- On March 26, 1969 Judy Garland and her husband, Mickey Deans, were interviewed for Radio Denmark by Hans Vangkilde. The interview was packaged with Judy's latest concert, recorded in Copenhagen the previous evening. Deans felt that he and Vangkilde hit it off well enough that he was bold enough to ask the interviewer to take Judy back to his own home for the night while Deans pursued business interests in Sweden. Finding a moment when Judy was feeling relaxed and talkative, Vankilde turned on his tape recorder and conducted a second, more personal, interview with Judy. Here is that second, never broadcast, interview in it's entirety.

Deans was an opportunist and poor Judy placed her trust in him just the way she did with all her husbands and MGM. Never understood how these men would use her the way they did. All the poor woman wanted, was for someone to love her the way she loved them and protect her. I think that if her beloved father hadn’t passed away so young in Judy’s life, things may have been much different. I read that she was quoted as saying when her father died, “Now, nobody, is on my side”. Sad because she was such a treasure that this world sadly lost so young. God bless you dear lady. ❤️
She was a 'poor thing ', bust she became a Screde Monstra.
That's not true,he loved Judy in fact he signed away all his rights to allamony if they had divorced and he never remarried because he truly loved only her.read his book before you condemn someone
@@pauline9580 He was a drug dealer. He got her anything she wanted. Her own kids wouldn't show up at the wedding because they knew what he was.
@@gsjarvis6669 wow,were you a friend of theirs then?
@@pauline9580 Not at all. Research my dear, research.
Wonderful interview. Judy was very smart and aware. So strange that this is 3 months before her death.
Her intelligence crackled right to the end--that and her musical phrasing, even in speech.
This is incredible- however it makes me sad. She deserved so much better.
They never gave her a chance. THEY WENT AFTER HER.
Her business managers stole all of her money, and didn’t pay the taxes, and the IRS drove her to death. The IRS killed Judy Garland.
She belongs to the world..our singer..legend
Ah, now I know why Judy didn’t bring up her children in interviews and on talk shows. I’d already figured hosts and media had been instructed not to comment or ask about them - except for the occasional compliment about Liza’s successes. You can tell here she was uncomfortable, but extremely proud of them and probably would’ve liked to sing their praises more, but she believed it was an invasion of their personal privacy and boundaries, particularly for teenagers. I think many stars during her time felt that way or they didn’t want their children on people’s minds for fear of their safety. Boy, has that changed.
Thank you for posting this video. She deserved tremendously better than she got. Damn the people that did her wrong!
God Bless Always Judy 💓🌹
Judy made these Hollywood giants and studios millions, it’s shameful what a mockery they made of her. She was such a brilliant actress and singer,she deserved much better than what she got from her mother all the way to the jerk doing this interview. God bless her children and the repose of her soul.
Wow. Didn’t know she had this kind of lucidity and sharpness the last heat of her life. She’s very patient with this ass too
i think it's because the last few things we've seen of her in this period of her life are mainly performances where she would have taken things to steady her nerves and the long term effects will have confused her. When she was relaxed and comfortable she sounded absolutely fine and barely even stammered. you can see even when she was clean when she was pregnant she would stammer dreadfully so i think a lot of the 'mess' people see and make fun of her about is her anxiety and being so desperate to be liked and to please she ties herself up in knots and everything comes out in a jumble.
From everything I've heard and read through the years, the one thing she desperately needed in her life, and never seemed to have, was a person she could TRUST implicitly -- both professionally and personally.
Judy Garland's dad and her two sisters loved her! Actors Jackie Copper, Mickey Rooney, John Hodiak and Gene Kelly Loved Her! June Allyson, Patty Duke, Ann Miller, Robert Walker, Sophia Tucker, Marjorie Main, Tom Drake, Spring Byington, Charles Bickford, Jack Carson, Billie Burke, Lucille Bremer, Martha Raye, Fred Astaire, Jane Powel, Margaret Hamilton, Jack Haley .Ray Bolger, Bert Lahr, Frank Morgan, Charlie Grapewine, Clara Blandick, Roger Edens, Charles Walters, King Vidor, Van Heflin, Victor Fleming, Arthur Freed, Harold Arlen, Yip Harburg, Montgomery Clifford, Dirk Bogard, Chill Wills, the little people who portrayed the Munchkins and Terry the female Brindle Cairn Terrier who portrayed Toto in the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz all and her fans loved her!
Brutal interview!
It’s difficult for us to see now but my own mother couldn’t have her own bank account until 1969. Women were not able to take control of basic things. Rich women had to have financial officers. Judy didn’t have a chance.
As I listened to Judy tell this interviewer that she was always being cheated financially, well, it was heartbreaking. She was right. She was always being cheated by the people she trusted. Thank you for uploading this revealing interview of dear Judy's last recorded interview.
Her mom truly truly failed her by not teaching her the importance of managing personal finances. She kept her financially illiterate so she could take advantage of her and thus she set her up to be exploited by others. Judy thought that handling money was “not feminine”
I think had she been taught those tools she would have had the wisdom to take control of her life and may have lived a longer happier life.
@@TrangPakbaby That's a very interesting premise. I read that her mother did cheat her as a child. She never learned how to protect herself. when it came to money. Sid Luft stole her money and left her bankrupt, I think Mickey Deens may have done the same thing. I wish she did have that wisdom you mentioned. She lived a tragic and unhappy life.
She is so relaxed in this interview. How nice. Just simply nice.
I could listen to her speak all night. Her voice is just lovely.
I can imagine what a nice evening with dinner would be like conversationally. Charming. real.
Thank you Buzz. This is incredible to hear.
Thanks as ever Buzz for sharing. Many infamous recordings from the late sixties have often shown Judy appearing slurred or in-coherent. True, she was battling health issues combined with addiction but when her medication was managed she was still just as articulate and charming as ever until the end. Unfortunately, this narrative doesn't always fit the story of the legend. Keep up the great work. Been a fan for over 20 years and this channel still gives me new material.
Correct me if I’m wrong, but I think the interviewer did an introduction to the Copenhagen concert. I have the recording somewhere, but it sounded like his voice. I don’t speak Danish, but I was able to hear “fiasco”…..also “gin, vodka, Ritalin”. What a snake, after Judy being so gracious in this interview. Great to hear Judy in spite of him. Thanks for posting!
@stevers62. If you’re correct, then I completely understand how a famous person can easily end up with thieves and backstabbers in their circle. This guy was really convincing - acting like he liked her and was on her side. Same as everyone else would’ve acted when they met her, so how could she possibly know who was genuine and who wasn’t until they ripped her off or backstabbed her. It’s no wonder so many celebrities end up filing lawsuits against their managers and accountants for stealing from them. Judy was extremely fond of Jack Paar and considered him a great friend, but he was anything but. He pretended to adore her so she’d tell him unflattering stories about other celebrities - like she’d do when she appeared on his show. But he’d ridicule her behind her back. (Paar was a bitter failed actor, seething with jealousy and envy of those who’d become famous.). To me, fame just isn’t worth it.
I found the introduction. I’m not positive it is this man, but it really sounds like him. He also adds “bourbon” to the list in the concert introduction. I wish I spoke Danish to understand the whole thing. The recording is from a Judy double-disc from the 90s named “Judy Garland in Concert: The Beginning and the End”, which includes the Copenhagen concert on the second disc. I see there are copies on eBay.
@@stevers62 It is the same man, Hans Vangkilde.
@@BuzzStephens1 Interesting. Thanks for the confirmation.
This is a National treasure!
Very strange how Mickey her husband according to Judy in this interview, wanted her to wear a mini skirt when she was freezing 🥶 and had a coughing fit. This interview is unassumingly revealing. Her last husband seemed to be getting a strange sick thrill of seeing her frail skinny legs( at this time) and her body diminishing slowly. So sad and awful. He should have been investigated. I never knew until now, that she was wearing those short dresses because Mickey wanted her to. She was trying to please him. She also talks about how people stole her money from her TV show and she didn't get paid. A bunch of crooks were surrounding Judy Garland and contributed to her early death. This is shocking!!!
Awesome interview , darling Judy and liza you are true Gems!❤❤❤
Somehow I find the questions about her children intrusive
You're in love with your son ,then 🙄
I'm IN LOVE with my husband. I love my son
This interview was done a very long time ago and the interviewer doesn’t speak English as his first language. He is probably Danish.
@@scandinavianfreedom2589 If he doesn’t know the diff between loving and being in love, then he shouldn’t be interviewing her. I happen to think he DID know the difference.
i'm only a few seconds in but ooooh she's a smart one. 'what did you call me? that's not my name you're talking to another lady' i guess if you ask Judy Garland questions Judy Garland will answer. I wonder what answers Frances would give. Judy may have had her fallibilities but she really does seem like she was a wonderful mother. Respecting her kids and allowing them to make up their minds about who they want to be as long as they're good people, not pressuring them to be this or that 'she's not supposed to make up her mind yet she's only 16' it would be nice if all mothers were so considerate of their kids and recognising them as their own individual beings rather than as an extension of themselves.
Exactly! She spoke with ultimate respect for her children. I have great respect for her in many areas, especially as a mom.
Omg, beautiful
I'm Danish...sorry about this ;) Her last concert was here and it wsn't bad at all.
Amen Judy !!!
With technology today Judy could have been independent and collaborate anyone anywhere and love it
47. i cant believe it. ever.they made her age double the speed.
💕
None of Judy Garland's children can even touch the tip of her fingertip of her many legendary talents: her singing, acting, charm, costume design, dancing, entertainer, graciousness, personality, sense of humor, and wit! This interview is obnoxious!
Is there anywhere to listen to the interview with Mickey that the interviewer went on to show Judy at the very end of this discussion?
Unworthy men/husbands/agents took advantage of her unwillingness to fully understand and at least exert final authority over the crucial aspects of her own finances. Simple as that. JG did not want to put in the effort to learn the serious issues of financial management necessary for a “business” of her magnitude. (Yes, she was a human being, first, but also a big “business” unto herself.) At her level, she should have demanded to sign every check. Exhaustion, emotional troubles, and poor judgment in men compromised her ability to do that, but she would have spared herself immeasurable grief if she had summoned the effort to oversee these things or learn how to oversee them. She didn’t. When unethical men saw how lax she was in this regard, they took her to the cleaners. She was a staggeringly well-paid entertainer-the highest paid superstar of her long heyday in many respects. She should have had a nest egg worth multi-millions and even more in solid, aggressively conservative market investments and sensible tax shelters. But … terrible taste in husbands and financial svengalis. Partly her fault, as much as it hurts to admit. Hey, Doris Day and Debbie Reynolds (among others) let men wipe them out, too. Interesting interview, certainly, but the Denmark couple sound like typical vampires, out to butter her up, tell her what she wanted to hear, and make a buck. As for the final husband … oh, Judy, what a dud. 😑 JG was lucid, here, at least until it seems the interviewing couple got much drunker and incoherent. But one can also tell that Judy was very guarded and nervous in this situation, beneath the general bonhomie. Who on earth could blame her?
You also have to take into account society’s gender rules from her generation - men handled the money. Judy didn’t take control over it because it wasn’t “her place” as a lady - and also because she wasn’t equipped with the tools to do so.
I appreciate your take and agree . I have just recently started learning about Judy and it is unreal at how amazing her shows were to not have anything to show for them . This last crew plus Deans were the lowest . She states Deans loved her in mini skirts ...that tells me all I need to know about him . Sad
Where did they find this guy??Christ.....it's painful!!!!
I agree! And who is the woman who does most of the talking?
She was so wacked out of her mind .Hollywood is the devil so sad .Everyone loved the wizard of oz.
no wonder it wasn't released.. should be titled GETTING RIPPED WITH JUDY GARLAND (last interview)
The story told by Judy herself
At what point (time stamp) does this stop being cringy? REAL question.
This interviewer is terrible.
AGREED
So tired and sad voice
Was it a Swedish meatball?
She was a lovely woman and performer but the pills mismanagment and poor finacial circumstances brought about her sad ending. If only she couldve gotton some true help but she just didnt...
I thought her kids didn't know Mickey
Lorna, recounted in her book, that while her mother was being "waked," at Campbell's Funeral Home in NYC, Mickey took her (in the guise of giving her some distraction/relief) to a book publisher's office where Mickey signed a contract to write about his time with Judy. Lorna did not at all understand this at the time (she was just 16) but later figured what that "outing" was all about. Lorna called Mickey (who was still alive at the time of Lorna's book release) a "putz," for essentially using her as a "prop."
Wish she could of found the strength on her own !
Terrible so many sharks around her , using her incredIble talent , ruining her finances .
ᎮᏒᎧᎷᎧᏕᎷ 👊
I could tell them what a swede was 🤣
Judy is in classic 1960's denial and failing at being her own spin doctor . At this point in her life she should have not even been answering questions on a tape except to a Clinical MD . The lady who is interrupting is making no sense . I thought her money was all going for back taxes ??? Why did she step foot onto any stage not having banked money or know where it was .
I think I get your point, but in all fairness how many artists do you know (especially from back then) who were paid fairly? The business has always been stacked against the artist unless they write, publish or produce their own music...Most artists were robbed to the tune of millions back then because they didn't know the business, they were talent. Artists who tried to handle the business side were always labeled troublemakers. It is not inconceivable at all that she put her trust in shady managers who used her talent to profit off of because that is how the business is still ran to this day. And in Judy's case, at the end of her life ALL of her income was generated by live appearances so there was a certain degree of desperation to making her appearances.
@@UncleDuTheWatchman Thank you and I agree now after you pointed this out . It is so sad that entertainers then had so little control and yet so talented .
This guy seemed like he was trying to trip her up and make her seem like a fool. Judy had all the right answers as to her children. I don't like this interview at all
What a ghastly, rude, awful interview. The woman with the big mouth frequently cuts Judy off and/or talks over her with diarrhea of the mouth. I can’t believe I listened to this. A legendary talent deserves more respect and certainly not an ambush style interview by these mud racking amateurs.
It's not an interview - It's a private recording made for some other reason, Judy was a guest at this mans house with his family. So this just another bit of explotation.
After listening to this, you can understand why it was never broadcast: It’s painful (and painfully boring)! The interviewer is terrible, with ridiculous questions and comments. Honestly, I’m not sure I see the point of posting this sort of thing, even from a historical perspective. I love Judy in many ways but the constant complaining (not just in this interview) about her straits becomes tedious. She saw herself as a victim especially in her later years. Sure, people took advantage of her but she was a willing participant much of the time.
Judy is delusional when she denies overdosing in a Hong Kong hotel. Mark Herron, her future husband, was with her at the time and found her unconscious in the bathroom. He. rushed her to a hospital, and she almost did die .It was in all the papers Poor Judy, never wanting to take responsibility for her own actions .Brilliant talent, but so many issues.
I believe Judy was talking about the recent press reportage following a missed concert on her 1969 Scandinavian tour.
@@BuzzStephens1 Ahh, thanks Buzz.
Her life was unlike any other. Her childhood, especially, was unlike any other.
