- “Extra” Special Correspondent Teddi Mellencamp spoke with her famous rocker dad John Mellencamp, who just turned 70!
Along with opening up about turning 70, John shared his take on dating. He said, “I don’t care what anybody does. I don’t care how much money the person’s got. Is she a nice person? Is she funny? Can she stand John Mellencamp?”
John also wasn’t afraid to open up on his regrets in life, like “Not being mature enough to stay married to Elaine Irwin.” He added, “I don’t know how you can live 70 years without having regrets.”

What’s amazing is that his father is still alive while John is 70. Bless them both.
Being the right age to have heard all his stuff all my life, I can say its not my niche, I would say, having worked an arena in the late 80s in concessions, his was the best concert I'd ever seen put on. Over 3 hours, all of it high energy. I became sort of a closet fan.
That's a damn legend right there people. DON'T CHALLENGE ME ON THIS.
Top 5 American songwriters. Without question. Very cool interview.
If I could pick 5 individuals to spend an evening...supper...cigars and a few drinks...pick a brain on life? One on those great individuals would be...John Mellencamp.
He is a man's man...a true to heart human being that believes what he chooses, with no concerns as to, whether or not, others accept those beliefs...yet, a respectful, gentleman.
An American Classic!
Thanks for the music and your inspiration, JM!
Interesting, because he has never presented himself as someone anyone could get along with much less "respectful". He mostly says he is an ass to all people and I believe him! If its self promotion he may give you an hour.
John is the BEST! What else can you say. Only wish he could stop the cigarette addiction.
John Mellencamp is the true voice of the working class. Ultimate Americana. He was one of the first musicians I was exposed to at a young age and have been rocking with him for my short 25 years on Earth.
💓🎵🥊🥊AUTHORITY SONG🥊🥊🎵💓
Springsteen is the true voice of the working class.
@@janeplane1391 Why would you imply there can only be one true voice for the working class. Both artists' works speak to the struggles of the common people, one from the perspective of the mid-west and one from the perspective of his NJ roots.
@@janeplane1391 Springsteen cannot even sing. I'll take John's Music anyday.
@@janeplane1391 and so is John Mellencamp!!
My favorite joke when I was a kid, “Where do melons go during the summer?””The John Cougar Melon Camp.”.
Love the man. Always real. Cheers from Toronto
I think I'm idea for him !! ❤️ I've always been a fan and loved his music. my favorite song "Check it out"
I loved John's older music and I like some of his current music, too.
Exactly! His music went downhill after he fired his #1 childhood guitar player
John is too cool 😎
He's amazing and what a beautiful daughter he has.
I’m not a huge fan of his demeanor, but I enjoy hearing a famous person admit to having regrets. Whenever I hear someone say they have “no regrets” in life, it makes me think they have their head in the sand or they are willfully lying to themselves. Props to him for that one.
Listen to Teddi's podcast. You will love her even more🦋🦋🦋
Don't worry Bruce Springsteen isn't more handsome than you. You are the most handsomest man I've ever seen
I saw John in concert, and I thought he was good.
I think Elaine really loved him
Big fan of John. Why is he so red? Sunburn?
Redneck.
I thought this was Harry Hamlin in the thumbnail 😁
Feather fur and fin
I will NEVER FORGET DA OG- JOHN COUGAR😎when 1970’s record mktg producers THOUGHT the general POPULATION woulda/ coulda NOT REMEMBER🤠JOHN MELLENCAMP❣️
🥳I NOW SHARE UR🌟MAMA/GMA’s🌟quote🤓ALL DA TIME...
🤩LIFE IS SHORT...❤️EVEN ON YOUR LONGEST DAY😭
what?
@@greenbeagle13 R U TRULY SAYING U do not KNOW or don’t REMEMBER?
I had no idea he was 70 i think he looks like harry Hamblen here
His dad is still alive?
Calm down Teddi! 😂
70 ? I’ll never look like that at 70, I’m twenty years younger and barely in that condition. I’d like to know what his diet is.
He's been a heavy smoker for over 50 years!
Cigarettes and alcohol and a whole lotta IDGAF ⚡️⚡️ That’s it!
From everything I've ever heard him say, he's not a drinker.
He's got a grandchild that is 31 !
no that's his son. He had two boys with Elaine.
How do you comment shit without knowing the facts lmaoo
Felix - No, his granddaughter was born in 1989 (to his eldest daughter, Michelle)
At least he's honest about himself. You have to be a real prick to be in the music business. I can honestly say that.
Is he the same singer who threatened to leave Mercury records if they signed Backstreet Boys?
Being with a chain smoker would b damn near impossible
I think he needs a mid size town girl from Illinois.
theres no room for anyone else but you, dude.
Turning into a cranky old rocker lolol
I think he let go of a beautiful woman in Elaina.
Sad
Cheated on all of his three ex wives, cheated on Meg Ryan too. No wonder they all walked out on him. And here he is telling women what they should be like. You want it to work, Cougar, then start leaving your selfish attitude at home and quit the cheating and chain-smoking. Oh and date someone your own age instead of the string of chicks you've been seeing the past 2 yrs. Extra, why bother with Teddi? It's like Sutton said: she's boring.
I'm going to post a comment, just to see your answer if he replies and asks why you're so invested in the life of someone you don't even know.
Is it your business?
He cheated on Irwin? I thought she left him because he worked too much.
Im glad I have a life of my own and don't have to worry about other peoples personal lives. Don't you wish you did?
Mellencamp is not going to change for anybody. Good for him.
Denise Richards was right. Teddi is boring and wants to be relevant in her dads shadow.
Big leftwing nutcase.
Exactly. But mostly because he's uneducated as his song says!
lol nice.. satanic breeding
