Dana Plato - Howard Stern Final Interview - 5/7/99 (1 of 4)

[mcradloff]

Howard was bullied as a child by black people, he bullies and gets paid for it, he clearly killed Dana Plato.

[cabadura1000]

There is a limit to asking questions and howard passed the limit..im dissapointed because it seems so clear to me that she was being attacked then killed herself the next day..why arent people in jail for this????

[cmc36905]

It makes me very sad to listen to this. This sweet girl of my teenage dreams was opening herself up yet again for public scrutiny. She was loved by millions, all of us hoping to see her sort herself out and be well and the only people the producers were letting through were trolls who told her her life's work had been a waste.

I can hear the anxiety in her voice. Not drugs-just adrenaline and anxiety.

Her ashes were spread over the Pacific. I hope she found her peace there.

[TheBassBandit16]

1:39 Wow Howard, like that's any of your business. What a douche bag.

[thundertower]

wow, motorhead and fang, insane line up

[7477238]

Sorry the only person responsible for Dana Plato's death is Dana Plato. What was she expecting when she went on the Howard Stern show?

[sirpico123]

she was a seriously messed up individual

[millers3888]

Howard Stern is a POS. His segment on Judy Garland was stomach churning, especially when he defends someone like Dana Plato in this interview then rips Garland to shreds in another segment, when both were dealing with the same problems. I get he's a shock jock and what not, but he's capable of showing some sort of sensitivity, like here. Why is he a douche all the time? I'm not really that familiar with Dana Plato, but the people who called in are also a bunch of assholes.

[thundertower]

@millers3888 if garland went in and says she's sober, in a heartbeat howard would agree and go to the next topic.

[millers3888]

@thundertower I disagree. Judging from the segment on Judy, he would not have let her off that easy. But maybe being in the same room with the person changes his demeanor. The fact is that Garland was drunk when she made those tapes, but it was the low point of her life, hardly something to be making fun of. He showed 0% compassion for someone who went through a rough time. And Dana Plato, who robbed stores and did near close to porn movies is a saint in Stern's eyes.

[picojohnson]

there is no prof she blew gary coleman

[mrsolofeo]

Excuse me, everyone is familiar with Howard Stern and what he does. Anyone who doesn't want to be subjected to Howard Stern's confrontational style on interviewing should not appear on his show. Regardless, he is one of the best one-on-one interviewers in the business.

[rusty1491]

Mitch Hedberg also appeared on the Howard Stern Show two weeks before he died of an overdose.

[gopconservative78]

Dana blew all the money on drugs........and blew Gary Coleman for money

[Brad420Folks]

In the Howerd Stern movie he never talked about this interview. Cock sucker. 

[WhoCares3001]

@Brad420Folks His movie came out BEFORE this interview.

[LedWhisky69]

@Brad420Folks Howard Stern's movie, "Private Parts" came out in 1997. This interview took place in 1999. Would be kind of difficult to include an interview that hadn't happened yet, wouldn't it?

[Tomsouthrock]

Howard Stern going around and asking everone if there lesbo what an ASS HOLE

HE IS what a dick Jew

[Brad420Folks]

@Tomsouthrock I hate that fucking jew.

[glover519]

oh...i didn't know Howard Stern made her take drugs for over a decade and slip into a clinical depression...oh wait..he didn't. How is it his fault again?

[Popteart]

@glover519 Thank you!

[kdj997]

I didn't know Howard Stern made her kill herself.... I'm proud of the media for not pushing that connection in the press in all seriousness.

[Brad420Folks]

@kdj997 The media are dirty jews and Stern is a VERY dirty jew. Jews stick up for eachother and wash eachothers asses. That is why I hate Hitler. Its cause he didn't finish what he started. He let Gene Simmons mom live.

[MizzyTheQueen]

such a sad story. may she and her son RIP

[KeithWasHere1]

This poor girl wasnt as bad as everyone made her out to be she just was lost and didnt have anyone to guide her except the wrong people,Misery loves company but it also loves victims more.Dana you were and always will be a beautiful and special person,i wish life had treated you better and given you more happiness,may you find all the happiness in the universe on the other side.

[KeithWasHere1]

Howard stern you are a walking piece of shit,you are at least in part responsible for Danas death,exposing her to all those hateful people.you suck man.

[FemaleFeet100]

I LOVE DANA!

[bobeagle007]

howerd stern and that fucking black bitch killed dana with that awful fucking degrading interview..howerd gave her a hard time..he should feel guilty about her death the creepy long haired jew..

[IEatManure]

@bobeagle007 Agreed. I hope he gets anal cancer that causes him to die on the toilet while trying to take a massive dump that erupts out of his scummy reptile body in a huge shit spray

[snappycruise]

@IEatManure oh lol! poetry! awesome!

[hotgirlsarehot]

Very sad. According to Todd, she did cocaine and drugs, so she wasn't being honest in this interview.

I'm a new fan of Different Strokes, and love her character, and I find it so sad that her life came to an end like that.

Super surprised when I read she experimented with so many things when she was 14.

[jaymoore299]

She sounds really messed up. She's trash.

[Sirgreaseflick]

Stern is a mawkish, conceited trouble-maker, playing with lives, obviously interested in Plato's lesbianism, tits, porn, and theft; and the other radio announcer needs to be tethered alongside Stern, torched and have their screams broadcast. That would be radio history. Stern has zero tact. Dumb fuck.

[warmgunofadaytripper]

@Sirgreaseflick You think Dana Plato didn't know what Stern was all about? She had been on the show before.

[ImaLittleStitious]

Stern's partner is the real evil one, in this part of the interview anyway. Just let it go. She lied. She was slowly killing herself her entire life, who didn't expect her to lie? There's no need to prove anything here. It was her life. She was broken from the time she was born. She should have been allowed to live in her own fairytale until she made her way to Heaven. She's probably as loved and accepted there as much as she longed for here on earth.

RIP.

[hell0hkitty]

stern is pure evil, so is his psycho woman partner. plato sounds weird as heck.

[88Panzzer]

She commited suicide. Howard Stern was partially responsible for it. She was way too unstable to be on a show like this. He should have known that, but what would a money-grubbing jew care about anyone? She died the next day, yet this idiot claims no responsibility.

[TheElBorak]

@88Panzzer So you're not only an idiot but also a racist. Nice.

[dancebaby808]

we know now that she was not entirely truthful in this interview. seems to me that she was concealing some darker truths about her life.

[WhatDeFrock]

Does anyone have the show after she died? That would be interesting to hear.

[PhillyLucky7]

She's a fucking mess. I feel bad for her.

[debi5058]

She should not have come on this show.

[Wentfradump]

TERRIBLY ANOYING VOICE

[nevergonnaletudown]

i believe that the story about the accountant is true. she was on a talk show in 1991 discussing it. she said she was alcoholic when it happened she didn't care what was being done w/ her money

[Attila709]

I read that after this interview she and her boyfriend went to visit his mother for a weekend. After that they drove back to California where at some point she overdosed. So how could she have died the day after this interview?

[rsohlich1]

I know this until today, but her son killed himself on May 8th 2010. Very sad. Dana was a decent person, just had some bad addictions. RIP Dana

[VincentValdemar]

Happy Birthday Dana! You're still missed! :'(

[mwild007]

i didnt watch the full thing and im not doubting anyone since i only was able to go like a minute it, what did he say was disrespectful? im watching shane dawson and he said that howard said something about dana and she killed herself the next day so..... ya thanks!

[ccaa6732]

This reminds me so much of Lindsay Lohan it's scary

[mightydistinguished]

@ccaa6732 I know, that was my first thought too. Uncanny..

[xgilxx]

What you talking bout Wilston?

[er6789er]

I fell in Love with Dana when I was a young teen - I miss her and I am so sorry that she screwed up and over dosed - I will always Love you Boo.....

[PDXland37]

God i hate it when howard will be talking and he will pause, and i like it how he said she looks like she is no where near death and she dies the next day.

[CoonShoot]

What's Dana up to nowadays?

[twm314]

@CoonShoot she died back in 1999.

[ifuseekamy]

So sad how her son killed himself close to the 11th anniversary of her death.

[talltom1973]

People blamed Stern for her death, they did a tv movie that showed this interview. Everyone looked evil, in the clip. They had Robin in some sort of glass booth. Like an isolation booth.

[binslick]

Hey Dana Hollywood forgot about you but we Haven't.you were a Person of humility and compassion a person full of love,life and vitality.you had a bad break that's all..

[OralAgreement69]

some douchebag lawyer stole her money and she ended up killing herself. if this lawyer could be found i wish him cancer, deaths in the family, impotency, etc.. this fucking piece of shit

[horriehomepage]

@OralAgreement69 Oral agreement? What about anal agreement?!

[binslick]

it is Terribly Sad, heartbreaking and Shameful that Such a Nice and Beautiful Girl had to leave this World so soon.Dana Plato was not a bad person by any stretch of the imagination she was just a victim of her Environment..

[ladyjaneheath]

@binslick such nife and beautiful girls leave the world all the time I don't see you complaining then, fuckhead.

[binslick]

@ladyjaneheath if you cant make a comment without engaging in name calling Please don't bother to comment at all!!!!! am not a ''Fuckhead''but maybe you are for not respecting other Peoples view!!

[dormanbenton]

Try listening to John Lennon's last interview the day of his death while his murderer awaits him downstairs. December 8th, 1980. It's amazing the stuff you can pull up on youtube.

[RawrtasticNerd]

The SOB's who called in on this show and treated this human being like this should burn in hell and good riddance! The serve no purpose on this earth!

[brabon1]

this appearance killed her.....her kid killed himself a few weeks ago....and now gary coleman is dead

different strokes was an evil show

[abehammy]

@brabon1 how was it evil?

[Frequent2001]

why does howard stern asks if shes married to a white guy, that guy is a closet racist.. at least he should come forward and assumes himself instead of being like OH I GREW UP IN A BLACK NEIGHBORHOOD IM A FRIEND O BLACKS hes a fucking hypocrit..

[tugarados]

she fucked up her own life. fact

[Ra06ul07]

@tugarados Really...

[binslick]

@tugarados That doesn't give People The Right to Ridicule her just because ''She Fucked up Her Life''she was not a Bad Person.she was a sweet girl who was caught up in a whirlwind That She Couldn't escape From. RIP Dana!!

[nervouswreck75]

She's got a great voice. It seems to me that she could at least have made a great career out of doing voice acting.

[johndoe590]

her and elizabeth shue kind of look alike.  and if some one steals 11 million dollars it would be hard to find them. it would be hard to find me if i had 11 million dollars

[genioatrapado]

Why does this reminds me of Lindsay Lohan somehow?

[RockyBalboa211]

Overall, a poor woman who had a very hard life... Overall I hope God blesses her spirit ...

[sclements75]

Howard Stern is such a piece of shit.

[dormanbenton]

@sclements75 you couldn't have said it any better then that because he is a piece of shit.

[bgoluboff1]

@sclements75

he's so disrespectful and a chauvinist pig in this interview

[SimplyRisque]

That's not true about her being offered the Exorcist lead; the guy that directed that movie confirmed that.

[Onion241]

wow what a liar. she lied about 1000 times. she ended up dead shortly after so you know she'[s lying about the drugs and the lesbian. "when I left her" is what yiou say about a girlfriend NOT a roommate. she's living a lie

[anthmar35]

@Onion241 she actually died the day after this interview.

[Ra06ul07]

@Onion241 Prove it. I willn't accept you talking about Dana these way.

[Onion241]

wow she was HOT!!! BEAUTIFUL picture!!

[Skidrj]

Sweet voice. Great talent.

She was before my time too, but I can recognize a great talent when a I see/hear one.

Rest in peace lady, I hope you are in heaven with Jesus Christ.

[monkeysodope]

she was before my time, but man... i can't believe people believed the shit written in the Enquirer. wtf.

[piewackett1]

Howard Stern encourages a hateful atmosphere, especially for women, so it is no surprise his disgusting fans called to be disgusting to Dana. Stern was rewarded with multi-million dollar contracts.

If I hear on more person tell me this patriarchy doesn't exist and isn't harmful to women I will kill them.

[maggarita2019]

I'm having trouble getting these to download. Any suggestions?

[truriot]

you can tell she is all fucked up here even howard seems thrown off by her

[CreepyEyeFilms]

I always thought she was pretty. I remember the day she died, it was very sad.

[ScottGrewe]

She committed suicide by overdosing in a Winnebago, (her home), parked directly outside of her fiancé's parents home. Thought experiment: if you heard of someone committing suicide under the same circumstance; would it be hard to imagine the illness and hardship they would have wrestled with up unto that point? Hearing this woman insulted, degraded, and humiliated to the point of tears makes me aware of the fact that things said out of anger just may be the very last words someone else hears...

[asiansarecute]

So awesome you uploaded this! Thanks!!

[karra22]

I hope when people listen to this, they think about how their treatment of people can affect them.... its so sad. What a beautiful soul. I hope she's found peace....RIP

[beetletweed]

i remember watching different strokes when i was a kid and having a crush on dana plato

[solidyahoo]

Clean and sober for over a decade?

[interpolnarc]

Something tells me if it wasn't for the pressure from the show, the Dana will still be alive.

[mozzmanau]

I hope yopu die a horrible death Howard Stern you fucking wanker

[ERICLEEPARKER]

Howard "you dont look near death" how erie

[tronus]

I heard this interview live. The next day she died.

[DKEEBLER30]

very sad she will be missed

[rcleandro2006]

Merda de Estados Unidos.

Se fosse aqui no Brasil, Dana ainda estaria viva.

[entionden]

@rcleandro2006: in Italia também Dana ainda estaria viva, amigo.

[joycollector]

Thank you SO MUCH for posting this! I have wanted to hear it for years.

At this point she seemed like a very sad, weak person who was easily discouraged.... I think she had no one to turn for for guidance after her mother died, and she was lost. She needed people to assure her that she was a worthwhile person and she did not find that here.

[qtgonewild]

i love you dana > this was not a suicide

[saruman84]

She killed herself. You are such a dumbass

[pancho8721]

35.... I'm 29

[hihosilverlining2]

is it true about the accountant? But sounds like she spend much of it herself. Very sad story.

[MusicVideoHotspot02]

i love this girl! so sad it was only a day before. i still miss her 10 years later. LOVE YOU, DANA!!

[joycepoesy]

nossa.... partiu tanto meu coração, saber do nada...
