Amanda Palmer interview

[DorixDoll]

No she is not known for being the dresden dolls, she known for being a PART of the dresden dolls.....

[somethingdiffrant]

@UlimateCakeEater I'm just seeing the beauty in her, not saying she's "better" than Amanda. An interview is not about the interviewer---of course she'll seem not as smart. She's paid to make her subjects look awesome! I've been an interviewer and it takes a lot of skill to put the spotlight on someone else. Amanda is awesome in her own right, of course, but I suppose I was just taken by that lady. :)

[AlexiaAnthem]

Is that why she stays at expensive hotels? Did she mention that? Oh wait, no she didn't.

[hmtdih2dt]

@AlexiaAnthem The last few times she's come to Melbourne she's been staying at fan's houses...

[DorixDoll]

@hmtdih2dt TRUE! and if she ever stayed in a fancy hotel.. well she's married to Neil Gaiman so thats where it comes from, and it doesn't comprimise her talent as an artist.

[jpalm2011]

good good chat amanda ox

[6CharlotteSometimes6]

God, Amanda. I love you, but stop interrupting. Hahaha.

[xXHana3Xx]

She is my greatest inspiration. I adore her I...just can't find words to describe it. Amazing person, amazing musician

[lacedupnightmares]

This is why it's so disheartening to see people who are only making music for the fame and attention. Amanda Palmer is so talented and genuine that I couldn't think of anyone more deserving to be called an artist. Her idea of what the music "industry" could (and should) be with people making music because they love it and not really needing the fame but loving their fans anyway as people and not as fans is so ideal and I hope that at least to some degree that that's what it becomes.

[listenchonsienb]

Palmer performed a skit at several concerts where a Katy Perry look-alike would come onstage and begin singing her controversial song, "I Kissed A Girl",

[thetallulahbunny]

Lol why does everyone insist on making a big fuss about her not shaving??? Big deal, she's gorgeous, body hair or no body hair!

[michaeltschuertz]

@thetallulahbunny you knew that the female body in it natural form is so awful to people! LOL

[MeggieMoodle1]

I really love her! I swear, I think she could do this interview without someone there asking questions XD She can really take control of it.

Also, I don't see anything wrong with the armpit hair. She is confident and unbothered by it, why should we care whether she shaves or not?

[ferdinand31388]

I love her songs and her armpit hair.

[SheilaBeela87]

1:10 Doesn't this chick shave her armpits?! YUCK!

[ringwraith10]

@SheilaBeela87 No, she doesn't... and she's very vocal and straightforward about it. Do you have a problem with that?

[ePifJany]

@SheilaBeela87

NOPE! Isn't it GREAT??

[MsEhhhhhh]

@SheilaBeela87 Shaving armpits is not normal, actually. American propaganda has just shined that idea down on you. In reality it's not all that nasty. Grow up.

[iLullabiestoparalyze]

@MsEhhhhhh Shaving your eyebrows also isn't normal, though.

She is incredibly talented, but this rebellion against corporate media leads a lot of the attention away from her actual music and to whether or not she shaves.

[MsEhhhhhh]

@iLullabiestoparalyze She's not rebelling at all. She just doesn't like the way the world is set up nowadays, so she chooses to do things her own way in a passive manner. There is a difference between rebelling and blinding yourself from what others think. Also she cannot choose who disagrees or agrees with her naturalism, as there will always be ignorant critics.

[bollockowithalob]

@iLullabiestoparalyze

So, you possess a monopoly on normalcy, eh?

[bollockowithalob]

Who is the sexy one?



[avirazzy]

i feel the exact same way she does about how i play piano

[beelzebunge]

"Young musicians ask me what to do I tell them glom off somebody who's already famous and take your clothes off a lot." What a dispicable, fame hungry tramp.

[anatoly86]

the interviewer looks like she wants to suck afps face off

[NeonxSpotlights]

Whoah. At last, a non-narcissistic, non-egotistical performer who actually cares about her fans. I love how much she interacts with her fans. It's a really pleasant change.

[goodmorningchap]

FUCK YES

[Sammydoodle14]

I love how the interviewer is a smitten fan, always makes for a better interview.

[Enchantedivy]

Neil isn't really a sci-fi writer lol

[PrawnSticks]

@Enchantedivy Not actual speculative science-fiction, perhaps, but most people would consider his stuff kind of sci-fi.

[ringwraith10]

@Enchantedivy He kinda is... Sci-Fi and Fantasy are very similar, and he certainly writes a lot of fantasy.

[youngwithoutyouth]

I think I like her speaking voice more than her singing voice... Which is a hard feat. but it's true. :)

[hamaleton]

i have to know what song this is i canty find it can anyone help me?

[lilyampersand]

It's called The Point of it All

[zerlinamozart]

[JoanIsNotTheMaid]

Not classically trained? So there's hope for me yet!

[aliwithcurlyhair]

I Love Amanda! This is wonderfully inspirational!

[panicgirl115]

[drattswhereitsat]

Amanda makes me feel more at home with my feelings on things like what she said about the idea of success.

[DjprofesserK]

i love this woman....how can u not?

[flickhead]

[missivonmcgowan]

Yeah. It's amazing, she's had maybe 3 questions asked in seven minutes. Love it!

[somethingdiffrant]

Well, it helps that she's talking to a super cute Australian. I adore her as well.
