An Evening with Richard O'Brien - Part 1 of 5 - Captioned

[KristofskiKabuki]

Now I know Richard O'Brian is transgender I love him even more.

[Gypsygirl2113]

LOL he's laughing at his little comment on him being a full blown queen

[SophisticatedLunatic]

There's no words for how much I admire this person. Richard is my inspiration.

[darealleelee]

he has a statue? that's awesome xD

[Fionakiwi]

@darealleelee He sure does, the Riff Raff statue in Hamilton, New Zealand :)

[InBetweenAreDoors]

Damn. That's one fiiine 70 year old

[NickiBratz]

This isnt that long ago and he says "Im almost 70" which is true because he was born in 1942 and is 69. I cant believe how young he looks for his age. Amazing

[luciaatherton]

There is something so sexy about this person--- it’s not just his fashion sense. And he doesn’t age!

[jesustonight]

i love crystal maze

[TheQuentinStuckey]

He is truly a very talented human being. "Rocky Horror" was one of the things that made me accept transexuals and homosexuals for what they are and it's a great musical!! Richard O' Brien is a genius...

[exceptoccupiedtaxis]

I am in love with this man.

[gypsylurve]

What a brill interview. I'm open minded about cross gender and sexuality but I feel a bit more educated. Lovely man.

[unionjacklyn]

His speech on women and being trans...

I started crying. He's a brilliant human being that this crazy earth almost doesn't deserve.

I love him.

[Lizzie549]

I don't give a toss what gender he prefers to be known as, Richard O'Brien is a wonderful, special, very funny and extremely talented guy who millions of people would kill to have a creative brain like his!

He wrote a play nearly 40yrs ago which is still going strong all over the world, and THAT is what I call talent and he will always be the MASTER in my eyes :D

[chorvaqueen]

it's lawrence fletcher D:

[JoshSitar]

I don't care what gender he prefers to call himself, Richard O'Brien will always be a fantastic and brilliant human being to me. A million Hollywood screenwriters couldn't come up with something a thousandth of the genius, originality, and courage of Rocky Horror. And Shock Treatment was great as well.

[Fionakiwi]

@JoshSitar Fingers crossed he makes the sequel he's been working on!! (Apparently Shock Treatment was the 'Equal' :)

[rtvandle]

@Fionakiwi he won't :( its called revenge of the old queen

[DMaddox2010]

@JoshSitar absolutely 

[JoshSitar]

In what year was this made? Does he really still look that good?

[Fionakiwi]

@JoshSitar Lol - only a couple of years ago, and yes, he looks EXACTLY the same, if not better : )

[Lizzie549]

@JoshSitar he still looks very very similar, last time I saw him, he was in a frock with the very same necklace and rocked that look!

[Fionakiwi]

@Lizzie549 I love that necklace too!! :)

[MISSAPBT]

Woo uncle Richard :)

[GimmeKitty]

BRILL!

Love this bloke ... 

[xXxLilMissRachelxXx]

Say hello Riff!

[Starkid51]

@reaklin

O'brien's transgendered, and self described as being neither male or female

[RatherBeKiwi]

I loved watching this interview. It's fascinating to see what makes Richard O'Brien tick and have him explain, in his own words, how "Rocky Horror" came to be..  Nice of you to caption it too.

[mollyarabella]

So happy to finally be able to comment on this video after much exhausting activity in the "Let Richard O'Brien be a New Zealand Citizen!" Facebook group. INDULGE! if you're a fan of all five to six of your senses, in sound and vision of exquisite perfection that permeates all other faculties of your mind, body and spirit. Such is the affect of Richard O'Brien on connoisseurs of the human body, voice, skin, of music, love and passion in it's most potent form.Richard here again unrivalled.*sigh*

[Harriet123P]

I love how he sits. He still looks so good!

[RottenReanimator]

This is great! Can't wait for the rest of this.

[Fionakiwi]

@RottenReanimator Hey, the second part is now live - enjoy : )
