Billy Crystal on Hostless Oscars, New Movie & Driving Test
• Billy Crystal on Hostl...
The world needs more Billy Crystal.
He has incredible timing, and he's an incredible human being.
What do you mean by timing ?
shotiCko comic timing
nino f Nah, that would be trump. LMFAO
@@blondelebanese9922 lmao very true
“I play a pot smoking, alcoholic dermatologist.. which was very difficult for me because I’m not a dermatologist.” Lmfaoo I love it
He is a national treasure. What a wonderful man!!!!♥️🙋
Gosh, Billy is the best 😂♥️
Laughing so hard right now. I think I am that! And I didn't get the dermatologist part. Thank you!
Absolutely perfect delivery. A master
I feel like I havent seen Billy Crystal for so long but man it put a smile on my face to hear him and see him again.
Thank you for not cutting this up into a million videos. This is a nice interview.
always bothers me when they do that too. I don't need three separate videos of your chat with Andy Samberg, just give me the one!
It really is.
Best Oscar host ever. Wish he could host it one more time.
Possibly, he is very funny and clever still.
He truly was the best host of all, he is hilarious.
linda ackerman: I agree. I loved the years that he hosted, he is the ultimate all around entertainer.
@@mercurymaiden2389 you are so right mercury.😊 cant wait to see his movie, Ive been waiting forever for him to make a new movie.
babilabub I want to see him host many more times, I’d also love to see Hugh Jackman host again.
One of the most brilliant comics that ever lived.
This dude is amazing...it's no wonder he's been married almost 50 years: such an authentically funny person, in the same mold as Martin Short :-)
Martin Short is still a great live performance to see. Too funny and he is clever.
Sadly, Martin Short who also had a wonderful long marriage with his wife Nancy, who he loved so much, lost her to cancer a number of years ago. But Martin Short is so incredibly funny as well.
Billy is sharp as ever.. 👏🏼👏🏼
Billy is as sharp as he's ever been. Comedic gold. Why the heck doesn't the Oscars call him up?
My understanding is that it was his decision many years ago not to host anymore.
they should ! he was so much fun to watch'; Crystal still has that great comedic timing.. Billy was cool to see with Whoopi Goldberg and the late Robin Williams, for those annual "Comic Relief" fundraising HBO specials (to help the homeless communities).
Frightened of a few home truths probably, as per Ricky Gervais..
Hollyweird!
Prince Andrew joke! 😂
@@citizen1163 The people in the room don't care. It's the people at home that get riled up.
Exactly. He Sshould Be On The Oscars Speed-Dial List.
Holy crap - 71 years old and looks amazing. I guess laughter IS the best medicine....!!
I always loved when he would open the Oscars, by showing up in clips from the various films.
My favorite part as a kid.
love billy crystal's stories and his perfect comedic timing... truly one of the greats.. kudos to you and your wife of 50 years.. ours is next year :)
Every time I see Billy Crystal I don't want it to end. This guy is a legend because he is a legend.
Billy Crystal just naturally funny. Has always been one of the best - hilarious!
I hadn't seen him in years. The gray hair, beard, I hardly recognized him UNTIL he started his stories. He looks marvelous!
the Fernando character from "SNL" back in the 1980's.
Billy is so articulate and wise. Such a smart man. Definitely don't see enough of him lately.
Search his name and view anytime.
Every time I see him he will always remind me of soap.over 40 years of laughter.thank you Mr.Crystal.
Billy is the best Oscar host ever! With him, the films and the legend of Hollywood were celebrated in the old style, with a lot of class and respect.
Every now and then, I still watch When Harry Meet Sally
Yes, and The Princess Bride
And city slickers!
When Harry Met Sally wasn't too bad either.
I want exactly the same she had... 😁😁😁
@@rejoyce318 princess bride was just a great movie... i havnt seen it for awhile.. gonna check it out again.. thx.
Being married for 50 year is impressive, especially for a celebrity.
And to the same wife :)
@@aacaballa This deserves more thumbs up. Kudos😂
@@aacaballa *rimshot*
Love me some Billy Crystal! PLEASE do the Oscars again, Billy! We NEED you!
Billy was the best Oscar host, imo.
OnceInABlueMoon Hands down. He did the best opening monologues which often included pre-filmed parodies of classic and new movies. He’s a legend!
The year he hosted ,when the lord of the rings won all 11 categories.
Man, he spoofed all those movies so well....he is the best
I laughed so hard, that was the best Oscars, so hilarious, so good
Hes the Oscar Host GOAT
@ for reals yes
Is it his choice not to host it again? I also think he's amazing and wish he was hosting it.
omg he is still funny - laughed the whole length of this vid - the best Billy Crystal
"So help me, so help me..."
Sorry, my kids love Monsters Inc. But Billy is a true legend. Class act and one of the funniest people on earth. '61' is still my favorite baseball movie.
Are there any other movies you know of? Thanks
Crystal is a class act and one of these funniest humans on the planet.
3:27 - I like how he briefly turns to Jimmy and says, "OUR friend Warren Beatty." Subtle sarcasm.
Billy is brilliant! Always was. He's living American comedic history.
I would watch Billy Crystal anytime, anywhere, he is an American Treasure.
50 years married in Hollywood, deserves an Oscar for services to humanity!!!
I think I'm getting more enjoyment from Jimmy laughing at Billy, than the interview itself! I don't think I've ever heard him laugh that hard.
Billy Crystal has always been one of my favorites. His Oscar medleys were the best!
I remember most of his jokes on the Oscar stage. Including that silent film jab. Coming out as Hannibal Lecter is still a highlight for me.
It’s so relaxing watching him. He’s so grounded in himself.
Billy is ageless and a comedic legend. One of the best!! I love how he and Jimmy are friends... great mentor ship
*"We've hosted between the two of us the Oscars 11 times"* the best compliment Kimmel could get 😂
Fabulous. Thank you - both Billy C & Jimmy K. My whole mood has changed- for the better!
He honestly looks great for his age.
Absolutely, I thought the same exact thing.
Botox
Yeah, he doesn't yet look like Miracle Max! LOL
he's def had work done but yeah it's great to see him looking good and he used a good surgeon or three :)
@@PositiveLastAction He's definitely had some work done. But it's good work, subtle unlike say...Kenny Rogers. Plus it's about more than his looks. His energy, his movement, how he speaks. His over-all demeanor is NOT a 72 year old man, even without the work done.
Still funnier than most other Oscar hosts we've endured since him.
ozvoyager Kimmel; not funny and unappealing.
Funnier than most since him???!!! Funnier than all...completely.
I love Jimmy Kimmel's humour as well. Always a good laugh.
He’s a pure legend!
Billy is like a very good wine. He gets better with age.
Agreed 👍
Best host ever...prefer a host but still watching tonight as I haven't missed the Oscars since 1968.
Nice to see Billy without dark hair..embrace the grey!
OLD school gent. Last of the few. Imagine Him and Robin and Whoppie having dinner together. what fun they must have had
I just love this guy so much! Can't wait for his new movies! Billy, you look amazing! And congrats on your 50-year wedding anniversary! You're the real deal!
I love how Billy Crystal Bridges the old school comics into the new. He still so sharp and witty, but his vibe has that retro touch to it.
Yeah, really good at that. People like him are good at improv comedy.
Say WhatNah - yes- agreed
Billy had the retro vibe when he was young as well.
singtweetypie Yeah, I believe you’re right.
Give Billy a presidential medal of freedom. Legend.
Dave E DelusionalDonnie would never give a wonderful,decent man like Billy the medal!Didn’t you see who he gave the medal to on Tuesday at the State of the Union speech- acigarette smoking, race baiting, misogynistic, racist, suck - a- xenophobia- Rush Limbaugh because he’s dying of lung cancer he brought upon himself by smoking! Rush Limbaugh! It might as well have been Putin himself! Trump only rewards those people who are his attack dogs against others ! He could have recognized Kobe as a philanthropic supporter of Make-A_-Wish and role model to so many, but with the Trumptard, good guys don’t count . Next , Demented Donnie will give Moscow Mitch a medal! Criminals stick together.
Connie Crawford Yeah, that was shocking that he gave that medal to Rush. Even for Trump that was surprising.
assmane999 I agree with you that that was shocking, but I am not shocked by anything that the delusional president does anymore. I’m waiting for all the Russians to start getting Medals Of Freedom .
Connie Crawford You’re right. At this point it’s silly of me to expect anything less than the totally unmitigated train-wreck that has been this administration. God help you Americans and every other nation affected by this senile old coot with his finger on the button.
Connie Crawford BTW: He will get re-elected. If he can rig one election, he can rig 2, especially with the republicans in power this time.
OH GOD WE MISS YOU BILLY !!
“It’s called a prince Andrew” I Fucken died I love u billy
I can't get enough of this!!!!
🤣🤣🤣😅😂😂
Jimmy's laugter is so contagious!!
😂😂👍👍
I just watched When Harry Met Sally... last night! Such a gem of a movie all these years later!
4:12 that adorable laugh reminded me of the great late Robin Williams :)
Same! I heard it too!
I'm so sentimental... I adore him. Years of admiration. ♥️ " A trial without witnesses " 🎯
How I love Billy Crystal. I could listen to him for hours.
Let’s be honest Billy was the Oscars they’ve never been the same without him
Billy Crystal IS The Oscars.
Was nice to see this. Good to see he's doing well and to see he's still more than got it.
it's fitting because he got his start in silent films .... LOLOL... brilliant. remember humour that didn't rely on insults and shock? brilliant.
OH MY God "what do you call pushing 60 in a school zone" a prince andrew I am ON THE FLOORNLOLOLOL
The world is a better place with Billy Crystal ❤️
Loved watching Billy Crystal ever since Soap in the late seventies.
He's so great on talk shows.
I always love to see him told a story
I've been sleeping on Billy Crystal unfortunately. This man is freaking hilarious!😂👏🏼 I also dig that he smokes the herb too! Lol😁
Perfect timing everytime. He’s naturally funny and one of my favorite Oscars host.
He is and always will be the very best host the Oscar's has ever had with know one even coming a close second. Watch his oscar host performances on You Tube right now.
He does look fabulous
I wish I had a friend like Billy!! So effortlessly funny!!
Adore Crystal! Why can’t he host every year! He’s always been the best host! This hostless stuff, is just wrong and sad....
Hillarious.. classical Billy Crystal. He can make a whole show about spilling a glass of water.
Billy Crystal is class, sheer class. Treasure him America.
If Billy Crystal were to host the Oscars tomorrow, I would actually have a reason to watch them.
Great energy and humour for a 70 year old. Billy Crystal is a legend
“which is like a trial without witnesses” golden
I would love to see him do stand up again. The man is truly an American Treasure.
Oh man, how hard I laughed at the Hal Roach thing!! 😂😂
I saw it. It was SOOO awkward.
Yes Billy Crystal I loved his Hal roach story
I only watched the Oscars for the hosts.
Francis Srečko Fabian Poor excuse. That’s why the ratings were going down, because the hosts like Jimmy Kimmel would always bring up politics and things about nature that needed never to be brought up...
@@davidallen7774 Some of us weren't that sensitive that hearing about politics made us fragile little snowflakes. Oscar hosts have always poked fun at the president and politics. It's nothing new. But Trump supporters are more sensitive it seems...
Josh V Says you... lol Not always have they done that, my friend! I hate to burst your bubble!
Same. No qualms about skipping the show now.
What else?
I wish Billy would host the Oscars again. He’s the best
I love this man. Such a gifted actor. Like someone you'd want as a friend. And I've gotta say. He's aging quite nicley💕
Going natural was the best decision for him. All that black hair dye and what ever he was doing to his face was just making him looks fake. He looks great here.
Good interview! Nice to see Billy's still goin strong.
It was nice to see Billy again, and yes, it would be great to have him back at the oscars.
Billy's laugh at around the 4:12 mark is the biggest and most authentic laugh I have ever heard from him. LOVE IT!!
The greatest storyteller of all time. So entertaining!
Awww it was great seeing Billy Crystal, thanks for making me laugh.
Billy, finally we have a test we can give voters to see if they're competent enough to vote.
Billy would be a great guy to hang out with very funny
nick panico Groucho Marx would’ve been much better as a host, but I don’t think Hollywood nowadays would really handle him because we live in much a millennial age and everyone gets offended by a lot of things, unfortunately!
Thought the exact same thing!
Wow, he's only gotten better after the 40 years I've been around to see him. 💯
A man who comes prepared. This was a very nice, long, authentic and funny video.
Have loved his career since the days of Soap forward. One of my all-time favorite entertainers and people
I love Billy. Such a great comedian with such quick wit that he delivers with warmth. You can tell how much he loves to entertain after all these years. The Oscars need him again!
Billy Cristal is still NUMERO UNO!!!!
SO glad to see you Bill!!
Thank youso much for so many amazing Oscar hosting!!
Seriously, one of the bessssst episode..
I love Billy so much
Always love Jimmy's laugh!
Damn. Billy Crystal is amazing, always nails it. A shame he won't host the Oscars again.
Billy, u are my hero! Humble, funny and a great suit 👊🏻 keep on doing what u are best at...being u! ♥️ louise from Stockholm
Here are some ways to connect Billy to Kevin Bacon:
1. Billy Crystal was in When Harry Met Sally with Meg Ryan, who was in Sleepless in Seattle with Tom Hanks, who was in Apollo 13 with Kevin Bacon.
2. Billy Crystal was in Analyze This with Robert De Niro, who was in Sleepers with Kevin Bacon.
3. Billy Crystal was in Throw Momma from the Train with Danny Devito, who was in Ruthless People with Judge Reinhold, who was in Fast Times at Ridgemont High with Sean Penn, who was in Mystic River with Kevin Bacon.
There might be others, but those are just 3.
Billy looks amazing! I recall last time a saw him hosting the Oscars, he looked way older and heavier. Looks great now. Crazy!
Absolutely love Billy Crystal! One of the greats!
When taking a selfie while driving, should you use the portrait mode 😂
Who would dislike this ??? He kept knocking it out of the park - every. Single. Time !!!
