RIP Anita, Bonnie and June Pointer. I fell in love with the heavenly voices and great music as young 8 year old growing up on Chicago's west side with 'I'm So Excited', 'Jump' and 'Neutron Dance'. I know they were doing their thing long before that early to mid 80s period. But that's when I became aware of them. God bless their souls.
Rest in paradise,💐Anita Pointer.😢💔 Thank you for your work that helped create our childhood soundtrack.💫🕊️🌹 I’m So Excited is still one of the most amazing and uplifting songs that I’ve ever heard. Thank you so very much! Rest in peace.🌹🕯️
@@markjohnson9485 yep...June was a stunning lady...most attractive african american lady I've even seen images of...I have a goddess of a khmer girlfriend with a perfect figure but in that soul train video where they mime automatic the figure of june in her pink dress is amazing...very rare to see a woman with that shape...my girl has more pronounced...the thin legs and thigh gap...yummy!!!
I was born in 1983 and never heard any of their songs but recently was watching loot on Apple TV and on one of the episodes the song Automatic plays a buried memory of my mother dancing and singing to me while she was cleaning the house came to me I called her and she said it was her favourite song when I was born and she played it over n over that's why I remembered it
I have always listened to the music of these beautiful ladies. There will never be anyone like them. I adore them. May you rest in peace Anita pointer.❤❤❤🙏🙏🙏🙏💫
I have ALWAYS, STILL DO AND FOREVERRRRRRRRR WILL WORSHIP these INCREDIBLY TALENTED, SOULFUL, BEAUTIFUL, LOVING, FUN AND FAAAAANTASTIC SISTAH-WOMEN....THE ONE AND ONLY POINTER SISTERS. ETERNAL BLESSINGS ON ANITA, BONNIE & JUNE'S MEMORIES AND ON RUTHS' BEAUTIFUL SOUL😍😍😍😍😍❤❤❤❤❤‼
I'm 40 and when I was young Anita was always my favorite one....it's something about her that I gravitated towards. She just seemed so regal and warm and friendly. I think Anita looks so poise in this interview and I love her hairdo too.
Ruth Pointer and Barry Gibb have very eerie similarities. Both were the oldest siblings with three younger siblings of the same gender also in music. All of the younger siblings died sooner (with the youngest dying the soonest in each case, June and Andy), with the oldest sibling outliving ALL three of the younger siblings. Ironically, the deepest voiced woman and the highest-pitched falsetto man have so many other similarities. Truly eerie, like a yin-yang of sorts. Ruth Pointer and Barry Gibb should do duets, in the form of joint tributes to all the younger siblings that have passed.
Looks like I"m the only one here who's going to point out Jada Pointer (Anita's Daughter) at 1:30 who's holding the granddaughter. She passed away 2 years before June also due to cancer. RIP.
Jada died 2003 and June in 2006. Sarah Pointer died 2000. It was a string of deaths for the Pointer family of their loved ones, unfortunately. It took its toll on Anita as she wrote in her new book Fairytale! Baby Roxie was who kept her going. She now plays a prominent roll in her grandmother's and aunt Bonnie's life. God bless them! Miss June:-(
@Iceman 23 Can you believe it? And suddenly too! They were able to say their goodbyes to June, but sadly, not to Bonnie. With Ruth living in Boston area and June gone, Anita and Bonnie had gotten very close, they were each other's best friend and they had just recorded that beautiful song, "Feels Like June" as a tribute to June. Therefore, I am feeling sad for Anita, knowing that another loved one has been snatched from her again.:-(
@@orane3549 I was taking her brother's (Fritz) summer school English course when Jada passed. He missed the first 2 weeks of class for Bereavement. Before that, it didn't even hit me his sisters were...just didn't put 2 and 2 together.
@@adriennerobinson1180 Yep! It's almost two years now since Bonnie died suddenly. It sent shock waves through every Pointer Sister fan. The original PS group is now down to two sisters from four. Very sad!! I was really hoping to see Ruth Anita and Bonnie go on one last mini tour together, but I will just have to fantasize watching that concert which will never happen. 🙄
Dental work, better hairstyles, and better clothes did wonders for June's looks. Much hotter at 37 than she was at 23, which is incredible when you think about it.
Sadako is shown a lot now that she is a part of the current Pointer Sisters act. It's Onika who is never shown or mentioned. I read Onika's book, it's a little hard to read, but it's a good book.
@@jennyboggsflynn4548 Glad I'm not the only one who felt that way. I have now read all three books out. Onika, Ruth and Anita. Do you know if there's more? :-)
@@jennyboggsflynn4548 You and I are probably the only two people who have read all three books. I purchased Anita's book and was reading it (again!) yesterday when I heard of Bonnie's passing.:-( I got Onika's ebook and borrowed Ruth's book from the library.

you speak for me ! I'm from 1977 and thoses tunes is my childhood ! i was very very happy when playin GTA Vice city to ear "Automatic" ^^
To think June was suffering from addiction and a terrible husband at this time is so heartbreaking she really never knew peace, rip queen🕊
Ruth also had an addiction.Not sure if it was around this time though
@@keonta81 ruth wasn't addicted at this point. She was clean by 1986
June pointer was a Goddess.

@@babkeebabkus8177 yessir!
These ladies were so damn talented.
Sisters with TALENT!
I love the Pointer sisters....and Arsenio was the greatest. I wish he still had a talk show....we need some
talented people on TV today.
I agree. Television is now a drag and if there is something worth watching, they talk about streaming. Huh???
They hate real deal nowadays.
⭐June, Anita & Bonnie Pointer⭐

My fav! RIP Anita. 😍😥
I loved the Pointer Sisters❤😊 I watched some Aresnio back in the day.
There's only one Pointer Sister left. Ruth Pointer. May her other three sisters R.I.P 🙏
If my memory serves me well I still have an excellent collection of The Pointer Sisters of each song that they have.
Please have a nice day today. ©®

Prior to the passings of Anita(1948-2022), Bonnie(1950-2020), & June(1953-2006) there should've been a reunion with all four of them
😪💟🦾🕔🕟🎤🎼🎵🎶
The Pointer Sisters, all four of them, were excellent and talented singers.
Please think positive daily. ©®

Rest in heaven sister. Very talented family. 😘💔😪💋🖤💜🖤💕
June was a total babe
Funny how the Pointer Sisters are taking over Arsenio interview 😂😂😂😂😂
Great times!
Back in those days I would never miss an episode of his shows. He was the bomb of late night talk shows...!!!
omg ruth became a grandmother when she was 36. that is young.
And had twins at 46 y.o.
Siempre e escuchado la musica de estas hermosas damas.Nunca habra nadie como ellas.Siempre las amare.❤❤❤❤❤🙏🙏
Rest In Paradise Anita.
Beautiful Women! ❤️
I remember seeing the Pointer Sisters at the Boarding House on Bush Street, in San Francisco 1975.
1.40 the grandbaby 😍
june was so hot
Yes we can and chick on the side ...straight funk and can do it live? Rare.
June was always my girl, but where's the bottom half of her dress? Lmao that's a damn t-shirt she had on. But beautiful, as always.
She had on shorts.
She was very much grown lol
Ruth Pointer and Barry Gibb have very eerie similarities. Both were the oldest siblings with three younger siblings of the same gender also in music.

Rest On Anita...I think Ruth (the eldest) is the only one left
Yes, Ruth is still alive.
R.I.P. June Pointer (1953-2006) and Anita Pointer (1948-2022).

Ok. Now I know what the finger pointing up represents.
It's something ladies did in the black church to excuse their self .
Beyonce, this is what singers sound like!
🕊️
I wish Sadako or Onika would have been shown
Sadako is shown a lot now that she is a part of the current Pointer Sisters act. It's Onika who is never shown or mentioned. I read Onika's book, it's a little hard to read, but it's a good book.
Orane yes. I read her book as well. Agree, it was difficult, but another perspective
@@jennyboggsflynn4548 Glad I'm not the only one who felt that way. I have now read all three books out. Onika, Ruth and Anita. Do you know if there's more? :-)

Arse who?
Sound like women there. One sounded like a man on automatic
That’s the best part of that song!
It was done on purpose
June looks amazing!
Sad the only one left is Ruth Pointer Sisters are Legends
