This interview certainly made me cry, but also, it filled my heart with Joy to see Julie react with such dignity and class. I hope and pray that I can develop at least a one millionth of the inner peace she projects. What a Lady !!! -They don't come like that anymore. God Bless you ALWAYS, Julie.
Restart Docters, if you don't know what it is that your are doing than don't do it at all. I cried, she'll get her voice back and I know it.:) what a pitty. Love you always Julie.
Why does Barbra keep asking her when Julie told her that I'd rather not talk about it. That annoys me, I feel so bad for her. She's taking it so well, she's trying to make the best of it. I somehow see tears in her eyes, tears that she's trying to hold back, the further the interview goes, the more the emotion comes.
What a classy, talented and extraordinary lady. The damage to her voice is a great tragedy to her and to the gazillion fans who adore her. I am one of them. Love you, Julie
This is truthfully one of the most terrible things that could happen to a musician. I'm 18 and something similar has happened to me that was beyond my control. I'm a voice major currently, and I'm fighting to sing again. Seeing her going through this is inspirational. It's detrimental, but she's such a strong woman. She gives everybody else hope that even if you can't do what you love again, there's still so many wonderful things in life that you can do. She's a wonderful celebrity role model.
I am sad to hear that Julie cannot sing anymore. However, please be happy that you have sung most of your life and your voice has brought happiness to everyone. I can't sing at all regardless. My vocal is fine, but I got no talent. My case is much sadder :-(
DONT READ THIS CAUSE IT ACTUALY WORKS. YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFT TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE.HOWEVER IF YOU DONT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST THREE VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN TWO DAYS.NOW YOU STARTED READING THIS DONT STOP.THIS IS SO SCARY.PUT THIS ON AT LEAST FIVE VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS.
the hostess went TOO far. I feel so bad for Julie. Luckily she does sing in Princess Diary 2, which means that her voice has recovered at least partially!
MAN, Julie is so classy and collected and gracious in what could have been a total, incoherent weep-fest of an interview (not that I would have ever faulted her for that , incidentally!). On the positive side of a truly horrible situation: she's being a great role model for how to look after your own health...she's still inspiring in her ability to value herself and life and the career achievements already under her belt...She makes me want to hug her every time I see her. :)
I'm about to undergo the same procedure in 1 month. This has left me in pieces. I'm terrified. The last sentence, she's says never being able to sing will change something inside of her forever....I couldn't agree more. This has broken my heart.
I'm a singer and I love Julie Andrews and I cannot even imagine how she felt...if I ever lost my voice I would be devestated. I don't know how she possibly got through all of that. She's such a strong woman and I will always look to her for inspiration :) what a treasure! hahaha I'm like crying right now!
this made me cry. i still am crying. you can see it in her eyes how sad she is. to know that that beautiful, BEAUTFUL voice wont be heard from her now anymore is just devestating. i love julie and i think that her losing her singing voice is bull crap. i just pray that even though she is about to be 76 in october that she will wake up one day and find that voice again. she doesnt deserve that emotional pain. (btw, her eyes have never changed <3)
I hated how Walters just kept picking at her with the last question! She clearly stated that she did not want to talk about it! I love Julie Andrews, i think she is a phenomenal actress, and if she were, in a million years, ever to see this, I have hope that she will sing again. She will always be one of my favorite actresses! Long Live Julie Andrews!!!!
I had the same surgery on my vocal chords (because of genetic issues), and go to the same doctor she goes to now, to fix her vocal chords. She has been such an inspiration to me, and I admire her so much. Finally, my voice is getting better, and it's being compared to Julie's before the surgery. I saw on the news she's finally singing again.
All I can say to the doctor is thank you. You helped me, you healed Julie, who knows what else! Thank you, so much.
god, her voice was so freaking heavenly and rare!! the surgery messed it up? so it was the surgeon's fault then, right? She still sings btw, so i'm glad she didn't completely lose her ability to sing =)
I hate the interviewer so much!! She seemed to want to make Julie suffer or cry to make her show have more morbid curiosity. I mean that was a big lost and her voice is still a legend and she shouldn't have made that questions so directly :(
that brave amazing talented beautiful inspiring woman, you didnt deserve what happened to you. Juie Andrews is so humble and gentle and well spoken she is a true inspiration, godbless Dame Julie Andrews<3
@StuffBurner That's so true. Unfortunately, I think that's what people give up when they take that opportunity to be famous. They give up A LOT of their privacy, though not entirely, when they become internationally recognized. It's sad, but true. That's why I respect actors of Julie Andrews' calibre who are able to keep their personal lives as private as possible when they're that famous.
Oh, my gosh. What a terrible way to end that interview. To have younger Julie singing in the movie, "and I'll sing once more." I think that was cruel. Poor Julie. I don't really like to watch shows like 20/20 and 60 Minutes because the interviewers are always so pushy with questions. Julie said she didn't want to talk about it anymore. THAT should have been the end of the interview!
I remember the first time I saw this on television. I was devastated, and cried even after the interview was finished. This is one of the worst tragedies in the world, and even to this day, I mourn it. Yet her amazing strength proves that you can overcome anything if you confront it. She is now an even better singer because through her books she sings stories to children all around the world.
She is incredibly brave - not many people could answer those questions with such grace and composure. Brought tears to my eyes to see her contemplating such a profound loss. She's an inspiration.
my god, how can people be so annoying and stupid?? everybody knows that her voice is damaged, and everybody knows that it's hard for her to talk about that, then why does that bloody stupid interviewer still ask her about that?? that's very rude of her (i don't know her name but - honestly - i'm not interested in discovering, either) but julie always answers to the questions like a real lady.
poor dear julie, what happenned to her is just sad :(
Although what happened to Julie's voice is an absolute tragedy, I don't think that blame can be entirely placed on the surgeon. Obviously she had to be overusing her voice, or using it in an unhealthy to get to the point of needing surgery. Don't get me wrong, I love Julie.... this is just food for thought.
I'm in tears after seeing this interview. Really. Julie is definitely my favourite actress of all time, and after saw her talking about her vocal problems with that stupid interviewer that should go to hell...I do not know how she managed to hold throughout the interview with that attitude so serene. She really is a lady full of strength. I LOVE JULIE <3
It has been almost fourteen years, and yet I tear up when I hear Julie talk about her desire to sing again. She is a true lady, classy and will always be first in my love of actors.
@mikimoo327 i know i am. singing is like breathing to me and i just think i would die if someone told me i could never do it again. thats probably the bravest lady i've ever seen.
but she does ask what's on everyones mind, which makes her rude.. so i thank her for asking, and i am grateful i am not the one who was given those questions to ask
@lgtvlsqz That's Barbara Walters for you, she does that to everyone. It's the interviewer's job to ask the most intense questions, even if it means asking very personal, almost rude negative ones. It's very annoying but that's her job. Most people, like Julie try not to be phased by it. Julie is specatcular.
I'm a professional singer. Even with all the singing I do in my professional life, sometimes I'll just be hanging around the house and I feel the need to burst in to song. That sounds ridiculous, I know, but it's true. I can't imagine NOT being able to do that. It's such a release. My heart just breaks for her.
there is little one can say when they see for themself that their idol may not sing again. a state of sadness, shock and disbelief crashes over you; and that is just a fan.
I cannot begin to imagine what she would be feeling but if anyone can recover from something like that it will be Julie Andrews; her strength, passion and sheer talent will pull her through. she will always be blessed with the sound of music; and she WILL sing once more <3
There are very few women as classy and respectable as her nowadays, a damn shame if you ask me.......and they didn't just mess up her career, they ruined a part of who she is
@awesomebananna her voice hasn't come back really - she has a new style whereby using a talk/sing technique when she performs. Sadly she is still yet to sing the way she used to or reach high notes.
It surprises me and shocks me when I heard that a famous person like her was "wounded" by an American doctor. I mean, one assumed money would pay for a professional. That's soooooooooooooo sad. I've always loved her as a singer and as an actress and as a person - although I do not know her person, she always seemed to be a Lady. God bless her with a small miracle allowing her to have her voice again and us.
I hate Barbara... she was pushing and pushing it... she wanted Julie to cry I'm sure but I'M SO proud of her for holding it together SO WELL. She IS and will always be the most beautiful voice, FOREVER... regardless of what happens
But you know what? Julie Andrews yes, she "had" a wonderful voice-I will believe that one day a miracle will happen, for me she still HAS a wonderful voice-but she also IS a wonderful actress and person. And the day that she will sing again is not far from us.
jesus barbara fricken walters!!!! she's such a BAD interviewer! CLEARLY we're talking to JULIE here. YES. her voice is a touchy subject...IT'S HER VOICE...oh my god..this whole second half was like taking a knife to julie's back and twisting it with each question!
I feel terrible for Julie here =/ ..I could feel her pain right at the end..she's so strong and such an idol to millions including myself..<3
@flymetothemoon143 I agree with you! She just kept going on and on... Its like Barbara was not going to be happy until Julie said...."I am gonna committ suicide if I can't sing..." What an ass Barbara was...for sure!
I love Julie <3 her voice will remain beautiful for ages and ages. she is a beautiful person inside and out and I'm glad that she is still in the spotlight.
I’ve been respectfully in love with this woman since I was 7 years old! There aren’t many women out there that illuminate such elegance, such poise, such natural beauty. Maybe she can’t sing anymore, but we’ve been blessed and honoured that we can hear her singing a few of her ‘favourite things’ immortalised on film! What a truly lovely, beautiful lady! There is only 1 Mary Poppins. There is only1 Maria von Trapp. Btw, there is only 1 My Fair Lady! ;-) All, in the 1 and only, Julie Andrews!
y'all know that barbra walters doesnt WRITE the questions right? its just her job to ask them. the lovely julie andrews just showed she can handle herself without people flipping nuggets over how 'harsh' and 'insensitive' barbara was. that being said, the qustions the PRODUCERS wrote were a little bit harsh and insensitive. but i absolutely love julie!
Julie Andrews is one of the best singers I have ever heard and it is just wrong and cruel that this beautiful and wonderful gift was taken away. She has touched millions with her enchanted voice and now we may never hear it again. This is a horrible tragedy. Even though it is brutal to us, her fans, can you begin to image how Julie feels? My heart goes out to her. I'm crying as I write this.
how did she get voice problems? like for her to get the surgery? did they say in the interview what caused her to have to get the surgery? she over sing too much?
Great job for Julie to keep her ground when Barbara was trying to break her down to tears. All I can say, is I had tears at the end. The song they had from "The Sound of Music" in the background at the end of the interview just made me cry, because they were talking about how she may never sing again, and the lyrics were "And I will sing once more." What a remarkable and classy lady!
I had no idea that was the reason she stop singing to hear it breaks my heart and I can't imagine not ever being able to sing again I love singing I love Julie Andrews and in some small way I can see how she feels I could never stop singing. I would sue to but I think Julie Andrews is one of the nicest people in the world and I don't think she will sue until she no's if she can sing again or not. We love you Julie and we hope can sing again.
she is very strong to hold her tears but it is a tragedy what happened to her voice and yes she should sue those a-holes who done that to her voice they ruined her singing career and her happiness
It's hard seeing my favorite actress getting irritated by someone who has no right to be pushing her like that. I praise her for not letting Barbara break her, but you can tell she just wants to get it all over with. It's so rude and disrespectful and Barbara doesn't need to keep asking these dumb questions that just require common sense. Julie Andrews has had an unfortunate experience happen to her, but that does not degrade her wonderful acting talent.
OMG this is sooooooooo sad :( u kind of feel like someone staded u right through the heart after watching this :( the loss of Julie's voice is just like someone dying :( :(
God I hate Barbara Walters! She just kept pushing the idea of Julie's voice never getting better! UGH! There are not words to describe how horrible Julie's problem is, it is pretty much a crime to have lost such a voice. But I have heard that she is slowly getting better so maybe there is hope!
this doesnt make me sad at all. i love julie andrews, shes really one of the best. with or without her voice, she is still the best. so why is everyone so sad? it should be enough just to see her smile.
i'm not sure why everyone is getting mad at Barbra Walters for the questions she askes in this interview, her job is to ask the questions no one else is.......its her job!!! the reason all of you people watched this was because of the topic "Julie talking about her voice". now I love julie andrews! but im sure she didnt go into this blindly not know what was going to happen!!!!
Julie Andrews and Jeanette MacDonald--the most heavenly voices ever. And both classy ladies. Thank you, Julie, for all you gave us. I pray your voice will return. You handled Barbara Walter's painful, intrusive questions with diginity and class. you touched my heart....
Wow Barbara Waters is a bitch. At the end she asked what Julie would do if she couldn't sing again about three times, she just wouldn't stop until she got Julie to break.
Barbara, you're a c*nt, and I REALLY don't use that word loosely.
You just completely demoralised one of the greatest women, no no, people to ever grace this Earth. I hope you're proud you bitch. And playing that lyric at the end was so cruel.
Good for you Julie Andrews for holding your own. You're an inspiration to us ALL and you are still my hero, voice or no voice!
This interview certainly made me cry, but also, it filled my heart with Joy to see Julie react with such dignity and class. I hope and pray that I can develop at least a one millionth of the inner peace she projects. What a Lady !!! -They don't come like that anymore. God Bless you ALWAYS, Julie.

@lgtvlsqz That's Barbara Walters for you, she does that to everyone. It's the interviewer's job to ask the most intense questions, even if it means asking very personal, almost rude negative ones. It's very annoying but that's her job. Most people, like Julie try not to be phased by it. Julie is specatcular.

I'm a professional singer. Even with all the singing I do in my professional life, sometimes I'll just be hanging around the house and I feel the need to burst in to song. That sounds ridiculous, I know, but it's true. I can't imagine NOT being able to do that. It's such a release. My heart just breaks for her.

there is little one can say when they see for themself that their idol may not sing again. a state of sadness, shock and disbelief crashes over you; and that is just a fan.
I cannot begin to imagine what she would be feeling but if anyone can recover from something like that it will be Julie Andrews; her strength, passion and sheer talent will pull her through. she will always be blessed with the sound of music; and she WILL sing once more <3

@awesomebananna her voice hasn't come back really - she has a new style whereby using a talk/sing technique when she performs. Sadly she is still yet to sing the way she used to or reach high notes.

kurtthewurt 1 year ago
It surprises me and shocks me when I heard that a famous person like her was "wounded" by an American doctor. I mean, one assumed money would pay for a professional. That's soooooooooooooo sad. I've always loved her as a singer and as an actress and as a person - although I do not know her person, she always seemed to be a Lady. God bless her with a small miracle allowing her to have her voice again and us.

But you know what? Julie Andrews yes, she "had" a wonderful voice-I will believe that one day a miracle will happen, for me she still HAS a wonderful voice-but she also IS a wonderful actress and person. And the day that she will sing again is not far from us.

I’ve been respectfully in love with this woman since I was 7 years old! There aren’t many women out there that illuminate such elegance, such poise, such natural beauty. Maybe she can’t sing anymore, but we’ve been blessed and honoured that we can hear her singing a few of her ‘favourite things’ immortalised on film! What a truly lovely, beautiful lady! There is only 1 Mary Poppins. There is only1 Maria von Trapp. Btw, there is only 1 My Fair Lady! ;-) All, in the 1 and only, Julie Andrews!

y'all know that barbra walters doesnt WRITE the questions right? its just her job to ask them. the lovely julie andrews just showed she can handle herself without people flipping nuggets over how 'harsh' and 'insensitive' barbara was. that being said, the qustions the PRODUCERS wrote were a little bit harsh and insensitive. but i absolutely love julie!

Julie Andrews is one of the best singers I have ever heard and it is just wrong and cruel that this beautiful and wonderful gift was taken away. She has touched millions with her enchanted voice and now we may never hear it again. This is a horrible tragedy. Even though it is brutal to us, her fans, can you begin to image how Julie feels? My heart goes out to her. I'm crying as I write this.

Great job for Julie to keep her ground when Barbara was trying to break her down to tears. All I can say, is I had tears at the end. The song they had from "The Sound of Music" in the background at the end of the interview just made me cry, because they were talking about how she may never sing again, and the lyrics were "And I will sing once more." What a remarkable and classy lady!

I had no idea that was the reason she stop singing to hear it breaks my heart and I can't imagine not ever being able to sing again I love singing I love Julie Andrews and in some small way I can see how she feels I could never stop singing. I would sue to but I think Julie Andrews is one of the nicest people in the world and I don't think she will sue until she no's if she can sing again or not. We love you Julie and we hope can sing again.

It's hard seeing my favorite actress getting irritated by someone who has no right to be pushing her like that. I praise her for not letting Barbara break her, but you can tell she just wants to get it all over with. It's so rude and disrespectful and Barbara doesn't need to keep asking these dumb questions that just require common sense. Julie Andrews has had an unfortunate experience happen to her, but that does not degrade her wonderful acting talent.

Barbara, you're a c*nt, and I REALLY don't use that word loosely.
You just completely demoralised one of the greatest women, no no, people to ever grace this Earth. I hope you're proud you bitch. And playing that lyric at the end was so cruel.
Good for you Julie Andrews for holding your own. You're an inspiration to us ALL and you are still my hero, voice or no voice!
