If there was only one person I would love to meet before I died (and she was still living) it would be Julie Andrews. Ever since I saw Sound of Music for the first time when I was around seven or eight years old I have always loved her and even now I love her, she is just one of those famous people that you could easily get along with as if you had known her for years, she doesn't come across even slightly as someone who has been in show business etc, she acts as if shes just a normal person.
When I was about three years old I learned to say Supercalifragilisticexpialidous. By the time I was seven I could say It backwards.
My grandmother died eleven years before i was born and she is the only other person in my family who likes music. She used to go round the house singing that song. So thankyou julie Andrews for giving me a connection to a grandmother I never had...
THANKYOU JULIE ANDREWS FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART
ESTA MUJER ES PRECIOSA! ADEMAS DE SEGURO QUE GENIAL PERSONA LA MAYORIA HEMOS CRECIDO VIENDO SUS PELICULAS Y A MI ME TRAE BUENOS RECUERDOS SIEMPRE QUE LA VEO
LOVE YOU JULIE ANDREWS(L) YOU ARE THE BEST AN THE MOST BEAUTIFUL WOMAN IN THE WORLD!
I believe, and I hope I am not wring, but everytime I see Ms Andrews, whether it be on TV in a show, or Great Performaces, or in interviews, from the present back to the late 50's...one thing keeps popping into my head, "Class." My definition of class is someone who makes the company they are in, no matter who they may be, comfortable. She is gracious, kind, respectful, 'loverly'....to us all, in all situations. She is a prize for us all to enjoy, no matter what age you are. "Class".
As a waiter in L.A. I had the privilege to serve both Julie and Carol many times. Two very classy ladies, indeed. Sang happy birthday song to Julie's daughter. Will go to my grave being able to say I sang with Dame Julie Andrews.
Carol, you were spot-on, that evening- about your 'Old Friend' (see Sondheim, ya'll). She is millions of peoples' Favorite thing. Blessings to Music, Carol, Julie, et al.
i didn't mean her singing which she managed well, but her looks have radically changed. to me she really looks ill and not just 70, but i hope i'm wrong. thanks.
My Fair Lady is among the small number of "classic" musicals I would like to actually still see and do. While The Sound Of Music is a great, seminal musical, I am just personally tired of it.
after carol burnett said it's in her blood the music i could of swore it sounded like a little priest from sweeney todd, i was singin try the squire he's on fire. lol
Was that the very beginning of Carol Burnett's portion? Or was there something before it? I realize that the Kennedy Center Honors are not broadcast in their entirety, so perhaps there was more but it wasn't on TV.
thanks for posting! just one thing mamma mia is now the biggest movie-musical ever. well at least i think it is cause i read on one site that mamma mia made the most money for a musical ever. so i think it beat out sound of music but this was made before mamma mia came so yeah ok just wanted to point that out
It may have made the most MONEY, but you have to keep in mind the generations who have adored The Sound of Music and how it continues to live on. Somehow I doubt that Mamma Mia is quite going to live up to that.
And does that "most money" thing count the fact that the value of a dollar has changed since when SOM was made?
Actually Mamma Mia beat out Titanic as the most popular DVD in the United Kingdom if I recall. The Sound of Music is still by far the highest grossing musical ever, adjusted for inflation.
It's from one of her recording sessions. I want to say that it's from when she did a recording of "The King and I", but I could easily be wrong. Anyone else have a guess?
Yes I thought so too and I watched the whole ehm... thing. But I couldn´t find it. It´s a great picture and I only wanted to hear the song she sang with such enthusiasm.
You are correct! Her birth name is Julia Elizabeth Wells. When her mother married her stepfather, Ted Andrews, her last name was changed. Her first name was then changed because they thought that Julie Andrews sounded better than Julia Andrews.
I love seeing carol singing to julie. It reminds me of their varity show. I love them both!! I wish people still entertained like these wonderful women.
Thank you very very very much to post it. I really really really love Julie Andrews. It made me cry. The word 'thanks' is very small to express how much I feel about it.
A thousand thanks to whomever posted these tributes to Julie Andrews; this helps compensate for not watching the Kennedy Center Honors in 2000 - an inexplicable oversight on my part.
gosh i do love julie andrews! What a classy lady. She was so pretty when she was young, and she still looks good now. Bless her, u can tell she'd make an amazing nana if she was urs!
