Приколы
It’s so nice hearing her express such kind thoughts about George Michael. He always seemed kind, honest with a great sense of humor especially when discussing himself but it sadly took his death to learn he was even more genuine than many imagined. I’m still sad thinking of all the music he’d be creating that we’ll never enjoy but I still appreciate every song he left us. His voice is one of the most beautiful of all the artists in my generation.
Love her! And George Michael is my ultimate favorite male singer-songwriter. To me he was like the pop version of Chopin. His discography is profound and incredible!
He was so amazing, taken from us way too early. ✨🙏🏻
It’s so nice that you guys think what he did was profound
What a great way to put his contribution to music. Thank you
@@camogrrl he was more talented than you could ever imagine
@@ricardoe4215 well faith did come out when I was 13 so yes it deeply impacted the moisture levels at my all girls school. How he turned on so many women while pining for men is more talent than I can imagine
The movie is fantastic and the music is phenomenal. RIP George.
She is the queen of queens.
She is 60
We have quite a few Actress monuments. Starting with Maggie Smith.Helen Mirren. Judi Dench. Julie Andrews, Emma.-- Helena Bonham Carter. My favourite of all time Vivian Leigh.
She's a loud mouth hypocrite. Supports a political party that hates private schools, but sends her daughter to one and then flies, (first class I believe), from America to London, (where climate change protests bring London to a stand still and costs us tax payers millions to manage, (and clear up their rubbish), flies out again, while these very people tells everyone they shouldn't fly or litter ! Typical of that party, do as I say, not what I do. She's a phoney, like 99.9% of so-called "celebs".
Definitely. ❤
@@saeedurrahman2056 What Does Her Age Have To Do With It? 🤔
Still sad he is gone and Christmas is around the corner... RIP George Michael
We share the same birth date so every year I think of him at least once.
Emma Thompson is my hero and she’s brilliant in everything and I cannot wait for last Christmas ☺️
George Michael will be around for many years to come. Forever really. The sign of real talent.
Such a phenomenal talent for decades in so many ways: writing, acting, comedy, drama, and such a genuine and humble human.
The way I'm grinning like an idiot in the middle of the school library, this woman never fails to make me happy, not even on my worst day, god I love her! I've been dying to see new Emma interviews! She is a beautiful and hilarious woman with a heart made out of gold! This comment came out quite sappy but there aren't really any words in the English dictionary to express my love for Emma so let's just leave it here, she is my hero and source of inspiration
Yes! 😀...Just as adorable as her dear Mother Phyllida Law!!💓💓
Lalo Lujan 😂😂😂Yes true, I’m British! Her mother is also an actress, & writer!
@@annib9307 Yeah they are an amazing mother-daughter duo, so much alike!
I can only agree with you, sleepingroses; I'm trying to plot a way in which Emma Thompson could come to my office every day, sit at my desk and just tell me things for the rest of my working life.
@@staticcentrehalf7166 oh god yes please! I dream about going for drinks with her and spending the night just talking about everything in life, she is such a witty, intellectual person with fascinating thoughts!
I'm obsessed with her pronunciation. So elegant. And I love George Michael.
Elizabeth II: "But I am the Queen of England."
Emma Thompson: "Hold my tea."
Emma is so insane! I love seeing her and hearing her especially when she is just being herself. Her wit and timing always make me laugh and I find her to be an incredible human being. Can't wait to see both of these films.
Happy to see they made his song. Sad day for everyone George Michael fan and wham. Into a movie people would love. Hope he smiling down from heaven when it's out.
Yes I wish George could have seen it. Iam gonna see the movie just because I am a George Michael fan. Its so ironic hey died on Christmas day. He never got enough credit I think so nice of Emma to talk about him.
If you look up 'fabulous' in the Oxford English Dictionary, you'll just see a picture of Dame Emma Thompson.
no, in the Cambridge dictionary as thats where she studied
@@alexanderson1193 Haha, well said.
Emma is the hero!
This is what aging looks like Hollywood. It is beautiful- you should try it.
Well said : )
so nice to see an older actress be able to move her face when she talks! I adore this woman!
I pretty much knew what Emma would look like when I saw her mother in “Much Ado About Nothing”. Have you seen it?
Oh Emma's indulged in a face lift or two, she's just been sensible about Botox and never wears too much make up - and is so magnificent you wouldn't notice. Emma looks in better nick now than she did 20 years ago.
Utter bullshit. A few years back she, Kate Winslet and others formed this: www.vogue.co.uk/article/kate-winslet-on-cosmetic-surgery. She's openly, vocally, actively against plastic surgery.
“Everyone’s so traumatized, they just make biscuits constantly.” The Great Brexit Bake-off.
brixit lol and yes bojo often does
Emma's words and your reply put me in tears of laughter. Emma is a Queen, or for a realistic approach, should be the new British PM. She'd actually give some sense and humour to their political climate.
As Albus said in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (for which she played a brilliant Trelawney) "I honestly believe those most suited to power are those who have never sought it."
If that be true, comedians/comediennes are the perfect fit, or at least, those who know how to use common sense, which Emma certainly does.
Libtard alert!
I wonder how Brits managed to stay alive during the last 9 months then.
Emma : you’ll have forgotten about it by the time the film comes out
Me : hell no! I’ll be looking out for that wig!!
I love "Heal the pain" such a beautiful song.
She is one dangerous woman of comedy 😂 😂 😂
She's so fantastic!
Emma Thompson is 60
I’m still devastated by Georges death and I still cry a lot about it. I can’t seem to get over it. I don’t know what to do. Three years without George this Christmas and the world feels like such a dark place.
I feel your pain but I think that maybe your hurt and grief is not about George Michael and a projection of something else. Maybe it is wise to get some professional help?
AnoniemAmsterdam lol. Well, there is no doubt I could use some professional help. But, in this case, it seems to really be about George. I miss him like he was my best friend or something. I’ve never been to a concert so full of amazing sound and vocals as I did when I saw him. And that’s saying a lot because I’ve seen seen Sarah Brightman and Nana Mouskouri, among others. I am a huge fan of his sound and vocals but there was something else about him that took me in and I’m not sure what. I’ve been a fan of many musicians who have, sadly, passed away but losing George has really affected me. If you ever watch his videos on RUclips, you will see in the comments that there are many, like myself, who are missing him terribly. I’m certainly not alone and I’m not ashamed to be so saddened by the passing of such a lovely person. Much love to you.
@@kimberly38amsterdam I'm a guy who also still sheds a tear from time to time over the loss of George Michael, not only because of the extraordinary talent taken from us too early, but also when I read or hear about his selflessness and anonymous charitable gifts, and what a truly lovely guy he was. And I don't think I need professional (or indeed amateur) help.
@@foddyfoddy Same for me mate, will always Love the work he left us, but don't think the sadness will ever go. I think it is because he was the best of us
There must be something magic about England that produces such
amazing actresses as Emma, Helen, Judi, Maggie etc.
Bill Robaire yep. They live and breathe theatre acting. Unlike Hollywood, you just need to be of a Jewish blood and you can automatically get a role in any movie/tv show produced by another ...... well, this one I saw it from a documentary many years ago. It was about Bollywood filmmakers trying to get a break into Hollywood.
It's down to casting women in movies after they hit 40.
@@jcortese3300 too right. We have fantastic roles for older actresses
Bill Robaire indeed 👌🏾
Bill Robaire Julie Christie, Sarah Miles, Susannah York, Charlotte Rampling, Diana Rigg...
Love Last Christmas the movie & song ❤ George Michael is my King of Pop 👑 Saw him in concert on his 25 Live Tour in Houston 😊 The Best
I adored her film Last Christmas, and she was amazing (as always) in Cruella.
I can't get enough of Jimmy's genuine shock and laughter at 5:50! 😂😂😂
Emma brings a new chemistry with Jimmy and I love it!
Love her personality, so cool and funny.
I'm a HUGE FAN of George Michael and Emma Thompson. Can't believe she of all people is doing this for GM's legacy. I'll be first in line.
Love your name!! 😁
I love this woman so much! She must be protected at all costs.
"Heal the Pain" is my favourite George Michael song, too. Can't wait to watch the movie!
Emma Thompson is the BEST !! She was absolutely perfect in the movie !!!
When I grow up I wanna be like Emma Thomson. 💜💕💜
Last Christmas is my generation's Christmas song and George is the love of my life. Thank you so much for giving a new life to this incredible song
Liza x saw the movie last night, and you won’t be disappointed
It’s lovely
@@MattB0610 I am sure about it
I LOVE George Michael and his songs, and I did love the ditty LAST XMAS. But recently I started thinking, what does that mean 'I gave you my heart, but the very next day, you gave it away'? HOW can you give someone else's heart away? Lol! I guess nobody is perfect writing lyrics. It is hard to do both words and music and MOST artists don't attempt it, so hurray on him!
@@lindaf4836 is it so hard to understand?
Linda F it’s more symbolic than literal. I mean, giving your heart literally to someone is pretty gross and not recommended. 😆😜
Emma Thompson has to be my very favourite all time female actress. She can do it all but she is also a really fabulous human being. I just love her to pieces. Also George Michael was also such a beautiful man and I was so shocked and mortally sad when I heard about his passing. Music and the world has lost a true gifted beautiful man.
Bucket List item #5: Be at a dinner party or pub crawl with Emma Thompson. 🥰
Would love to have her, Helen Mirren and Julie Andrews in the same interview.
Would love to have all three of them plus Maggie Smith and Judi Dench for dinner.
@@wandaloskot
Let's hear it for the Bawdy, British Broads
I would love to have all 3 ladies in on the same film. Perhaps the upcoming reboot of 9to 5, with Lily, Jane & Dolly! 😘🤣🤣
Add in Julie Walters & Miriam Margolyes and it’ll be epic!
Add in Tracy Ullman...
I love Emma so. She is absolutely hysterical. An exceedingly talented actor and a gorgeous person all around.
Major crush on Greg Wise ever since playing Willoughby in Sense and Sensibility *swoon*
MLea Blev Emma’s thinking: Me too! 😉
And me. Loved both of them!
Yes, he’s very handsome!
I fell in love with Colonel Brandon, the great Alan Rickman!
I’m so sad that he passed away.
He’s so fine. He’s great in The Crown!
So did Emma!!!😁😁😁
natejacki YES!!!
Whenever I’m feeling blue I just binge watch Emma Thompson’s interviews. Not once has she failed in making me happy!
I aspire to be a bit like her one day. She’s precious! ✨💕
She's quite talented. Can't wait to see Cruella. Crazy hair.
She is actually the funniest woman on earth, I aspire to attain her level of awesomeoness
Emma is hilarious!! " I just threw my daughter to the wall!" LMAO!! She could talk about ear wax & make it sound so proper. Love, love, love her!😂😂😂
Threw her to the wolves.
Emma Thompson, eating skirts and warming hearts across the globe haha
Eating "skirts"?
Omg her hair looks so cool!!! 😍She's so classy i love her! 💖
She just sent me into tears in less than a minute 😂 what a comedy queen!
She is so beautiful and so kind... 😖
Loved the movie and George Michael is my all time vocalist.
YAAAS QUEEEN! She even has gold in her hair to prove it. 😂😂😂
She is a 60 years old woman
Looks great for 60 👌🏻
She's an absolute delight! Love her so much.
How wonderful. I know I will be crying through the entire film.
I can't wait for this. George was such an amazing human. Can't wait to hear his songs in this movie. I know it'll be amazing if Emma is attached to it. She's an amazing actress. #LastChristmas
Heal the Pain is such a fantastic pain! I discovered it by watching Last Christmas! Such a great movie too.
Could I love this woman any more? I've seen a million interviews and she's always hilarious.
Here I go again crying, after hearing someone talking about how wonderful, lovely and sweet George Michael was.
Gone too soon, never forgotten. RIP my dearest George.
Wow she is looking gorgeous in that coat...i love her coat...😍❤️
GEORGE MICHAEL is just a miracle , , ,
The way Emma talked about the movie makes me even more excited to see this.
Can't wait to see it ❤😪
@@noreenryan2590 Everyone i know who have seen it said its dreadful, shame, i heard Thompson has a rant about brexit at the start of the film, disgraceful.
@@kevinparker461 that's a pity
@@noreenryan2590 I agree. & knowing what a perfectionist George was i doubt if he would of even been pleased with the film.I dare say i could base a film around someone else's incredible talent that's used to mask a very poor story line. Just shows how low people will go to earn a living when they really have little talent. If you took all the people away who went to see the film because of the music the film would of been a real flop. Its deceitful, Most of the film critics have got it spot on.
I LOVE Her
Comedy Drama
She can do it ALL
♥️🌟💙🇬🇧🇬🇧👑👑
That's one of my favorite Christmas songs, always loved it. Glad they're doing it, with his songs, yay 😊
I could listen to Emma all day.
I will never forget her scene in Men In Black....
So looking forward to Last Christmas. Heal the Pain is one of my most fav George Michael song. 💖💖💖
She's so gorgeous and so funny! I wish her and her family always healthy and success. Love from Indonesia!
This is literally the Queen of England, for me. The other one is cool enough, but Emma's better :>
The icon GM!! Happy to see she keeps his memory alive. But he left us with great music
Emma is so funny, I love her
The housekeeper from Remains of the Day has become very well to do since she said goodbye to Mr. Stevens. Good for her.
My 7 year old niece has loved last Christmas as her favorite Christmas song since she was maybe 3. The year he passed away she was singing the song over and over and it just added to the sadness of his passing.
*There's a movie based on the WHAM song 'Last Christmas'.*
Me: eh
*Written and produced by Emma Thompson*
Me: Take my money
Elissa Lombard hahaha 🙋♀️
Absolutely
Mi dinero también!
I was like that when I saw the poster. I saw the title and thought "Oh obviously it's based on the song" and then saw that it has Wham! songs and thought "ugh, kill me now" but then saw that Emma wrote it and went "Oh! Now that's interesting!"
Oi Wham is brilliant 😂♥️
I love her she is so awesome !!!
I see Emma Thompson: i click!!! Bescause : i love her!!! She’s one of best!!!!
Love her, Stephen Fry and Hugh Laurie! They were friends when they where studying and I just wish I could have known them then... could they just make a documentary or movie about that period? Pleaaaseee!
I watch Last Christmas last night... I am from Croatia.. had a great time. Emma and Emilia have great pronunciation of croatian language !! 😊👏
Oh good god, I just love Emma soooo much. More people should be like her. She's fab😍😍😍😍
OMG she is soooo funny, love her!
She's really awesome :D and funny and smart ad beautiful... she's the whole package... absolute role model
I LOVE this woman. she is soooo real. So warm. My age. She could be my "bestie."
