bands for twenty-five dollars, you can't see a concert for that price anymore. Blondie was always one of best bands of the Punk Era.

I think that a Blondie biopic could work if she and some of the other members were consultants. I believe Joan Jett consulted on the Runaways movie.
i loved this interview and ive loved blondie and admired Debbie Harry since i first heard them back in the 70s....well done to this guy interviewing and o cant wsit to read the book.....she is so cool and non judgemental
Great interview, excellent interviewer and as always, Debbie shines.
Super classy super honest. The world needs more her always
Wow shes still beautiful...
How great is Debbie Harry...the first woman to rap in popular music
She entranced me as a kid. Gorgeous, feminine, unashamedly sexy, fearless, fierce. My ideal self..
@PeckyThePigeon Shut up, low life idiot.
When I was in my teens, she was the epitome of sexy and cool, aloof and unapproachably divine.
Me too. She’s why I bleached my hair when I was 14. I was obsessed.
I've loved her since I was 17. I had the privilege of seeing her live in Vancouver about 8 or 9 years ago. She's still my fav...xx
She said the thing that really messed with her career and looks was the amount of drugs . Shes still luved ❤
She's always had the perfect smile.
What a lovely artist and interviewer.
The hours with their records in the 70s. Saw her dance down our table at couch house much later. Now I get to read her book. ☺️
She is fantastic! The coolest creature on earth!
I read her book and she consider’s herself a lifelong punk, thus the outfit. VERY COOL!
well I Went to one of her concert in Toronto I got an autograph drum stick and her band that she threw to us while singing it was awesome.......and yes i still have it you rock debbie .....blondie
What a QUEEN. Saw her live last yr ( or 2) and she was so high energy and sounded amazing!
Still so hardcore. That's hard to sustain for so many years. She's amazing. My whole life she's been on the soundtrack.
She always seems more comfortable when Chris is with her during interviews.
I noticed that. It’s understandable.
It's sad.
@@PikesvilleAl She's just shy is all.
chris and debbie forever
The most beautiful thing I have ever seen, just happens to be a person. When I first saw Debbie I was stunned and I still am. Someone so beautiful and with so much talent is beyond belief. Angels do exist...
Debbie of course is a wonderful Rock Star, But I wish she had made many more movies. She is a creative actress .
The queen of rock
What I love about this interview is how Harry doesn't sound old at all - she obviously has a lot to say and sounds completely contemporary - but you notice her reflections down memory lane embody a completely different mindset pinning her to a different era in regards to things like gender or sexual politics. It's pretty incredible how matter-of-factly she is able to dismiss or roll with something like having Bowie expose himself to her or her story about the photo she was promised would be cropped. She never espouses any #womenpower, victim ideology or feminist posturing through any of the discussion. It's very refreshing, and makes her seem more powerful and progressive than any number of female pop stars who are just an army of yappers (who probably have it 10x better than Harry ever did). Lots of respect for her in her candor and demeanor in this interview.
A true pioneer a legend we are lucky to have her among us
Gosh, Debbie is great, articulate, thoughtful & grounded. Not just a pretty face. Good interview.
My God! Her voice still sounds EXACTLY the same as when she was in her 30s!!! So many people when they get into their 70s sound old. (My mother is 72 and it is true of her). But if I close my eyes, I immediately know it's Debbie Harry's voice!
Love to see Debbie and Cyndi Lauper in concert together! They both are young at heart and it would be epic!
MultiValerie21 both Debbie and cyndi did a gig at a winery in Australia a few years ago, it definitely was awesome
Fantastic interview - LOVE Debbie Harry!
I love you blondie I love all your music and my dear you look amazing I’m happy that you still with us so much love always
Let’s dance to some Blondie mami
Great interview, thanks for this.
2:52 she caught a little bit of a british accent haha love her
SHE visits Scotland a lot (from the MacLean clan)..her real name is Angela Trimble
She looks beautiful here. She’s just great.
This is my favourite interview of late
Amazing lady, my absolute hero! 😍😎
I love this lady, her beauty no way takes away from her musical talent. It's not her fault she was gorgeous
Saw her solo at Toad's Place New Haven 1989 and had the pleasure of meeting her downstairs in the refrigerator room, and she signed a couple LP's I had! Was the last one ushered in the room, and the first to have anything signed! She was surprised to see that I had "Def Dumb & Blonde" on vinyl! Had that signed along with a Private Stock promo "Blondie" LP! She signed "Def Dumb & Blonde" Love Debbie! A great show, she sounded great and the band was pretty good! Stein looked through a scrapbook that I was passing around the crowd! Can't believe that I got it back with all the pics still in it! Chris looked at every page! Aaah youth! Saw Blondie at The Beacon in 2017, Pollinator tour. They were awesome!
That is so awesome. I love Def Dumb & Blonde!
Ms. Dabbie has always done cool things and put out great music. My 1st two vinyl 45’s records were Blondie’s Heart of glass and another group that made the single Funky Town😄 I never got to here her in concert or on cable television. Learning more about her on TH-cam in the past day or two than I did in my previous 50yrs here
Debbie looks amazing as ever and as cool as always was. Debbie and Marilyn in my eyes have to be the best looking and most cool women ever. And what a voice. Very cool.
WOW she still looks so good!
Queen of the universe. Great interview x
Debbie Harry is a legend! The book is terrific!
She is AMAZING. So is her book, got it for my birthday.
Debbie is mesmerizing as ever. Always has been and appears always will be.
the biography is really good! debbies life is so interesting, and her way of writing is pleasant to read, also for someone who's native langauge isn't english. Debbie is such a great role model, I am fascinated by her, she talks in such a calm and intelligent way.
Blondie was my 1st album ever in the 70’s and I loved her but after this book I worship her. What a collection of endless stories told incredibly well and by the icon herself which only added to the experience!!! 🩷🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I’m going to go out and buy her book today, cause I can absolutely relate to her life journey of overcoming.
Same here, thinking of ordering it!
Blessed to have seen her live, beautifully gifted.
lizardywizard she's not dead !!
i love u i’ve read all of your face it and you’re still my idol ❤️ i’d die for you debbie
Great book, just finished reading it.
Bless the interviewer...not quite grown into his clothes yet. Nice interview.
but i liked him, was sweet
aisey100 this was a criticism, beautifully stated. ❤️
@@ionthetarget Much more elegant than the way I would describe the creep. Awful interview with ANOTHER post millennial who just can't avoid projecting his own tiny , naive worldview onto her life story.
Debbie never ages! She still has that sense of humour! :)
She said she has had plastic surgery
She is so exceptional, my all time best icon
I used one of her songs for a bmx video part in 2004 for a high school project.
I have always, absolutely, adored Debbie Harry. I think one of my greatest fantasies would be just to sit down and chat with her over a beer.
Same here!!
