The Runaways - Cherie Currie Interview

[707kristen]

What the fuck after every word they go like "ouh" freaking awkward...

[CherryBomb076]

Can anyone translate?? Lol that's annoying wen idk wut Thier saying lol

[angelinabier]

this japonese don't shut up

[xTheQueensOfNoise]

Well...This interview was quiet akward. Cherie looks bored and uncomfortable.

I love how at 0:32 Sandy smiles towards the camera :)

(R.I.P.)

[LesaSilvermore7]

I feel like all of them are like "Uhhh..."

[pricelinnnne]

They keep saying that she's cute. Agreed.

[CrimsonNdClover]

Wow a 1 question interview. Jesus, if I met Cherie currie she wouldn't b able to shut me up!

[Fancybuilder006]

I love her so bad, mostly because I recognize a lot of her personality in me.

[alwaysopen]

I think the Japanese women should be kicked off TV.

[SophieTJonas]

Lmao at cherie's face like wtf?? Then she just walks away haha!!!

[eg463665]

awwwk-warrd.

[TheDowntown86]

Asians...lol. So weird.

[Sk8erGirl2k8]

Awkward much? Cherie your just too cute :)

[pixelated111]

LOL at the end...Cherie walks away: "fuck it I can't stand waiting for them to speak English again"

Japanese lady opens her mouth to ask question and gestures towards Cherie...but there's no-one there

[littlem1988]

@pixelated111 Actually no, she was introducing their next song (neon angel) at the end and that's why she gestured. But yeah I completely love Cherie's reaction :L

[pixelated111]

0:24 Demo Sexy

[CanIKeepYou96]

she was so cute when she said "all gettin' in trouble, that's for sure."

[FRANKGG11]

I just watched the movie, could not turn it off. Great story, I could not help but feeling sorry for these little girls. Best scene, the look on Joan Jetts face when Cherie Curry is on the phone during a radio interview. Great acting.

[CrimsonNdClover]

I LOVE THE RUNAWAYS!!!!

[DanaKayParis]

Top!!

[blackjakko]

this is hilarious. Cherie is looking sooooo uncomfortable standing there waiting for them to speak to her in English. it's so amazing that they were able to do this kind of thing and be soooo young. I just can't imagine it.



[beatlemania871]

cherie is so awsome! She makes chainsaw art.

[pluntze2001]

Thanks so much "Cherie O" -- whomever you are -- for posting sooo much terrific archival footage of THE RUNAWAYS; it's all superb!!!

[CherieO]

@pluntze2001 You're very welcome!

[SoulSexCo]

OMG, she was so fucking hot. :D

[steeplepossum39]

Well ok they are not rude,I must have misinterpredit this.

[steeplepossum39]

I think these two women are bloody rude speaking another language in front of the Runaways.It would be hilarious if cherie spoke back to them in their language.They could have said all of this before coming on stage and speaking a foreign language,and I am sure this embarassed The Runaways.

[Steve99jp66]

@steeplepossum39 Well, seeing as how it was a JAPANESE television show, filmed in JAPAN for a JAPANESE audience, why should they be speaking English most of the time? I'm fairly certain that the girls were told the format of the show, that after the song the ladies would come out, gab a little, and then ask a couple of questions in English. Cherie doesn't seem to have a problem with it.

[btamills]

that was an awkward interview

[NeonAngel0714]

lol at Sandy's face 0:32

[felicityh20]

i luv how they look in the beginning wtf r they saying lol

[UrNewsForecastDaily]

0:23 cherrie is like...the fuck are they saying...

[arealOpia1991]

@UrNewsForecastDaily i actually totally agree with you - i found kristens face more similar to cheries when she was young and joan jets more similar to dakota fannings - you just needed to swap dakotas and kristens hair and eye colours but instead they played the opposing roles cos of their hair type ... how superficial ... never watched the movie and never will -- discovered the runaways before i discovered the movie and i much prefer learning about the real deal from their own experience x)

[OtoParkour]

what?! What this japanese ladies are talking about?

[morganeatsairplanes5]

0:50 it looks lik she rolled her eyes. like "come on i aint got all day" lol . i'd be aggervated. they're like" come over here" and they continue with the conversations. cherie's like realyy?

[morganeatsairplanes5]

they're standing there speaking japanese and all the girls are laughing and like "wtf"

[EleanorAlys]

Those two women just carrying on their own conversation completely oblivious of the band lol

[ahadnagy167]

it's different doing an interview, than singing. also, everyone caalled upon Cherie for everything and the other girls didn't like it, so it's perfectly understandable that she was uncomfortable

[x0xhoneybee0x0]

she looks so uncomfortable lol

[Sk8erGirl2k8]

I WANT CHERIE'S HAIR! xD

[TheZeldagirl10]

@Sk8erGirl2k8 I KNOW! So do I. XD

[Sk8erGirl2k8]

@TheZeldagirl10 Hahaha :')

[ilovejoanjett13]

THIS IS SO FUNNY!

[MermaidBlueFins]

I always smile, when the camera pans to Sandy and she notices and moves so the camera can see her better and she flashes a smile. RIP Ms West.

[colorheartedgirl]

i think cherie looks a lot like kristen stewart here



[KT145KT]

@colorheartedgirl Thats what I was thinking!

[colorheartedgirl]

@KT145KT they shouldve had kristen play cherie instead lol..

[BeautifulMioceah]

them asians was talkin shyt lol thts why they kept laughing lol

[kurtiejizzerp18]

she looks so uncomfortable standin there while they speak japanese hahaha

[FayGoesRawr]

She was 15. In interviews, she talks about the japan tour and says she was 15/16. But hey I might be wrong ^.^

[Sk8erGirl2k8]

she was 17 guys. Not 15 or 18 xD

[dukedoll1]

They were all like WHAT THE FUCK?!?!?! They were probably soooo ready to get out of there.

[pimpsonparade]

Hell, the interviewers did most of the talking. Haha, look at poor Cherie. She obviously looks uncomfortable. I mean, who wouldn't be in that situation?

[blackhorse099]

cherie is so pretty and looks so cool! love her speaking voice too. she's standing there like, "ok asian ladies....whatever."

[HBK1337]

@blackhorse099 no shes not, shes being really nice to them.

[blackhorse099]

@HBK1337 no she's being nice you're right, i just meant she's kinda like "i don't understand what you're saying but ok" :) haha she's really beautiful too

[thebiggestwilighter]

she was 15

[alexboril]

she was just 18!!! oh god!

[GothyKitty666]

@alexboril When they were in Japan, she was 16

[thebiggestwilighter]

@GothyKitty666

well that wasnt in the film lol

[colie25100]

This is crazy. Funny!

[cbgmf]

Cherrie looks like Avril Lavigne. If Avril was a true rocker (I'm sorry to say that, but she isn't).

[Mileykaaa]

lol xD 

[nightmarekidforever]

cherrie is just standing in the middle of the asian chicks thinking wtf are they saying

[Mehluv33]

Haha she looked so uncomfortable and bored

[bb3840]

lol cherie looks like kristen stewart she should have done double roles instead of sakota who looks nothing like her

[mofokinTeddy]

@bb3840 she rlly does look l ike her lol

[robtambor1z]

Cherie Currie is so freakin hot, she is a dream cum true

[partygirl209]

Cherie is so awesome!!

[jcali619]

I cannot believe these kids were 16 and had this level of performance. Awesome.

[Sk8erGirl2k8]

wow. they all looked so bored. :L like im guessing if the interviewer is speaking another language your not gonna really get it but damn.. they like *yawn..* "what do we do now?" kind thing just look at the way there standing :L and poor cherie she looks like shes thinking "oh dear god.. what are they on about..."

Interviewer: "what have you been doing since runways?"

thats hilarious :L

[mvsmasssage]

She looks so uncomfortable.

[LiyahAmalia]

i fall in love with her smile 

[joshgallman1]

AWKWARD!!!!!

[maydayxlove24]

lol how awkward.

[rrhone]

WTF kind of interview is this? lmao

[skcmz628]

I can't believe that shy girl doing the interview gets up and sings Cherry Bomb in a corset. She is too cute. <3

[Stephjackson10]

they are portrayed so well in the movie

[MermaidBlueFins]

@MrJdcraig11 if you notice out of the five characters of the band, Cherie, Joan and Sandy have more lines. Sandy of course is deceased so she had no say in what her protrayal would be. However I think Sandy would have been proud of how the movie went. She loved the band very much.

[MermaidBlueFins]

I like when Sandy notices the camera and she quickly smiles. :D

[MermaidBlueFins]

@MrJdcraig11 I read it was because Lita didn't want much involvement in the film, same as Jackie Fox. Whom didn't want any part of the film what so ever hence the character of Robin Robins aka Jackie Fox. Not sure about being high during the concert.

But it was funny that she walked off during the interview lol.

[shelski72]

Poor Cherie, she's like "what the fuck do I say?"

[MetalHeart8787]

just a note for what they saying,

they are young aren't they?

they are 17 - 18 yrs old.

they are young & very sexy.

what have you been doing before you stated runways? LOL!

[redlipstick94]

Did Cherie say she danced on American Bandstand?

[stabbings]

well, that was awkward. but i loved it.

[NeonAngel0714]

hahaahahaha!!!!!!!!! Cherie's like what the fuck's happening?! Can someone pls. get me outta here??!!

hahah!!!

[00hottopic00]

lol theyre like wtf????!!!!! xD awww haha i wish i was born back then

[fiftythirdand3rd]

I would like to give them the time.

[msmellymel]

Could they be ignoring Cherie anymore? Jeez, not even using a translator. As a teen girl, if that was me, I would have started making faces behind their backs at them. ;)

[mamawolf81]

They are so rude!

[TheCherryBomb22]

Lol, at 1: 45, Cherie just look like my history teacher :/

[lilithzombie7]

@TheCherryBomb22 then your history teacher is fucking hot!

[gayboylaca]

Can anybody who understand Japanese tell us what the ladies are saying?

[knobl31995]

haha Cherie's like "get me the fuck outta here "

[HuasoPodrido]

Samurai Rock!

[wetwithlife]

The japanese are super sheltered from talking about sex publicly. I dated a girl that was half japanese 1/2 german and raised in japan. she told me a story about guy friend of hers who asked her" why is it blue?" and she said "why is what blue?" he said " you know...... your period." He thought it came out blue because of the blue liquid they use in tampon commercials. WOW !? Japan / Cherie Currie / Cherry Bomb / first sceen in The Runaways movie = period story.

[shamuroxy]

that would be so awkward! haha

[Quaberr]

1:12 she looks like kristen stwert

[GirlOfRiot]

They all are like "wtf are they saying?"

[againstyou7]

hahahahahahah this is excellent.

[stevenmcnair1897]

I like her. real balls.

[viciouspistols]

the only word i understood was 'kawai' which means 'cute' hahaha aww :)

[marcussilvamgs]

0:25 i love how Joan is like "Look at my fucking badass pose, fuckers".

[simscrzy]

Oh man. I love Cherie. And Joan of course. :)

[gibagang]

The girls are kind of WTF are these japs saying.....lol

[SamanthaCarterFan01]

I don't think she knew there where interviewing her

[MsKatilicious]

lmaaoo. 

[AndDontYouForgetThat]

i love the awkwardness.....

[HansBeimler]

nice girl... she was the most beautiful of all Members of The Runaways

[Omniculler]

@HansBeimler Yeah they're all beautiful, but Cherie is the best no doubt.

[MrRopucha]

Hai! Hai!

This was...umm...I don't have anything to Japanesse, but...C'omon, Cherie!

[bianca9puppy]

1:52 "Where the fuck did she go?"

[SilverAukahzy]

All I hear them say is "kawaii this, kawaii that" XD

[candikane21]

She looks like Kristen haha

[Omniculler]

@candikane21 Actually Kristen looks like her.

[Aleksylie]

Haha the girls are all smiling hahaha

[KandJloveTOKIOHOTEL]

her smile kinda looks like Kristens. :)

[lessdone]

Cherie didn't just walk away, she apparently heard the host introduce the next song to the audience. (Correction and elaboration) the viewers got the subtitle that Cherie used to be on American Bandstand but left out the bit about getting in trouble. 0:34 We were just told that we were cute. Yes, they called us cute. Are we being looked down by 17 year olds? Yes, I'm a mother. And mother is strong. Is that right? Shall we ask them? (meaning the next question on the list) please (to Cherie)

[celebrant9]

@lessdone

Thanks for clearing everything up, man!

Sounds logical although I still find it a hilarious "interview".

They got it right about Cherie being cute though!

[lessdone]

cont'd from below - 1:41 "She used to be a dancer. But she is very cute isn't she?  I can't believe she dances in such a sexy way. Very true. (To the audience) And now lets hear them do another powerful song, this is Neon Angel, please." So the women never let the audience in on what Cherie was saying about being on American Bandstand and everyone getting in trouble. They were very self-conscious about being the age of their mothers but were called cute by the band.

[lessdone]

cont'd from below - translation is not perfect but you get the drift. (In front of Cherie.) 0:46 "Ok, I'll start, I think the audience would be interested in asking about the fashion style. Yes me too. Yes I'd like to ask" How did you get the idea of your fashion, etc. 1:14 "They do what they want on stage. Its that they are young. How wonderful. I'll ask the next question. Yes. I'd like to ask what were they doing before forming the group The Runaways." What have you been doing, etc.

[lessdone]

"They are so powerful, the studio might break down. They are the idols of the young, the Runaways. How powerful they are. 17 and 18 year old. Their faces are cute but when they are playing they are scary, powerful. Even the smallest movement is very sexy. The drummer has such intensity its wonderful. She has such muscles, almost scary to approach. But they just told us we were cute. I guess we appear younger to 17 year olds. Mother be strong.Yes, please this way (brings Cherie forward)"

[lessdone]

The disconnect between the 2 idiot hosts and Cherie is so palpable its embarrassing. These days when foreign performers do live interviews, an exclusive translator is provided separate from the presenters and interprets to the performers everything that is being said even when they are off camera.

[Omniculler]

It's like just when I think Joan's the most adorable, I see Sandy top her and then Cherie does and so on. There is no final answer. :)

[Omniculler]

The two hosts are speaking Japanese then surprise Cherie when they finally pull her up and speak good English.

"It's all our own style...you know..." *blank look* (I dunno we just do what we want)

(could this be more awkward? We're all just sitting here waiting while they talk to each other)

Two questions...not much of an interview, but I still loved it.

[lovemichaeljackson98]

I going fucking mad! That guitar is a fucking pice of art!!! If i ever get another electrical guitar it will be a gibson jes paul gold finnish, white pickguard its fucking awsome!!

[lovemichaeljackson98]

All the jibberish in between the questions must be so fucking frustrating!!!!

[ARareAbnormality]

Lol, I love how she walks off. And yeah I can see how there are resemblances between Cherie and Kristen, the shape of their faces, noses and lips. Cherie is very beautiful. I love it when they first show her, and she smiles.

[musclecars60]

"you are so right, cherie really resembles kristen, not necessarily the looks but her mimics and voice."

I'm pretty sure Kristen has seen all of these interviews and mimics THEM. Kristen wasn't awkward as a little kid at all. It's a persona she's decided to adopt.

[peacelovandacting]

this is hilarious!

[princesssassy19]

i bet cherie was like ''what the fuck are they saying???'' hahahha

[paribayn916]

what a odd interview lol

[Catchicken89]

Must've been so awkward for the Runaways without somebody translating what the Japanese ladies were saying back into English for them.

I'm beginner Japanese, but I picked up talk about them being cute, I heard chotto (small), at the start they said they're only 17 and 18. They spoke too fast for a bit there, and a lot of hai, ne, and sou desu ne (basically agreeing and showing they're listening to each other). That's all I got :/

[backpacker74]

@Catchicken89 lol, i'm a beginner in japanese too, and i also got only the same as you did!

but i can imagine how flashy, beautiful and sparkling those girls must have been for the japan of the 70's. it was great that they made it there, the presenters are for sure very excited to have them there!

[runawaysluver70]

What are these ladies saying? Could someone maybe translate? Well anyways, Cherie looked so cute! love those cheeks..

[michellestmarie]

Let's tear them apart and eat them for lunch! HEHEHEHEH

[hypgroove1234]

i cant understand Japanese language but some comical subtitles would be WWWonderful!! =) 

[dumont1957]

Love those bemused smiles of Cherie and Sandy in the first 30 seconds...!

[VampFreakB4Twilight]

Joan's like Wtf are they saying haha

[karkkiliininam]

poor cherie! xDD

[demonhoopa]

I love how akward the band looks while the two women are talking to each other for a prolonged period in Japanese. They kind of cool and wonderfully dorky at the same time. Love me some Runaways.

[wirklichdoof]

I think it's funny that no one in the band knows what they're saying :)

[twigagawizard]

"hahahahaha they dont know what we're saying. cherrie has a big bootie. agreed."

[ArittakeNoAiDe]

akwaaaaaaaard. xD

[sivbritt]

hahahahahahahahahahahahhahahah­ahaha the funniest thing ever!!!!!

[twigagawizard]

I think the girl who plays Marie Currie in the movie looks more like the real Cherie Currie

[GaryG660]

@twigagawizard I totally agree, but I think they were more interested in Dakota Fanning's name.

[celebrant9]

I swear this interview gets funnier every time I watch it:

a) Jackie and Joan at 0:25 > bored as hell, lol

b) Sandy itching to play throughout the whole godamn thing,

c) Cherie rolling her eyes at 0:52 and then she's taken aback by their question, loooooooool

d) and of course, her epic exit, she's like "ooookay now" and the interviewers didn't even realise she's gone, bwahahaaa.

Brilliant clip through and through!

And Cherie is uber cute <3

[MsCherry70]

i agree,after watch the RUNAWAYS movie,i think Kristen Stewart did a great act as Joan jett.. Cool!!! like it...:D

[celebrant9]

Cherie's smile at 0:22.

Aw!!!!!!!

[haitipi]

@celebrant9

I got 0:24, but yeah, AW!!!!

[marinelli115]

wow.. cherrie currie actually looks like kristen stewart. lol XD

[dancebutterfly20]

the ladies should have spent more time on the interview and less time talking to each other in Japanese. I think that's what pissed Cherie and not just her...did you catch the expression on Joan and Sandy's faces?

[haitipi]

@dancebutterfly20

They were just kids and seemed to be pretty confused. It was like they were wondering if they were expected to be fluent in Japanese for the interview. Remember, this was 1977, Rock TV was still new in Japan.

[XxHeadfirstForHalos]

Cherie doesn't look very happy to be there. And it looks like she's had a few drugs.

[chickapac]

@isabelletrixxwood,i was thinking the same thing!!

[jenmh86]

wow, cherie really does look like kristen!

[runawaysfan4ever]

cherie looks so awkward and board she rolled her eyes twice ! can you put what the ladies said in english !!!

[arrie66]

@runawaysfan4ever At first they talk about their ages and how young they are but how sexy they look. They say that they are cute like a million times (listen out for for the word kawaii haha). Then they go on to say that it's amazing how adult-like they look and perform for people so young. That's basically it in a nutshell (I speak Japanese but I'm not natively fluent).

[ThrashUnreal1000]

Cherie?!?!?!!?!? wow! She's 15 or 16 there and she looks pissed by the Japs or maybe to many drugs.

[therunawayslover]

cherie is so cute here.

[ZroPoint]

lol she just walks away

[brightbite]

@ZroPoint She also has her arms crossed; she seems very uncomfortable. Maybe there is some shyness under there. She speaks differently from how she performs. Her body language says stay away from me.

[TheMclees]

In the book Cheri said she never performed loaded

[justpeachy918]

@TheMclees She said it started that way. It goes later to explain how she snorted whatever she had before she would go on

[jp3design]

awkward!

[EnchantedSilence]

She is so pretty it's unreal.

[mrsloveandbeauty]

cherie looks very uncomfortable! lol!
