What Sinead taught me is that you have to be prepared to be considered an asshole when u stand up for justice. And that standing up for justice means *nothing* if you only do so when it's convenient.
I think he was wrong...I cant sing or dance and I am funny but I am just a normal bloke who happens to be gay...and I don't want anyone to expect me to entertain them because I'm gay....that's not the way to be accepted
@AbsoluteDarbage Dude, I think you misunderstand Kenny's point. Kenny meant he's a comedian, and he's better off using his talent as a comedian to change people's opinion than marching around. He didn't mean all gay people should be entertaining.
Why is Sinead O'Connor being bashed by people in the comment section?
I'm not saying she's perfect, but I think she was totally right to bring it up. Plus she punctured the boring schmooze-fest that was going on (I'm a tad bemused at the youtube commenter who referred to said banter/book plugging as 'fun'.)
The fact that Everett gave a good, pragmatic response to O'Connor made it all the more interesting.
Flawed socialites disagreeing on an important issue of the time = Good television.
good for Sinead in sticking it to him - And she is beautiful here - Everett was a gay man & he supported Thatcher - A VILE Excuse -
U might say if soldiers might feel uncomfortable fighting alongside a black man. He should have to paint himself white to make the intolerant comfortable!
Sinead is fantastic Kenny was a little taken aback and he handled it very calmy and wisely but she has proved to be a passionate activist and especially against the child abuse prevalent among priests and overcome serious emotional difficulties which is a euphimism for Bipolar Disorder so give her a break people, I'll bet if she watches this back she would agree with everything Kenny said
I love Sinead and I applaud her for bringing the subject up... but she doesn't know when to let it go. On a sidenote, she was possibly the most beautiful thing to come out of the 1990's.
@seanyboycurran I think he handles it fine, he's very honest about what he believes and I think he has some good points. She just keeps saying the same thing again and again, and it seems to have made the whole room uncomfortable.
This i say from a ethnic minority point of self-positioning which is essentially not much different than the homosexual minority point of self-positioning. i would've been to aware of the nessesary conflicts which affects and shapes me emotionally on a daily base to mend in, let alone entertain myself on occasions like that.
"it's also a duty for people in the public eye who are some kind of minority to amuse and entertain (themselves??) so the people who are watching will think "hey he's gay isn't he?", "yea but he's funny.." " Why should i be obliged to entertain them so that they will think that i am allright? I got nothing to proof, why should i? I think Sinead O'Connor was essentially right. How do you behave "normally" with in the margins that the mainstream grants you?
Didn't Kenny Everett handle that situation so well, and didn't get pissed off with Sinead wventhough she hogged an entertaining and enjoyable appearance
I can't make up my mind whether I hate to hear Sinead O'Connor singing or speaking more. Her singing is irritating and meretricious but I think this example of her desultory, pseudo-intellectual, youth culture anxiety delivered in that awful "AA Rowdwatch" accent makes me plump for her spoken word as being the greater ill. Furthermore, if , as someone below suggests, she is "highly intelligent", then I'm Albert Einstein.
@alipitogen You just got a bug up yer ass about intelligent, strong women who voice their opinion "singing or speaking". Oh and Albert you so obviously aint.
Sinead - life is not always a horrendous battle-field, at least not for other people, so please don't bring the rest of us down to your combatitive, "superior" and all-so-serious world view !!
Kenny's appearance in 1983 at that Tory party rally haunted him for the rest of his life. That is why he was so stand-offinsh towards Sinead. Besides, Sinead, as a left-wing looney socialist party supporting everything-that-the-tories-do-even-if-they-came-up-with-a-cure-for-cancer-is-wrong attitude would not subside. She ruined the fun and lightheartedness of this interview by bringing up politics
@MOSTechnology - These Days I think she's lightened up a bit. To be honest, though I disagreed with her Tearing Up of Pope JP's Pic in 1992, I think the exposure of the Catholic Church kinda vindicated her a good bit. And if she were to repeat her actions again today, there wouldn't nearly be as much controversy over it.
Councillor Kevin O'Keeffe who is standing for election to the Irish Parliament on the Fianna Fáil ticket should go and F8ck himself, since he calling for support for a miserable cnut by the name of Chris Andrews, who is also standing for election. The miserable Islamonazi supporting cnut Chris Andrews is a relative of another miserable cnut now deceased, by the name of Todd Andrews.

EUROPOL REPORT: IMMIGRATION A MAJOR THREAT TO EUROPEANS
A European Police Office report has revealed that at least 900,000 illegal immigrants from 3rd World enter the EU every year & 350,000 legal visitors overstay their visas -and that Europe faces major criminal threats from this invasion force.
This massive influx has seen “European citizens and businesses exposed to systematic violence and corruption at the hands of organised crime groups, terrorist groups, and, street gangs"
Skinhead O'Connor is totally screwed up,she's genuinely a sandwich short of pic -nik and Kenny was right to put her in her place.Clause 28 was bought in response to left wing gay acitvists who wanted children taught provocative ideas of gay people at a very young age which is entirely wrong.Parents were the ones who voiced their concern at the time, cos they saw the propaganda side to this issue and no doubt wanted a say in what their children were taught and not a bunch of left wingers!
I think that if you had lived in Ireland when this was broadcast, you would have realised how fundamentally important it was for her to ask a question like this on RTE and fair play to him for trying to answer and addressing the situation. The fact is he had either just been diagnosed or was just about to be diagnosed with AIDS and would be dead less than six years later. And at the time this was broadcast, his good friend Freddie Mercury and his partner were both dying of AIDS
Entertainment was the general idea... Kenny was 'SO' polite it was out of character (fair play to him) Sinead tried to be polite but her ignorance betrayed her.. shes says 'I repsect' but she repsects no-one and thinks her opinion is the only one that matters. Free speech is a wonderful thing but if your an arrogant, self obsessed bint that releases tripe and covers for every album keep your trappy hole shut. Rant over.... she shaved the wrong bit ;)
one of the people in this conversation has the courage of their convictions. it isn't kenny everett or gay byrne. it takes a lot more guts to broach a controversial subject on national tv than play the goon or sycophant.
@sandwichescornertv she is always such a wet blanket, and Kenny handled it so graciously after initially looking a tad embarrassed. it's about appropriate forum or venue. if i wanted to watch people having indepth and somber discussions about government policy, i wouldn't expect to watch it on the Late Late Show. there are plenty of other national TV shows to "broach a controversial subject" on. she tried to catch him on the back foot and failed. R.I.P. Kenny. I miss Captain Kremin's Star Corp
Sinead is snooooze-fest worthy. THank God for Kenny and his light heart. He's right, you speak a thousand more powerful words with just "being" than confrontational angry activist crap! I think he handled her like a professional and put that young whipper snapper in her place. Showed his professionalism and her (failed) attempt at pointing the finger and upstaging!
This only went out in Ireland so being English, I never saw it. I am a MAJOR Kenny fan - but I thought Sinead had a fair point. Kenny's argument was he preferred to make a statement on his sexuality by EXAMPLE - i.e.,using his talent. But his "siding" with theTories was as ill-advised as Condo Rice joining the Republicans. I LOVED Kenny, but I think sometimes you HAVE to make a stand (so to speak) and this appearance was a missed opportunity. He really should have ADDRESSED Sinead's point.
I totally agree with sinéad here, fair play to her. Im a big kenny everett fan but its this kind of soft media shite that gives wankers like margaret thatcher support and power. And I have to say Gay Byrne is the epitome of the soft media in this country. People treat him as though he was grand ould uncle gaybo, he was part of the same fianna fáil right wing system that has brought us into at least two recessions.
after seeing this I just lost a lot of respect for o'conner kenny is right its much better to change attitudes naturaly than with an iron fist you can't force somone to like you you can make them say the right thing but in their heart they still think your wrong .
@nuthouseidiot Actually, Sinead O'Connor is best remembered more than that song, she was mostly remembered for being influential for many Female rock singers for generations to come because of her angst-ridden, emotional lyrics that's really confessional.
Sinead's approach to voicing her issues is as bad as can be. Wherever she makes a valid point, it's drowned by the aggressive manner in which she has made it.
You can't just barge in with your issues like that. Well, you can. But to do so is kind of insulting to the fact that everybody feels strongly about certain things.
It's as if she's an issue whirlwind, destroying all in her path whom she believes have no opinion on anything, just because they choose not to force it down peoples throats.
I was really enjoying this interview until that pasty faced cunt had to jump in and hijack it. Why not have asked him that question in the green room afterwards.
Everett was a Tory with liberal attitudes toward homosexuality... Sinead, however, is a Christian with liberal attitudes to homosexuality. To be fair, the greater hypocrisy rests on her shoulders. Christianity shows a greater level of ideological incompatibility with gay rights than the British Conservative party.
Sinead isn't exactly likeable but well done for exposing his hypocrisy as a gay man supporting a govt persecuting gays - that Tory show of Everett's was a permanent stain on his character
@bersef - saying 'thank god the world is rid of you' is a horrible thing to say about anyone. You may not like him, but all he was saying here was what he believed in regards to what he was doing.
@soeffingwhat And his 'beliefs' showed that he was an effing idiot and along with other effing idiots, has no place on the earth. Sorry if you find that so horrible, but the time has come to call out people for what they are. Moderate attitudes are what is ruining human beings progress.
@bersef - Wrong, it is Hard-Lined and Extreme beliefs that are ruining Human Beings Progress. That crap causes Fights and Hatred. Moderate attitude can mean believing in something, but not in its entirety and hearing the other views out. Being open-minded, as it were. He was merely more 'relaxed' in his views. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever.
@soeffingwhat You are completely wrong. It is moderates that have allowed extreme views to propagate. There is right and wrong when it comes to morals. Moderates are the ones that have let dubious morals into the main-stream. They have caused tremendous damage to human ethical growth. Fact.
@bersef - No, not fact, just your Opinion, and thats a fact. People like you that have an either 'Right or Wrong' attitude tend to be the kind of People who believe that your View is the only way and no other voice counts, which is absolute nonsense. That is what causes hatred of other People, other ethnic Groups and causes clashes. Fact.
@soeffingwhat You're wrong again. But you probably can't help that. It says a lot about you that you find it necessary to assume so much instead of sticking to the facts. Oh well.
@bersef - Don't bother trying to attempt to patronize me with your Bullcrap. Your Post merely validates what I said about you and Self-Opinionated People like you.
i think Kenny was on the right track......poofters are a bit like abbo's....we tolerate them ...some are OK...but overall they give us the shits.
..when we come across people..like Kenny everett.(gay)..greame Kennedy(gay).....Ernie dingo(aboriginal}.Greg Norman (gay)..they aren't winging about #&@*& rights,,,etc....they turn the mood into a positive atmosphere
you think of there people in a good light....negative just puts there people in a bad light. ..as sinead O'Connor did...
I think Everett comes across as really egocentric. Crikey tho, why does she bring up somebody's politics on a television show - ??? But then, why doesn't he speak directly to her? If I were him I'd have told her to mind her own business!!!
@lebartonne ..i agree with...@olliespike . you are a CUNT.....just like sinead O'Connor......a boring... self important... opinionated ...self absorbed ...CUNT...
@sheepsfoot2 .. you don't even know me...you're just like that ollie cunt...the two of you should just fuckin shag and suck each other's dicks....coz you're both pricks that open your mouths without thinking
@lebartonne don't take it personnel....but sinead O'Connor was acting like a prise moll...someones political views are there business....get a bit boring....if every body in the public eye becomes a activist...
OMG, why all the hatred for Sinéad? All she did was ask a relevant question. I mean, really, why would a gay man support the Tories and their anti-gay policies? Huh? She was very respectful aswell. It's not her fault it freaked him out and maybe brought some home truths to the forefront of his mind.
I cringed when that thing interrupted. Fair play to Kenny when he carried on without reacting that self serving bitch and salvaged a few laughs as well.
Is it true kenny that you dare hold a political opinion thats different to mine you'd think britain was a democracy, and is it true that your responsible for the potato famine
Don't look to Kenny Everett for logic. He was a crazy man with a crazy life. I don't care what his political beliefs or sexual preferences were, he made me laugh and that's all that matters..
Gay Byrne and Terry Wogan should get married - they are both damn assholes! Gaybo is just an old woman, without an ounce of integrity. A damn media smarmy asshole. Well said Sinead, but Gaybo is a Tory too, or a Blueshirt.
Oh God the memories!!!! Now I know why I always couldn't stand Sinead O Connor!!! She bombed that piece that was very entertaining and funny up to that point!! She was always such a D4 plastic rebel looking for attention.
It's the freedom to express whatever you want, whenever you want. You clearly don't like that. Everyone must agree with little Kay because Daddy told her so when she was a kid.
I called you a asshole because once again you assumed that she could only play in pubs. SO WRONG! And I don't need a man if they are anything like you!

@nuthouseidiot Actually, Sinead O'Connor is best remembered more than that song, she was mostly remembered for being influential for many Female rock singers for generations to come because of her angst-ridden, emotional lyrics that's really confessional.

O'Connor was looking for a fight and was no match for King Kenny. I think that young lady was born serious.

Sinead's approach to voicing her issues is as bad as can be. Wherever she makes a valid point, it's drowned by the aggressive manner in which she has made it.
You can't just barge in with your issues like that. Well, you can. But to do so is kind of insulting to the fact that everybody feels strongly about certain things.
It's as if she's an issue whirlwind, destroying all in her path whom she believes have no opinion on anything, just because they choose not to force it down peoples throats.

Everett was a Tory with liberal attitudes toward homosexuality... Sinead, however, is a Christian with liberal attitudes to homosexuality. To be fair, the greater hypocrisy rests on her shoulders. Christianity shows a greater level of ideological incompatibility with gay rights than the British Conservative party.

Sinead isn't exactly likeable but well done for exposing his hypocrisy as a gay man supporting a govt persecuting gays - that Tory show of Everett's was a permanent stain on his character

@bersef - saying 'thank god the world is rid of you' is a horrible thing to say about anyone. You may not like him, but all he was saying here was what he believed in regards to what he was doing.

@soeffingwhat And his 'beliefs' showed that he was an effing idiot and along with other effing idiots, has no place on the earth. Sorry if you find that so horrible, but the time has come to call out people for what they are. Moderate attitudes are what is ruining human beings progress.
bersef 1 year ago
@bersef - Wrong, it is Hard-Lined and Extreme beliefs that are ruining Human Beings Progress. That crap causes Fights and Hatred. Moderate attitude can mean believing in something, but not in its entirety and hearing the other views out. Being open-minded, as it were. He was merely more 'relaxed' in his views. Nothing wrong with that whatsoever.
soeffingwhat 1 year ago
@soeffingwhat You are completely wrong. It is moderates that have allowed extreme views to propagate. There is right and wrong when it comes to morals. Moderates are the ones that have let dubious morals into the main-stream. They have caused tremendous damage to human ethical growth. Fact.
bersef 1 year ago
@bersef - No, not fact, just your Opinion, and thats a fact. People like you that have an either 'Right or Wrong' attitude tend to be the kind of People who believe that your View is the only way and no other voice counts, which is absolute nonsense. That is what causes hatred of other People, other ethnic Groups and causes clashes. Fact.

@soeffingwhat You're wrong again. But you probably can't help that. It says a lot about you that you find it necessary to assume so much instead of sticking to the facts. Oh well.

I think Everett comes across as really egocentric. Crikey tho, why does she bring up somebody's politics on a television show - ??? But then, why doesn't he speak directly to her? If I were him I'd have told her to mind her own business!!!

@sheepsfoot2, i'll stop taking things personally when you stop atacking me. calling me a cunt isn't exactly the best way to get to know me.
so until you learn to conduct yourself in a civil manner, i'll continue to have a low opinion of you.
if you don't like her, don't do a youtube search for her. quite simple really.
lebartonne 2 years ago
OMG, why all the hatred for Sinéad? All she did was ask a relevant question. I mean, really, why would a gay man support the Tories and their anti-gay policies? Huh? She was very respectful aswell. It's not her fault it freaked him out and maybe brought some home truths to the forefront of his mind.
