James Avery Interview on Red Carpet at Ballroom with a Twist

[Lockoutsucks]

damn i hope they do an old reunion episode soon of the fresh prince that would be soo cool!

[LambertEliza]

Uncle Phil!! Gettin a lil too old you know what I'm sayin??

[EdMagikTV]

@LambertEliza With the type of thinking you have, it will not be long before you are too old, you know what I'm sayin'? When people tend to think a certain way being unable to grow and fathom the boundless possibilities, that's when they begin to die.

[wesker789]

@EdMagikTV or when their face stars to sag, greying hair, etc

[FazRulezZ4ever]

he seems a bit senile. unfortunately.

[EdMagikTV]

@FazRulezZ4ever I think you don't know the meaning of the word senile. James Avery is definitely not senile, not even slightly based on this interview. However, he may have a medical condition, like an allergy or a condition from being overweight, but I'd rather not speculate.

[Easyflux]

I hope he's well. He doesn't look to good :/

[CaptainDesiderio]

I hope he's doing alright. He seems like such a decent person.

[du0lol]

Dude is getting inexpressive D:

You can never tell how he's feeling.

[iKien321]

Such a good guy, warm heart too!

[RobertsDigital]

When we get to heaven we all remain young again or we can choose the way we want to be forever.

Thats why we must work hard through Jesus Christ to make our goal.

[xoio]

He doesn't look well.

But he was & always WILL be a BOSS!

[Donovan4194]

he looks horrible...

[50ztej]

The questions they are asking him wtf

[4ousef]

2:40 "DO I LOOK LIKE A WHITE GUY NAMED WARD?" lool

[converseshoeboy]

Terrible interviewer. And so what if he's aged, fresh prince was filmed like 20 years ago, he's like what....64? Jesus, leave the dude alone he seems like a great guy.

[Sexsess]

he aged horribly !

[newgroundscrazy]

I guess black does crack huh :[

[DommieNation]

they need to hurry up with this Fresh Prince reunion before poor Uncle Phil passes :'(

[MrNickelodeon90]

@DommieNation sad but soo true..

[h8ryj]

Uncle Phil seems like he's suffering from an ilness :(

[1331adm]

@h8ryj Naa it's just old age

[SexyPrincessBella21]

@h8ryj yeah its called getting Old

[AaronGaming11]

@h8ryj As much as it hurts, they are all getting older.. some older than others, we need to remember, oneday. we wont have a will smith, James Avery, or anyone else from the Fresh Prince cast.. Wish they could stick around for ever,,, but im the same age as jaden, so us teens will be able to watch Jaden follow in wills footsteps maybe?

[spyrogamidas]

Geez People can be so unbelievable.. this obsession with looks ..its 22 years since the show first aired and 16 years since it ended.. we are all desined to grow old and experience the degeneration of the body associated with aging..wear and tear susceptibility to ailments diseases illness organ malfunction and break down.. Every throwing uncomplimentary remarks about inevitablit

[compton483]

uncle phil

[megaplay]

why he cryin like a lil bitch? will prolly told him to play yo role 

[merlin19909090]

@megaplay basterd

[awubinski]

words from a very sage man... a very elderly, sage man.

[Enigma123M2]

2:37 1:15 1:55 i felt really bad ;s

[solojuve1897]

This is absolutley not only about him being older today. He looks like a crack-head for crying out loud.

[TheRailwaystationist]

@solojuve1897 He got thin. That's why he looks different. We're just too used to seeing the "Big Guy".

[Enigma123M2]

at 1:17 i thouth he was retarded

[JimmyTooShoez]

If they where to make a Left 4 Dead 2 Movie, Avery should play Coach.

[thesmoothcriminal88]

*Him as uncle phil* :/

[thesmoothcriminal88]

Exactly! Non matter what acting role he does we'll always know as une phil of the fresh prince :D

[paulod27]

What is it with all the morons posted comments about James looking older than he did in Fresh Prince. For god sake the man is older now so what. That show ran more than 15 years ago of course he will have changed since. You are all aging so shut the fuck up!

[210772106]

he lost a lot of weight since fresh prince

[thomaskaaz1]

some of these questions are retarded

[Juiceish1]

why is is face so messed up.

[TKerai92]

interviewer needs to be shot

[Blastaar7]

The Shredder.

[SpcMedia21]

he is taking some good cocaine.



[thcthc]

RESPECT!! a great man , with a warm heart!!



[ClutchLikeMeIo]

I could imagine Will walking in and interrupting him and saying, "Damn Uncle Phil, where were you!? At The Walking Dead rehearsal!?" lol I'm stupid I'm stupid

[MegaJohnnybravo123]

he looks as if jaz finally chucked him out instead .

[maxilla100]

dang this nigga looks terrible 

[lavvy2585]

he has not aged well at all wow

[jpsmart59]

I think he was replaced by a clone. They do that to the stars in Hollywood. He is not the same guy of Fresh Prince. Synthetic people they are called. They are replacing the human race with copies. We reached the end.

[jhkl123456]

@jpsmart59 Tell me more, please...

[britturk123]

Love to the big fella a wonderfully warm actor who for me was the cement in fresh prince, the interviews have to give him credit and stop the will smith questions but actualy apart from that great interview.

[hernaniBR]

Porra mano...como o tempo passa =/

[icon200]

james was laughing but you can tell he really wants ring the interviewers neck lol

[mousiscool]

this is a shitty interviewer

[Trancemaster2052]

James Avery not only looks alot different now, but his voice sounds alot different. I know it's been 15-20 years since Fresh Prince was on, but still it's remarkable how much he's changed.

[DoTaNeWb1247]

@yourallbrainwashed i just only have ONE thing to say to you they said the same thing because they are both AWESOME!!! period...

[TheWorldOfJames]

worst interviewer ever.

[McFarttron]

my wanted to come so i CAME nice :D

[xaviqaz]

He looks very old

[TheWorldOfJames]

wow he lost weight and somehow looks worse?

[chocoholicSISTA263]

THEYRE ALL SUCH LEGENDS! THEY MADE PART OF MY CHILDHOOD JANET HUBBERT, JAMES AVERY, WILL SMITH, TATYANA ALI, KARYN PARSONS AND JEFFREY MISS THEM SO MUCH XD

[Neeroking]

OMG he looks like 120 years old....

[icyhotonmynuts]

James Avery now looks scarey as hell

[yourallbrainwashed]

a box of cocks, bill cosby said that!

seriously, look it up on youtube!

[EdMagikTV]

@yourallbrainwashed Are you sure that you're not wasting time, and disk storage space with such a comment?

[yourallbrainwashed]

@EdMagikTV actually no. he reminded me of a video by the youtube user CJFOL. if you look him up and watch his videos you will see what i mean. you guess is you wont like his videos, but i think their funny.

[yourallbrainwashed]

@EdMagikTV so , did you check out cjflo and bill cosbys box of cocks yet?

[EdMagikTV]

@yourallbrainwashed No, I have been busy working on numerous projects in various stages of production.

[74K3AR1D3W17HM3]

@EdMagikTV like asking dumb questions on youtube?

"numerous projects in various stages of production" ???rly??

fagtalk.

[Artonelicofanatic2]

Lol, 2 decades later and he still gets questions about Fresh prince of bel-air. The man left a memorable impression as uncle Phil.

[17jun1989]

Uncle Phil was a Legend on fresh prince of bel air.

[BrettUpton1]

Holy crap! It looks as if Uncle Phil has lost weight!

[PurdieLauture]

SHREDDER

[051290ma]

he looks like he got snuffed

[tosh1988]

He lost weight, Will might be jealous!

[derbiester]

Looks like he cried

[thesparta1812]

uncle phil got skinny

[LURIBABY]

i think he is still handsome and he didnt change that much since fresh prince =)

like all actors from fresh prince , they are all so nice and friendly

[rankingtrevor]

That cant be uncle phil! Age is a terrible thing man!

[kikyouthekillermiko]

is he sick? is he dying? he's like that old family dog that you want to take out on that one last "special ride of the park" sorry to say I love James Avery...but dude!!! damn I dont want to get old >_< i see what getting old does and i don't want that or i'll lock my self away from everyone.

[SuperGamesking]

man what wrong with james ???!

[EdMagikTV]

Getting old is not a bad thing. It's when you don't get old, that is when it's a bad thing.

[ClearOutSamskaras]

@EdMagikTV You're confusing getting old with growing up. Everyone gets old but not everyone grows up.

[EdMagikTV]

@ClearOutSamskaras Everyone ages, but not everyone gets old, depending upon what you consider to be old. Age is relative, but for sake of argument, let's say old is age 40 or greater.. There are many people who never get to see age 40. To me, that IS a BAD THING. By the way, everyone does grows up. I think you are confused.

[ClearOutSamskaras]

@EdMagikTV You can not appreciate what I've said, it's all right. Peace to you.

[EdMagikTV]

@ClearOutSamskaras Thanks for commenting. Peace.

[Familia00Mensaje]

damn he getting old

[remiwarren]

Did anybody notice he was tearing from his right eye.....

[DrLove2Hell]

aaah cheese rofl, even on interviews he talks with food :P

[JPPraterCO08]

Damn, uncle phil, losing weight FTW!

[MrsJoeJonas2396]

James certainly doesnt look like he did in the fresh prince!

[Brady2k10]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 yea hes aged quite alot since then

[ironbrawl]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 duh that was set in 1900-1996 now its 2011

[MrNaffifire]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 But he sounds "exactly" the same ! and his spirit is up :D

[6simpatikos]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 maybe because 15 years have passed!!

[Godsgreatestgift1000]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 well that show ran from 1990-1996,so it has been 15 years. everybody is going to age, so you cant stay the same forever

[Ultimate007Trini]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 OLD AGE!!!!!!!!!

[pedobear123]

@MrsJoeJonas2396 I'm pretty sure that's Geoffrey

Also lol @ tears of bitterness

[TheCreativeJournal]

Thanks for the interview, I would love to sit down and chat with actor "James Avery" about "Hollyweird" I'm sure he has some stories to tell #LOL ...Was that "Freda Payne?" I'm not a professional in the business but here's my "two cents" for the interviewer: 1) If you're attending an event, try to learn as much as possible about it.

2) If you can get a list of people attending & would like to interview them, do a quick study and learn about their career. 3) Have a list of questions ready.

[EdMagikTV]

@TheCreativeJournal Yes! Freda Payne! What a pleasant surprise it was to see her on the red carpet.

By the way, there are literally thousands of celebrities. We often don't know who to expect at any given event. Frankly, I don't watch much TV probably because I spend much time producing content for it, so even I don't know everyone on the red carpet, but as I meet them, talk to them, and produce these videos of them, I learn more about them. It's a fun and educational experience for all.

[TheCreativeJournal]

@EdMagikTV Thanks for the info, I really don't know anything about red carpet events and the behind the scene work that it takes but now I do. Continue doing a great job!

[JimBryanMusic]

That's one dumb boring ass interviewer! Might as well be talkin to a robot. I expected James Avery to throw him out like he did Jazz! ;)

[EdMagikTV]

@JimBryanMusic Whoa! I'm listening to your music and it sounds so computer programmed. I suggest you alter the intonation of the instruments and percussion so it's not so repetitive. I also produce music.

About your comment and Joey's interviewing skills: I'm working with him to help him improve, so if you have any suggestions that can help him improve, please contribute. One suggestion I had is for Joey to slow his speech down a bit. That will help.

[JimBryanMusic]

@EdMagikTV

Sorry if I offended you but that's really how he came off (this is the internet, it's nothing personal), I'm sure you would feel the same way if you didn't know Joey and I would stick up for Joey as well if I knew him personally.

James Avery even said, "Talk to a man..." Meaning he would rather have a conversational interview with Joey as opposed to having fired sometimes random questions at him.

[JimBryanMusic]

@JimBryanMusic

My advice for Joey is to have relevant questions ready so you can set the course of the conversation and listen to the person you're interviewing so you can adjust/change your questions if necessary. Keep in mind that people get tired of the same "interviews" but will always be open to a real conversation (unless you catch them at a bad time of course). Hope that helps, peace!

[EdMagikTV]

@JimBryanMusic Great advice! Thank you. One thing I often do is have a discussion with the host to determine which questions are relevant. You hit on one of the last things I told Joey and I hope you see the change in his forthcoming interviews, namely last night's interview with Los Amigos Invisibles.

[EdMagikTV]

@JimBryanMusic No offense taken. However it is my view that if I give criticism, I also offer a solution, and I cannot be doing the very same thing that I'm being critical about; otherwise, the conclusion is that the criticism is personal even in an impersonal setting like the Internet. I often offer opportunities to people who seek to do hosting and performing. It helps people who are already in the performing arts improve their communication skills and gain confidence. -EM-
