Back in the 80's when John played with Duran Duran, he was the out of this world beautiful. Square jaw, beautiful flawless face, long streaked hair. His height made him stand out and even that lanky effeminate look was sweet then, Sigh.
I vaguely remember this interview. Didn't he get really annoyed with one of the questions Lisa asked? I can't seem to find that portion.I might be thinking of another interview.
Brad pitt is so overrated just another typical hollywood actor, tanned, blue eyes, blond, without those he's just another ordinary guy. John is musician but he is undeniably more beautiful than any leading man in hollywood
buttercup11 Your statement is proven to be true. Scientifically John is one of the most beautiful men in the world using the golden ratio. His face score was 9.17. He even scored 9.43 in his younger years. His score is higher than all his bandmates in duran, even higher than Johnny Depp and Brad Pitt.
This is a great interview! Oh my goodness...his laugh and his smile are to DIE for...and if my smile gets any bigger, my face is going to crack. How awesome that he has the same effect on me 26 years later!! Beautiful man!!
I just watched this for this first time again from when I saw it when it originally aired. I recorded it on vhs back then and probably watched it hundreds of times. My God I loved him and I can see why so many others did too.. he was the perfect package.. talented, ambitious, funny, yet, soft and sexy and absolutely alarmingly stunningly gorgeous!!! Oh John!! You ruined an entire generation of women. No man could ever be as beautiful as you!! But.. so happy he’s clean sober and still with us today and he and Duran still making fantastic music!!!❤️🌟❤️
The one thing that always got me was they concentrated so much on Duran Duran's style what they were wearing and what they looked like I mean I will totally agree they are hot but I think John Taylor is a really goo bassist his bass playing was what really gave the grove to all their songs he should be recognized for his playing in some way he is very talented and handsome at the same time he is the total package:)
The interviewer had him pegged. She apparently did her homework. It was as if she was trying to warn him and call him out on himself. Kinda sad, really. Luckily for him he beat the odds and got clean. Look at him now! Still fantastic, if not better.
It's none of her business to tell him what he should do when a whole lot of other rock stars are worse! He was successful with two bands which he founded. The media was jealous of him and his great looks and he was very underrated by them.
Wow, just think...in 85 he already thought that the band could be lasting as long as the roling stones already did in that time! Talk about confidence!! And I mean that in a very, very good way!
Can't believe they are playing in Skopje! After so many years, I get to see John Taylor in person, here in Macedonia?! Who would have thought? So excited about it Yes, he is still gorgeous and charming.
Non ho mai visto uno sguardo così sexy ed un sorriso così dolce... il giusto equilibrio tra sensualità e finezza. Sono davvero impressionata da quest'uomo così affascinante e talentuoso. Per sempre innamorata di te John... 😍
John has its point though being a popstar is not enough to just have talent. You have to have it all, the look, the charm, charisma, it's the whole package and John has it all. However, if you're musician music is the main thing here, it's the music that you sell, not your look. If you wanna be pretty and looked at then be a model, not a musician because in the end your look will fade and the only thing that lasts is your music. I can't blame John for being so self conscious about his looks. with beautiful face that he has he could easily be a model but john more than just beautiful face, he got some talent too and he should give himself more credit for the talent and the music not just his looks. If I never knew how beautiful he was, looking at him today I wouldnt believe that he was so strikingly beautiful back then. He can't depend on his looks anymore nowadays. Music is the only thing he got left and has to be improved if he still wants to be a rockstar.
I get the feeling that he wasn't doing it all the time. There were times he was sober and lucid. I think it was closer to his 30s when he started using more. Alcohol was his problem around his twenties because he said in interviews after he got sober that in his 20s he did enough alcohol to last him a lifetime. And that he never was in a kind of stupor with alcohol. Also he wasn't the kind of drinker that could straight just drink. He'd have coke and/or ecstasy with his drink. But never in a drunken stupor. He did rehab and has been sober and off drugs since. Such an inspiration to many who suffer the same problem.
it just hit me - how can one group have so much talent with all 4 members being gifted -because they all may have simply loved one song. Peace, Veronica
@@vaughnmonroejr.7122 And the irony is he was making in reply to the comment about him living a hard rock n roll lifestyle. He pulls a face and jokes, "Do I look it?" to which the interviewer replies, "No, not yet - " and he laughs and adds, "' ' But you will!' ". He says it as a joke, but it wasn't too many years after this interview that he was doing cocaine and looked skeletal. The drugs nearly killed him, but at this stage in his life he thought - as so many people in his situation do - "Yeah, but that'll never happen to ME."
@@SarahB1863 Thank you for that comment. I couldn't believe that video later on when he was skeletal and gaunt! I was so scared for him but thankfully he was saved.
John Taylor's youth always makes me smile, because I can't believe that he was so handsome back then. He looks a little bit like Jane Leeves if she became a man.
Interesting interview, as the interviewer - who looks like Pat Benatar - tries to push some unconventional questions through, meeting John's incresing unease. Funny how he's so proud of Power Station, when the album results in pompous AOR American pop rock, while So Red The Rose, although lifeless due to bad production, includes better songs.
Powerstation was amazing. He is amazing with them and Powerstation sold more record and toured. I even liked Andy in it even though I'm not a big fan of his. The other band didn't!
Why do you always infer the Duran members live as closeted homosexuals? The amount of energy one would require to hide such a huge part of one's lifestyle is staggering. Given their ages and political climate in which we're in now, it seems if that if it were true, coming out would prove to be an enormous relief from carrying such a heavy burden.
@@lizloa8350 Don't waste your time on her, clearly she us obsessed with bashing DD. She must be the closeted gay one . And if I may add, I think her elevator doesn't get to the "top floor "🤣
My junior high heart throb.... but never knew he ‘“couldn’t listen to music by an ugly group”....wow... that would have turned me off in a second. Music is for your ears darling... and if it’s great who gives a sh*t what you look like!! Hope he is more humbled these days
Thankfully music turned out differently. Yes, "ugly" people can become successful, and talent matters. He is lucky he has the looks though, because his bass playing and singing is below average.
His bass playing is average?? 😂 What a ridiculous statement. He’s (rightfully) recognized as a fantastic bass player by MANY musicians. Sounds like you’re jealous?

He is very good looking guy and nice guy
This man can play with his hair a thousand times and it falls perfectly around his gorgeous face every time!
I vaguely remember this interview. Didn't he get really annoyed with one of the questions Lisa asked? I can't seem to find that portion.I might be thinking of another interview.
@@judyb1539 Maybe they edited it out if he got obviously annoyed.
There is a part 1 to this video, maybe it's in that portion?
Seriously, I just can't name even one person that is more beautiful than this man.
Brad Pitt? Johny Depp?
NO, not even close.
you are absolutely right.. no one is as gorgeous as John Taylor. So charming
You are correct...no one.
Brad pitt is so overrated just another typical hollywood actor, tanned, blue eyes, blond, without those he's just another ordinary guy. John is musician but he is undeniably more beautiful than any leading man in hollywood
c c well you have never seen my sexy features sooo..

100 agreed with what you said. He is simply PERFECT 🥰 💞 😍
I was obsessed with this gorgeous man in elementary school. Looking back now it’s easy to understand why! My goodness he’s breathtaking.
I could look at John everyday and never get bored of his attractiveness😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
💯❤️💯❤️
awww John
Seeing John here reminds me so much of why I was totally besotted by him in the 80's! He was an still is gorgeous!

He was pretty then and is still gorgeous at 62. And a heck of a bass player.
NYC 1980s was the best!
JOHN GORGEOUS LOVE
probably as handsome as an angel ..............
This one made my cells scream...it was fantastic.
So sexy how he flipped his hair back
John Taylor made playing bass sexy!
😻❤️🔥🥰💘💔💞🔥 Literally the most beautiful man ever.
he is so gorgeous! I love him!

I would LOVE to play with his hair too ;)
My First Heartthrob Crush Ever N Forever John Taylor ♥️ I STILL LOVE YOU 😍 😘💋♥️
I still love him to this day!
Imagine they were in their 20s in 1985. So well spoken, humble and overall beautiful people inside and out. Always loved Duran. Always.
Thanks for posting this video...I use to have this interview, but the tape was lost by a cousin....grrrrr! He STILL MELTS MY BUTTA!

Well done!!! I absolutly agreed 👏 👏 👏
He's still hot to me!
The way he responded ‘yeah’ so shily yet confidently when she asked if he were a millionaire. My heart skipped a beat. He’s so charming
2023 y aún me sigue encantrando ❤
Divine
JT is so good looking and I love his long hair
my hair used to be like that when I was in high school..30 years ago 🙄
It's the HAIR! Love it!!
Too short, i need more of this!! But this one 'I could never buy a record by an ugly band'. lmao!! I appreciate this youthful honesty of john😅😂
John Taylor is Brian May of Duran Duran
He is so HOTT
Ow....
La forma en que toma su pelo , en la que ríe y como mira , es sencillamente delicioso .
he doesn't look too badly coked here, this is one of the few that he's normal.

My favorite JT interview of all time.
Uff tan bello!
Aww he's so cute~
Damn he was so beautiful and sexy
JT's face at 1:21 just so adorable in a funny way!
John handled the intrusive STOOPID questions with class!!!!!❤❤❤❤
Conclusión...Es un precioso!!!
it just hit me - how can one group have so much talent with all 4 members being gifted -because they all may have simply loved one song.

Gorgeous!
John Taylor always makes these weird faces lol (he's so attractive)
Best 1:21

Love your accent
This man can handle his coke. That was pretty good. Excellent bass player too!
Wow
did you notice that in a J.T. video the top comments are by girls

SO CUTE.... BUT IS A BAND THAT ARE UGLY COULD HAVE A GREAT SONG... DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY THE COVER????
Pretty, but shallow. No surprises there.
