Stevie Nicks and Christine McVie of Fleetwood Mac wishing Warners Brothers a Happy 21st Birthday!!! I found this gem on an old Warner Brothers promo video dated 4/19/79. ~♥~ Alicia
This is hilarious! "It's an old English pub song." "I'm not from England!" For me, the difference in their personalities is perfectly laid out when Stevie is all cute playing with the stuffed rabbit and then Christine grabs it and tosses it aside. I bet they got along well because they were so different from one another.
No it’s not it’s tragic. It’s why everything after Rumors sans a few songs is half ass. Too much coke. Too much success from Rumors and the party ate them. Lucky they lived through it lol
Their relationship is 1000% the reason FM went on as long as it did. If they didn’t get along as well as they did, that band would have broken up a long time ago.
They are both gorgeous and funny. They are so freaking high they can barely focus, or go longer than 5 seconds without giggling. But check out Stevie at 4:48 - she suddenly gets it together, and delivers a perfect, lovely, and sincere little birthday wish. This must've been what it was like in the recording studio with them!
I had a huge crush on Stevie Nicks in the 70s & 80's. She looks so fine here. CM looks like she is really out there too. Imagine being that young and trying to handle all that that fame that they possessed. Probably not an easy task to handle.
All everyone talks or asks about is when Stevie was “coked up”. Why is that the first thing brought up? Why does everyone act like Stevie was the only one doing drugs??
Mr. Bhombastic Fucking Fantastic It wasn’t heroin, she was addicted to prescription drug Klonopin, which she said was much harder to quit than cocaine.
I think people talk about it because Stevie was always super open about it. She really wanted to make an impact on people who made the same mistakes she did. That’s why I love her!!
“this is a VERY simple and from the heart message” “NO CLICK” “I have to say SOMETHING!!” “I’m not from England!!” “Warner Brothers, fleetwood Mac, I represent” “I am not of many words” LEGENDS.
They are both are on their drug of choice at the time...they are still moderating each other and are still cute! Loaded doesn’t mean bad...except for the crew taping this. They thought it would be a quick “one and done”, yeah, no!!
Stevie was most definitely coked up, but Christine, not sure what she was on. Probably wine. But it was fun to watch the interaction between those two just having fun with no animosity the Fleetwood Mac was supposedly famous for
+StevieandChristinefan As far as I have heard, they did get along well together and Chris was never jealous of Stevie when she joined the band and sort of took her place as the main female. Probably because they kept to their attitude of everyone keeping equal billing and Chris never really liked the spotlight and was happy someone took it over. As for the supposed animosity, I think Lindsey was a big contributor to that, but either way, no matter what happened, the band still was professional and still works together to this day.
+StevieandChristinefan I read a recentish interview with Stevie where she said that LB was NOT happy Christine was coming back to do shows with Fleetwood Mac after being gone for so long. Stevie said she didn't know why he felt that way, but that wasn't her attitude and she was glad they would all be performing together again. She never trashed him but I liked the way she said she disagreed with him. Stevie does give great interviews.
+Basileus84 +Basileus84 Christine was not a true addict like Stevie was but she definitely did lots of cocaine and weed and drank liberal quantities of alcohol. She stopped everything when she recorded her solo album in Switzerland in 1983, and she's been sober ever since.
I agree! Just because they are playing and fooling around doesn't mean they are high! They are hilarious! Stevie is adorable! Christine proper and funny! I love them!
Stevie Nicks is the prettiest woman ever. Period. No matter what. She looks so hot in this video! She's like 10-15 years older than I am, and I still think she's hot today!
***** ***** Starre LaBell My fav singer is Stevie and I sing a little like her (not as good but not bad at all either!) I was called "The girl that sings like Stevie Nicks...listen to this for many reasons...old stuff...
Yeah. It looks like they were definitely "on" something, but I don't think it's coke. They appear to be more stoned and/or drunk, in my opinion. Christine definitely sounds and appears to be very relaxed, which would not be indicative of cocaine use.
1) Christine can sure handle her weed better than Stevie 2) Bruises must have been common for those around Stevie...man I had no idea she liked to slap and kick so much! 3) Who is that zombie chick over on the left that just sat their staring at them?
Stevie was lucky that Christine was around, Stevie talks about how she was "protected " by the band in the early days. She was so young and vulnerable. Thankfully they all survived. Best band ever. I've been listening to Peter Green, and boy he was good too.
In one interview she said she felt bad for all the new girls starting as they are on their own with no one roo look out doe them. She was lucky to have Chris
She also said thar guys wouldn't take her seriously when she told them to knock it off, but they'd listen to Chris She went from kiddie pool to deep down end ams needed someone to look out for her It's clear she really looked up to Chris from the interviews I've seen and read. She seems to be struggling now
They hit it off at the beginning and were smart enough to recognize a good thing and not ruin it. But I'm sure that they genuinely liked each other too.
Friendship goals right here. This makes me think of those school moments when you and your friend are whispering and laughing, then the teacher says if you make one more peep or laugh again, you'll be in trouble, and then you and your friend STRUGGLE. Stevie right here is me, all too relatable.
I love these two together. People always pass over Christine but anyone will admit that Fleetwood Mac is missing some of the magic without her. Always loved Stevie, but I love Christine just as much. Their chemistry here is so adorable.
Isn't it interesting that both Stevie and Christine are in the top five female artists making money this year. 45 million each, only being beaten out by Katy Perry and Taylor Swift. Goes to show you that despite 30 odd years later, their talent and songs stand the test of time.
+Basileus84 They just had a huge worldwide tour so that's the reason for that large sum. They will probably tour another maybe 10 years. Moneywise all the band members are very rich. I doubt Katie Perry or Taylor Swift will have long careers because their audience is teeny boppers, unless they come up with different music.
Neither one of them ever made $45 million in a single year. That sounds more like their total net worth than a yearly earning. Stevie is probably worth upwards of $80 million, but that took her over 40 years to accumulate. If Stevie and Chris earned that much from one tour, then that tour would have had to gross nearly a half billion dollars - and nobody has earned that much.
Jesus, Christine is trying SO HARD!! AHAUHAUHAUHAHUA And it's funny how Stevie respects Chris even high as hell. Wish I could watch this in a movie theater.
I think Stevie has got to be one of the most beautiful women in the world. She got really great genes passed on to her. She’ll always be an angel to me! ❤️❤️❤️
