She is everything I expect from a Supermodel: GORGEOUS INTELLIGENT ELOQUENT CHARMING In the firmament of supermodels Paulina is one of most brilliant stars
@@LittleKittyCat First off, it's a SAYING not a LITERALLY meaning but with that said MANY PEOPLE believe life IS a gift from God and DNA is life so yeah she does have bone structure from God. And so do you. Now go be a smart a** with someone else.
I saw her where I worked in the year 2001 with Ric Ocasek. She was looking at tile samples. She was only wearing a sweat suit in a baby blue color. She looked so tall. Natural beauty. That was 23 years ago!!! People: time flies😮
If that's "Slavic" it's boorish. Like why go on the show. Give me a break, she played like she could care less which is more infuriating because it means she is a sell out.
I was stunned to see how well versed in English she is. It wasnt until then, that I realized that she left Czechoslovakia at 10. She has a very distinct, rather soviet-like accent, but her fluency is superb.
Her parents immigrated to Sweden first, from Czechoslovakia, when she was 6, I think, leaving her behind, because the escape from the communist camp with heavily patrolled and barb wired border was dangerous, and she then joined them with her grandmother few years later when she was about 10, still in Sweden, from where they continued to America later on. At least I think that's how she got into the free world when she was little. Her escape with her nana was also very dramatic, because the communist were very obstructive and didn't want the family to reunite in Sweden, they wanted to use 6 y.o. Paulina as a collateral and a extortion tool for her parents to return to the commie Eastern Europe! God, those were really horrendously hard times for the people there! Disgusting regime! I hate communists with a vengeance!
What matters is that the guy treats her well and she likes him. He doesn’t need to be “5 stars” according to other’s standards. Only 5 stars by her standards ^^

Had never actually seen an interview with her. Anyone who can fluster Dave is good in my book. That's rare lol. I'd only ever seen some photos....and the music video for The Cars' Drive. And always thought she was inhumanly gorgeous....just beyond captivating and beautiful. And it turns out...she's got a killer personality. Very real, witty, and smart. I like her even more now....
She starred in the movie "Her Alibi" with Tom Selleck back in the 80s, that was the first time I saw her, then I read about her being a supermodel and married to Rick Otcasek and I thought what a lucky S.O.B. Turns out he really was a S.O.B.
@@LittleLulubee well you should but also you should know in year 1986 when he did his show all he cared about if the people of that time gonna like the show or not and the fact is they did and they just didn't liked it they loved it..he didn't care about what a post internet toxic social media tiktok loving 16 year old kids gonna think of him after 35 years later ..i would be a little hard to anticipate how the worlds gonna look like 35 years later don't you think?
Agree but the world has evolved and professional in that profession don't have any upside like that anymore . Impossible to upgrade that level since you reach that level by entering a new market followed by huge amount of money and glamour there you have the peak performance . From that point is only downwards .
Back in those days, I remembered just two things. Supermodels and Rockstars ruled Mankind. With a few genetic freaks like Arnold Schwarzenegger to remind us what living it big truly meant. Nowadays? Everything is Made In China. People now are so used to cheap ass, low quality kak that they'd even mistaken Amy Schumer for a reincarnation of Cindy Crawford. It isn't far-fetched to say that this generation is tasteless.
Nowhere near the extremely sarcastic and indirect english breed. This is an east European attitude. The further east, the more accentuated those qualities are.
Because she established boundaries with him. Notice how he kept calling her “cute” which actually would take power away from her, but instead of taking it in and “being nice” she kept the upperhand by keeping powerful energy and saying “yeah haha whatever”. Letterman was probing. She didn’t give him a chance.
She reminds me of my wife....beauty in her intelligence, honesty and sense of humour, which only complement the physical part. I've intimately known physically beautiful women when young and they did nothing for me where intelligence was lacking.
@@jennevans85 ...to be honest with you, I find it hard to believe any man that loves to learn and enjoys challenging his comfort zone would not be attracted to intelligent women.
@@majortom6382 you are right. What is hard is actually finding a man that loves to learn and enjoys challenging his comfort zone. I'm not a men hater in any way. I'm just stating facts of the vast majority I've met. Most of them say they love intelligent women and end up with an agreeable one out of "comfort". That's why I think you are one of the few and love the way you make reference to your wife. 😊
You popped up on my page and since I remember seeing you in a movie back in the day I been following your interviews. All I will say is don't try to make the new you into the younger you; become the Paulina that you are today. You have so much to offer just being who you are; be blessed and enjoy the new you !!!
She's great fun and I agree with Zhiivago's comment totally. She was head and shoulders above so many people in the industry back in the 1980s and into the 1990s in terms of character, sense of humour, savvy and a quirky intelligence. She was overlooked as a personality due to the era and industry she worked in but today, holy smokes, she'd be a household name that would put the airheaded Kardashians to shame. The Kardashians appear to have shared custody of one personality. Paulina has personality in abundance. I was fascinated and magnetised by her back then, and I still am today-- I'd love to see more from her delivered in HER own way as a leader not a follower. In today's digital landscape, there's too much anodyne content and generic obnoxiousness which is all void of creative inspiration entirely when it comes to the 'cult of personality' vloggers and content creators. I'd love to see her do it her way for a last hurrah. Paulina you're lovely. 😍😍
I STILL have Paulina's Estee Lauder promotional advertisement brochures in my bedroom dresser. My mother saved them from the late 70's and early 80's. I am 62 now and will always think that Paulina was the most gorgeous woman in the world. I put her on an actual pedestal because of her unequalled beauty. She was my standard to follow back then.
Paulina at 21 years old she speaks American Style English so good, she seems so Educated, my mom was born in Upstate, from Parents born in Poland,my mom's mom didn't like communist just like Paulina, but Paulina sounds american born speaking better than my grandparents who been here in the U.S.A. over 50 years. I admire Paulina & she does make men's hearts beat faster. her fan, George LeBlanc Jr.🏈🗽
Paulina grew up in Sweden since she was 3 years old. Most people from there have very little to no accent when they speak English. At least starting with people born after WWll. They learn English at a very young age there.
People probably mocked and underestimated her often... and they regretted it. Love this woman. What Ric Ocasek did to her was criminal. He left her out of his will. He never deserved her.
Paulina was no bullshit, funny, and loveably dorky. The fact that she’s one of the most beautiful models ever…. is just a plus. This girl put Dave’s ass in complete check. Love it.
Icon of Muses Paulina. Drive is one of my greatest admired songs. I never knew that you are in it. Just these days in 22 knew that you and Ric were married.
Paulina was always very candid about the ugly side of modeling.
She milked it.
she seems legitimately smart and nice.
@@mynie so much she knew how to milk it.
I see a very direct and pragmatic kind of person probably cynic too.
But she's still doing it!?!
She has more personality then most. Already at that age, fantastic!
than most
@@dacsus want a 🍪
more personality than the host...
How tf u have more personality than someone
No way..what she say doesn't make sense.
She's everything you don't expect from a model
And still the best model
But her beautifulness
She just seems European to me not raised to giggle as if she has not a thought in her pretty little head.
She is everything I expect from a Supermodel: GORGEOUS INTELLIGENT ELOQUENT CHARMING
In the firmament of supermodels Paulina is one of most brilliant stars
What do u mean ?
Bone structure from God. This is a huge reason why she still looks fantastic today.
She is so witty and quick, love it.
Me too, very much so
It's genetics, not God.
@@LittleKittyCat First off, it's a SAYING not a LITERALLY meaning but with that said MANY PEOPLE believe life IS a gift from God and DNA is life so yeah she does have bone structure from God. And so do you. Now go be a smart a** with someone else.
It might even being 1) eating meat 2) good tongue poisture.
I’m not kidding: look it up
Genetics from mum + dad and their families.
I saw her where I worked in the year 2001 with Ric Ocasek. She was looking at tile samples. She was only wearing a sweat suit in a baby blue color. She looked so tall. Natural beauty. That was 23 years ago!!! People: time flies😮
She was 21 and carried herself this well?? Pff, I'm impressed. Most models today are so shallow.
Most 21 are on a tiktok being utterly stupid.
Most back then were pretty shallow back then also
Le wrong generation
She was super clever. Got the full lottery looks and brain. Me, I can't even spell properly..lol
So you know them?
She has the Slavic soul. The straightforward non bullshit attitude and humour without intention to entertain and be "funny".
Yup the type of soul Dostoyevsky and especially Tolstoy loved to write about
Yesss. True
If that's "Slavic" it's boorish. Like why go on the show. Give me a break, she played like she could care less which is more infuriating because it means she is a sell out.
Nope, she is arrogant, but she is 21, stunningly beautiful, world widely famous and that is the most expected behavior for that combo.
@@Walter37165 boorish?weird word .Slavs are not that expressive people ,not everyone needs to behave like an american wtf
She is incredible. Way ahead of her time and wise beyond her years

She was stunning A perfect face , eyes like jewels este lauder paid her 6 million to represent the company , she also had a brain.
@@cynthiahusband106 She Is stunning And hopefully retained her brains
Soviet-like accent? Not really. Czechoslovakia has never been part of the Soviet Union.......
@@ilecier yes, Einstein.
She is like a five star human being. I wish she had married a guy who was also a five star person, but I know she loved him deeply.
Yes i follow her on instagram.

Yeah Rick was a very vile person. Ugly inside and outside.
David: "How did you get on the list of the smartest people in America?"
(...)
Paulina: "Are you on the list?"
David: "No I'm not".
Priceless.
The joke is that it's a list for smart WOMEN not men .
@@freeyou2000 No. He reads names of men too. 7:35
@@StarHorseLover2012 you re right . I missheard him . I thought he said "smartest women" but he said "smartest ppl" . My bad
Yeah because that list is scientific and actually consists of the 100 smartest people in the US and Paulina really belonged on that list..
She is so smart and articulates herself very well. I really love her personality.
So hilarious, honest and straight forward! She's great!
7:18 "Are YOU on the list?" BOOM !!! That proved why she was on the list. Impressive indeed.
Yeah she's witty. :)
I like that he didn’t comment solely on her looks, sexualizing her the whole time. Good job!
I like her humor too.
Had never actually seen an interview with her. Anyone who can fluster Dave is good in my book. That's rare lol.
I'd only ever seen some photos....and the music video for The Cars' Drive.
And always thought she was inhumanly gorgeous....just beyond captivating and beautiful.

There are several interviews with her on TH-cam, including several recent ones.
She starred in the movie "Her Alibi" with Tom Selleck back in the 80s, that was the first time I saw her, then I read about her being a supermodel and married to Rick Otcasek and I thought what a lucky S.O.B. Turns out he really was a S.O.B.
When I was a teen, I felt so much injustice that there were people looking this good on earth. I feel more relaxed about it now.
Love her attitude, candour and grace. Compared to the way today's celebrities come across, Paulina looks and dresses like royalty.
I miss Letterman, I also miss the days when Supermodels, were SUPERmodels.
I hate Letterman, but there’s nothing like the supermodels of that era ❤️

@@cr-it5lh Letterman is a pompous ass, regardless of what era it is. And I was alive in 86, so your wrong on all counts.
She is unbelievable beautiful. I watched a recent video of her in her 50's and she's still gorgeous. Her husband is a lucky man.
Wow....I'm impressed how smart she was at only 21!!!! I love this woman!
Love her! Grounded, charming and fun.
She's amazing. Same humor as the English...no bull, no fluff just on point and honest.
Nowhere near the extremely sarcastic and indirect english breed. This is an east European attitude. The further east, the more accentuated those qualities are.
My son's father was from her corner of the world ...SAME PERSONALITY .
"my son's father" ouch
Weird way to denote the man you gore a child with. Could be an innocent thing but just odd.
@@MisterMister5893 how else would you say it? "Man I bore a child with" is proper but doesnt exactly roll off the tongue
@@pilarpears2772 “My husband”? Number of more genteel way to phrase it. And I said gore not bore. Haha
Her husband was also Czech lol
Wow for once, Dave isn’t being a CREEP 🙄 and I love her sassiness, sarcasm, and ability to answer honestly!
Notice his hands inching right before the break? Lol. Still a creep
You're the CREEP, Denise.

She can't be more charming. I love you, Paulina.
I have never heard of this woman before, but right out of the gate, i noticed that she was absolutely stunning and had a great personality
People, you’ve got to go see “Anna”. One of my best films of all time. It did win awards. It will totally blow you away.
Unfortunately, it's almost impossible to find it anywhere.
I will try to see it. My grandparents were from czechoslovakia so she made me think about them
It got terrible ratings. Sally Kirkland got nominated for an Academy Award for best actress and she won a Golden Globe.
@@vs52217 It was very well rated at the time (I never saw it, though.)
The movie sucked lol!
She seemed so grounded. Love it ☺️
Anyone missing natural beauty other than me? It's very hard to find someone like her in our time...
Good old letterman can’t deal with strong women , poor little boy

Aweso woman! She's always being very honest about this career. Love her
Look at those shoulder pads. Fashonable in the 80's.
Incredibly beautiful inside out… always liked her.

Love her, and she is just as interesting and real today (and of course still beautiful).
Omg i love her , her sense of humor is so charming
This is actually an incredibly good interview (well, for the interviewee; Letterman didn’t know what to do half the time).
Just saw her recently on some show- still Beautiful!!! I'd definitely hang out with her!!
Paulina is now a gorgeous mature woman.
She is still beautiful now, at 55.
I love her personality.
She has a good head on her shoulders.
Omg can’t believe I didn’t know abt her
Subscribe to her Instagram. U ll be more impressed
imma watching ANTM during this pandemic. Goddam she never change what a beauty
Thank you very much for this upload! And also for your contributions to Bellazon.
1986/7 wow! A lifetime ago.
She is the most beautiful woman in the word !!!
Just saw Thursday for the first time. WOW. She was something else. ❤
She is perfect for me, the face is everything
In 2021 she is still a fine fine woman in soooo many ways
In fairness to Dave the Czech "r" is considered to be the most difficult character in all languages.
it's not the "r", he's stressing the wrong vowel. Should be PorIzkova, not PorizkOva.
So charming and intelligent
Her English is amazing
“Are you on the list?” Damn lmfao

No one knew who she was until 1984. She never modeled in the '70s.
she knew who was interviewing her, thats why she was wearing clothes covering most of her body.
She is a week younger than I am! Always loved her classic Aries personality-blunt as blunt can be! 😍
She's the most humble, intelligent and intriguing woman I've seen so far on this planet.
I love the fact that she is totally up!!!!!

She is naturally beautiful and intelligent when women were not fake everything and wore next to nothing. Never thought I'd say that haha
And a fantastic sense of humour.
Wait, did you see the first 10 seconds of the video?!?!?
Who is fake? You I suppose. Have you seen Paulina’s modeling pictures? She poses nude.
Not everyone is like that there are many women with honor and dignity
She seems genuine. I like her!
Great spirit....
Good the see the Channel is still alive
The hardest part of modeling looks like all the traveling they have to do. It's living out of a suitcase.
People probably mocked and underestimated her often... and they regretted it. Love this woman. What Ric Ocasek did to her was criminal. He left her out of his will. He never deserved her.
Can you imagine how hurt she must have been to hear about this?! They were married for many years and they had two sons.
@@elizabethmcleod246 Terrible! What a jerk.
LOVE her attitude.
And she was never heard from again. 😥
Not sure, but I think hink she did a few things after this interview.
Yes she only did that one movie
Paulina was no bullshit, funny, and loveably dorky. The fact that she’s one of the most beautiful models ever…. is just a plus. This girl put Dave’s ass in complete check. Love it.
She laughed because "that's the plot of every story."
This was HER episode. Awesome.
She was so woke..I fuckin love her
Her outfit is stunning
Very beautiful with charming personality
Her video at 52 brought me here. I can totally see the 52 yr Polina in this video. She is so so cool.
She has an attitude. Most people would be glad to be pretty which opens up many doors for her.
She is very beatiful...
She’s so beautiful I wish I had her body shape so tall !
I hate being tall.
Icon of Muses Paulina.
Drive is one of my greatest admired songs. I never knew that you are in it. Just these days in 22 knew that you and Ric were married.
When I looked for word “Hunk” at Google Translator, I got “he-man” as a synonymous. 🙀🙀🙀
Very wise for that young age and very honest
Wow she’s mature like she’s 30+ very straightforward and funny
Now in her 50s she's more beautiful than ever!
Such a realist, so eloquent, and always, still, a goddess
Perfect woman.
Fabulous
Wow well grounded
I love that she called Lenin a true star.
She Killed it, Model with a Brain
Wow she has so much personality
Letterman's naffo jibes batted into the long grass with ease. Class.
Iconic
For 21, she was mature, and smart, what a fine sense of humor.
i thought she was 27
Really, I found her to be pretentious.
People used to be not stupid immature tiktokers
maybe because she's not american ??
She so Slavic❤️
The moment she began speaking, her beauty increased exponentially.
This comment is beyond golden.
I love Paulina
Yes she is still brilliant speaker
She’s god
And that's how it use to work. The opposite exists so much more so today. 'O MAH GAWD'
she was incredibly mature for a 21 year old, wow.
Yeah, especially her responses about the unimportance of looking after yourself, eating properly and having enough sleep. Very mature, for sure.
good looking with intelligent
people at this age were marrying then and having children (in that order)
Yeah very young
She’s young
