[thalialuvmx]

OMG EVERYONE IS IN THE VIDEO!!!!! THESE WERE THE GOOD OLD DAYS!!!!

[thalialuvmx]

HOLY FLIP ITS GREER GARSON AND LUCY BALL!!!!!!!! I LOVE THEM!!!!!

[thalialuvmx]

HOLY SHIT ITS GREER GARSON!!!!!!!! I LOVE HER!!!!!

[ilovemartinmilner]

"A nice man, a cool actor, and I am your fan" My sentiments exactly!

[vinnierusso99]

Yeah, she was hilarious. It is a shame most of those comics from Dino's Roasts are now departed, there will never be another group like them.

[cjs33139]

did anyone else think that when she roasted Janet Leigh and she mentioned learning something from that movie she was in, Psycho, I thought LaWanda was going to say that she learned never to take a shower alone. LOL But instead said she learned never to shave her legs in the shower. haha. She is too much. Knowing how dirty LaWanda can be, I guess I expected her response to be dirtier than what she ended up saying. :)

[dabigdikdangler]

Dat was the SHIT! XD

[TeaRonWatkinz]

Lawanda is a TRUE queen of comedy!!! Just anything goes, all out, just a mess. I love her

[stimpp]

..steal hubcaps like you steal jokes...XD

[vaarluukl]

lawanda stole the show lol

[mohinderbauer]

What did Lawanda say around 1:00?

[mohinderbauer]

Imagine Lawanda was allowed to do her regular comedy act

.

[lizzyvance]

I’m 22 and wish Comedians could be this funny today. I have not laughed that hard in a while.

[LEIMALOCCA]

Due black ppl are funny.... poor milton tho... she got him good lol

[mikethegent]

they dont have comedians like this....im still howling over this clip...LaWanda had me in stitches when she roasted Frank Sinatra

[hlove3]

This is too funny!

[hardlines4]

REAL entertainers!!!

[DA90027]

LaWanda was great. Wish they had people like her around now.

[clintxoxox]

This was just a nice performance..just pure nice and halarious

[jastheace2010]

Good question about the prompter mate, Milton Berle is clearly looking at it and reading it as he definately said 'hubcaps' as she was saying it, kind of deflates it a bit. The roasts were still great though, I dont think they all used it, Rickles didnt thats for sure but maybe some of the other did

[islezeus]

can someone explain to me the bloody mary joke?

[FourFish47]

@islezeus Foster Brooks was famous for his act of being totally inebriated. He was one of the best drunk acts there was, and it was all he did. That's what LaWanda meant by if Dracula bit him he'd get a Bloody Mary. ;-)

[aitraining]

Lawanda could roast. She knew how to do it - which is why Dean put her on so much. Very solid and funny!

[basejumpin1]

pure class

[jjonessofia]

Can anyone tell me if these guys were reading off a prompter or not, i'm sure being a massive Rickles fan that he never was but you CLEARLY saw Milton Berle saying 'hubcaps' as she was saying it, just curious as I love all of this, maybe someone can enlighten me.

[ekocentric]

I've heard LaWanda's standup here on youtube and she did not talk this nice. I am an air force veteran and grew up in Watts and this lady used such bad words that I sometimes feel like hiding behind a tree and crying and laughing at the same time.

[vintagefan92]

ROTFL!

[mikethegent]

Keep your hands to yourself....you tipsy turkey....HA HA HA

[mikethegent]

Keep your hands to yourself....you tipsy turkey....HA HA HA

[Astraldragon1]

[x2thada2]

Good Lord!  Most of these peeps r in heaven, I can imagine everyone laughin and cryin they eyes out with these folks around. Heaven must be a ball then!

[marilynmortician]

You are so right. They must be having a blast!

[snoops71]

I love how she ended it. It was so sweet :)

[ladyreneepro]

SIMPLY FLAWLESS

[123bigmill]

[SmallvilleTwilight]

"well i can't say anything bad about you skinny" lol

[onlyjoetee]

GEEEEEEEENIUS.....

[myboylollipop09]

The black Totie Fields!

[omar168]

According to IMDB she started out in showbiz as a stripper. Wonder what she looked like when she was young? She was pretty big and tall.

[sdseals2076]

I was scared she was going to Call jimmy Stewart a honky like she did every other white person. But she did mention it in the begining.

[skirts27]

Dang! First I thought she was Flip Wilson!

[GodsFavoriteBassPlyr]

She was sooo awesome.

I miss not having Real Stars to entertain.

[RockyBalboa211]

They all had talent and class..

[CloudsofBliss]

@RockyBalboa211

roasted!!!!

[SkorpionOne]

Damn!!! They all just got SERVED!!! OMG that was great thanks for sharing it!

[QueenKnightofHearts]

Yeah. Thanks for sharing it.

I'm black and a Jimmy Stewart fan.

I'm really glad there's a clip to show some people are hardhead that Jimmy isn't no racist.

I have a pic that he was playing with Duke Ellingtion and shake hands with black soliders during the Vitamen War.

[snoops71]

I'm black, and like Jimmy Stewart, too. My favorite movie of his is "The Glenn Miller Story".

[marilynmortician]

Thats one of my favorite movies too!

[ekocentric]

@snoops71 I am and do too. Most actors back in the day just seemed to hone their craft and keep their mouth shut. If they gave to a charity people weren't apt to know. It's nice to just watch someone put on a good acting job and keep their political alliances to themselves.

Stewart was one of the classy ones.

[starr522]

This was talent beyound reproach. No racist b/s just love and respect. All in great taste and did you happen to catch, no vulgar talk at all. Humor can be acheived without racist remarkes or every other word being a cuss word.

[dramamajor1985]

HAHA What does a cactus know? LMAO

[rocketman6464]

she nailed it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! good stuff.

[lonemapper]

HOMERUN!!!!

[ElvisonTour1972]

[Dinks70designs]

She's the shit! She roasted the shit out of their asses.

[SgtAnt08]

[usa02]

Watch it sucka!

[localflava]

"June Allyson! I don't know what you doing here with all these old drunks?" LMAO!!!

[CarlyIsAGangster]

You Tipsy Turkey!!

LMAO

[SounzNice]

"he'd get a bloody mary" lol!

[SounzNice]

mickey rooney wtf .. what did this guy ever do? why is he there?

[CarlyIsAGangster]

Oh I don't know maybe because he's a very well known actor.

Or the fact he was quite funny.

[hkg02161954]

I saw LaWanda in concert in D.C. years ago....Im no prud but she made me blush...what a funny person!

[phantassm]

Dean Martin is great.

[yapi777]

yeah well my english is not so great so if you know where we could have a transcript from this or at least few quotes, that would help me a lot, thank you :)

[justinbluehall]

She was a sweet lady.

[kevalev12]

GREAT WORK

[nicziw]

This is hilarious, this was the golden age of comedy, all the greats have gone now apart from a few, and we will never see their like again, a sad day for comedy!

[vln1972]

man i sure wish life like that would last forever thats what i call UNITY when people can sit together an laugh WITH one another black -white- spanish u name it TOGETHER... these comedians today in 2009 are a damn joke!

[rockjohnson80]

That Kramer guy from Seinfield killed it.

[lee69mee]

You can tell, they were scared of what she was gonna say....LOL

[deceiver123m]

why the fuck would someone thumbs down, when lawanda page is pimp and not scared of shit, ur lucky she didnt say fuck white people, cause i know she wanted to.

[freshness2346]

lol.....

[duvine]

Love Her, thanks for placing this vid!.

[Bo618]

great funny people that are missed

[KNUTE65]

My wife asked me one time shortly after we got married back in 68, why i am so calm, joking all the time, never thinking bad thoughts about anyone, and happy all the time. It was because , I think, growing up watching these people all the time. Comedy will never be like that again!

[frc1968]

She will ALWAYS be AWESOME!!!!!

[ken6663]

Lawanda!! Her real personality was in the end of this clip whe she kissed Jimmy and Dean! And keeped saying to the audience God love you! She's so Sweet!!! How can ya not love LAWANDA!!!!

[lettersfromaboy]

@ken6663 - I love how she didn't roast Lucille. She had alot of respect for her and it showed.

[sethocopia]

Loved her RIP!

[4DECO1]

This was comedy in the days before you had to be politically correct about everything. It's so sad that nearly everyone on that stage is no longer with us. They were truly great entertainers. R.I.P.

[cecillbill]

I love how just about every woman who comes to the podium tells Dean Martin to keep his hands off her, lmao.

[ken6663]

She is so Sweet Dean loved her!!

[shanghaibenny2]

OMG! She really got Mickey Rooney there.

[Areashiftybun]

And these pricks have tried to say Jimmy Stewart was a racist.

Great clip.

[mrbrandon71]

Pure class....there are no "stars" anymore. Just celebrities.

[ken6663]

She was great I liked the way she kissed Dean.

[hym456]

now she was the original Queen of comedy

[bette1908]

i wonder why she didnt let Lucy have it

[ifusuckilltellu]

I was just thinking the same thing I mean but can you really say anything about about her she is the queen I think Lawanda was very grateful for Lucy after all she started it all!

[HumanBozoBoy]

genuis..i love her..lawanda was brilliant..today she'd be a gazillionaire she funnier then any of these cunts

[foreskin44]

i love her glasses shes funny!

[uyg2008]

I miss Aunt Esther.

[AntnyMichlHallnOats]

My old man was standing back stage at the Silver City while Redd was doing his act and standing next to dad was Lawanda. My old man wasn't even looking at her when she said to him out loud "you'd better stop looking at my tits muthafucka!".

[Blackjesus3]

funny as hell

[gibbonsinthelibrary]

LaWanda Page was brilliant. Funny lady! :)

[beaugarsNYC]

Wow, they don't make 'em like her anymore. What a class act.

[Veggieman87]

This has got to be the best job in the world.

[SEXYDIVALICIOUS19]

absolutley genius!she will be so misseddd!!!!

[tarquin08]

FANTASTIC,

Thanks for posting.

[DAVIDINTEL]

Funny as ever, and left the podium on a sweet note! Aunt Esther will be missed(We love you LaWanda)!!!
