First LP is sexy asf, Second only truly miserable people judge people based on sexuality. Finally, being yourself is not an"agenda" its living. She is an amazing artist..PERIOD..
I agree 100%!!
I disagree 100%
Czarina Magda Borshovoi If she had it might have knocked some sense into you.
Well Said.
@@chicotthejester9341 You wish you had a 200th of her talent.
I see that there's a lot of females here loving and supporting LP. As a man and a heterosexual, I thinks she's beautiful, sexy, and an amazing artist.
Gender fluid is a cop out...like my son says MAKE UP YOUR F#CKING MIND...go one way or the other...we all make decisions...make one. One decision she has made...to create incredible music and a voice for the LBGQT community.
@@lindyfrank5342 So you are fine with her her voice advocating for the community when you don't accept her as a person?
I want to ask if I'm really reading your comment as it was meant, but it seems the message is just too clear ..🙈
From as far back as I can recall i've always challenged gender standards as I got SO provoked by the way most things in the world was sectioned into boy and girl..😀
I'm a cis girl raised by only women and the 70's kind = body positivity and conversations about all the emotions and physical changes that happens in a girl growing up,
but I could've easily misinterpreted my interest in equal diversity and inclusiveness for all
(that any gender should be able to do as they please with their own body & their whole life in general)
as me not being a girl hadn't I had those strong women around me to tell me I was just a strong girl for doing whatever felt right to me ^^
So I'm personally really glad I just got to be ME so that I now wake up as an adult woman every morning, rather than having had transitioned into a boy, just because my personality was crazy tomboy and liked to dress androgynous ^^🍀🙏
Why would you rush people to take such serious decisions?
Makes NO sense to me how that descision would make her life better in any shape, especially when she is already so loved for being her authentic self😊🌸
I couldn't even imagine how she would look without her fluid apperance! Honestly I am looking a little more forward to transitioning from young to mature adult after having seen how lovely she can portray herself!
Even tho I don't have her cute, tiny elf body unfortunately, so I doubt I will stay as youthful 😅
LOL sry, I'll stop myself now 😂
Got carried away with how handsome and adorable she is, as usual 😹
Thanks for taking your time if you read that 😊🌸
@@lindyfrank5342 looool your world is so small and sad
@@lindyfrank5342 gender literally isn’t a thing- it’s made up by society and isn’t a biological thing at all- why shouldn’t we break the system?
@@imroxxxyandrewsand-344 Apparently "race isn't a thing & it's a social construct" as well, yet did y'all keep the same energy with Rachel Dolezal...okay then.
LP really got me with “Lost on you” Live-straight away. i am older so I remember this excitement over a voice and person from Annie Lennox as well-also very androgynous, and even younger-David Bowie! What is with me and a total attraction to the androgynous? But the voice slays me dead!
Annie Lennox? Well if she reaches that stratosphere she really has arrived...I just discovered the gorgeous and almost 58 Mylene Farmer...she did that duet with. WOW...
Same that and muddy waters ❤️
I'm literally listening to that exact video right now. The voice and instruments is just beautiful🤩
same!! completely different sound, but I got the same zing that I got listening to chrissie hynde for the first time….like…”whaaaaat?” would love to see LP live in a small, acoustic venue. i’d probably melt right into a puddle. her voice!! gah!
That song brought tears to my eyes
I love LP and her music . Only came across her a few months ago and I’ve never fallen in love with an artist and their music as quickly as I have with LP.
cant get enough of LP's music magical personality xx
Hateful trolls get lost. Love LP. She’s great!❤️
Where are they, all I read is pure love :)
Amazing soul, I adore LP completely
LP is an amazing artist, she is 100 % real, she has an amazing attitude and has a great sense of humour she is my new favourite artist today.
LP is a treasure.
I remember her singing My Cinderella with Cracker. Amazing. The vocal range this girl has...
You are such a beautiful human 💖✨🙏🏻
LP is another only one in a lifetime!
Intense Shane vibes. More of this please
Love LP
I love her voice and she said interesting things but I was getting super distracted by the constant "you know" after every other word 😬
I mean does it reaŁly matter? If Freddie fucking Krueger had such voice, I'd listen.
She's wonderful
Interviewer: How did you do it?
LP: With great songs.
On aimerait bien la traduction please...😢😢😢😢❤❤❤❤
you know 😂❤️
Uuhh
I like LP, she is really inspiring in all way, but her "you know" is a bit annoying. I watched her older interviews, where she doesn't used it as much a now. Curious what happened...
@@michelfoster4053 maybe coke 🤣
@@resurrectionx5952 do you think? I hope not.
Can LP make better than lost on you anda When wewere high
There is so much going on here and so many understand. Who cares who u choose to be through a free choice but lets face it and LP we know whats happening to many of souls here. I love ur voice but i am also aware of the dark
Interviewer is waaaaaaack. Yo I didn't even finish this cause this lady asked the worst questions and focuses on the wrong things.
"You've been a pioneer of androgyny..." WHAT? David Bowie would like to have a word with you? He did it before most of us were even born!
@Whizper2me I'm sorry, Im talking about David Bowie, who would be 74 today if he were alive, how is 39 (LPs age) "not that far apart"??? Bowie released his first album 14 years before she was even born, and by 1981 he was already a major superstar, smh.
"you know.." yeah now i know
Youknow youknow youknow i dont know anything
she seems very uncomfortable
"You know" LP 2018
I heard You know 10,000 times.
I don’t hear anything but
“ You know “
This is You Know LP interview
You know ? What I mean ?
You know ? 😂
I love LP , you know ? ☘️😍😂😂
She’s fucking gorgeous 😻😻
She seems to be age fluid as well. I can't tell if she's 20 something or 40.
My god same, i discovered her about.. Idk 5 or so years ago and she hasnt changed, like at all and im here for it shes beautiful
Happiness can do that for you
Me to 🤔
She's got that rare quality that Prince had. A genuine, passionate, artist who's attraction crosses gender definitions. It is mesmerizing.
Agreed
I wouldn't compare her to prince, he's on a whole other level
My dear, When I was listening the interview and was watching her EXAAAACTLY I thought of Prince, too. Amazing
So glad someone compared her to Prince. That is exactly who I am reminded of.
You are seriously going to compare this beautiful person to an abusive asshole??? WTF is wrong with you?? Did you know that He fought her with his fists at his home when she refused to join him as his protege?
P.s. she answered very honestly on her stance with every controversial question given to her ... and she did remarkably!
I cannot believe that her label dropped her after lost on you. Wtf?? That was a bonehead move in the labels part.
I can't figure it out either, these companies fucked up big time. LP is only getting hotter every year.
Really?! Didn't know that, now I get why after that Album didn't hear her anymore on radio
When i first saw her in "Girls go Wild", i was like:
- Is that a girl?
- Is that a boy?
- Eh, i don't care, the music is awesome and the person looks smashingly unique and charming.
Thank you it doesn't F#cking matter.
Same here!!! I saw her live performance of Lost on you and i got chills, still do, i was like this dude is beautiful, then she started singing and was like this woman is STUNNING
I thought she was a dude first time I saw the band.
Exactly, I had no idea the gender for a second and just as fast I realized it DID NOT MATTER because they were beautiful and amazing transcending all genders
People tend to try and label people by gender before they try and make sense of them. Gotta realize that that reaction is encoded into us. We decide how to treat people by first identifying whether they are a boy or a girl. Myan, I basically dropped that way of thinking. I treat people by who they are. Whether they are decent people, naïve, stubborn, deep, caring.. Some millennials still gotta shake that boomer-raised mentality.
Categorized differently. See differently. You decide what is important, and frankly.. unless you're looking to smash (Which seems to be the driving force in peoples mentalities) you don't need to know what's between their legs.
She is so humble, calm and tranquil 💚 I love her soul!!
She has such a beautiful aura! & Her talent is just SO amazing & awe--inspiring.
This is going to sound tacky and a bit cliche, but I have listened to LP's magnificence everyday since my 2 wk old discovery of her.
I am unapologetically, unabashedly addicted and what a great fix!!
Barbara Johns 🤪🤪🤪 Just say no to drugs.
@@chicotthejester9341 who needs drugs when you're high on life ... get one!! 💚😁
Barbara Johns Hmmmm🤔 If by “get one” you mean be more like you, then I think I’ll pass.
@@chicotthejester9341 Get one as in ... a life
& you can reply all you want from this point on,
but I am done entertaining the hate in your heart. ..
to busy enjoying life, may you find happiness
Trolling looks ugly on you, just sayin'
Barbara Johns SJWs always like to start a conversation and end it. You’re such a cliche.
I dont care what gender this magnificent singer is. It just doesn't matter. My wife and I went to sleep last night with music playing on TV. I had to run out to see who was behind this voice? My new favourite singer! Thanks for the beautiful music LP.
Try to count her „You know“‘s 😂🤪🙈 LP I love you and your voice! You‘re great!!!
Love her music, and her voice
I don't understand why these people who claim to hate her and her music have bothered to listen to this interview, or listen to her music, or even make comment. If you don't like it then just don't listen to it. Go and listen to something you do like. You are in charge of what you see and hear. Nobody forced you to listen to this interview or her music.
I like her music but if you dont listen then you know...that's why they listened
so don't like the interviewer person urg..abrupt and unfriendly! LOVE LP as a human-being super sexy and love her art!!!
Was just thinking that, she had very loaded questions
Yeah sadly channel 4 interviews are often quite curt the interviewers are, well, they follow their questions and tend not to wing anything, they always come across as having a considerable lack of personality
This is exactly why I find her so intoxicating - it's her unapologetic, raw truthfulness to herself. It doesn't matter what she looks like or whom she dates - she exudes calm confidence and powerful, unabraded authenticity that is just so damn sexy and life-affirming! Her state of consciousness is like an attainable, superior life form that inspires and gives hope to humanity. I feel stimulated on countless levels when I watch and listen to this woman.
Well said. It's true.
Couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you for expressing what are my toughts as well.
YES, in fact, yes, I feel like this too,
hace 5 años hiciste este comentario. Todavía eres fan? Yo recién la conocí y pienso lo mismo que tu. Ella es muy inspiradora en muchos niveles. A mi me ha ayudado mucho.
La siento como un familiar que viene del pasado a apoyarme. Es muy raro lo que me pasa, pero leo comentarios y hay muchas personas que dicen que LP los ha sanado. Saludos
I feel like she's so extremely intelligent and gives honest answers that are way over people's heads.
I wish they would focus more on her as an artist and her music...
All these hate comments had me very surprised. I live in a very free country and people here never say such hate comments. There is a thing called RESPECT! Respect people who never did something bad to you.
Respect is earned.
Where's the hate comments? Haven't read one yet.
Respect isn't something people understand anymore. It's something they feel they're entitled to but others have to work for, and it doesn't work that way.
I am glad to see someone else understands respect as well.
@jon smith Why because of gender fluid stance? Just shut your damned eyes and listen to her and her talent. STFU in other words.
She has an amazing voice. Would like to know the story about the tattoo on your chest.
cynthia goulter she has talked about it past interviews that someone told her it’s about the journey not the destination. The ship represents the journey
She is amazing
The tattoo on her chest is a tribute to her Mom. Her mom always said that life is a journey.
Only ignorance judges somebody by their sexuality and it's not anyone's business anyway. People need to learn to mind their business first and clean up their lives before they throw dirt at somebody else. LP is amazing that's the point!
That smile 😍😍😍😍😍 just melts my icy heart 💙
"I hope it won't be It's a quota scenario." Spot on!!! She understands very well what diversity and inclusion should be. The most important thing is the art you create, stop paying attention to the gender, sexuality, colors, looks, or whatever it is. I hope I can see that day in my lifetime.
She has such clarity in her view and what's going on. Truly a beautiful artist.
I love and appreciate you Laura Pergolizzi! We LOVE your music. Please keep the goodness up! Many blessings to you. My family is glad you never tried to be anything less than you! Cause your priceless!!!!!
she’s a very very talented woman
And she works hard
I Think LP is a great singer and preformer
Very intellectual and sexy
Keep doing you LP
LGBTQCVXYZLOG don’t care, just give us the great music.
LP truly is the most incredible,humble,honest,talented gorgeous human being....a true artist,I just adore everything about her❤️ Thank you for the gift of your songs ❤️
She's outstanding 👏 ❤️ 🌈
She's an amazing singer
Great interview, as always, LP... But what's with all these trolls in the comments...?
When your favorite singer mentioned your another favorite singer ❤ Love LP and love Tracy Chapman
love her fluidity even navigating around boring ...banal and irrelevant questions....you;re great period. shine on and share .your wisdom!.....
this is hard to watch, LP handled the abrupt questions amazingly
when LP got viral in italy with Girls Go Wild, my mom saw her on television and straight up told me "look at her, she's awesome". i started to listen to her music, i noticed how fashionable and talented she is. I'm so glad to know her as an artist, i wish i could know more of her as a person, she's so lovely
Je suis absolument effarée par tous ces commentaires, laissez-donc les personnes être ce qu'ils sont, tous le monde a droit au respect, nous sommes tous humains et LP est une merveilleuse personne
she is have honesty heart and strong soul...i love her...very kindness
"gender fluidity is so fashionable" what? lol it's not done for fashion, it's called living your one life as you damn well please, questions were a bit off and judgemental, and this is coming from a straight guy, let people live ffs
TALENT talent and talent! Thank you so much for your integrity and realness.
I'm enjoying her ride.....
I love her music. What a singer she is. And her smile... Makes me smile from ear to ear every time. 😊
Patti Smith comes to mind 🙂
she is so eloquent, what a beautiful soul
I love her!
Me too
She's an angel, I'm in love with her personality 😍
When I heard her sing lost truly thought she was a young man, greatly resemblance to a friend we lost to drug abuse. I FELL IN LOVE.. THEN found my self questioning my own sexuality but remember having a goid cry singing along thats also when i realized I could cry and sing at the same time. LP has touched me since then in many ways
what a cool, humble, intelligent, talented person. I am a bit obsessed.
I'm so hooked on her music right now. Just discovered it recently. Now I'm spreading the word and telling everyone else to check out her albums.
Exactly, artists like Tracy Chapman made it because the music was incredible. Focus on the music 🤘
She is beautiful. She doesnt fit the standards of beauty but she has smth in herself I cant explain. She is hot. Amazing smile
Agree.
yes lp, I know. Believe me, I know.
Love you so much lp
So much
I just discovered her this year. And I LOVE her music.
Is it me or do I not see any actual hateful trolls😐(WHERE ARE THEY??)
I could have sworn they were supposed to be here...
why does main stream media try to put everyone in a bubble based on identity politics? why not just let a great artist lay it all out there and let anyone receive the message in their own way to connect with them. you can tell LP doesn't want to be forced into that box based on how she answers.
Amazing songwriter and a beautiful voice x
Love her music 🎶
Love the artist but this is to much of a woke interviewer. Stirring up something just because. She’s an artist (period) we need to stop extending titles
For me, you are an incredible artiste, You are LP and I love your personnality, and your music, your voice, your songs, the rest is not important for me, you are an exemple for all the people , all the genre, the music is a meeting for the men and the woomen in the world, thank LP
Why do you need to discuss her appearance or her choice of sexuality? Disgusting. She is an artist.
Margaret Dell'Oglio choice of sexuality??? What ?? Sexuality isn’t a choice
@@TheLeonorsena I stand corrected. It's not right that the interviewer goes down the road she did. She should be talking about Laura's music.
@@TheLeonorsena yep. sexuality is a choice. we are influenced in this choiche by so many factors. but it still remais a choice. but she has love. so..i think she is genuine..
HristosIisusEdomnul ohhh boy it’s definitely not a choice do you really think people would choose to be gay or bi (...) and face persecution? gay people in certain countries face death penalty do you really think that they choose to be gay ? Or kids that face abuse and homelessness just because of who they are choose to go trough that ?
Yes! Be yourself with decency and love.
Most would agree with this.
Many disagree with the profane and debauchery.
Courtesy for all.
I want so desperately to get an appointment at LP's dentist
JAJAJAJA, que comentario mas “off topic”.
P.D: Mi hermanito tambien se llama Fer.
She’s amazing and I love her, but 48 “You know” in 8:29 minutes? Honey we need to talk, you’re making me crazy.... in every ways ❤️🤭
She said it 48x? 🤯😂
Nincs hozzád hasonló! te tényleg valóságos vagy?
Anyone else noticed how many times she said the phrase "you know"?
LP, please never, ever conform! You are awesome just being your beautiful fabulous self! Much love ❤️❤️❤️
Te amo, Lauraaaaaa! ❤
I love her as a singer🔝🔝🎶♥️
Fantastic artist.. absolutely love her. Her voice gives me chills in the nicest way .
Love LP and her music since day one, ❤️ love is ❤️ love.
A pioneer? I think the pioneers who were gender bending started decades ago. LP is standing on the shoulders....
Obrigada por traduzir ❤️💞 amo está cantora, voz personalidade,estilo, interessante,ser humano incrível inteligente.
“You know?” x♾️
C est un bonheur de la connaître. ..comme femme et comme artiste....elle a tellement de qualités. ..et on aime sa différence. ..tellement jolie et sexy ...et si naturelle. ...on l adore notre petite étoile brune ...
LP's voice is amazing and I've had Let's Get High on repeat since I found it on RUclips.
Same haha
