Kelsey Grammer: Homeless, sleeping in park
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 сен 2024
- Kelsey Grammer went to Juilliard on a scholarship, but still had to work two jobs to make it through the year. He would work nights at a hotel, and then immediately go to his job working construction. Grammer still struggled to make ends meet, even sleeping in the park for a few weeks. He describes the financial lessons he learned from that time, and the moment he realized he had to quit working if he was going to make it as an actor.

Kelsey is extremely well spoken and Graham is one of the best interviewers I’ve ever seen
Thinking about him being basically homeless, working 17 hours and then becomes one of the most successful television actors of all time. Inspirational.
It may be awe inspiring, but I would hope no one finds it inspirational enough to believe that this is the way to be a big success. Very few can ever make a living in the entertainment field, and not even one in a million becomes successful at it. It's hard enough to become successful in ANY field, and betting it all on the dream that you'll become this or that, just because it's your dream job, is a big mistake. That follow your dream at all costs mentality has destroyed more people and caused more heartache than cancer ever has.
Everybody loves a good rags to riches story
@@billybatts9491 If you go all in with the entertainment field, chances are you won't be a huge success, or even be able to make a living. That is the difference.
@@billybatts9491 most of the people in the entertainment business work other jobs and would not make more than poverty wages if they did not.
@@ATINKERERAre you a failed actor?
I used to work downtown Chicago he came into the shop, such a genuine kind dude.
That's nice to hear. Thanks for sharing.
I love Kelsey Grammar! Love his voice, his attitude and he’s nice. He’s more handsome now than ever!
?????????
Wow. Incredible story. Kelsey has gone through so much to be one of the best actors ever. God Bless him.
My mom works at the airport and she said he is a very friendly down to earth guy . God Bless him
Wow! Great to hear!
My parents favorite show before they passed away was Frasier. My parents, being more intellectually minded appreciated the smart wit not found in any other comedy. When I would come home for Christmas and join them, the one line that caught my attention was when Nigel said, "a handshake is as good as a hug." This was perfectly apropos for my upbringing. To let you know how we McAleers are stiffs, the first time I told my mother I loved her she giggled like a little girl.
That’s really sweet.
She sounded lovely 👍🏼
Frasier began when I was in my mid-teens and I absolutely loved it. I still watch reruns to this day. But my former teen friends found it boring, so I rarely hung out with them when it was on. If I had to choose between friends (who don't compromise when it came to the TV remote), and Frasier, I chose Frasier every time, lol!
Kelsey looks great. Better than years ago. When he mentioned doing laundry and those other chores that made me smile and chuckle. I love doing those kinds of things and drove my parents crazy because I found it very satisfying, even as a young child to help out and see the end result of my hard work. There is something so satisfying to me, even to this day, about doing laundry. Dry and fold. Iron if necessary. I’ve been ironing for 50 years. Thanks for teaching me mom! I used to polish the family shoes too. Dad was in the military and taught me the proper way...um, a little spit was involved.
This is a wonderful comment, and I can totally relate to drawing satisfaction from these seemingly mundane tasks. I offer to fold family members' laundry whenever I'm visiting.
A warm and highly intelligent man whose drive and courage I admire greatly. I’m happy to see him look and sound so content and delighted with life. He’s added much delight to my life since 1982 :)
Thank you for your humility and goodness being homeless even if it was for a short time changes you and you grow
I love his voice! Always a pleasure hearing his life stories.
Agreed.
Hello it’s dr Frasier crane.
@@Doknot-tb9ey Sup! A Frasier Crane fan?
I just have to say GOD Bless Kelsey Grammer and I would like to meet Kelsey Grammer because he is truly a great actor in movies and on Tv 📺.
This is eye opening. Makes me realise how good I've had it all my life really. Ive never been in a position where I had to work two jobs and then sleep in the park. I mean its something Im prepared to do if thats what it takes to make it in life, its just good to hear stories like that, its a wake up call.
In a lot of industries what makes the great ones great is they will do what others won’t. They learn to be comfortable being uncomfortable.
That is very astute observation
I Love ❤ Kelsey Grammer!
For every happy ending after working multiple jobs and sleeping on park benches as a “struggling” actor, there are probably another 10,000 stories that ended in drug addiction, dead-end jobs with no skills, or suicide.
I hope he knows that not everybody can do that and come out unscathed. He is very exceptional in this regard. I hope he knows that, and doesn't expect others to have that skill/luck/physiology.
He has always been an amazing guy
Good interview. Very humble man.
Man, post the full interview in one YT video
I can't stand this host. He's trying to get more $$$
I don’t know anything about the YT algorithm or money making side of this but I figure his channel would blow up with subscriptions if he would post the full length interviews & upload them. No one I would think likes watching the fragments. I’ve watched all the episodes on Amazon Prime but YT would be way more convenient for current vids. His show comes on at 130am where I’m at and I’m not staying up for that.
@@justadudeintheworldman.120 I do, I used to have a decent channel. You get paid $1 for every 1,000 subscribers. So when he makes 20 videos, he makes close to 20 times that amount.
Well you subscribe to the channel right & not the videos? So the subscribers to the channel is what pays? He would have a lot more subscribers if he posted the full interviews. If you get paid for views as well as subscribers, then I could see where that makes sense.
Have to agree. Would love to just be walking around doing stuff whilst listening to this all in one go, not having to stop every 4 or so minutes to get the next part.
Great interviewer, dickish set-up.
We've all made the mistake of taking the 2 train to 110 and Lenox. You make that mistake ONCE
Holy Crap Graham does his research!
Subscribing!
HAIL CORKMASTER THE MASTER OF THE COOOORK
Outstanding!
Love this guy ❤️
I've always thought that he could do a movie bio of Bob Hope.
He is more handsome with age
Seriously?? If this was a woman every comment about her appearance would be negative. That is a huge double standard! People lie to men, and they are critical of women.
Michelle: Oh calm down! It’s your perception. Women are complimented all the time by men who are constantly seeking female attention. Women seek validation all the time, this is why you have milfs and those other Instagram women who work so hard to get that perfect selfie and try and look so young and trim.
@@Aven-Sharma1991 What is your name? Wht do all of these symbols mean?
Michelle: My name is Ven and the “symbols” are actually my name translated into the Hindi language.
@@Michelle-pn9xt You’re very ignorant.
God bless to you
He sounds like Thomas Sowell
The restaurant that occupies O’neal’s is called Rue 57.
I love talking about when I was poor too.
How he got sleep
"his name is Michael Irvin" 😂
I wonder if his head chef was Troy Aikman and his maitre d' was Emmitt Smith.
Damn! He paid many dues
what a hustler
Pentagon Wars is one of my all time favourite!
Where about a the interview being held looks like the UK
Cali I believe? 🤔
@@HjCrawford Catskills actually, mentioned in another video. I agree, looks like Cali.
Dickhead
Nice click bait 👋👋👋
Any one for wingdings check out cheers
He didn’t do too bad, he stole Sam Malone’s girl if I remember correctly
😂😂😂 yes, Diane!
Jess Kinzel cooL😎😀
@@rightknowledgeman 🤗
WHY SLEEP IN A PARK YOU DOLT, WHEN YOU CAN SLEEP IN ONE COMFY PLACE.
Money plane.
He left jos family 14 years,in email..that i say coward.old man
can you imagine millennium brats in his situation, safe space, nazifemi generation etc LOL
How do you know any of this is true?
Having this split into a thousand tiny parts is annoying as hell. Just FYI.
This is why people work in finance. Fuck this bullshit.
No wonder you chose Coke‼️
I've watched Kelsey on so many things for so long. I never realized that he had blue eyes. Don't know why it's a shocker to me, I don't even know why I'm commenting on it. (the entire interview I was waiting for him to scream, "DON'T GET MARRIED!!! Leeches are everywhere!!!". / (hookers are a better deal and legal just outside of Vegas....and they are probably better conversationalists.)
