Always loved Alice Cooper I have an album of his from way back in the day it was one of the first one's my mum purchased and she loved him as well. He seems like a genuinely great person and if everyone could realise whether it's artists comedians and plenty of other situations that the sentiment is true of so many maybe we would all get along better.
I saw Alice Cooper back in like 2007 just sitting outside by himself having coffee at Pelican Hill Golf Course in SOCAL! Me and my friend just walked up to say hi and tell him we were huge fans and Alice could not have been more friendly! He immediately set his newspaper aside and thanked us for being fans. He spoke about playing in a pro am and just small talk for a bit. We went on our way with Alice Cooper telling us “Have a great day out there boys!” Great dude!
@mauimeowi Alice Cooper is his performer name, sort of like a nickname. If somebody met the lead singer of Manowar on a shop, they would address him as Eric Adams, not Louis Marullo, which is his real name. The same goes with Ozzy, Dee Snider, Sebastian Bach, Marilyn Manson and many others.
My mom checked he and his family out at a grocery store in Lenexa, KS. She had no idea who he was at the time. Her words, he had the nicest family and a beautiful wife. He was such a courteous man

My favorite rock star of all time. Decent man, great rock star, great husband great role mode and gives back to the community so much. Survivor, innovator and I’ve literally never known a more humble man who influenced so many. King Alice!!!!!
Wow that is the first time I have seen young Alice without makeup! He was extremely handsome. I grew up on his music, never ever saw him out of character until he was way older.
@@hayleystratus7713 That is Vincent Damon Furnier whose stage name is Alice Cooper. He is a popular rock music performer/entertainer who got started back in the mid-1970s. He's pretty cool and interesting to watch if you want to look up some of his stuff here on TH-cam.
He looks better like this without the thick black around his eyes and here I think he just has a little bit of brown powder under his eyes sort of to give him some kind of a border but it looks better than the thick black stuff ... much more attractive
He used to shop at a sporting goods store I worked at many years ago. Loved to look at all the golf equipment. We had a standing rule not to bother him beyond how a normal customer would be treated. He was always so polite and kind with everyone. Confirmed nice guy that Alice.
I used to see Alice all the time at my golf club back in the late 90’s/early 2000’s. I played golf with him a few times as he’s a golf fanatic! He’s also extremely smart and well read. He reiterated this point about playing a part on stage which was evident to who he truly is as a person. Fascinating guy
Living in AZ. So many people I know have a story about Alice Cooper. I have never heard anything negative ever about him. In fact I’ve always heard he’s super friendly and a great man!! Word of mouth means so much and his reputation is stellar.
Met Alice and his wife at their restaurant in phoenix back in like 05-06ish. First, it was a baseball themed restaurant, kinda weird for a “crazed devil worshipping rock star”. Second, he and his wife were some of the sweetest people Ive ever met at the time.
@@Be_An_EstherOh stop, lol. If I didn’t see the clip myself and someone said “That time Alice Cooper had a mustache”, I would have thought they were full of shit.
It’s amazing… I’ve always loved Alice Cooper and I’ve always known that he was different personas… But in this interview, he reminds me of Chris Cornell… And I think that Layne Staley really took a lot of Alice Cooper’s vocals and attitude on stage without all the gimmick… Alice Cooper rules always always will.
Him and his family once were clients in an ice cream store that I had.. they had a prepaid account and his checks were the Looney Tunes like Bugs Bunny and Tweety Bird. I always got a kick out of that…. Amazing family.!
Alice Cooper is one of the sweetest man on earth.He is really witty and never negative. He also adores his wife.🙏 God Bless You .I❤ You Alice Cooper.You rock 🎤🎸🥁🤟💋
I met him at the Biltmore hotel in Providence RI when he was touring with Megadeth, the nightmare returns tour,...86 I think,.... he signed all our stuff and talked with us for a while,..... I had a great conversation with him about the first two albums and his work with Frank Zappa,..... and I asked him about him playing golf with Nixon..... such a cool guy,.....he sincerely enjoyed talking with us
For years and years the media always trying to make out Alice Cooper is something that his not. Failing to really see who his always been. A great guy with a great sence of humour and a caring family man.
I saw Alice at the Hollywood Palladium when Love it to Death was out...I was 18...the show was awesome... Killer tour...boa, sword, braided armpits, guillotine...monster rock band classic early hard rock...long haired band...they crushed it...oddly, Howling Wolf was the opener...
This is what people need to do know is break down for those who don't have the intellilec to decern fantasy from reality. Show business of any kind is not real. Thank you Coop for addressing this problem. He is also a born again Christian, what a stand up guy.
There is a fine line between evil imaginations and acting them out. The thought needs to be conceived first. How violent am I right now? Such a dumb question. Even Satan can come disguised as an angel of light.
Met Vince at a comic - convention. I'm no giant at 5' 11". I was SHOCKED at how SMALL , and how OLD , Mr. FOURNIER is. Nice guy though. Hes right up there with Frank Zappa as shockingly small people. Never got to speak to Zappa though -- but I was told he was a "good shit".
I bought his Billion Dollar Babies album when it was released in 1973. Some good music and also some very weird stuff, too. Still have it great album cover and materials. That was important back in the day.
A friend of mine was his road manager in '86. He is still good friends. He says Alice is awesome and so is his wife. I got a quick tour of his tour bus. They had very strict rules that no drugs or alcohol were allowed. I can't say I love his horror persona, but he is a good guy. It's a gimmick to sell tickets and records. Gotta love him for giving children everywhere a song to sing on the bus on the last day of school.
When I worked in Hollywood, attended a four square church in Eagle Rock. One of its members was none other than Alice Cooper. Very cool, down to earth, humble guy. His father was an evangelist in the Mormon church.
Having seen pictures of young Alice years ago , I've always thought he was attractive. And such a good husband too from what I've read. I don't believe he has ever cheated on his wife.
i once found a picture of Alice Cooper laying on the table of a film processing stand at a shop in North West Chicago in the early 2000s. he was standing behind a bashed out window with an axe, in full face paint. i wish i still had it.
What I’ve been trying to tell everyone about all their favorite singers and actors. They are all playing a character. Not saying that the people are good or bad people but what you see isn’t who they truly are.
Very old video. Great guy. Later years coached young peoples baseball. In Arizona where he lives. Called him mr cooper. Knew him as the coach. Huge when i was in high school early mid 70s. Pretty down to earth . Haters have to have something to whine about. Lonely in parents basement.
He played a character that he created, same as Boris Karloff,Jack Benny, and Vincent Price...He played the part and put on a great show, and still does! He just got a bad rap, same as Black Sabbath, and Frank Zappa... It's all a show!
The key to his success right there. He left Alice on the stage when he walked off
Yea, eventually.... But not here 😊
Got to see him on stage last year. Still amazing.
No he didn't. And when he realized he, he got sober.

At one point he actually became his character, and that was his downfall until he became sober and made a come back.

I loved him in the first Wayne's World movie.
"How violent am I right now?"
*everybody gets worried for a second*
He says so in a Ted Bundy way in the courtroom as his own attorney
@@UndergroundSkat2000 He......O.....uh.....what? Did Bundy represent himself?
It’s hilarious because it’s accurate. They treated Alice as an anomaly back then. Same as Bowie. It was funny as hell.
He's right; his name is Vincent Furnier and he's an actor as well as a musician, and his character is Alice Cooper and his performance is amazing.
He says he's a Christian but you got to ask would Yeshua dress up like that and act like an evil person and justify it?
@@lennyhorton2571Maybe the goal was to get a big audience and then show he's Christian for some troubled fans

And still goin' . My cousin saw him recently, in Australia too.
He was Keanu Reeves's babysitter. That's just wild.
He played state side east coast a couple months ago. He keeps going. I'd say him and dee snieder were the best influencers for rock.
Played the French horn at the beginning of the rolling stones "you can't always get what you want " and is a follower of Jesus Christ!!
You forgot great golfer as well! Great guy !

I met him in 2012. Very down to earth and friendly guy. Took time to take pics and sign autographs.
This man is religious & clean & sober - such a wonderful person
And a scratch golfer.
Watched a documentary about him. He used to drink so much he would vomit blood. He wife helped greatly in helping h8m b3come somber
He was so drunk during the 70's he says he doesn't remember any of it.
Praise God
I can guess which religion. 😂

I vouch that Timothy Chalamet needs to play Alice Cooper in a biopic.
He was responding to pearl clutchers eho couldn't grasp it was an act. He wasn't talking about normal people and fans.
This dude was my idol as a kid and still now in my 40s look up to him.
Alice Cooper was originally the name of the band he was in.
I love it when a rock star is the most intelligent person in the room.

Love Alice so much. Got me through a lot of crap when I was a teenager. Thank you Vincent.

Alice Cooper is just the best. Such an awesome guy.
Omg! He was so cute… saw him last year!! ❤
Well honestly, I find the character amusing because I can feel the seriousness and humorous everytime I See you live!
Oh myyy.. He's quite handsome! What gorgeous eyes. ❤
LOVE ALICE TO THIS DAY!
I’ve been to quite a few of his shows over the years and they were always the best!
He’s Alice Cooper persona is naughty not violent! He ‘Vinny’ is an amazing guy. ❤
OMG first time I ever seen him without makeup, and I'm 61, I'm not a big fan, but nice to see him as himself
I said Listen Baby you really wouldn't UNDERSTAND...
I Know Why the Singer's name is Alice. Johnny Depp referred to him as the ugliest woman he'd ever seen in Dark Shadows 😏
He became an alcoholic and his wife literally grabbed him by the ear and sain no sir. And he stopped.
I saw him perform live five or six times back in the '70s. He was literally my idol back then. Knowing that he was acting.
My late father and I were sat in a hospital waiting room when a nurse came in and said “Alice Cooper”?!! We cracked up laughing 😂
I loved Alice Cooper in the day!
Still as good as the best of em. Never ever cheeses a show. He does it for the love as he’s got the dough

It was a lot different in the 70s.
