I always love watching John's interviews, he takes control of the conversation and doesn't let these clown talking heads get their nonsensical questions through.
I, too, think he's wildly entertaining. Unfortunately, his social/political views -- to which he's certainly entitled -- can be oddly conflicting (e.g.,he's pro-working class but trashes the Labor Party). Broad-stroke soap-boxing ("this sucks, that sucks, buncha'c*nts..."), his "scorched earth" arguments have, at times, betrayed a Fox Nooze-ish bumper-sticker sentiment... which recently led him to metaphorically step on a prongs-up Trump-branded rake, which must've thwacked his frontal lobe pretty hard, because he was/is still...(?) a maga/trump backer. I'll momentarily give him the benefit of the doubt by suggesting a possible abducted & drugged scenario, but I dunno...jeesh. Nevertheless, his disarming wit and effortless command of the stage (both as a natural frontman as well as a pugnacious raconteur) has made Mr. Lydon a top draw in ant venue.
I love Johnny Rotten. What a guy! The most fascinating, intelligent, talented, authentic, hilariously entertaining and absolutely gorgeous rock star on the planet❤❤❤💋
that's true - the amount of verbal diarrhea he's spewing is more phenomenal than usual - the 'umbrella theory' (which is pure rubbish) to allow for his caustic personality doesn't fool me one bit
I usually find watching John on TV to be No Fun....but this is good- he gets the tone right - & not many people could have that haircut & still look handsome..
Great! And I got such a kick out of this gal giggling 😊 That's really how Johnny Rotten should be taken, seriously cuz he's extremely intelligent & honest but also with humor cuz he's deliberately being sarcastic for a reason. Love this man! 😂💛
I thought the girl giggling next to John was kind of annoying but John seemed to love it... idk it was kinda sweet seeing him smile whenever she laughed at one of his jokes
This was IMO when Lydon was at the peak of his powers. He looks great, sounded great, dressed well, had grown comfortably into his own skin...I always preferred PIL to the pistols anyway. I wasn't alive when they blew onto the scene, and it was all very political and very much a political statement rather than an emotional one (i'm sure for ppl who were there it was very emotional too). But PIL for me were infinitely more musically diverse and interesting. Love Johnny at this point in his career.
Yeah - a bit of a gobshite, aggressive, thinks he knows stuff (doesn't), makes people feel uncomfortable, not really a person you'd leave alone with your child...
Lydon's great, and I think enjoys Ricki and the interviewer having a good laugh at his responses. Too bad John Waters couldn't have rigged up a movie with John and Ricki as husband and wife, or brother and sister or something? 'The Half Brits' or 'Paisley Flamingos'. Pregnant Ricki searches out abandoning Johnny in London, and call it 'Down The Tubes'. Missed 3 big cult flicks right there! LOL
You know, this fucking video is great. In years to cum, right, they will look back at all the Christian/Rotten interviews, and know they totally eclipse Frost/Nixon.
riseup20twelve But she was a John Waters star before that happened, gaining fame in Hairspray (the original) and Serial Mom before turning to TV hosting.
Fuck me, the entire thing in genius and hilarious its like a comedy routine, lydon is on fire, such a quit wit, what a mind, what a character... Rickie Lake was BIG, what year was it? she lost a pile of weight at some point..
i see that john lydon's is into wearing skateboard gear john here wearing a vision street wear jacket they do say that the sex pistols were the first skate rock band alot of skateboarders at del mar skate ranch in the 1980's for there run would play sex pistols songs well skateboarding
Love seeing Terry Christian slowly losing the will too live by John's constant rebukes..priceless!
I had tears rolling down my eyes with laughter, Rikki Lakes giggling was the icing on the cake.
Lydon is freaking hilarious without even trying! I would be under the table rolling on the floor if I was there!
I always love watching John's interviews, he takes control of the conversation and doesn't let these clown talking heads get their nonsensical questions through.
Sitting here in 2022 watching a video of Johnny Rotten cracking Ricki Lake up. I could watch this a hundred more times
That burp has to be one of the greatest burps ever shown on television
saw him in a bar in nyc c.1987. handsome for sure and a total star, like he had a permanent spotlight on him.
Love Johnny 😂❤ He's a breath of fresh air. Thank you. God Bless You
"What are we gonna break?"
"Your career here if we're lucky."
Love how he speaks. Brilliant mind. He's sharp, witty and funny.

John Lydon's wit mixed with Ricki Lake's adorable giggle.
Fantastic.
Oh they mixed allright after this interview ended
I love Johnny Rotten. What a guy! The most fascinating, intelligent, talented, authentic, hilariously entertaining and absolutely gorgeous rock star on the planet❤❤❤💋
Johnny Rotten Looks The Best He’s Ever Looked Here In This Interview . I Just Love Him He Is Just Magnificent ♥️👍🏼🙏🏼✨
You are totally right.Johnny Rotten is so funny and awesome there💓👍💝
Verdade😆😆😆12r456789
He is awesome isnt he? So handsome ❤❤❤
Hes 100% full of Shit still playing a character(never himself) & he is a full citizen green card in usa )
HOW HIS VIEWS ON ROYALS etc HAS CHANGED HES A ROYAL LOVER/A RACIST TRUMP - FARAGE LOVER..HES A MULTIMILLIONAIRE
Tickled me pink..What an entertainer...blooming mustard John is.. Talent
lydon is in top form here
that's true - the amount of verbal diarrhea he's spewing is more phenomenal than usual - the 'umbrella theory' (which is pure rubbish) to allow for his caustic personality doesn't fool me one bit
@@sexobscura typical American talking when they wasnt asked... go get offended somewhere else you joke
@@sexobscura I love John but I bet on his deathbed his last words are probably something like "Fuck off with that whining" to his family XD
He look so frightened of John Lydon, that's what makes it all the more fun.
He's actually amusing and likeable here.
He still looks like OLD (young) John here.. the eyes and the cheeky smile.. he lost that at some stage...
The one beer you gave me......I'm UNDERwhelmed. Priceless!
I've been watching a few of John's videos lately, and he says, UNDERwhelmed quite a lot.
''yeah....pair of concrete slippers!'' lol
God john is hilarious haha. Especially when he sees that Steve Jones adverts
I usually find watching John on TV to be No Fun....but this is good- he gets the tone right - & not many people could have that haircut & still look handsome..
John Lydon is very cute here nice looking Bart Simpson hair and all the best most intelligent humour . Nice looking face 👌🏼👍🏼✨
"You're very tedious." Oh how I wish I could say that to Terry Christian! :)
that's called 'projection' in psychiatry
Love his comment on the anti drugs advert 😂😂
tiddleto2te riddle, look at the destruction of the opiate epidemic in America because of such liberal/communist attitudes toward drugs
What's really nuts is that Steve Jones did that commercial when he was hooked on heroin
that woman's laugh is so wholesome
that's Rikki Lake - she had her own talk show in the mid 1990's after she lost a lot of weight
Great! And I got such a kick out of this gal giggling 😊 That's really how Johnny Rotten should be taken, seriously cuz he's extremely intelligent & honest but also with humor cuz he's deliberately being sarcastic for a reason. Love this man! 😂💛
Was that REALLY Rikki Lake??? Hammered on drugs or just cripplingly embarrassed?
@@JETJOOBOY Yes,it was really Ricky Lake....later on she lost many kalories👍
love this...thanks for posting....
Ricki lake is loving Johnny ,she's giggling like a little schoolgirl .
Love Johnny
😂😂😂😂man, put him in front of an audience and he's on fire. I love it
Nice chemistry, she's absolutely gorgeous.
Rickie Lake..
Ricki Lake giggles at Johnny, the way Angie Dickinson used to laugh at everything Don Rickles said back on the TONIGHT SHOW.
I thought the girl giggling next to John was kind of annoying but John seemed to love it... idk it was kinda sweet seeing him smile whenever she laughed at one of his jokes
Milo Rodriguez ricki lake, bitch
This is comedy gold.....
"I'd never get an American Visa"
2020 been living as a US Citizen for years!
Rotton is on Form in this. Fantastic
had this on video at the time. watched it loads. really funny !
To think years later John would become an American citizen
@@Palace-of-Madness You do know that "living in" doesn't mean "citizen of"? FFS stop trying to correct people when you don't know what's going on
@@tsfbaf303 John's an American citizen and so is Steve. You're a complete ass on drugs.
@@tsfbaf303 John has had American Citizenship for YEARS now.

Almost feel sorry for Rikki lake here - she is creditably full of humour, but can't get a word in edgewise.
Fn love that guy! Legend
"You'll never burn my vanities" right as the Bonfire of the Vanities clip is fading in - LOL
Too clever as always. Kills the interviewer.
Jonny Rotten what a dude
Love Mr Rotten ! 💋
That's the way to end an interview Johnny! :)
John Lydon is a true Englishman.
Yeah - a bit of a gobshite, aggressive, thinks he knows stuff (doesn't), makes people feel uncomfortable, not really a person you'd leave alone with your child...
@@PenisMcWhirtar Please elaborate. Your educated opinion is fascinating.
Something Lydon has never said to anyone ever! Here is my elaboration:
John ( ͡°╭͜ʖ╮͡° ) Lydon
@@PenisMcWhirtar I see you like to troll instead of answering.
You keep using that word. Read my answer again to understand.
Brilliant 😂 " Is this the record company I need to be on ?," Erm no 😂
awesome interview
1990
8:25 and Rotten's comment after are the funniest thing
El Don Juan del Punck, Dios te bendiga juanito, eres un Az, eres completo, desde la A a la Z, muy buena tu performance.
Concrete Slippers he says he’d send to Malcom Mclaren Hahaha
Johnny Rotten in the house
“I’m piss poor“
*pulls out Jordans*
Is john lydon actually broke?
Sideshow Bob stole Johnny’s haircut 💇♂️
Omg, Rikki lake, I had forgotten that she existed 😆
Was Lydon auditioning for Guile in the street fighter movie at the time?
Def Jeff was playing on the same show and Lydon was well into them.
Pair of concrete slippers 🤣🤣🤣
Lydon loves to push peoples buttons....keeping things on edge and interesting
Probably coz she gets it, unlike so many.
So funny the father of punk thought he wouldn't be worthy of American citizenship. America embraces John!
Lydon's great, and I think enjoys Ricki and the interviewer having a good laugh at his responses. Too bad John Waters couldn't have rigged up a movie with John and Ricki as husband and wife, or brother and sister or something? 'The Half Brits' or 'Paisley Flamingos'.

My hair was identical to that in 1991.
Mine was better!
'ya duMb bSTARD' Terry almost cried... poor Terry
hahahaha.....brilliant !!!!!...what we gonna break ??? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
@danielscissorhands Yeah, but look at the hosts eyes !
Giggling Rikki sounds like she's toked up, the interviewer clearly has a "nasal" problem- John's the only clean one here, for sure.
riki has actually a top girl man shes obviously had some mushrooms or alot of johns weed haha.
@@ryang790 Riki who?
4:45 “it’s BART”🤣
Even the Pope Himself is said to find the temptation to punch Terry Christian into paralysis hard to resist.
Best part of this was the burp!
Rikki's got a cute laugh. Seems like a fun lady.
You know, this fucking video is great. In years to cum, right, they will look back at all the Christian/Rotten interviews, and know they totally eclipse Frost/Nixon.
He's wearing Jordans Loll
Whats the year on this video?
JOHN
I love John Lydon, but cool to see Terry Christian as well, I've never seen him in his younger days, he's a good guy
Ricki Lake...the giggleditz
''I just speed, its all I need''
that i have just realised is Ricky Lake.. a vacuous 'lifestyle' tv host..she was the precursor to bringing that shite to uk
riseup20twelve But she was a John Waters star before that happened, gaining fame in Hairspray (the original) and Serial Mom before turning to TV hosting.
Rikki,s baked hahaha
Sticki Cake
Fuck me, the entire thing in genius and hilarious its like a comedy routine, lydon is on fire, such a quit wit, what a mind, what a character... Rickie Lake was BIG, what year was it? she lost a pile of weight at some point..
He's brilliant...but where is the interview he did on the McCanns.?????
🗣god save the queeeeeeen 💪🏻🇬🇧
the man cannot not tell the truth !
Anyone know what year this is?
Apparently 1991
lol is that Riki Lake?
Sure is, 1990 before the weight loss
I s that Ricki lake
PIL was fantastic. Some excellent songs. Way more artistically relevant than The Sex Pistols.
Yeah but NMTB they were ALL excellent songs 🤘🤘
@@gmantramp404 hmm, don’t know about that. Some classics no doubt, but plenty of fillers.
8:49 LMAO
God, Terry Christian was still a knob back then. John rules, though!
ricky lake loves the fella
He says hed never get an American Visa but has been living in LA for 25+ years maybe 30+ years
i see that john lydon's is into wearing skateboard gear john here wearing a vision street wear jacket they do say that the sex pistols were the first skate rock band alot of skateboarders at del mar skate ranch in the 1980's for there run would play sex pistols songs well skateboarding
you didn't wear a helmet when you skated?
"the Collaborator"
So fucking funny
Rikki Lake, becoming a wet puddle in an ocean of giggles.
i love her laugh
Una sonrisa reticente, tecnica estudiadamente espontanea por la experiencia eres mejor q lucifer
8:49 😂
