Placebo's Brian Molko: I made it OK for men to wear eyeliner

[anhVOCALIST]

The sad thing is that, still, people go "Ew, guys with eyeliner. Only Brian Molko can do that!"

...

[BellamyJelly]

he's too good to be true. i love his facial expressions. probably i'm melting...

[purpurnena]

i would wear Molko mascara 

[Elleabes]

He wasn't being serious, was he?

[Strifyism]

I Love Brian Molko. <3

[Strifyism]

Brian Molko is so cool.

I like him the most with his long hair no matter whether he wears a braid or if he has open the hair.

I am the sister of Steve Forrest of the drummer reality.

I know now you want don't believe me, but it is true.

I love Brian Molko on everything.

I miss you Steve.

You will remain always in my heart and you will remain always my big brother Steve.

I hope you stay forever and ever with PLACEBO.

I love you Brian Molko and my brother Steve Forrest.

[HopeVJustice]

Eddie Izzard helped! (: Even the film A Clockwork Orange helped!

[ArkanhellMagno]

Molk"EAU" de toilette.... hahahahahahahahahaha cool

[belaAddict]

I would SO buy this perfume^^

[didoodle]

I do believe that Robert Smith (the Cure for you younger one's), beat him by 1 album if i remember correctly, yes i am old, 46 actually. :P

[Strifyism]

I Love Brian Molko.<3

[bethylessthan3]

oh the modesty brian!

i love him to pieces <3

[bethylessthan3]

i love his accent, and he better make that perfume at some point! i'd be wearing it all the time ;)

[twistedviewlabs]

hm. so i guess all those goth & brit pop bands copied brian molko?

yeah...ok

[Android18uk]

@twistedviewlabs brit pop bands didn't wear eyeliner. Brian is being sarcastic anyway.

[ytxcg]

muslim men been wearing eyeliner for ages already. LOL

[hybridfanka]

molko mascara hahah ♥

[ursula812]

Dude what's his secret? His skins so damn flawless. I'm jealous.

[CarolinexCrown]

I'm wondering WHY Brian has better make-up than most of girls that I've seen. Even better than mine.

[rarton]

i always have an orgasm when he speaks i dont know that accent he does is so fuckin sexy!! I LOVE YOU BRIAN MOLKO!! 

[didoodle]

@rarton Honey, get yourself a man! Seriously, that just sounds pure Yukkkkyyyy

[Strifyism]

Ich bin ein riesiger Fan von Placebo Sänger Brian Molko.

Ich liebe seine lange Haare und seine stimme.

Ich Liebe Brian über alles.

I Love You Brian Molko <3

[menarosemore]

They are so funny (:

[sum41linkinpark]

If he comes out with his molko de toilette...oh my god...the smell would send me into multiple orgasms...

[saintjimmygreenday6]

He better bring out molko de toilette cos I'd buy it

[missyshanny007]

love brian hes so cute and funny-miss the short hair tho :( <3 <3

[nymphetaminegirl6666]

Lol, I love Stefan's reaction throughout the video.

[LadySaltstick]

He's all cute. And really sexy...

[BeTheDeathOfMe]

His accent keeps changing when he talks... it's cute.

[katnipuk]

I want to have sex wiht him and I don't really fancy women, yes he is a man but he looks like a girl

[Vita20304]

Brian unique)))))))))))))))))

[Vod77]

idk why but his voice is so smexy! when he sings and when he speaks. gawsh?

[vouzokeftes]

oh i would buy the molko de toilette!

[panzerkeil]

Their grandfathers sunk the Bismarck, defeated the Luftwaffe, retook Burma and died in Normandy for...this?

[humanzeez4realz]

@panzerkeil YES!

[javelin60]

Brian Molko has a WICKED sense of humour! I love it and adore him!

[poliisg]

I want Molko in my toilette ._.

[Blink0zer0]

@poliisg LOOOOOOOOOOOL XD who doesn't? XD

[Wischmopp95]

Usually I LOVE men with long hair, but I think Brian looked much better when he was short-haired :/

He's sexy as hell, though. All three of them are. And I love to watch Steve breathing <3

[pinkthunderwonder]

" this is just my day look" baahahha and with stefs smile! ;D its the best part heehe ^^

[VegaValentino]

Doubt in vanians hetro now he has been married two times and have a kid.

but come on, has he ever sad that he had sex whit a man and plus he never had a boyfreind.

he just fake, Brian Molko is hetro, and whats wrong whit that?

[pinkthunderwonder]

@VegaValentino ya he probably leans on the straight side but ill take his word that hes still bi... come on' he and stef get it on all the time lol. jk i hope not. :x

[satiaguinoyxileno]

i want that perfume! xD

[Hannah1995100]

@0baka0neko0 dude me toooo ^-^

[VegaValentino]

I live in sweden to!

i like placebo to but is not serious, iam a straight girl but i like gay men but i think molko is fake about his bi thing i think he is straight totally but hi trys and its great but he is not bi

[vOoNneE]

@VegaValentino and i think you have no right to put in doubt anyone's sexual orientation, thankyouverymuch.

[impure0purest]

@VegaValentino I agree with @vOoNneE and I have a little more to add on; What are you trying to accomplish here!? Brian's orientation is his business, as are the ones of the people that may or may not be attracted to him

It's insane to come to a Placebo video comment thread and say the idiotic things you've been saying. You don't see us going to The Damned videos talking about how Vanian's pretending to be straight and how we're just not cool with his heterosexuality! You. Are. Ridiculous. >_<

[john41967]

@VegaValentino i soo agree with u!

[VegaValentino]

Plus plus, have some of you emos on this site has seen punksinger Dave Vanians makeup hes a reall cutie, and when he wheres makeup he doesent look gay like this one, and lesbian dont whont to have sex whit, nasty

[vOoNneE]

@VegaValentino haha, you don't get it at all. he's being completely cynical. he does that in 99% of the interviews. if you weren't so busy being condescending and using the word gay as an insult, you'd have noticed.

besides, brian is gorgeous, with or without makeup.

[VegaValentino]

Plus NEW YORK DOLLS, LOVE JOHNNY THUNDERS

[VegaValentino]

eyeliner? is he crazy, i love brian but he is not that famous in usa nobody knows hes name, in sweden we hate him and placebo, david bowie, lou reed, iggy pop, boy george, richy edwards, billie joe armstrong, brian eno. its all before he started, sorry littel man you is one of the last how wheres eyeliner.

[MandaOwl]

@VegaValentino Um, I live in Sweden and I totally love Placebo and Brian Molko even though they're not "famous" here. That includes the makeup. He looks hot with makeup, and I'm sure a lot of fans thought so too and tried it out.

Also, "gay" doesn't really strike me as an insult, at least not for a man who's openly bisexual. I'm a girl and I think he looks incredibly attractive, so he's obviously still appealing to more than one sex if you think he looks hot for men, too...

[pinkthunderwonder]

@VegaValentino LOL no one does know him in america!!! just me hahahaha

[amirali93p]

he looks much more better on live 8 2005 live show...but he is still hottttttt

[amethystella84]

quelqu'un peux traduire en francais?

[Beatlesful]

don't worry Brian you look beautiful lol

[sisiPDL]

U know,U know,U know... =D

so sexy ;D

[katebethune]

@ryanthalion Just for the record, Greenday aren't actual a real band. Their just a pile of shit in faux-punk outfits.

[Cristinath89]

I want that perfume xDD

He's so funny :)

[Cuenca20]

Brian Molko actually got influenced by Robert Smiths eyeliner appearence thats where he got inspired, both great bands focourse ^^

[Rearges]

yep, Bri TOTALLY made it okay for men to wear eyeliner - I wish more guys would actually do it ;)

and DAMN I want this perfume^^

[chicarasmus]

He is such a cuttie i love him!! Thanks for the video! Very funny!!

[julioooe]

i want his perfume!!!

[lucyfair210]

oh god I love him...

[ofxxxthexxxflowers]

He's so funny! I love the way he takes the piss out of himself.

[DontTellTiah]

-fan girls-

he's so *-*

& very ♥__♥

but mostly <33

ahaa, he's really funny too (':

[ryanthalion]

False. Billie Joe from Green Day. Eye shadow, which lead to eyeliner.

[GRACELUVSTOKIOHOTEL]

i'd so buy Molko de toilette ;)

[glompify]

i love the way he can sound "up himself" without actually sounding "up himself" if that makes ANY sence what so ever xD

Molkoforever!

[XxMCRxFANxANNAxX]

' Do you think you were responsible for making it okay for guys to wear eyeliner? '

' Yeah, It's completley my doing. ' *Stefan smirks* lol!

[bloodytear5]

Brian is just adorable!, I'd buy his perfume too. Love his look

[alternativesunshine3]

'it's just my day-look...'

:-D

Brian, i'd buy your perfume!!

[TheMetalCherry]

[AltRockQueen]

[MicaMolkette]

I love it how Brian flutters his eyelashes at 1:08!! Too bad the camera just zoomed in on his face afterwards....

[dannyandnickinc]

i wouls wear that perfume every day o.o

[YEAHMOTHAFUCKER]

Hahahahah Molko is so cute!!! LOVE YOU.

[showroommeryll]

ahahahhahah ahhahahaha ahahhahahaahahahahahahahahahah­hahahhahahahahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh­hh que c'est nul o secours

[MelodysCharme50]

the first men to do it were the egyptians. it is only our new generation that makes differences between men and women. eyeliners to wear is only for gays. and as i grew up in that new generation i am used to that real men do not wear eyeliners which makes the difference between men and gays :-)

[SHIIMSA]

Brian is such a Little Doll!! Love him!!

[bigdima3]

omg, i would be the first one to buy the Molko perfume

[LILYxoxo100]

i dont know why everyone goes so crazy over Brian when he is sat next to steve the most gorgeous guy everrrrr :) x

[arturazoo]

he looks like a woman in her 40's... and his pals... oh well, thanks to his hairstylist for showing up

[kmlars22]

how can someone take full responsibility for that?

soooo many other people did that before him AND at the same time as him. many of whom were in more commercially successful bands

[vOoNneE]

@kmlars22 It's called sarcasm. ;]

[xoxnomusicnolifexox]

Molko De Toilette xD

[VoodooDoll1981]

Molko de Toilette hahahaa :D

[XDeadLikeOurLoveX]

i would do him anyday ;D

[Tayla1500]

[havokisthecure]

I love the face he does at the end haha love him

[SkylarPro]

hellz yeah ! i want it with him always and anywhere, and i'm not a lesbian ;P. to sum up, everybody wants brian :D

[romikthegreat]

Brian is such a slut x

[dthforever08]

oh my god! he is so funny!!!

I would buy his perfume although I'm a female ;)

[Igel232]

hahaha! brilliant! he's adorable!!!

[placebosoulmates]

[Bionic3333]

Molkeau de toalette. Awesome. :D

[Shinkinlyd]

I'd definitelybuy it :D

[JOINTHEPOSSE]

woow yeah Brian! your own perfume! ver sexy! xD ahah I can't wait to ahve it xD

[misty666]

i cant work out if its ironic or not:D

[Phibes87]

I want to have sex with brian and im not even gay

[simionTheOne]

if he cuts his hair like 2001-2003

im in too :D

[iindiie94]

@Phibes87 haha i agree with you

[IWasForced]

@Phibes87 You don't have to be gay in order to want to do it....It just comes natural with him.

[Sebmaster1337]

@Phibes87 lol totally agree

[Rinnetje277]

@Phibes87 not gay...but gay curious ?

[pinkthunderwonder]

@Phibes87 bi-curious is that word ill give ya son

dude if i was a guy youd bet id still want him too

[vOoNneE]

I love it how Stefan has this amused look on his face of "here he goes again" and then starts collaborating. XD

[Melevolentzeroenvoy]

Stop saying "ya now",it's anoying!

[YourSilentWhisper]

love himm

[munebloo]

jajajaja got to love him!

[SEHarpz]

"It's just my day look"! :D I love this man.

[kukuku8]

how old is this video?

[peaceless]

I loove Stef's smile at the beginning when Brian says 'Absolutely, completely my doing' :D

[souldiver101]

I absolutely love Brian. I think he's beautiful inside and out. Just lovely. And he's very intelligent to.

[psychodeathmonkey]

whats with all the gay bashing lately? masculinity has no style or substance. Every guy is pigeon holed as wanting to fuck every girl in sight and not giving a shit about anything else. Real artists are always more interesting and break the assumtions of what someone should be. Brian and Stef seem like great guys, i dont care if their gay, its not like its a bad thing either id kiss brian for making such great music (await getting called something) hahaha

[Maijuni]

he's so sweet... I love him...

[Berishman]

molk-eu de toilette hahaha

[KateDzh]

Brian is so cute! :)

[ninilapoire]

Molko de toilette^^ ahah

Love his face at the end, he's pround of the joke^^

[PoiS0n9iRL]

haha!this is great

he should defintely get his own brand of makeup...i would buy it!!

xD

[HentaiTeddyBear]

omg, molko roxx for sure! xD

[jakemeyer36]

Lol this interview is great! I think their is no doubt that Brian has sparked a little androgyny in musicians today. Every male artist needs a bit of femininity in them. Makes them much more attractive and intriguing. :P

[Kate0408]

Molk-eau de toilette lol I love that man :0)

[ahyi810]

brian is sexy~~~~

[zhmuxel]

I am continuously amused by how many people fail to recognize and appreciate cynicism when it is staring them right in the eye.

[bham0773]

ui sexy beast

[MCRaug7]

what an honest guy haha:) we love you

[guellimots]

I love the way Brian winked his eye at the end!

[kaisyume]

it doesn't matter if they're bi or gay.

brian is bi, stef is gay and steve is straight..

but in my oppinion that doesn't matter.

the music they do is the most important.

they are a great band.

[pierrotxthexclown]

Do we know that Steve is straight get, have they said, Placebo was always famous for being "half gay", is that still the case, I haven't heard anything about Steve being gay or bi, so I assume he's staright, but if anyone has any info on the matter that would be good. :)

[hiheyo333]

yes he is there is an interview with steve and he says i'm the straight one but i dont realy clash.

[pierrotxthexclown]

Thanks xx. Do you think you can send me that interview?

[mpia16]

sorry but is it so important to you??????? i mean, why do everybody care so much about if they are straight or gay? it is not your business anyway...

[pierrotxthexclown]

I was just asking, but I just wanted to see if they have kept to the same trend.

And if someone is openly gay (like Stef), they kind of like to share it with the world.

like when stef wrote "homo" on his chest in lipstick.

Sorry, for offending you, but gays sometimes like to stand up for other gays its what we do.

[MCRaug7]

Amen.

[jazzyjazmunro]

To kaisyume: Agreed. Placebo is a wonderful band, and the band members' sexualities have nothing to do with the talent they have. <3 no h8, fer sure. [:

-Jazz

[changetheways]

what is the name of the "parfume"?

i can't hear it...

[kaisyume]

i think 'Molko the toilette'

he's funny :))

[dubpsychosis88]

Molk-eu de toilette :)

[lkjkorn19]

Brian should get a haircut.

[Fusselche]

i want the perfume of BRIAN !♥♥♥♥♥! :D:D:D

[freakmanXY]

they all look very gay :\\

but i love their music :)

[yumelun]

And the two others ???

[Grade129]

stef is gay and steve is straight.... or so he claims 8DD

[carly4ryanbollman]

is brian molko completely gay or is he bisexual?

[lestat00959]

bi, hes married and has a kid with his wife

[carly4ryanbollman]

really? bloody hell. learn something new each day.

thanks for that :)

[Grade129]

didn't they split up ?

[MissUnpredictable01]

Brian Molko is not gay. He has a kid lol.

[carly4ryanbollman]

yeah i found that one out afterwards in one of the comments further down. Isnt the child a foster child though?

[MissUnpredictable01]

The child is his and Helena Berg's.

These two aren't together anymore though.

Brian Molko is a great dad.

[carly4ryanbollman]

thank you :)

[666serialkiller666]

He is bisexual apprently.

Best of both worlds : ]

[charrrlottte]

he's bi. but not gay.

[joey280689]

i would buy his perfume <3

[molkomaria]

who wouldn't???love him!!!

[GreenKid8]

that`s kinda funnyyyyy

[placeboloverrrrz]

"Molko eau de toilette"

see,THAT would sell out:)

[rayzerTH]

i love the wink at the end, he should reallly do a eye liner and perfume. i'd buy it ; )

[Lotty85]

I think he was being a bit tongue in cheek about the eyeliner thing ; I love Brian, but I also don't think that they were eyeliner pioneers exactly.

[MolkoxLewd]

As much as I love and respect Brian, I don't think he has much to do with the scene eyeliner trend of today. He's huge over in Britian, Placebo is not nearly as big as they deserve to be in the USA, but the US is where the most of these scenester eyeliner bands are.

[annalets]

I'd buy molko de toilette too!! :P

brian we love you <3

[crayonsherry]

lawl

[owoweird]

Molko de Toilette xDDD

defanently would wear that.

[Bluebeans87]

Brian really should do his own brand of makeup haha I'd buy it he's such a cheeky little boy still gotta love him.
