This woman's voice is one of the most beautiful I've ever heard
This intervenes so charming and wonderful. God bless dear Betty Buckley Xxxooo
What a great interview! There is nothing purer than listening to an articulate artist discuss her own work. It sure beats hearing someone else’s interpretation of that work.
An unparalleled artist... but also such an articulate and thoughtful speaker. It is a delight to listen to her speak about her craft.
I had the pleasure of working with her on the London show of Sunset Boulevard. She was and will be forever Norma Desmond for me ❤️
So interesting how she acknowledges the way her analyst and her physical trainer are so key in working with her in crafting her artistry.
She is totally awesome! A wonderful performer and a wonderful human being.
This lady has amazing cheek bones structure. Simply beautiful !!!!
best star of sunset blvd ever!!!!
I went to NYC in November 1983 and my cousin took me to the Winter Garden Theatre to see "CATS" because Betty Buckley was going to be in it. I loved her in "Eight is Enough" and wanted to see her up close. Unfortunatley, the day I was there she was sick and her stand-in took her place!
A beautiful, gracious, talented lady, a true talent and wonderful actress xxx
An amazing woman and talent. I was lucky enough to see her in Sunset Blvd in NYC. It's an experience I will never forget.
She is pure class!!
She is by far the best Norma Desmond of the musical.
SO wonderful and down to earth!
Great interview! I love this woman!!
TIME magazine described them as "cheekbones you could cut your finger on..."
: )
@fountainchain126 well said. This lady deserves only respect. Her talent, integrity, knowledge, intelligence & grace are incomparable. She is a true genius of the theater.
I had the great pleasure of seeing Carie the Musical at Stratford with Barbara Cook. 1988. Still have the program and pamphlets. Need to look and see if BB was in that cast somewhere. Just LOVE BB
Great interview.
Wow I saw her when she was about 20. I never suspected she would go on to such a spectacular career.
What an interesting story about the behind the scenes of Sunset Blvd... Sad to hear that about Patty but I guess that comes with the showbiz territory
Grande Betty un saluto da Genova Italy.
Still a fox. Love that voice and cheekbones.
An amazing song stylist. Her album ‘with one look’ compares with Sinatra’s Capitol albums.
15:25 - 20:41 Best part. I loved her interpretation of Grizabella in CATS.
indimenticabile abbey bradford
I thought she was real pretty on 8 is enough,and she still isn't looking to bad now for a woman pushing 70!
Dame Batty...I kiss your feet!
I love tour on eight is enough as our you I think it was tough for her to come in and replace Diana Hyland the mom on the show who passed away when the cast had bonded with Diana but Dave said that badly in the cast did not always get along and I love her and tender mercy that song over you it’s just beautifully done she also did frantic with Harrison Ford and also was on Oz so she’s acted but she’s done more of the theater but I wonder what she feels about eight is enough because she never does the reunion shows and I don’t understand that if it wasn’t for that really be quite honest yeah she was known in the theaterBut not much elsewhere so TV really brought her out in the open so I wonder why she never did the reunion shows that’s kind of unfortunate but Dick Van Patten who played the dad on eight is enough always speaks highly of our Betty the cast the rest of the cast did not have always the nicest things to say about her
I think Betty clashed with the producers. They talked up her character like she would be a very strong, feminist career woman of the 70s but they kept trying to make her more of a housewife which bothered Betty. She also was used to working with trained professionals in the theater and some of the kids in the Eight Is Enough cast were not very seasoned. Willie Aames became a teen magazine heartthrob and got a swelled head, didn’t have patience for “actor” stuff and that bothered Betty. But from what I gather, the conflicts settled down after the first couple of seasons and she wound up thinking of it as a dream job.
Did that give you a license to be a boor.
PhD...now that's rich. You mean you're doing SOMEONE with a PhD? Boy we really trashed this comment section, didn't we? Sorry folks.
Wonderful reasoning on your part. Still in elementary school, eh? Let's just end this here because you're either yanking my chain or there is something seriously wrong with you.
@fountainchain126 Now you deserve criticism. Autism is a serious disorder that is not meant to be casually thrown around so you can make a colorful insult. Grow up and think twice before you write something so insensitive again.
Well said? What part of that was well said? The part where he insulted the autism community??? Geez.
