Such a beautiful and talented person 😍
Ooohhh - love the blonde! It really works.
Long live Suzy Eddie Izzard !
Gorgeous video! Really resonated with me, I’ve always admired Eddie, and now Suzy as well. Also strangely enough this was recorded on my birthday AND I was born in 1985. Wonderful to know this beautiful human has been trying to be honest to themselves and living their best life for as long as I’ve been alive!
We'll, I'd say it looks like Eddie came through menopause quite well!💕
I'm still going thru my Meno
at least he/she didn't have the flushes and night sweats.
Or the aggressive mood swings

Eddie/Suzy is such a huge inspiration. TY so much for having the courage to be yourself. A great role model for a world of love and acceptance. 💖💖💖💖
Someone's slowing morphing into a parody of Pat Butcher 😐
beautiful, intelligent and kind people - gifts to this world
Aw suzy come and stand in Salford 😊
You are perfect

From the thumbnail before reading the title I thought she let herself go 😂 before I realised
Legend 👏👏👏
It seems to be a difference in how peoples minds work. Some people passively absorb cultural roles as far as its circumstantially useful, but invest in their innate biological personality as themselves. Other people proactively construct their cultural self from all available parts, presumably to mask or distract from the uncertain reality of their biological selves (often traumatised, ill or disabled people who wont be socially validated for their antisocial tendencies it seems)
thank you for your bravery Suzy. What is interesting for me is that my art tutors at college loved your comedy and even played it to us as inspiration for a project. I came out to them and they used to be so supportive of my work and after I told them they wanted nothing to do with me. I wonder what they will feel now as you have now been so open about yourself. they really loved and respected you so much, and im sure they still do now too. For me it is healing because it shows me that though I felt so low about myself back then, I now feel it was about them not me. they were not better than me to look down on me. they are now learning im sure... its so hard to carry that for so many years. She's right, it is just the stage we are in now, black people, women, gay people alll went through a period of discrimination and the world is much better towards them now, because they fought in the past. this is just what we have to go through right now. It is the now ... one been through it for years and accept it just is what it is , for now ;)thank you Xx
Unfortunately there are some who feel threatened when someone, some ‘other’ is presented to them and they cannot comprehend it, so they act out in anger for no actual reason.
So strong and brave xoxo
Cool as ever, & offering a choice to anyone who addresses him/her. Mad respect.
So I guess the worst one can be accused of re: Izzard would just be "Ed-naming"...
woah very cool.
Suzy/Eddie is such an inspiration. The sheer bravery is igniting. Life is too short for anyone to live anything less than their authentic life. Good for her, hope she goes all the way!
I agree. He's never shoved anything down anyone's throat. He makes it perfectly plain that he's not bothered whether people call him Eddie or Suzy and has no axe to grind. Great comedian and actor, compassionate, intelligent, aware and very authentic.
He's a man not a woman are you fkn deluded aswell
Eddie is a guy. Not a she/her

Keep spreading your message. A true champion for all.
If Women actually looked like him I'd probably be Gay 😂

Eddie has lost his mind 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤡

Eddie Izzard is a man, he has XY chromosomes.
Does he? Have you checked? Also why does it bother you what someone refers to themselves as? Sounds like you’re the one with the issue here fella

@@theburbles4260 You poor dear, you can play with any rules you like! Totally up to the group playing! Many games customize gameplay. You can even introduce rules that you feel were left out. My, how regimented some become- even with no overseers. Kind of scary, actually. 😬
@@theburbles4260 I think the grammatical term you are looking for is proper nouns.
Oh pleeeease

Finally, a funny woman :)
The amount of people who justify hatred of others based on their own personal life decisions when it has absolutely zero affect on themselves is startling.
Oh god I thought she was removed.
Stop talking over the top of him please let him speak I find it annoying
AGP
AGP??
@@reenierossi3724 autogynephile. Sexually attracted to the idea of himself as a woman, either just dressing as a woman, being validated as one, or allegedly having female experiences such as menstruation and pregnancy. Not saying he’s the latter but many AGPs are. He gets a kick out of dressing that way and being called Suzy.
The AGP claim has no basis in peer reviewed research (or, indeed, the lived reality of trans individuals - peculiarly, they always go after trans women. Trans men might just blow a tiny mind).
@@FrankNFurter1000 trans men aren’t trying to access men’s spaces or dominating their sports. They’re not screaming “trans men are men” at “rallies” where they shut down the opposition through physical violence. It’s almost as if being female and female socialisation plays a part in the non-domination of trans men’s narratives. As for AGP, if you can think of another explanation of why men derive sexual pleasure from seeing themselves dressed as women or claiming female experience (you can go all the way back to Jessica Yaniv to find a trans woman with a period fetish), go for it. They’re basically admitting it themselves on trans Reddit and TikTok. Isn’t lived experience what people report themselves?
@@FrankNFurter1000 Exactly. The claim from transphobes that all or most trans women are AGP has absolutely no actual evidence to back it up. Blanchard's theory (which is where term "autogynephilia" originated from) has absolutely no scientific basis behind it whatsoever, and was steeped in his pre-disposed bias. A friend of mine who is trans, said she was first aware of her dysphoria at the age of 4, long before she had sexual feelings or attractions of any kind, and many other trans people are aware of their dysphoria at an early age too. Whilst of course, fetishistic males who get a sexual kick from dressing as women exist, there is no actual evidence whatsoever that most trans girls/women fit into that category.
"She"?
Hair and makeup pulllease…
GAWD I love this human
That guy stinks...
I miss Eddie
He certainly is a comedian
Not really
But it's a bloke!
Clown world....
He used to be funny.
This bloke 'Suzy' used to be funny at one point in time.
Says a lot more about you as the humour is as funny as ever, just be honest about what you dont like.
Anything for attention.
Pathetic.
That’s all it boils down to, this radical pandemic of narcissism
...He/She looks like 'Pink' on steroids.
Absolutely disgraceful 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
His name - the fella is a man.
dysphoria is a strange affliction , its based around what they think they are , and reality has no place in their life
not with that attitude
@@tdearsan not going along with delusion isn't an attitude
@@hotpotat0es unless you have a Ph.D in genetics...
I have a lot of admiration for Eddie Izzard. An incredible athlete, compassionate and intelligent. He is not female, though. He seems to have this odd ambiguity about it all and says he's in "girl mode" and "boy mode" and now Eddie and Suzy, which he knows is putting people on edge. He should be able to dress and do whatever he likes, but he is very obviously a man, and i don't think it's ignorant to say so. I think it's ignorant,disingenuous and an insult to women to say otherwise.
I'm still confused by the new "Transgender" tag, though, even after lengthy explanation.
Transvestite has always been a perfectly serviceable name for what you see when looking at Izzard: simple cross-dressing.
To needlessly switch over to a term that traditionally has indicated chemical/surgical toggling of the bog equipment just adds more confusion to a matter that is already threatening to claim double the previous amount of public restroomage, most of the colors in the spectrum *and* half of letters in the alphabet!
You think I'm exaggerating? Well, yesterday I went online and tried to donate $50 to the cause --
and an hour later a delivery truck was at my front door bringing me a dozen X-LG DQ BLTs!!!
@@carmelcream7662 That's the very attitude that allows it to continue to happen. Don't be so short sighted!
He looks like a right freak
@@kenlieck7756 😂
He was a better comedian before the Suzy thing
He definitely looks extremely healthy and mentally stable
It so sad I hope Eddie recovers soon.
projection?
@@mjowsey no, facts
@@mjowseyIs this literally all you write in every comment section where someone points out how absurd this all is?
@@Revelian1982 why are you like this?
@@mjowsey twerp
OH PLEASE !I LOVE EDDIE BUT LETS JUST LEAVE IT THERE !🙄
C L O W N W O R L D
He totally beggars belief!!!!!
And not for a positive reason!
Wish it was as easy as just putting on some lippy & a frock to be a Woman. But Izzard there is rather more than that involved. Fear not, you'll never have PMT or Periods or become Pregnant & Give Birth. You can just play at it.
I'm a fan of Eddie Izzard, but I don't understand why he's suddenly pretending to be a Woman!?
Amen.
Eddie is not pretending anything, just being.
@@mjowsey So was he lying years ago when he described himself as a ‘male tomboy’, while explaining his transvestism during his stand up?
@@helenwebster6020 I doubt that he was lying, he's just saying how he feels at the time. Why are you sooo bothered about this?
@@mjowsey I used to like the guy.
Sick civilisation..
It's a man.
Pathetic display. Lock him up.
For what crime?
He'll soon be the new BBC boss.
I adore her. Thank you Suzy.
Your abig inspiration to our community and to the world 🌍.
I am gay and didn't come until the early 90s and now at age 57 I am the happiest i ever been.
I adore Suzy. Shes so talented, genuine and inspiring. The interviewer is a pro as well.
Is that really the esteem you hold your womanhood in? To be so accepting of anybody referring to themselves in your gender. Suzy is and will always be a he. In 5000 years time, if his dna is tested, it will always show he is a male. Nothing will ever change that.
It's a bloke .are you fkn deluded or something
Suzy is a guy.
...but shes not@@helenwebster6020
She's terrified of him, he's nuts and unpredictable; one phone-call and she's out of a job. She also knows, as he does, that he is a male homosexual transvestite who is now protected from opprobrium by claiming he is a, 'trans-woman' - whatever that is?
Lorraine looks tired
Looks like she doesn't wanna be there too, or that she's particularly interested in what he's saying.
Just paying him lip service I think.
saw him on his san francisco in 1999 telling everyone that he was a male tomboy who was a straight man who likes girls who wears makeup and heels but he was in the height of his career so maybe suzy is the latest girl’s favourite name and he is trying to keep relevant in his elder career as i was a fan of eddie and he was shocking in his day i’m sure he would of joked about it if not actually admitted to it
he’s in the cult of hurt feelings brigade
Found the 2-5% of triggered kids
I completely agree with you.
At what point did Eddie say or imply anything about "hurt feelings".
Seems to me that you are the one who is feeling angry and upset.
Terfs are pathetic. Suzy is amazing 💙
He is a guy. Nothing woman about him. He looks like a cross dressing crack addict
Terfs have a firm grip on reality, Eddie was once funny.
@@helenwebster6020 “I have a firm grip on reality” is literally what insane people say dude

If it’s live and let live. What’s Edward’s issue?
You can't just pick what name you are to fir what day you decide what gender you want to be. Possibly to benefit yourself. This would be most apparent in women's sports
Sure 'Chris'
It's true what they say, women are just not funny.
I take it you're a woman then?
"She is planning her new one woman show". What an insane world we live in now that people have to go along with this. He's still calling himself Eddie for tours etc. God forbid he'd miss out on some ticket sales by people not realising who Suzy Izzard is
something something lipstick on a pig, something something
Will never vote for him
He does a brilliant job in two roles pretending to be a woman and pretending to be a comic! We need Eddie at Christmas time oh no we don’t oh yes we do!
Consider the arrogance of this? From a real woman's (from birth/with a womb etc) perspective. Seems some have forgotten eh Lorraine? Let me literally step into your identity and consume it, no wonder he's laughing so much? (comparing it to slavery too and a wee dig at the right oh well done, virtue signalling) He doesn't know what the meaning of life is (he admits) but his way is the best way because he says it so? Inclusive eh????? If you buy this you'll buy literally ANYTHING? Peace always. Otherwise funny likeable chap!
