#MinnieDriver #CelebrityInterviews #Entertainment
She was one of my first celebrity crush’s. Her accent. Her face. Her big grin. Her goofiness. Her hair. She’s beautiful.
No apostrophe is used in pluralizing words. *Crushes
She seems incredibly self aware and calm, really love her energy and vibes.
Did this woman actually get even more beautiful as she aged? She is stunning
I think women usually become more attractive in their 40's and 50's than before.
i know right. she is stunning. the sparkle in her eyes is amazing.
She’s had plenty of help. All celebrities do.
@@j.b.9260nope
I agree
Minnie Driver has always been one of my favorites. I think it's because her heart shines through everything she does. She is lovely, talented and I wish her success...I think best is yet to come for her.
She was at the Met Gala and they eat dishes with pedophilia themes..It's absolutely horrid and shocking how anyone can participate in it..She was there and so many other stars were in some pictures taken from what went on after what the public sees..People in hollywood aren't who they appear to be to the public..
Hi Fred thanks for the lovely comment on my Post feel free to text me back
@@souldesire5932 Yes, I understand you saw pictures. The other day I saw pictures of you doing some horrid things. It must be true, I saw the pictures...
@@tinafranco338 Why do youtube comments seem so often like people just fail to actually think before they respond..Only difference is that you can't prove and show those pictures and I can, because it's literally in a video..And I don't make things up. There is a video that anyone can see..I can produce objective evidence and you can't, big difference..Now please humble yourself, I'm not saying things for no reason..
@@souldesire5932 I never cease to be amazed by the fact that people are on the Internet, but don't bother to check out whether what they're saying is actually true, and even when they're told what they're saying is wrong, they will STILL stubbornly stick to their story.
I don't mean to be political - I'm not American and I don't live there - but to me, as an external observer, this was possibly the most damaging long term aspect of Donald Trump's Presidency; that he taught people to just double down and stick to a lie - or whatever falsehood they are claiming - and just label reality "fake news" and "alternate facts".
Everyone is entitled to their opinion - they always have been - but nowadays people mistakenly believe that makes their opinion valid, and that all opinions are equal, when they obviously aren't. You are entitled to believe that white is black, or that 1 + 2 = 5, but neither of those opinions it valid, or equal, and both of them are wrong; demonstrably so.
It's just bizarre to me that we all walk around with a computer in our pockets which can instantly access most of human knowledge - something which you would think would have taken us to a new level - but instead there are people who are more ignorant than ever walking around...
Wow, she doesn't age. More importantly, she's so incredibly gracious. Just a breath of fresh air. Genuine, beautiful and entertaining. I wish I could see her in more things!
Massive Botox she’s on her 50s
It is Botox and filler. But it makes her look beautiful. It doesn't work for everyone.
@@hopefulforhumanity5625 it’s just a blank face innit. That’s not beautiful to me, all her natural beauty is erased...apart from the teeth, why do people never touch them? *Shudder
A lot of make up
@@Belfastboi mm mmm mm🎉🎉
I love her line "I wrote my way through it". She is so sincere and charming. Minnie shows us writing can be very theraputic.
Underrated actress! Her role in Grosse Pointe Blank is my favorite!
So true and vastly underrated.
yes and hard rain. another underrated film
Absolutely - one of my fav movies anyway but her and the Cusaks take it to another level
She is such a kind person. So humble and gracious.
She is right about what her dad said, be in the moment holding your dad's hand. That's more important than any award!!! 😇😇
She’s always seems like such a classy lady. I’ve loved her since Good Will Hunting.
5:00 there isn’t a better example of someone living through you. I felt this.
Her singing the sing “ Beloved” is one of my all time favorites!
She is beautiful work or no work, who cares. She is a great actress and a warm human being! Love her!
Hi Beverly, how are you?
Warm human being..She was at the Met Gala and they ate dishes with pedophilia themes..with some other grotesque, absolutely disgusting things going on..It's absolutely horrid and shocking how anyone can participate in it..She was there and so many other stars were in some pictures taken from what went on after what the public sees..
Lovely lady, so talented,also loved her in Will and Grace.I will watch anything with Minnie Driver.
What a great outlook & title for a book. Managing expectations & more specifically lowering expectations is what life is all about. The sooner you figure this out, the better your life will be.
Admire her so- not because she's an actress, but her strength in general.
Just finished reading Minnie's book - 5* review all the way :) Love this lady.
She’s a brilliant actress and speaks so well.
She’s actually getting more beautiful ❤️👍🏼
I love Minnie Driver's singing! Human (cover song) from her album Ask Me to Dance is lovely.
She is such a class act, and a good person. Keep writing. Most writers, such as myself, will be dead before my work is known.. Never stop writing, no matter what.
shes from the U.K people are very gracious kind and humble there. God bless Minnie she is truly the greatest.
Loved her in Sleepers.
She's just such a class act!
This was beautiful - she’s charming! And the interviewers great too - they let her talk and cheered her on.
Minnie is still so beautiful, sweet and wise, just like her role in Good Will Hunting. A classy lady!❤
0:43 I couldn't agree with you more about the word "expectations".
Absolutely love Minnie Driver! Heavy hitter, yet Hollywood outsider. She is sooo unique! Remember “Grosse Point Blank”, Return to Me”, and of course, “Circle of Friends”. She is amazing! A project with Mindy Kaling could be an amazing formula.
The Governess🥰
Grosse Point Blank was pretty funny
Return to me is grrrrreat😊
Excited to read her book! She lived forever in a trailer park in Malibu because she loved to surf and had quick access to the ocean. Her small community there knew she was just a regular person and let her be. I believe she still has that trailer, way more decked out as a second home.
I watched a Feb. episode of the Graham Norton Show and Courtney Cox & Minnie were among the guests. Courtney mentioned that they were neighbors and Minnie said that Courtney lives in a proper star's house while she lives in a mobile home community. So, as recent as February she was still there. She mentioned it was right on the ocean
It' a rich person's mobile home community, lots of celebs have them in Malibu - it's not like it's a trailer park!
@@Gogs126still, even expensive trailers aren’t mansions😅
She’s so amazing…. very real, beautiful, talented, accomplished, and a loving mother. Can’t wait to read her book.
Sure about that? She was at the Met Gala and they eat dishes with pedophilia themes..It's absolutely horrid and shocking how anyone can participate in it..She was there and so many other stars were in some pictures taken from what went on after what the public sees..
Beautiful?
@borivojetravica569 yea man she's beautiful and definitely a keeper
I have always loved her....ever since Circle of Friends, the best movie!!!
Minnie is such a beautiful and talented woman. Stay blessed! 🙏
The always Beautiful inside and out -Minnie Driver definitely seems wise and to be a deep person of great insight. My Heart goes out to her that she lost ger Mom😔. Very sorry to hear that. And it kind of propelled her to keep writing through the pain of her loss. Very familiar as I did that too. "Return to Me" is one of my absolute favorite movies, and she is so great in "Goodwill Hunting", too!🏆 There is always the possibility that Minnie is far too busy living her life and choosing her film roles with precision. Brave Onwards Minnie! You are Amazing🌺💪💐 Wild Irish Blessings to you 🍀 ~
She just gets more beautiful with age. What a gorgeous lady💕
Beautiful beautiful story about her dad and she still looks so beautiful, young and healthy - lovely honest direct person.
Minnie Driver is just a delightful human being
I love her book "Managing Expectations". She expresses herself so eloquently, vividly, and adds a bit of humor as well. I'm usually reading physical books but this time, I wanted to hear it in her own voice. It was a good choice, as it sounds wonderful this way; definitely her acting skills brought the book to another level. I highly recommend her memoir, especially the audiobook format!
Yes, we'll said... The Today cast should listen to her and not make assumptions about her father it was out of love, he said; she wasn't going to win, but you're already a winner to him. The Today cast ought to be ashamed of themselves trying to perverse her to say something that was clearly hurtful towards her father she loved. She outshined the Today show rubbish hosts. Beautifully said
@@Harvard_of_the_Sky Yes, I agree that Minnie handled the interview very well -- I wish I had half her public speaking skills. I also think that her father was inspired in that moment at the Oscar's to tell her she wouldn't win, so that the could compose herself in front of the cameras. As she described the atmosphere at the event, a cameraman was pretty much in her face waiting for a reaction, preferably a dramatic one. So she didn't give him that satisfaction. :)
Thank You for the suggestion.....never been one to want or even care to LISTEN to a book....
Minnie is absolutely delightful - always
She's so even keeled as opposed to hyper-caffeinated tv hosts who tend to talk over people. It is so refreshing to listen to Minnie Driver. She's a woman of substance yet fun. The pic of her with her mother was so endearing. Proud mama.
that's the American vs British thing. Americans are always so hyper while Brits are more composed.
@@juliad368 Minnie's manner of speaking not only draws you in, it's humanizing as well. She's the real deal. Endearing. It would have been fun had she compared kayaking on the Hudson to kayaking on the Thames. lol
This girl never aged, she looks the same since Good Will Hunting. Wow that's amazing!
Can you say, "Facelift?" I must say, it's a really good one, she looks fantastic.
Natural beauty
So is matt damon , robin williams not so much
I love her in movies and tv roles. She’s fantastic!
Oh yeah what a great actress Minnie driver and her book!
Such a wonderful lady !
I love this woman in speechless and will & grace! She's hilarious!!!!
Her My Beloved is one of my favorite songs.
hadn't known her before. so much depth.
Circle of Friends. I can't seem to find that movie on streaming anywhere
Minnie is pure class
I was so impressed with her performance in good Will Hunting. Truly epic.
My fav is with David Duchovny, “Return to Me”. She is an amazing in depth actor and person.
mine too.
I absolutely adore that film and have seen it many times. Too bad it didn't find a bigger audience.
@@deborahblackvideoediting8697 it found us. Positive thoughts and energy to you!
That's a lovely movie
@@Fiawordweaver - That's a lovely thought! I haven't seen it in a while, time to pull out my dvd and watch it again. All the best! :)
I have always liked Minnie driver as a actress and a person she seems like such a great kind human being ❤❤❤❤❤
Likeable in every sense of the word. Smart and beautiful too. Her performance in "Grosse Pointe Blank" was perfect!
She is great. Thanks
Such a good interview hope to read the book.
What a beautiful soul.
She is a good person. Even though Matt Damon treated her badly, she is being very generous talking about him. She is a beautiful lady
Sure about that? She was at the Met Gala and they eat dishes with pedophilia themes..It's absolutely horrid and shocking how anyone can participate in it..She was there and so many other stars were in some pictures taken from what went on after what the public sees..
I heard Matt Damon dumped her on TV show! He didn't even have the courtesy to say it in front of her directly. But well, the important thing is Minnie is happy & settled now.
Funny how women can dump or ignore 100 men, without even batting an eye. But one man breaks up with her and it’s the end of the world.
The victim culture is alive and well in America.
@@kevinreily2529 it seems like you have the victim mentality. It’s hard to break that weak pattern but it’s best you do, or you’ll never see anything clearly. She choose to speak about the situation gracefully without placing blame on anyone but the situation they were both in.
That does not surprise me at all. I never liked that guy.
I absolutely LOVE this woman.
She is a very beautiful lady who looks like she hasn’t aged a bit in her life. She seems to have a very sweet personality. Maybe we will see her soon in another movie.
She basically crashed and burned after some big hits.
Recently saw her in the series (Who Do You Think You Are?) where she is looking for answers to her father's family. Very good!
Great interview, interested in the book now. Loved the part about her mum and her dad at the Oscars. Whenever I see her I just think, Will you still love me tomorrow? I loved that movie and watched it endlessly.
I'm impressed by this whole conversation. It's quite profound about her way of looking at life. She's a very wise girl.
Oh and so so beautiful too 😯😍
she is a 52 year old woman not girl. rarely does a 52 man is ever get called a boy
My gosh what a story that reminds me of my own. I was with my mom for almost 6 weeks before she died of cancer. I had to return home for 5 days I told her I'd be back and she died on the 5th day 2 hours before my arrival.
She's amazing. Loved Circle of Friends.
She looks AMAZING!
Hey great job talking over her really great hosting
She looks beautiful! And she seems to be such a kind sweet woman, ... Obviously with important life lessons 🙏
Love Minnie , sorry her mom passed, 🌹
Daymn haven't seen her in YEARS. Was instantly expecting something different but not this GOOD and vibrant! Wow. IF she did anything always, always *subtle is IT. Tbh she's vibing better now than in the most of the 90s/early 00s! 🤩
I loved her in Phantom of the Opera. She was great!
I loved her in Beautiful, it was one of my favourite movies as a child.
She’s all touched up
I now want to read her book!
Minnie Driver is so beautiful. She is talented and awesome
All that AND a great singer too.
Her role on Will and Grace and back and forth with Karen is still my favorite part that she did.
Because she has attacked him online for silly things.
@@Strawn149 what???
Me too!
Same👍
@@Rheinmeister09 Must have been a drunk rambling message
wow she looks great!
LIFE IS TO LOVE AND TO BE LOVED 💘 ONLY LOVE CAN CONQUER THE WORLD
Great interview! Minnie seems like a quality person
She is one of those actresses who achieved some fame, but apparently didn't get the quality scripts that her beauty and talent deserved. I'd love to see her get parts now!
The thing is - she is beautiful but she wasn't the 10-level beautiful you need to get those lead parts back in the day. I saw her complain about this before and I was thinking "well you were getting parts over less good looking actresses yourself". That's how it works or worked in that industry. It's the same for men. I mean no skinny guy is going to get an Arnie role
I always felt her role on will and grace was beneath her. She is truly lovely.
She seems so lovely.
Class, Beauty,Talent!❤
Such a lovely humble person I love Minnie Driver !
Minnie Driver has such a pleasant voice. Smooth and soft with none of that vocal fry nonsense.
Her television show "Speechless" was one of the best shows ever! Right up there with Ted Lasso and Shrinking. Unfortunately, it somehow got lost is the clutter.
I hope she wrote about the times we used to have at Habour Lights in Barbados. I loved flying there to hang out. She has not aged at all!!!
a very sweet and down to earth girl.
What a genuine person. Her stock went way up for me.
She looks incredible ❤
Great in Circle of friends and her role on Will and Grace
For me, it's Grosse Point Blank. One of my favourite movies.
She's a good actress and a lovely person.
What a stunning woman. Beautiful inside and out.
Love, love, love her!!!!! :))
She looks prettier now than ever.
Minnie Driver, you sound and look Great!😊
She is so great on the show Starstruck! Wonderful show!
What an amazing woman.
I watched several ancestry clips as she sought answers. Very...relatable. i could be wrong...but she seems like a friend everyone wants
She looks Amazing 😻
She’s amazing, my daughters wanted me to marry her back in the day. I told them that I didn’t know Minnie, so probably not gonna happen. They told me to go meet her!!
