Bette Midler is from my home state of Hawaii. My mother is a year older than her but they were friends at Radford high school back in the early 60s. We love her
LOVE LOVE LOVE Bette Midler. I've been in the entertainment field since i was 16 and when i heard her on a record and then saw her perform in movies and concerts, I was blown away by the level of her talent.
I loveeeeeeeee Bette ❤ as a kid, the first thing I saw her in was Beaches and I've been obsessed since. Such a beautiful, giving and hilarious beam of light in this world. Thank you for your contributions to this world, Miss M ❤
Hoda is pure goodness and light ❤ Bette is just an absolute legend. I’ll never forget seeing her in Hello Dolly. I had just been through a divorce, the death of my mother and a redundancy - all in 6 months. For my 40th birthday I flew to New York from my home in Ireland and paid $400 to see Bette. An unforgettable night at the Schubert. I’d pay it all again ❤
Bette Midler, my Goddess! Two of the best moments of my life were seeing her live in her Vegas show and especially as Dolly Levi. Thank you my Goddess!
So much love for Bette Midler. So many great moments. I remember performing Beast of Burden as a teen girl with a hair brush listening to records. She represented a freedom to embrace a womanly AND strong presence. Thank you for being a gifted and nuanced role model, Bette!❤
Just looking at her and hearing her voice makes me cry in a loving, admirable and memorable way. I sang the rose to my 37-year-old daughter as a lullaby ever night when she was a baby. Miss Midler has touched my life in so many ways for more than 40 years. Thank you, Miss Bette! for the joy and compassion and love you put into all of your creations.
I was a little girl in the 90s, living in the Netherlands. All my friends were crazy about the spice girls and the backstreet boys. But I loved Bette Midler. I watched her movies, sang along to her songs, and dreamed of singing with her one day. I was in love with this woman! Top actress and singer. Forever in my heart! Thank you Bette Midler❤ 
I'm Australian and in my mid 50s. Bette was a big influence on me when I was a kid. Of all the films and music she's been a part of, the biggest tear jerker was seeing a video of Bette on the other end of a phone talking to a terminal teen and singing " wind beneath my wings " when asked. It would have been an unseen moment had the family not put it on youtube, and it made me wonder how many times had Bette done that kind of thing in her life and no one even knows about it. As far as women being funny, Carol Burnett, Phyllis Diller, Lily Tomlin, and Bette are definitely my influencers. Strong, funny, bold, independent women. They definitely were a part of shaping me when I was young when I didn't have that kind of guidance in my life.
Thank you for interviewing Bette Midler. You both had a fun conversation. Bette looked fabulous and smiled a lot. I really enjoyed her movies and singing. It brought you a lot of joy and remembering her.
I absolutely adore Bette Midler. My favorite BM films are For The Boys, Big Business, First Wives Club, Hocus Pocus, The Rose & of course Beaches. Great singer, phenomenal actress, beautiful in her own quirky way & just a lovely person. Bette Midler can do no wrong.♥
What is not to love about Bette Midler. Multi-talented, longevity to the max, old-school values, warm and kind, she is just great. So lovable as a human being, so kind and humane. Can we all learn a lesson here? Y E S 🎉❤😊
The rose will always be my fav song by Bette. I lost a major crush and when i think of that song i think about Krista and how i lost the chance to tell her i loved her
I saw her in Hello Dolly on Broadway. She was just amazing! and I had never seen something like that: when she had her first entrance to the stage, there was a standing ovation for minutes and then the show continued after the applause! She was sooo good and playful in that role!
I always loved to see her in a mermaid costume in a wheelchair!!! Loved all her movies!! She has made alot of people laugh even the raonchy and gaudy!!!
@maggiaebi8323, you are right, Bette Midler is so precious to all of us, no one has ever made us feel this way, the love in her heart is real, most compassionate person I've ever known
No one like Bette! Period! I could catch any movie in the middle and I have to finish it because of Bette. God bless her new path in this crazy business. Simply beautiful inside and out. Still a beauty to be behold.
An is right: one of the best concerts I have EVER been to was Bette Midler in DC. Skits, acting out songs, fabulous music! (No auto tune there), musicians, dancers and audience was fantastic! She was so engaging, such a performer. Love her! ❤❤🎵🎵👑
I literally just came from watching this movie and it was so fun!! I laughed a lot! I hope everyone takes the time to just put out serious lives in the back burner and raise your spirits with this awesome flick.
Bright light of Love, humor, beauty, feelings, THAT VOICE,...love her...and thank you for sharing....you are here to entertain...and perform....thank you YOU DID IT
@TinaSATX, yes me too, love watching her interviews, sometimes she gets emotional, but that is why we love her so much, she isn't fake, she's real, and has such a tender heart,
We saw her too, only because the hotel was offering free tickets (with a buffet) to fill the theater. All I remember is the cheesy and cheap production, and how terribly off key her singing was. People were literally squirming in their seats. Interestingly, we also saw her old piano accompanist, Barry Manilow, during that same time. He was equally bad.
Bette is a truly inspiring decent human, I adore her. Beaches is the same for me - A CRYING FEST. it is me and my best friend I lost to cancer in our 40's.
Unique and wildly talented, and her center of humbleness had her believing she peaked at 34. Nope. Love that Bette Midler exists and is still performing
I love her movies. She's fabulous. She's charismatic. She's gifted. Who doesn't love That Old Feeling or Down and Out in Beverly Hills😂?❤ And What a beautiful singing voice.
She has made me very happy so often with her singing and acting. I am so glad her daughter and husband give her great joy.
There is NO ONE like her! Truly unique! I am gobsmacked at her talent! And that face, that skin at her age! Stunning!
She will never know how much I love her
Bette Midler is incredible, talented, beautiful, and a really great human being. What a life!
"Big Business" is one of her most underrated films ever, but I've always loved it.
✨✨❤❤
So camp, and I love that it's now on Disney+
YES!
"Is that how we dress for the office? You look like a blood clot!" 😂😂😂😂😂
A comedy classic!
Bette Midler is very special and relatable

My voice continues to be silent yet you have always given me the courage of alone I am everything without a badge

I saw Ms. Midler’s show in Vegas and it was the best show ever 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
We saw her too, only because the hotel was offering free tickets (with a buffet) to fill the theater. All I remember is the cheesy and cheap production, and how terribly off key her singing was. People were literally squirming in their seats. Interestingly, we also saw her old piano accompanist, Barry Manilow, during that same time. He was equally bad.
you know something, if I had only one thing to say, it wouldn't have been this , try a little compassion, it won't hurt you
Love Bette ❤
I love her song God is watching us from a distance.Nice interview.
Bette is one of those who we really need an autobiography from!!! Alongside all the great ladies over 70!!
She's written several books....
@@bees.857 I am so sorry! I meant an autobiography. Not the one from 1980. 🥴
@@craftywool I just found out she wrote a children's book, it's so cute 🥰
Never drink and drive. Never drive distracted. Please...stay safe on the roads! For yourself and others.
Love her.
