Actresses Roundtable: Lady Gaga, Glenn Close, Regina King, Rachel Weisz, Nicole Kidman | Close Up 

😂😂

Same

I don’t know exactly why but.... Kathryn Hahn just irritates me. Maybe she seems so needy and neurotic? I know the “ if you can’t say anything nice, don’t say anything at all”..but I wonder ..does anyone else have a similar reaction to her?

@@eileenmccarthy7392 I think some of it is the parts she has played and maybe how she gets steered in interviews. And she seems to be changing over time. I mean she isn't the deepest person I have seen but I don't hate her. And there always seems to be that one person that shouldn't be on these panels. She is for sure the one on this one. Nothing she has done even comes remotely close to the rest of these women and I think she knows it. I bet Gaga thought it was her since she has little experience but it isn't. Both her work on AHS and her movie she just knocked it out of the park. And like she has said, she is trained actor she just never got to do it before.

@@biteme263 *Agatha

I might just watch it all just for that

Yes!!!!!!

@Tomi Igo YES

*music from Carol playing*

Yess

And look at her now. 😍 Amazing.

@@tathan201120 right! Sad part is her name isint even in the title did you notice?

She got a girl crush on Rachel Weisz 😄

@@amy_yoshikawa I don’t blame her lol

She absolutely deserves to be on the title. She’s amazing!

It was Agatha all along will take care of that

Meeee

Especially as she is both the first and last lady to speak!! Shocking! It was Kathryn all along :-)

unprofessional on the part of THR

In fairness to the interviewer, he's doing a pretty good job of sitting back and letting them talk, only stepping in to provide little shifts in the discussion etc.

Definitely noticed that. I love when a moderator lets the interviewees direct the conversation if it's relevant.

She was listening, watching, observing, feeling everyone out and getting their perspectives. This is a sign of an intelligent woman.

@@bluluckyduckie B4 the STAR IS BORN movie, I never paid much attention to GA-GA. I always just considered her another one of those cookie cutter pop singers who flood the market these market these days. But, that woman is talented! Hey, you gotta be a dam good singer for Barbara Streisand to notice you, and THEN INVITE YOU TO DINNER AT HER HOME!

Unicornbaby23 also she is a goddess.

She is thank you Mike!😘

and also one of THE most underrated actresses EVER. When she is in a movie...her MALE costars win Oscars. She is so good, she elevates the performance of others.

Regina King is very talented. - Does my comment bother you?

@@DJG0214 definitely. Beautiful eyes. There's a vet where I live who looks just like her.

She's absolutely beautiful!!!! She's been one of my favorites since Jerry Maguire. I just love her.

this moment is a vortex. Thank you!

Yes Nicole Kidman and her husband have been there for Gaga since 2010 2011 Grammys, she always praised for Gaga’s performance

One witch to another

@@sherryzumo1823 ?

And that’s why I love watching these round tables. These women are in awe of each other.

sherry zumo sPoOkY iLluMiNaTi

There are leading that movement, but yeah that type of question just goes for women, men take other questions like making up their personalities on films and all that stuff, but they should be talking about that

Miguel Machado no i agree, but if they’re going to ask the actresses they should also ask the actors, men like terry cruz and corey feldman have shown it’s a men’s issue too.

Viactaire Sevilla dude I agree they should ask the women about it, but as they’re asking them (as the OPENING QUESTION) they should also be asking the men.

They don't raise the issue women will complain, they do raise the issue women complain. 🤷

Carl Rees did you read my comment? i don’t want hem not to bring it up, i want them to raise the issue with the actors too.

Youre right but cmon man the #metoo movement like just happened. It's not out of line to bring it up to a full round table of female actors no?

Because they are the ones who know how it's showing up. We should not give two shits about what a man says about a womens issue. Only that they support it and that is it.

I would be inclined to believe that you are a man, and in that aspect, one that has put 0 thought on what being a woman means in today's world and how he afects that and he is affected by that.

@@cesaroviedo6345 I'm actually a woman and I believe you may have misunderstood my point. The metoo movement is incredibly important and I definitely love hearing these intelligent women discuss it. However, I do think it could have been handled a little better. These amazing women deserve an opportunity to discuss their work in-depth. I think a discussion on metoo could have been added onto that, instead of taking time out of the professional discussion to do so.

@@BardocksSynphony It's not out of line at all, but I feel like the women got less time to discuss their work than the men did which seems a little unfair. Imo it would have been better to have a separate discussion on that very important issue :)

I had the same thought! Have them each pose a question to the others and then give an extra to both the most seasoned and the newest on the scene so everyone does one and they do two?!

Agreed!

He absolutely sucks as an interviewer.

Yeah i totally agree. Moderator not needed

Don't agree a mediator gets the conversation going.... think the actors appreciate that .. why not just enjoy

I haven't really known much of her nor do I think I've seen her in film but I am so looking forward to doing so and seeing her in WandaVision later tonight.

This comment aged like fine wine.

Yes she is underrated

The way she looks at Rachel Weisz UGH

Love her and this interview made me love her more. All of them are great.

and get Rachel's gown while you're at it!

Jo S absolutely!

more like get a GF lol

katkowalski314 equal opportunity lol

The way she looks at any of these actresses, really. She seems to be in such an awe to be there lol

Elena Betti she’s so right

Listen closely to Kathryn Hahn say the word delicious. Funniest thing ever.

Elena Betti disgusting propagandist

Ana Souhen 👌

Mad Max Oh God Hahahaha Triggered much??

Lady

@@wilberhirthe4228 what

Gaga does make things better, she’s brilliant, wildly intuitive and a genius.

You are right. It helps since she seems more drawn to acting than actual singing and that's ironic with that gifted voice.

She was very insightful in her comments and I loved it.

Gaga is one of the most interesting women of my lifetime I think. I thought she was such a weirdo when she first started getting popular. However the more I learned about and saw her the more I fell in love with her. I don't think there is anything she couldn't do if she wanted to. And she is so nice on top of it. Pink is another one that I think is pretty amazing. Neither of them really sing the kind of music I like ( I am a older male) but they have so much freaking talent.

Yeah this guy interviewing is a bafoon

She's often compared to Meryl. I find Meryl sooooooo pretentious in interviews. Glenn is a legend.

Hadeel Alshamari Ironically my admiration for Glenn Close started in a movie she made with Meryl Streep; “The House of The Spirits”. Glenn acting stole Meryl’s spot light in my opinion.

@@marias7599 I always thought Glenn Close should have been Oscar nominated for that film. She was absolutely heart breaking in it! But the movie itself was pretty weak so it never got much awards traction.

Glenn Close is actually way better than Meryl in terms of ACTING. Glenn did a lot of different roles and all slayed them. Meryl is just closer to the people in Hollywood that's why she's getting all these oscars. When in fact, the 2012 best actress was actually for Glenn. Albert Knobs is million times better than Iron Lady.

me too sis. me too

I thought it was too distracting

ok improve your concentration skills then

She's like the friend we all need

my god, yes

I like her enthusiasm, too, but sometimes it seems a bit ingratiating.

perfectly said. I love this.

CharLton Basson Yes she seemed very child like and in awe! I really like her!!

Glenn and Gaga had the most energy and articulation. I thought Rachel cut to the chase quite smartly in her remarks. No one bored me!

Very well said! Agree about Lady gaga, although Ive known that she has a deep, thoughtful, inciteful, vulnerabile side about her for while now. What I found interesting was how she was so engaged, And really seemed to soak it all in and value the rest of the women's advice and insight from their storied careers and experience with acting. Although she is "new" to acting, I was still very impressed with her answers and self awareness for it being her first film. Im very excited to see where her acting careers moves to, especially since she has the talent to combine her music career into anything she does. Shes a force to be reckoned with, in my opinion. I also really enjoyed everybody else's answers and for the women I am not as familiar with, this made me want to see more of their work!

+Razzles819 i agree a 1000%

It’s not about comparing because I’m totally agains that but, I would say Lady Gaga is more focused on nurturing herself first so she can nurture other better and I like that. And Angelina thought that nurturing others would do it for her and I feel she’s struggling with that. I could b wrong.

@@marias7599 I agree. And she's very open about her mental issues, so it definitely comes from a place of healing herself and learning and growing to then give that experience and care to the world

38:28 Nicole turning around to Regina and saying "I love her" about gaga, with a big smile..just warmed my heart so much. i love how supprting and loving they are to each other.

Exactly both males dressing up like women

@@marias7599 wow great observation, I totally agree

I thought she really wanted to prove to the others that she had acting qualification but she didn't state it in a pushy way so yes I would agree she's very eloquent.

"Lady Gaga IQ is estimated at 166, which is considered as a genius and in top 0.1% the population of the world." Stephen hawking's iq was 160 and einstein's iq is estimated to be about the same as hawking. that would set lady gaga's iq to be higher than both.

@Lestat Luka the reason why you haven't accomplished anything with that iq so high is because you're here in the comment section fighting people just having a conversation. I'm not even a gaga fan lol it was just to prove how smart she is, not saying that she's more important than any of the two aforementioned.

Gaga got in Tisch School of the Arts at NYU at the early age of 17 years old when only a group of 20 people get that chance to enter early, she is a genius! And the way she handled her career, putting a deep concept and meaning behind every live performance she did, every fashion outfit had something to do with the visuals she envisioned for each album of hers and specifically each single she released, from the clothes, to the music video to the live performances, the red carpets, the fashion from Hotel to her cars letting paparazzi take her picture so the media focused on that and not her personal life, everything was so well thought, genius! And you can't deny every other pop star wanted to imitate her style, fashion & performances after her, before no musician was seen wearing high couture from designers, after her every award show was full of crazy over the top outfits, makeup and wigs lol you have to push the boundaries to change the World and she did, she made everyone uncomfortable but that gave us iconic pop culture moments that nobody will ever forget. Genius!

Glenn Close is a friend of Gaga's mom

Well that makes sense then.

They are in the Illuminati together. 15 mins in and Gaga even says, “sorcery”. So many people are worshipping these people/ actors that practice witchcraft.

@@taras4352 And what about it? We love sorcery

@@taras4352 I love sorcery and the devil 😈 ❤️

Same loool

Period

Same!

Same!😄😊

shut up, The Queen is speaking

Dezzychioino Gaga is entirely respectful and humble around these women also - as she always has been. She's earned huge respect and honour in the entertainment industry tbh. Proud of that woman

Depends on the women:) There are incredible bitches as well. But they are definietly not.

@ what a fucking unnessecary comment

@@BongoAndBoingo 😁 thank you

@@CezaraL. This was mostly on who they ought frontrunner were for the Golden Globe. But Regina King is probably my favorite performance among these ladies.

Glenn Close, yes, I agree...Nicole Kidman, no...she still has a long way to go.

Glen Close has been underappreciated at times, but she is the real deal and should not be considered anything less than her quality superb.

@@ausplus huh? clearly you dont know the plethora of under the radar performances, NK, has done with small after smaller film....shes a true actress. not to mention shes won best actress already at the oscars, the only legitmate award apart from tony's. i mean literally shes played every type of character out there

Except for Hillbilly Elegy.

Not to mention the fact that she gets to go home to Daniel Craig.

No Kathryn and Rachel were adorable

@@alexandraa4352 imagine if Melina and Agatha are ever in a marvel movie together. I'd love to see Rachel and Kathryn share a scene.

@@greenpluto9026 Hmm we shall see

XD “friends”

OH they are lol

@R J to much information 😂😂😂

@R J idk some people are like that. I get that. You can sense the respect she has though. And that she's picking up tricks of the trade at the same time by veterans

I knew it...

She wanted to act. It didn't work out that is why she created this character called Gaga to just not be herself. Now she is more of a Lady.

She’s not just a singer she writes the music too.

You go Glen Coco!

LOL 😂

@@geenalawrence8338 LMFAOOO 😂😂😭

GLEN COCO GLEN COCO GLEN COCO!

@@geenalawrence8338 Meh. Get over it~

And the feeling is mutual

yeah, too bad the interviewer cut her off...

Josh Skudlarek years of experience

Eh, yeah, that's what every good actor / actress does

@@HAL-vm3wn “eh”. Really.

She definitely hasn't! She's a fine wine, that's for sure!! She looks the same as she did almost 30 years ago when she was in Boyz n Da Hood in 1991 or Poetic Justice (my favorite movie) in 1993.

The saying goes...

I swear I saw that woman in another movie oh yh that awful a Cinderella story

She’s ageing backwards. Oh my god love her

She ages, she ages gracefully. When people say she isn't aging' it further perpetuates the idea that aging is not ideal or attractive, so, people go about doing drastic things to 'not age'. Just food for thought. ❤️

glenn is friends with gaga's mom

She's a cutie🌸

Yeah..

i've been in love with her since i first saw her in the mummy

She is trans😂

@@Richgirl4 Huh? I don't get it... if by trans you mean beautiful, then yes.

@@Richgirl4 she isnt

Mina F do you not think it’s important to keep the momentum going? Get new opinions out there, keep the movement alive? Or do you want them not to talk about it? Let the momentum stop?

Em Em they’re not bringing anything new to the conversation, it’s just the same thing said over and over again, the same questions asked. I’m over it. I care about the craft of acting, and the art of cinema. I think of women as artists in that industry, who should be able to talk about their craft the way men do, not just about what it’s like to be a woman in that industry. It’s not equality that the male artists are allowed to talk about anything and women are just allowed to talk about being women, it’s reductive.

Mina F what if this is the first video someone sees, and they’re introduced opinions directly from actresses about this movement? That’s the whole point about PR and exposure.. it’s so important to keep talking about something and keep it in peoples minds. Compare it to a missing persons case, you have to keep it in the news and headlines and on the streets to keep the case moving! So if someone watched this for the first time, and learned something or heard of the movement for the first time, I think that’s worth it. Would you agree?

Em Em No. On what planet. The only people watching an hour long oscars round table are people who are at least somewhat into the movie industry, and NONE of those people aren’t well aware of what Me Too is. My grandmother knows what Me Too is. They’ve talked about it, and talked about it again, they talked about it last year. Let women talk about something else, I’ll repeat, it’s reductive.

Mina F don’t be ignorant, you can’t assume everyone knows about a topic that is specific to Hollywood. Hollywood is in the U.S, think of people outside the U.S., even people outside of the EU. It is important to keep talking about this, it can change a lot in the world for women.

Corbin Lopez I was JUST thinking that! Plus, the guys seem to cut folks off when they’re responding. Very annoying!

Agreed!

The girl with the highlights is great! She's so great at listening and transitioning what the actors are talking about with the next question without cutting them off. I hate the way both guys cut people off or ask some awkward questions.

I think he's not bad. he doesn't have only canned answers and let the ladies breathe in the questions. Unlike Steven

@@rorydouthard3636 Exactly!! She lets it flow a lot better

She seems to do that when anyone meets her. She is so not what people expect based on her music career, especially older people like me. I can't think of anyone that has met or knows her that doesn't just gush about her.

She's the only person I've seen on his who was the 'least experienced' on the specific subject. But was really insightful and not overbearing as others have been.

Everything that Glenn Close does or Nicole Kidman is an acting masterclass.

Why? What does it matter wether the mediator is a man or woman?

@@nachoalfonso2614 I agree, it doesn't really matter. But there is a female mediator who has been a part of past roundtables. She was really good, not sure if she still works at THR.

My thought exactly

anne summers You really think these are all women? Most of them are transgender’s. Just saying

He moved swiftly past some things that a woman would have sat in and elaborated on.

Yes.

they all have pretty dope hair i never cant get mine silver

I can't stop staring at it. She looks amazinggg

I would see any movie with Kathryn Hahn. She's fantastic

Watch The Mummy

I really doubt she's underrated.

She came from small roles and worked her ass off to accomplish that

She's such a hardworker

no, she really isn't. But she is amazingly talented, which is even better.

@@84Elenai must be sad seeing through your eyes

@@madamabutterfly4240 yeah, reality kind of is. Sad, I mean. Disillusionment instead is bright and colorful.

@@84Elenai gaga is beautiful shut the fuck up

ShipBuilding the fact that you think it's ok to speak that always says a lot about you and how you think if yourself as well. You reveal your true soul by your actions...and you definitely need to work on a lot of stinking shit.

ive been wondering this too wthhh

The Grinch yep. It’s bs.

She’s the least known to popular audiences. It’s just marketing

I saw a film with her in it last night that was *AMAZING* called "She's Funny That Way".... It was hilarious and although I've seen her in B-parts in other films, she carries a large chunk of this one and does it superbly! Enjoy!

she has mature

She has always been a nice person, just so sweet. The thing is people always focused on her clothes and that has nothing to do with being a good or bad person.

She is mature indeed, but she has always been like this, look for her earlier interviews and you will see it

She's a lyricist it would be odd if she would

🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

I read ur comment before i actually see it. And didn't get it. But when i saw it .i had to reply and say . Who ever put it that way gotta be PHUCKING FIRED hhhhhh

That was so awkward to see 😂 how could they not tell that that wasn’t the real cover art it looks so poorly photoshopped 💀

Maybe they just didn't get the rights.

I know right. It pissed me off

oh. my. god. i am hooooooowwwwwwwling. wtaf is that artwork?! she looks like a sim

She was awesome in Southland, as the homicide detective. She was a great fit for that role. Just a sensational actor.

@@txmetalhead82xk True.

txmetalhead82xk She was PERFECT in that role in Southland.

First saw her in American Crime..she's really good like damn.

I've seen every single interview of hers that you could possibly imagine and believe me I never get tired of listening to her! 😅♥️🙏🏻

LOLLL that always cracks me up too!!🤣🤣

That's why I think they should have a mix of men and women in these talks

Branner it’s a prerequisite for the women roundtables every year and I’m so tired of it. By actually talking about their art is what is proving women have great stories to tell. None of the women’s performances were the same and yet they get little time to explore the many facets of being complicated and complex women through their roles. I wish actresses would refuse to answer these questions and just talk about their art the same way the men’s roundtables get to do every year, no matter the controversies in the industry. Which is I prefer all the other panels save for the women’s.

Helena D. Exactly. I couldn’t watch all of it either. Such talents too. A shame.

I love how you think “women” is a “generic notion”...Interesting

They do move on to talk about their craft for the majority of the interview

Wayne Landry She’s 48???

D Leo While complimenting someone’s looks can be deemed reductive it hardly constitutes full blown misogyny and trolling. Calm down?

I am sure she gets all sorts of facials and what not. I bet she has a little help looking younger. She looks more natural than Nicole Kidman. Her face is too tight looking. Botox city.

If these woman don’t want to be reduced to their looks then why are they so dolled up? There is nothing wrong with looking nice but at the same time they all look like they are ready for a red carpet? Why can’t they talk about these things in regular clothes? Do you not think they are still being complicit?

it's the money

Uchenna Esomonu 😂....Take it easy. But yes, she’s beautiful

She's just so consistent in giving incredible performances. Her work has been relevant for 20 years!

Me too! Favorite actress of all times

Not me! So very overrated and so fake! Yuck!!!🤮🤮🤮🤮

Melanie As women, we all have that same syndrome. Because of our maternal sense.

Yeah happens to me

that is such a great line

@@Lareshhh Lmfao thanks guys!! I was stretching cables out & knowing my luck I'd break one! Glad I checked the comments :)

Yup -- appears to be in the recording. THR -- quality control please!

I’m so disappointed I can barely watch it now.. DOES IT STOP DOES ANYONE KNOW????

@@l2r1111 i didn't finish watching

@@l2r1111 I kept watching till about 40min mark before I started getting really nauseous and it hadn't stopped. Probably would be easier to just listen without the video, like a podcast.

Yeah or crazy crazy coincedence right... RIGHT?! ☻

ethant055 it was actually 😊

Probably for the photo shoot yeah. Haha.

They always try to do a photo shoot and wear the same colors

They usually do a photo shoot as well as the interview so I’ve noticed that there’s usually a theme in the outfits for all of the round table talks.

i love that she's a gifted actor and director and she's the voice of TWO of my favorite cartoon characters of all time (Huey and Riley on the Boondocks)

She´s so underrated as an actress but she´s always great and also, down to earth.

What does independant even mean ?

@@rige229 Not engaged I suppose, I have no idea =\

@@rige229 Being able to take care of yourself.

frog English accent effect

lusapho gqobo i’ve got an english accent and no one listens to me that intently lol

She's an eloquent speaker and has that nice soothing "bedtime story" voice. I could probably listen to her recite the phone book and be completely enthralled.

Yeah but same

as they should!

Regina, Gaga, Nicole 😍 But all of the women are wonderful and brilliant as well

Ibrahim we know...what's your bloody point 😂😂 they all wearing it

Nah Cooper held his own in that discussion for sure

the villain sure did! But nonetheless, it felt like *some* of his peers were kinda scorning

Yes, there seems to be a huge aversion these days towards actors turning directors. They are still considered actors. Look at the Oscars, the directors branch didn't nominate Bradley Cooper even though everyone agreed he had one of the best directed movies of the year. Same happened with Ben Affleck. It just seems directors are less welcoming...

jajceboy which is curious, given that he got nominated to the directors syndicate awards...

@@Denis-89 You would think Jordan Peele would have lent some credibility to that transition already. Everyone universally embraced him as a director.
