"not everyone understands my jokes"............

lol, Lou Reed's kicking some ass again!!!

[kompooot]

Hillarious! What an incredible asshole, this poor french quasi-model :D

Is there no such thing like simultanious translation in France? You know - a guy (or a lady for that matter) who listens to the foreign guest and translates immediately what he/she says and the TV direction simply overdubs the original sound with the translation? Live?

In cases like that, here in Slovakia we do it all the time like that.

But then again - we are by far not as cultivated as the french are.

this is torture!! lou reed showed more patience that i thought he have!

[clickswitchh]

why does he translate everything .. dont french people understand english ?

[cactaceous]

If a French performer came to North America and spoke French do you think that he won't be translated so that the North American audience understands him? Get out of your North American high horse, there's a big world out there that is not the United States. People speak other languages. Mandarin, Portuguese and Spanish are spoken by more people in the world than English.

[cactaceous]

I'm Spanish and I understand it but many of my friends don't.

Sorry, I didn't mean to give a thumbs down to your comment. (on the contrary, I agree with you.)
