Hugely underrated John has been a fixture for over 20 years! From Stand-up Comedy, Hollywood Blockbusters and Music Video-clips he's done it all! LEGEND!
This dude has longevity. He keeps reinventing and creating a platform for himself. I'm looking forward to seeing this show!
Yadira Laguerre he oozes creativity
It's really really good.
It's on Netflix in the UK
@@Beshman12 It was something else, that's for sure.
He’s amazingly versatile and incredibly intelligent. One of my all-time favorite performers!
Great adaptor and Survivor
First thing worth watching on Netflix in a while. European here, I tend to hear things about black history, but had no idea how little I knew about the Latin side of things until watching his show.
I was just about to say the same thing...Wow, we're was Latin history when I was in high school reading about all these wars.
It's one of those read it yourself at the library.
Its satire in between, so look up the books he references. Good reading.
I plan to watch it this weekend.
Education is power.
Lol yeah we got fucked, but hey that's life. Most of us ain't salty, one love.
The biggest minority in the US with almost no visibility in media and Hollywood movies. Kind of weird if you ask me as an outsider from Sweden. The latino community has great potential.
Part of the reason is that about half are foreigners and among the native born, most are still very young. So this might change in one or two decades. Maybe.
we were and been in every war plus kicked out of our own land just to be asked to come back and work it then get kicked out again the reson we aren't betrayed in the media or Hollywood is because we have our own movies and music exc..and we don't bitch every time we are insulted we keep going with a smile fuck it
Just recently we have been taking over Hollywood, we now have directors, producers, and actors making award winning acts and movies. Guillermo Del Toro makes bad ass movies.
James Curtis I like how you included the growing number of pedos
irphn irphn: You know very well that what you probably mean by "your people" are in the great majority of cases recent descendants of people who were not crossed by the border, assuming you mean the border changes in the Mexican American war.
I always found him to be super talented. Spawn. Everything he's been in. Diverse in genre. Just an excellent actor. Gives all of himself to the role. I really missed him.
I'm happy to see he's back.
I’m a Latin female and I was never taught anything in school about our contributions to U.S. history and when I traveled to Mexico City I learned our great contributions by visiting great seminars and museums.
I don't believe you i'm form mexico and i never heard of "mexico contrutions to United States" ahahahahaha
@xRyalsx mexico is latin dummy someone get this guy a book
xRyalsx “ReAl LaTiNs” hahahaha
xRyalsx aww what’s wrong? Is your “white” identity changing before your own eyes? “SuBrAcE” hahahahah what a little loser troll.
@xRyalsx first off France Italy Spain Portugal and Romanians are European second we are Latin American I looked this up since you said so here it is Latin America where the Spanish Portuguese French language prevail which is : Mexico,Most of central and south America,and In the Caribbean Dominican republic, Haiti,and Puerto rico by the way we aren't wanna be Latins we were conquered by spainards and forced there culture on us which is why we speak Spanish we are of Latin descent so yes fool were still Latin I know Latin started on the other side but you brought it here forced it on us if you run our blood test we have Latin decent in our fucking blood so there you go sir
John is a legend, one of the most underappreciated actors in the business.
philonetic Thank you. My exact thoughts. Excellent show on Netflix. I saw it a few days ago and watched it twice!
#facts. #longtimefan.
john is 💯 underrated.
If you havent PLEASE see one of his movies
*To Wong Fu Love Julie Newmar*
I have appreciated him and glad to see he is doing well.
@Michael Zavala lol I was honestly thinking when he said see one of his movies, "just not the pest!" I love his old stand ups and other movies though.
TOTALLY
Disappointed in the ovation he got, do these people not know he’s a legend!?
His performance is amazing. Definitely a must see.
It's on Netflix now
John Leguizamo is a charismatic & amazingly versatile actor. He's always interesting to watch.
I read "John Leguizamo Teaches Latin History for Mormons" and was very intrigued
Mido same dude
Same. I was hoping for a mormon roast.
Watch the netflix show if you have it it is even better
The show is fantastic, this guy is talented, funny, smart and way entertaining.
🤣🤣🤣
I'm thankful for the Latin people, today and everyday. Great interview boys!!
Italians appreciate your appreciation. John is Iberian and Spanish not Latin.
@@fritolaid6805 He's from Columbia, do you know where that is on a map? Do you need another very easy hint?
@@fritolaid6805 spanish are latins....
Viva Colombia! Todo adelante parceros!
John Leguizamo is a great person and actor.
He was on one of the other late shows not long ago. I absolutely love this guy. I wish he had been around more often during the early 2000s. Just brilliant and underrated.
One of the best stand up comedies I have ever seen 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
He's so right about bullies. They like to take their intellectual laziness and stupidity out on the kids who actually want to learn. But those kids are smart enough to use the bully's own stupidity against them. Hard lesson learned, but very effective.
Judi O'Regan I use t be a bully, this is true, not out of jealousy but because it was funny. And didn't know you were a girl because I didn't really care to read your name, and how stupid are you using the word twat against a guy? Do you know what a twat is? Open your hairy fish legs and see for yourself. Also you're not as smart as you think you. And I'm using my phone. Also who made poptarts I'm starving? Num num num num
thats a lie i knew brilliant bullies which were the worst
Watched it on Netflix a couple days
and it was so funny and insightful. Always loved John Leguizamo and still do, totally recommend watching it 😊
I to am very proud to be a Hispanic.
im very proud to be an american
randall anthony ..You don’t know what Hispanic means, do you?
Hispanic isn’t a nationality. It’s a term used to describe people from numerous nations and cultures.
And a lot of American culture, and America’s land itself, is the result of Hispanic influence.
@@crowz6247 you mean spanish influence.you know that empire that slaughtered millions of non hispanick peoples
randall anthony No, I mean Hispanic. Spanish is included in that, but a lot of our country came about from the Spanish culture mixing with native cultures, and the native treasures financing a lot of America.
@@crowz6247 very little.his country became great because of its northern amd western european peoples and cultures.the great american work ehic was from the puritans.the protestant christain ethics and values made it unique. all central and south american cultures lack that.
A very likable individual.
EVERYONE NEEDS TO WATCH HIS SHOW ITS AMAZING
definitely is !!
Very humble and smart, I really like him
I keep seeing Tybalt everytime I see him, Brilliant actor!
Jinkazam, humble, no way! Smart, YES! :-)
I love this guy. Just a talented and beautiful man.
He's amazing! So educated, even if he seems to be friendly to the people, he's well aware of the Latin Culture and how politicians constantly offend or ignore them. I'm glad to know that at least someone in Hollywood can tell the Latin America Story.
Stefany MM "So educated"? GODDAMN YOU SOUND RASCIST AS FUCK!!!!! Do you think he "talks well too"?!?? Are you such an ignoramus that you think what you said was a compliment, and not an insult?! STFU and learn a thing or two, you ignorant POS.
he really isn't tho your trying to make something racist that isn't stop being the pc police dude he was pointing out he is educated when its pretty obvious that the majority of people are unintelligent/uneducated and based on your comment you seem to be one of them you jump down peoples neck when you dont know what tf your talking about fucking keyboard warrior u deserve to get your ass beat
Rick C-137 Jeez, bite me. I meant it as in having the decency to know what he's talking about (having done the proper research) before speaking and not just saying
whatever came to mind -.-'.
Mike DiDonato gott em😎👍
AFRICANS BELONG IN AFRICA wha? who you are you responding to? Just a wierd comment, & Africans are not allowed to travel the globe?
nevermind just finish your meth and clean up that mc donalds.😎
Completely agree with John Leguizamo's idea of a "releasing" of Americas darker issues.
Scott Greene Yes , our "founding fathers" were racist demons. Browns and blacks built this country.
@@kingghost8168
I'm glad you're telling yourself the truth now now that wasn't so hard was it demon
@@kingghost8168 i'm from mexico and you are wrong white Europeans settlers build EVERYTHING EVEN THE SISTEM and they are not racist Unites States of America its a country for white people or white immigrants only and foremost
John Leguizamo is an amazing comedian . I used to watch him on To Wong foo and his voice on Ice age is unmistakable. True talent underutilized by hollywood's racist machine
Truth be told though, we have made a lot of strides in recent decades. Gael Garcia Bernal, Eugenio Derbez, Salma Hayek, Alejandro Inarritu's Oscar for Revenant, Guillermo Del Toro's success, etc.
He should've won an Oscar for To Wong Foo. He was snubbed for real.
This interview is amazing. Bravo to the both of them.
oh I remember Leguizamo 's older one man stories/specials from long back, he is a great performer and storyteller! hope this new one will be out on dvd/streaming platforms cause I can't think of affording tickets.
Great interview., great chemistry between the two.
“I’m so American it hurts”. We love you, Leguizamo.
Awesome interview and great personalities! They both work together well!!!
Thumbs up👍🇬🇧
Saw this on the weekend. Was really entertaining! Great message as well x
He is an awesome actor and a great person.
i like the santana touch! nice one jon batiste!
Thank you for being part of this. I love his sense of humor. John Leguizamo ❤
This is great stuff.
Stupendous mix of real laughter and semi-awkwardness.
Love it!
Recommend watching on Netflix - great stuff
So proud that a Latino uses his platform to educate the world. Keep up the great work, John!!!
I saw his special and hes the most entertaining teacher I've ever seen. I learned a ton and I actually remember it.
i literally got all the books he reccommended in his special... the rotten tomato reviews are hilarious in saying that he was spreading mis information but. every single book he referenced.. backed every single word... love the special!!
Maybe, but he's NOT half or a Quarter or even 1/8 Puerto Rican, he's 100% Colombian as his own father stated in an interview.
before video: despacito
after video: Latinos have been in every single American war, from the 20,000 soldiers who fought for both the North and South during the Civil War, to the 170,000 who shipped out to Vietnam. They are the most repressed minorities in US.
heythisistiana no black people are
Aboriginal people's are the most repressed, anywhere.
And you know that white culture is starting to turn in on itself when autocorrect changes your correct writing (peoples) into one of the most common errors.
Took me a full 2 minutes to get it to keep the spelling I wanted, in my reply. It kept inserting the apostrophe, then switched tactics and started changing the S to a C.
Good luck with A.I..
you are so wrong about repressed.
Remember me? *_I’m Benny Blanco from the Bronx!_*
Henry Albrecht 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
I didn't know that was him
Thats a great movie...Carlitos way..
Carlito should've killed him
I watched John Leguizamo’s special twice on Netflix last night and it was really good and educational! Thank you!!!
Love John. One of the greats.
Watched it on Netflix this past weekend. It was phenomenal!
Love him, talented guy
Yaaasss!!!!!! It’s always empowering to know your history!!!!
Great piece of work...very eloquent...smart...the way he expose the truth...unbelievable accurate
Super-talented guy.
The Enema of America. Pure gold.
I like the banter between the two. Contentious, yet civil.
Great Show... I learned a lot and enjoyed it a lot
Oh that’s Benny Blanco from Bronx !😂💪🏽
Looooove him - so real, so down to earth. :)
Brillant show, thank you for the lesson!
Hell yes!!! Much needed enima!!!
Happy Thanksgiving, Luigi Mario!
what does that have to do with the Mario Bros. movie??
Veteran Nintenerd maybe hes implying the Mario Bros killed natives?
Veteran Nintenerd the gumbas obviously represented the natives
Jeff G nah they invaded the kingdom.
U R a bot
John Leguizamo Freak is a classic
Watched his Broadway show last night! BRAVO!
Love John Lequizamo! Talent on legs & he’s super likable too.
LOL I thought this guy was boring - he's a blast
czcams.com/video/cAB8dNMoXZ0/video.html ;)
Happy thanksgiving y'all!
Kyle Mason we are a plague
Jonesy Films lol, hilarious!
Im mary poppins y'all !
John is so talented and exceptionally funny... Loved his show on Netflix. Thanks for making us laugh/cry so hard...
It was amazing ! ❤ So proud !
I'm so pleased that Stephen knows about and admires Hirschfeld! Though I think every New Yorker is required to know his style 😛
It's the Pest !
Fran Tura Quacky?! What did they do to you?!
Fran Tura "Of course I farted. What, you think I smell like this all the time?"
That movie had 3 good bits and the rest suck
Jesse Chingon Thank you for such a comprehensively illustrated opinion! So well articulated! A truly amazing, and yet unwarranted review!
“You don’t look like Chinese, you look like Moe from three stooges, therefore I fire your ass!”
Great interview.
Such a fun interview.
Ayy it's Benny Blanco from The Bronx
Ayy it's The Pest
Oh shit! Luigi Mario survived the Mario Bros movie?!
You just reminded me they actually made Mario the surname of the brothers in the movie and it hurts me deep inside
This dragqueen, Chichi Rodriguez, from To Wong Fu.
Aww.. I sooo wish that his show was on tv! Fingers crossed soon it will be!
Keep doing your thing Juancito!! Let em know!!!
I love his personal qualities, between being Colombian, Puerto Rican and a New Yorker. I appreciate his points of views.
He was never Puerto Rican, this dude has a identity crisis. His own biological dad was interviewed to clarify the lie.
czcams.com/video/PZu_O3jys0g/video.html
I like this guy.
Great interview! Ill never forget when I first saw Super Mario brothers movie as a child and was very disappointed but then I watched a documentary on the movie and how crazy and absurd the directors were and loved it!
repsect for that man. alway been one of my favorite actors of all time.
"There is no Hispanic Race, there's Hispanic CULTURE". Ah! Finally, someone said it. There's actually many Hispanic cultures, but it's fine. That means the world isbgetting a little bit less moron. Also, I greatly appreciate the fact that John abstains from saying "latinos/latinas" and just says "Latin people". That Latinos and Latinas thing is so Hollywood, I don't know why it got popular, sounds horrid to my Latin ears
ThatOnePerson I say 'latin people' because I don't want to say 'latinas and latinos' because I'm lazy.
Most hispanics in the new world are som kind of meztisos which I dont mean as a derogatory term as it might be used in some countries. Not even iberians are a race which would be the hispanic race if there was such a thing. Latin people should include french italian portuguese and Romanian speaking people aswell?
And mind that latinos and hispanics are not the same. Brazilians, for example, are latinos but not hispanics, as they do not speak spanish (portuguese is their language).
I"m moving to AZ. I love Mexicans but don't know what to call them if not "Hispanic" or Latina etc....Don't call Latinos or Latinas or Hispanics? Then what?
Regular fucking people. Don't think of them as Mexicans, think of them as what they are, fellow Americans. Naturally born or immigrated, you're American when you're here and you pay taxes
The best Luigi Mario. John Leguizamo is vastly underrated.
I loved his show!!!! I’m taking Spanish in Uni next year I hope other than the language we go deep into history 😍❤️
The man is incredible, extraordinarily talented! He gets so much into his character he's sometimes unrecognizable. He becomes the character he portrays! I'm mystified as to why he's not a bigger star.
He is so cool
65th Infantry Division who fought in the Korean War was made of Puertoricans
That was such a great interview! I've liked John Leguizamo since "To Wong Foo" and "Romeo & Juliet" era. :)
He's show is great! I learned so much.
Good times.
10/10 interview :)
He's still got it! Loved him in "Chef" with Jon Favreau..
I'm SO glad I watched his Netflix special!
Funny and sad at the same time... but VERY eye opening AND educational!
There are too many who would prevent the world from knowing the truth, we all need to educate ourselves!
"He's Like the Enema'" on of the best so far.
"You know we go wherever they pay us" 😂🤣
The show is a must watch for sure.
Nice touch on John's entrance music, Samba Pa Ti, the songtrack when Benicio del Toro's character died in The Fan, where John plays a radio DJ
Oh hey !!! It's 'Sid the Sloth' !!
Nat Diaz and Tybalt...
And the Pest
Luigi Mario
Benny Blanca from the Bronx!!!!!
Spider mike
glubox, my childhood friend
John is the best American.
what
He was always the cool dude. For no reason I can point, he's likable and fun, and always a pleasure to watch.
He's great! I love to watch him perform: he's so funny, true and talented. Love ya, John Leguizamo!
I see John Leg I click like.
Christ, say "Latino". The Latin people already claimed that name lol - I came here expecting to learn about the language or its speakers way back when.
I randomly watched this on Netflix and was pleasantly surprised and entertained
I loved it. I watched it on Netflix. Amazing and shocking history. I was blow away with the historical information and the impressions of John
