I love Gary Coleman, the world and his family turned their backs on him yet he fought for his integrity till he died and I totally respect him for that. He never got the respect that an average person gets and that is why he wished he had never been a child star.
He didn't have any family, money, a bunch of deamons from the past. His foster parents took much of his money, health problems too ... Plus I think people were extra aggressive toward him because he was small. I can see why he lost his sanity. People are cruel, it's a cruel world, It's to bad Gary couldn't find any peace, because he brought a lot of joy to many. Greatest child star ever! rip
@@DW-nb2zcGood question. I wonder, too, if he was put up for adoption by his birth parents because of his health problems. The kidney disease was since birth. And because of his kidney condition, it stunted his growth.
So much class. They asked some demeaning questions in this interview, and he looked so sad, but he kept his head up, smiled, and answered every question respectfully.
He was a comic genius at such a young age. RIP my friend. You are greatly missed. Thank you for the great work that you gave us. I'm sorry you had to sacrifice so much. We love you.
After they showed that clip of him in the series and then cut back to him - in just those two seconds you culd see the sadness in his eyes and the expression on his face seemed to show that in his mind he must have been thinking'how it has all changed for rme' ...
Yeah” But plus he’s a little a!%#hole👊🏽 he hated Arnold’ just like Malcolm Jamal warner, hated Theo’ from Cosby show. They both would get offended when people ask them about that character🤷🏽♂️It’s whut made them. He wouldn’t even quote his famous line, whut an a%#hole.🤣
I think he's lived through difficult times caused by his health issues and by his career being mishandled by his parents when he was a child. He probably has been sad alot and it's most likely hard to forget abd get over. I am so sorry for the way he has been treated! 😒
I mean look at all those personal ass questions the audience asked him. Imagine how much he got questioned about being broke and working as security? The man was depressed on every level possible. His anxiety was through the roof on this show
This is really sad, audience members asking personal and sensitive questions, he clearly wasn't taken seriously as a person and it shows in his eyes how sad he was for it.
He was in pain and often sick on the show. Todd, "Willis" said he himself cried one day because Gary was throwing up and barely able to act, but the show was lied to about his health by his parents. Gary sued his own parents for over a million for his finances. I'm glad he got the part and I'm glad his parents didn't say no, he's too sick to work. At the time, he was probably feeling the same, but who can blame him for saying he wished he'd of never done it or did it way differently.
Gary doesn’t realize how many people he touched ,how much laughter he gave people, and how much joy. I wish he would celebrate and embrace that journey a little more, it was a beautiful gift. He came off somewhat guarded and remissive. I think the crowd was shocked a little bit. Thank god Gary accepted the hug. Love you Gary, thank you
What they do is, they give you the world on a silver platter, but the second the rating drop and the money dries up, they kick you to the curb and then you realized you were only ever dollars signs to them. That's why a lot of these child stars come out the way they do. It's the reality of slimy Hollywood!
He looked like he was fighting to suppress the deep seeded depression of a kid who was used up and spit out in Hollywood. He was trying hard to create a new identity from child star to young man. On that note, what kind of question is "I heard you are broke and a security guard"? Who cares if he's a security guard or bagging groceries? Let the man work and make a living! RIP
One of my favorite actors ..best show there ever was ...and Gary Coleman was the the only person who made everybody laugh when he was in pain .. a true inspiration ..I will be your fan always ... Rest in peace .
Leave this man alone. I loved him to but these questions were all very annoying even to me. He was trying to be nice on tv but he was bothered by the stupid questions.
I don´t think the questions were Stupid at all. There was no internet so people wanted to know more about his life. He was trying hard to be nice but at the same time he was so agressive.
@@parallax8207 Just because there was no internet at the time didn't mean they had to asked such questions. I mean asking someone if the rumors we're true that he was broke and working as a security guard seemed irrelevant and outta place. Even if it was true, did anyone expect him to deny it? But being in that situation alone is quite painful and hard to live with especially as the media has a way of portraying people like like they're worst person in the world. You could see how the questions made him uncomfortable. No need to rub such stuff in his face again.
I grew up watching Diff'rent Strokes and could not believe what happened to most of the cast members, very sad. I hope Gary found peace with his demons before passing away. :(
I don't think there will ever be another child star like Gary Coleman. He was in a league of his own. There will never be another like him. May he R.I.P.
Poor soul..RIP Gary..u lived entertaining us..we even didn't hv a clue u were going through so much of trauma..now we are grownup..we wanna see u smiling from up there..u made our lives good and inspiring..u were our hero..and u still are
What I’ve learned about TV actors and movie actors is fans react to them differently. When a TV character is in your home every week or everyday u feel u know them it’s more intimate. However, when it’s a movie actor it’s on a big screen so their image is much bigger. We tend to be in awe of movie actors and talk to TV actors like they’re our friends and neighbors. The fact that someone just asks “can u say your catchphrase” like he’s a wind up toy, proves my point.
As depressing as this interview already is, it actually gets worse. It took place only a few weeks after Dana Plato died and they brought her son on and had Gary try and cheer him up. I'd imagine with Gary being as private as he is, not being a fan of having to that in front of an audience Every time he has to watch a clip or asked to say that catchphrase, the dude has to be reminded of what happened on the set and what people he trusted did to him.
+Maddie Edwards He was 29 or 30 years old in this clip, so he would have looked pretty young even without the condition which stunted his growth. If you look at pictures of him from 2008 or 2009 you can see he aged.
Cain. D yeah, he didn't need that. they would never treat him like a normal guy. they couldn't get past the Arnold character. I have to admit, I'd probably have a hard time getting around it as well. You'd see him and the recognition factor would kick in and you'd wanna treat him like you knew him, even though you didn't.
@Tenika Watson What did she say about you then that you have to be annoyed at her I’m just curious I’m not trying to pick a fight or anything I’m just confused
Out of line to ask him about his health so publicly. That's bad manners. I'd never ask someone such a personal question in a room full of people, even if it had been publicized.
Ross A i was thinking thinking the same thing. These types of shows were all about drama. My sister used to watch this show when we were teens. They gossip alot but how rude was that to ask about his health? Like you said bad manners.
He clearly didn't want to talk about his health or why he works as a security guard but he still managed to give very smooth, friendly amswers without going into it.
Gary if you're watching this from heavens, I want you know that you are one of greatest actors of all times, a reason of loads of laughter when I was kid, and these days I am watching different strokes again to unwind after long hard days. Thanks to you
I feel for him, you could tell here that he really wanted to put the Arnold character behind him as it represented a great deal of pain. We grew up with Arnold but Hollywood’s exploitation of child actors in those days later became evident by the tragic lives of Gary and Dana (and Todd, who was abused)So unbelievably sad. RIP Gary and Dana 🙏
I’m here because of the documentary they did on him on Peacock and I must say every interview I’ve seen him on he was very well spoken. Signs of high intellect
It has always been hard to watch the interviews he did after his career sadly ended. He was a good actor and beloved TV star in his day Peace to Gary Coleman…😞
now after seeing all the documents on tv about gary . now when i hear people ask him to say "what are you talkin about...." i get so mad cause he hated having to say that line over and over even on the show he hated saying it after he grow up and was not a kid no more. i mean i loved when he said it but i get it he don't like saying it so if i never got to meet him i would never make him say it. he was a good man for doing it and not getting upset about it in front of the fans and stuff but i know behind the fans he would get so mad about it. but i am glad he decided on jenny jones show he was not going to fake it and say the line.
There a lot of folks who couldn’t go to movie theaters on a weekly basis. But Gary did those NBC movie of the week (original productions) and man, did he deliver. Because at school on Monday during recess, somebody would bring it up.
I think the world and life was not fair to him. Feel sad whenever i view reruns of Different Strokes.Eventhough death is part of life..deaths of those who gave us laughter does indeed saddens us especially child stars.
I agree with this completely. I feel for the fact he never got help for the emotional baggage of turmoil and hurt he was carrying around. Sad he had to die to be free from it but I am glad he is not hurting.
If I was there I would have said that he was my favorite actor growing up. I seen all his movies and I would wish I was his friend like Dudley. He was so cool as hell!
Had Mr.coleman been alive now he could of easily started a Podcast on YT and few Patreon accounts and he wouldn't be broke or need to work a regular 9-5 he truly was a genuine guy just wanted to be treated with respect. shame on all the leeches in his life smh
They asked him very uncomfortable questions but doesn't hesitate to any of them and answer then back with respect. Totally as a kid was genius actor. Bit his health issues make him hard to think of him in movies as an adult. I think maybe it was having s career as a host presenter interviewer of other celebrities because he also has the charisma of spontaneous speaking ,he was very clever. Sadly we will never know.

Believe it or not but he worked for my dad back then to be a security guard back before he died
@@stoodartyt9128 really ??
Totally agree. Some of the questions were disgusting.

He came off somewhat guarded and remissive. I think the crowd was shocked a little bit. Thank god Gary accepted the hug. Love you Gary, thank you
Gary Coleman was such a cutie pie.
You feel the pain that comes out of him when he talking. Shame, probably the most charismatic child star ever.
What they do is, they give you the world on a silver platter, but the second the rating drop and the money dries up, they kick you to the curb and then you realized you were only ever dollars signs to them. That's why a lot of these child stars come out the way they do. It's the reality of slimy Hollywood!
Thanks Sistas for that hug..He needed that besides them other personal questions..
He looked like he was fighting to suppress the deep seeded depression of a kid who was used up and spit out in Hollywood. He was trying hard to create a new identity from child star to young man.

One of the best childhood actors ever!! He was a sharp talented guy for sure. So sad he died so young. Very tragic how his life ended.
He was a genuine person who was surrounded by vultures who took advantage of him . Poor little guy w a brilliant heart ♥️ RIP Gary
Gary Coleman was so humble and Real
Loved the last part,a hug goes a long way ❤
She looked a little like Jackee Harry.
This guy was very humble that's rare nowadays
I agree.
Great guy! RIP Gary Coleman.
You can see in his eyes that he was sad.. :/
What happened to him?
