Kato is so likable! He has a 💗of gold because during the interview he looked a bit teary-eyed. He's an upstanding citizen & deserves all the best in life.
It is stunning the jurors were waving to him and the judge didn’t remove them.
I'm an African American & YES, he did it! That criminal trial jury is an embarrassment 😐
Well, I’m a black man (not African American) and k believe Oj did it as well. However, he is not guilty by law, and rightfully so. It’s called facts, not feelings!! It’s is why I don’t believe in horrors. The whole case was reasonable doubt the minute the cops collected the first piece of evidence. Each and every cop admitted under oath they made several, not one, but several mistakes personally. Then, they admitted others made mistakes. You can’t convict a person with that many mistakes being made.
I’m glad to hear you say this. I’m white, For me, it doesn’t matter what nationality he is. I feel he did it too. The attorneys for the prosecution did a poor job and the jury voted as they saw fit. Even OJ looked shocked at the verdict. But karma has gotten OJ and he will spend the rest of his life paying. Sad situation for sure.
@@doloresstatham3022 I agree. It is a very sad situation. I think there was a reasonable doubt, if we consider the mistakes and lies on the part of the investigators, namely Furhman. He most likely did it but to be fair, they couldn't convict for many reasons, including the racial climate at the time and still to this day. Nicole and Ron and their families didn't get justice in part because of racial disparities in the country, which is very sad.
@@doloresstatham3022 You do not know the evidence,there's EDTA.
@@philipwilliams1754 What is EDTA?
Kato is an articulate individual. Shame on me (and anyone else) for being surprised.
I wish him the very best.
Kato knows ROCKY ain't sylestre Stallone
Agreed.
Quoting Steve Harvey, “O. J. Killed everyone in that driveway!”
OJ went to Kato’s door and ask for change because this was his attempt to start his alibi. He was never going to get food that’s why OJ paused when Kato asked if he can go with him.
I was just thinking how odd it is that Kato would be "overstepping his bounds" when the guy actually came to HIS door asking for change. Your theory actually makes a lot of sense.
@@sdssteward .....The way I interpret that is that O.J. was surprised by Kato, who already lived in the guest house rent-free, inviting himself along to get a free meal. Someone unexpectedly tagging along like he did often turns a quick solitary food run into a social one, and threw O.J.'s timing of later events out of whack, too. Unless O.J. tells us, we'll never be certain if McD's was actually his goal.
@@msr1116 I interpret it as the latter. He wasn't even going for food at all. Kato called his bluff unintentionally so for a minute there, OJ had to pause and quickly decide his next move.
msr111 if you watch the trial, Kato actually paid for both his food and OJ’s at McDonald’s
@@bleachedout ...Which is surprising. Bec for a guy who's already living rent free, mooching a cheap meal off O.J. doesn't seem beneath him.
I remember about a year after the trial, my wife and I were walking in to some place in West L.A. as Kato was walking out. We caught each others eye and I sensed right away how uncomfortable he seemed with the nature of his "fame" at that time. He shot my wife and I a nervous smile out of politeness since we clearly recognized him from the trial. I could tell even then that he was a relatively humble, decent guy.
this is the stupidest comment I have ever read
@@briandouglas1701 Actually, this one is.
I met him outside of a comedy club and he was as nice, friendly and gracious as one could be. asked my name, where I was from, what I did, how my vacation was. extremely nice.
He appears to be a man who needs to just grow up.
@B L OJ has a cookie jar? what is in the jar?
I’d love to have tea with this man. Super communicative, pragmatic, smart and empathetic.
I would love to go grocery shopping with this guy. That would be fantastic.
Kato is so nice. I like that he doesnt shy away from any question, like if he thinks OJ did it.
Kato was the second killer
@@theeagle7054 that's friggin hilarious
Ok.
Kato is sooo likeable. I can't understand why he is getting so much hate. He seems like an awesome guy.
+Daniela Graf We believe what the media tells us and more so then. He was a "slacker" and a "free loader" who didn't want to say anything to upset his free ride. The truth is that he was very close to Nicole and all the kids. When he was questioned by Marsha Clark he hadn't seen the evidence against OJ. That came out later. He was in a tough spot and I believe trying to be as honest as possible.
Philip Williams where’s your face so we can judge yours? Lol!🤨
Kayo was (and still is ) kind of goofy but it's obvious he wouldn't hurt a fly. Yes he seems to be a good guy.
All about media manipulation
If he says OJ is innocent he’d be a hated man! Get it right. He knows which side his bread is buttered!
Newfound respect for this guy after watching multiple interviews with him. I don't envy his position or his place in this drama at all. I'm sure he's carried a lot of trauma and he seems to have done it with humility and the ability to just move forward.
Kato you are a really nice guy. Forget the haters. You know your truth. ☺
Kato is a cool man... OJ is a insane, sick human
I get the feeling Kato is a nice, good, honorable man- He certainly never deserved the bad press he has received back then or now-
He seems like a really positive and enjoyable human being.
Yes, and definitely the most genuine and level of that entire OJ/Nicole circle.
During the trial he acted like he is autistic.
OJ is INNOCENT !!
JASON SIMPSON IS THE KILLER !!!
Kato knew OJ and he knows OJ killed Nicole. It's as obvious as knowing the sun is coming up next morning.
Not slutty at all. He reminds me of Jay Leno.
You must be a really great person for Larry King to say, “I love you”.
I remember watching the trial, listening to Marcia Clark talk about the blood evidence. I knew Oj was guilty. I had wished that Nicole and Ron would appear in court, as ghosts and point the finger at Oj.
OJ IS INNOCENT !!
JASON SIMPSON IS THE KILLER. !!!
OJ clearly did it. It's sad. How can he live with himself??
If that would have happened I’m sure there still would be people believing that’s he didn’t do it
You do know that alot of the Blood was planted hey???
I like Kato, he comes across as a really nice, kind, good man
Sabrina Jones hes a bullshitting moocher, that just says what people want to hear.
I think back then it maybe was somethin petty like his hair ??? And they asummed he was a freeloader.
He tells the court on the stand that he's an "actor". Trying to get noticed by hollywood directors.
Good God, those people who tweeted those awful things to him are despicable! What a bunch of lowlifes.
He reminds me of Micheal J. fox.. .
Kato looks good for 55!
iamtherealwus No stress, no high powered career. He just flies by the seat of his pants.
55? I think he looks great. 55 may be old to you. All I can say is don't blink. I'll be long gone, but you'll be thinking, I wonder if I look as good as Kato did at my age.
oyinbo peppe he's a LOSER. He got on the stand and stuttered like a pos pretending he didn't know anything. He heard a loud thud when O.J ran behind his guest house and dropped his bloody glove on his way back from killing two people.
Lisa Lund He knew OJ would get away with it. If he testified to something horrific, OJ would've killed him or had him killed. I think for self preservation, his testimony was pretty smart. He didn't volunteer to testify. He was subpoenaed. He had no choice but to get on the stand.
Roxanne Moser He was also subpeoned to tell the TRUTH which he did not.
I'm an Uber driver and one night I gave Kato a ride. I didn't recognize who he was because I didn't look at him when he first got in my car. He asked if I was okay after coughing on my own spit unexpectedly. It was only after he was getting out of my car when I turned back and recognized him. And yes, he's sort of a back seat driver. He was cool guy, I guess.
wow...
You could go over a few speed bumps and ask him to thump on the back seat to indicate how many there were.
So you don’t look at or talk to any of your customers?
@@russoswerve3974 I have never had an uber driver that didn't talk my ear off.
@@B-ch6uk lol
Good interview. Larry asked good questions. And Kato was very forthright in answering them.
Kim Magazine it's obvious Larry likes him
Kato seems so sincere and friendly, no malice on his behavior, so whatever haters say about him is and never affected him, I am glad-
Larry King, always an excellent interviewer. A perfect person to have a chat with. This is a great episode.. I was glued to the trial on TV., every time something was to be aired, if I couldn’t get to it, I’d have it taped. I’m glad that Kato can move forward. That things are getting better for him.
I disagree!--He interrupts WAY too much!--Irritating
@@lynx6124 Not only that but he is never focused. The interviewer would be talking about an important topic and he ignores it and asks another question that is completely off topic. I also noticed that he is sometimes ignorant or has little information about his guests as if he is nonchalent.
@@JL-uo1di He's only interested in OJ..... Kato thinks Larry is his friend but he's not.
I always liked Kato. I thought it was a sign of how much those children loved him by the way they called their dog Kato. I thought he was trying hard to be honest on the stand, whilst being under huge pressure. He seems vulnerable and a bit kid like, and I quite like that about him.
4 REAL no...the children named the dog after him.
I'm a southerner myself, but I see that "kid-like" quality as one of the aspects of north-midwestern (Minnesota/Wisconsin/rural Michigan/Dakotas) cultural influence on him. There is a certain earnest "boyishness" that used to characterize a notable percentage of the men. And a corresponding "friendly girlishness" among the women.
*Great interviews with some fascinating people. ... hope many of these videos go viral (eventually)*
Kato, I have to say your geniality and character shines through in your interview and your personality. So happy life is going well for you! Great interview, I saw for the first time. Keep up your good Wisconsin roots in Hollywood 😃💐
Nicole hated Kato
@@xxxbrooklynwrong
Larry King was an awesome interviewer. I am sure he is in heaven interviewing again... RIP
He was a great interviewer but unfortunately Larry did not believe in God, therefore is not in heaven. So sad.
@FightingSioux
During an interview Larry King mentioned he was agnostic. I await his interview with god--that might convince me.
You can see that Kato is a very nice honest guy very truthful in what he says
p.s. leather shrinks... duh.. and who ever put leather gloves over latex.. after they are dried..??? really !no lawyers or judges grasped that???
teri burt I've had that same thought all these years. Absolutely leather would shrink from liquid/blood. And latex gloves.... Ya. Smdh. That has always bothered me!!
I know my thot years ago.. and it never seemed THAT anyone in court ever brought that point up!! Thank you !!! Finally someone !!! Lol
Doesn't matter if the gloves fit or not. Do you actually believe OJ killed 2 people without sustaining any injuries except a small cut on his finger? You people are fools.
We know Goldman fought for approx 10 minutes and had defense wounds all over his knuckles. OJ had arthritis and could barely jump. And sorry to inform you but Nicole was a coke addict, possibly crack addict. Ron Goldman was a drug dealer. That whole crowd including Resnik where coke fiends. This was a drug hit guys, period.
Jim Jim
Hey Jim, how ya doin buddy?
You say OJ has arthritis and can’t jump and I think in another post, you said he couldn’t climb stairs without using the handrails?
How about this video that was recorded 2 weeks before the murders? Looks like he’s moving pretty well here🤔
ruclips.net/video/Aroma1qjO_A/видео.html
You always say in your posts that Nicole was a coke addict, yet none was found in her system nor on her.
You say in your posts that Ron was a drug dealer, yet where is your proof? Show me a link or an article to substantiate what you’re saying here.
You always claim this was a drug hit, but offer no proof🤷🏻♂️
This guy doesn’t think it was a drug hit either, but someone who was enraged and knew the area.
ruclips.net/video/z4OtBkANQwI/видео.html
Yes Edward Yu Are Totally Right
thank you Larry King. you are still the best!
Larry I always watched you on CNN. Watching this interview reminds me just how wonderful you are. God bless you Larry King! Kato is a real sweetheart! Kind and honest heart ~ easy to understand why Larry said he loved kato. That tells who Kato is as a person with those words come from Larry!
Those two are very much alike, just wonderful people
Larry is dead now.
God Bless Kato
When oj came to Kato to ask if he had change for $100 he was trying to create an alibi because he intended to go and do the deed right then ( and have plenty of time to get back home and then catch the plane) but Kato messed up his plans by inviting himself along, thus the pause before agreeing to let him come along to get something to eat.
You are so wrong !!
Jason Simpson is the KILLER !!
@@carolecompton9270 you're an idiot
Stop spreading lies and do proper research before posting bs.
I know this is old, but my goodness this man has aged so well. He looks great.
Gotta love Larry King...may he forever reign. Kato seems like a nice person. He was young, a bit foolish ( side effect of youth ), enjoying life and in the wrong place at the worst time.
ROCK-KATO-HARD PLACE...he deserves to live his life in peace
Kato matured into a decent guy... He never lied to back up Simpson he told it as it happened on that faithful night , that Simpson was behind his flat and dropped that glove it was Simpson who made that noise not Fuhrman no matter how much of a racist he is portrayed as ...
He didnt say OJ was behind the flat, he only talked about the thumps!
Kateo knows nothing but what he told to say. A free loader
Fateful
it could never have been Mark Fuhrman, as this occured well before the cops even knew about the murders.
I think Kato was always a decent guy. He came off as an airhead but I think that was more to nerves than anything else.
It's amazing to me.... The way this case has stuck in America's mind for so long. I remember I was in the 9th grade when I saw the chase live. I'm 43 now and something struck a chord for me to start doing some research into Podcasts and that led me to YT and now I am here 4 evenings later. I have listened to the deal..... Both sides... With more mature ears... It's amazing to me how we judge people and 30 yrs later we hear this man still deals with hateful comments about him being a bum etc. He was in the wrong place at the right time and honestly it could have been anyone had any other frat guys been in this spot any one of us would have liked to had lived in a NFL legends pool house and partied in the in crowd and if you say you wouldn't have wanted to been in the in crowd of Hollywood you really should think back what it would have been like Pre Nicole getting slaughtered and how much fun it probably was in the good times. I admire Kato for keeping his sanity as best as he can and managing the downside of becoming a well known face in American homes for such a horrific crime. I like Kato and I pray that he has continued success and gets to make the living I feel like he deserves because regardless of what we think it's still affecting his life today. Thank You Mr. King for being a class act and giving this gentleman the respect he deserves. This is why we all should love Larry King. Generate Love and Displace Hate. RG
Kato seems so genuine and nice. I appreciate his openness and honesty about OJ being the m*rderer. Most other key figures are always vague. And I’m glad Kato kept including Ron Goldman in the convo. I watched Kato’s season of Big Brother and even got the live feeds to get a glimpse of what he’s like.
I always thought he was credible. Still seems so.
There was a reason OJ and Nicole liked him and invited him to rent out the guest house, he is a sweet guy. I didn't know he was friends with the Kardashians. It's interesting that he thought OJ did it and so did Kris Jenner, two people who knew him well. Why did the dishonest media make him out to be a lazy free loader, he is far from it.
Robert Kardashian even that he stuck with oj into the end he though oj is guilty and even stop talking to him after the case
If Kris Jenner said ON was innocent her daughters would not have the fame they do!
Marsha Clarks hair became a issue also. Twas a circus...
Great interview. Kato is one of the most maligned people in history. He has handled himself and his situation with more dignity and humor than about anyone I've heard of ever.
Distinctly remember attending the same high school at the same time with Kato's daughter, Tiffany, who graduated 2 years earlier than I did. Tiffany was incredibly down to earth, vibrant and non judgmental. She managed to always treat others kindly in spite of how thick skinned she was ever since she was a little girl. Non judgmental kids and teens can be in touch with so much authenticity.
Yeah OJ did it , I’ve been listening to the civil trial deposition and I’m 100% sure
The one person oj needs to thank is Rodney King. He took that beating so oj could get acquitted.
Exactly! Finally, someone who actually gets it!!
Oh my goodness Larry! Is this your channel?! I just subscribed my darling! One of my favorite interviewers with that of a phenomenal personality & this aura! 👏 👏❤️💜🙏 Love u Larry King 👑 God bless always! - Julia Oshun Gallardo
And *thus aura - typo darling!
@@cubanjulia -More schooling.
Kato is wellspoken and seems fairly bright. Quite a contrast to when we all first heard of him , I remember the media at the trial made him out to be a dumb surfer type that just mooched off of OJ and sacked out in the bungalow behind the house.
OJ was angry with Nicole because she wasnt miserable (without him) and that she moved on quickly, that she looked good ("like a teenager, just like the guys she was dating" - OJ from 2006 interview) and that she dated younger and much better looking men - that's what enraged him so bad as well as enormous amount of jealousy. OJ is definitely a possessive man (established fact through the years), possessive men want their woman to be only theirs however they believe they have the right to date on side.
Kato was a bum and living for free he got some nerve talking about the man..
Exactly!
@@waynegilyard6810 Don’t hate on Kato, he was invited to live in a mansion for free y’all would do the same.
@@waynegilyard6810 I agree
“Of course, Kim did some other things......” (Kato pauses and smiles) 😂
What a great guy. Kato is unique.
I'd love to meet him, and just talk. I'll bet he's very interesting.
@@sherihaas8048 Yes, agree.
I really like Kato. The type of guy you want around.
That’s kind of the point though. I do think he was kind of a slacker/freeloader because he is a likable guy who people want to have around.
Kato got more than a couch to sleep on, he got a whole guest house.
For free
look at him. OJ insisted he move in instead of having Kato stay at Nicoles any longer. OJ didnt want a "pretty boy" staying with his property i mean ex wife/girlfriend.
He's seems like a cool fella.
From the first time he appeared in court, I felt he is a very genuinely nice person. Great interview!
OJ is INNOCENT !!
Jason Simpson is
THE KILLER !!
Personally I don't think Kato Kaelin is such a bad guy. I've listened to him speak on other interviews and I recently watched his testimony from the OJ Simpson trial. He seems like a very personable type of guy to me. He's very bright, articulate and very humble. All of the people who have hated him over the years don't even know what they're talking about
I don't know why but he kind of reminds me of Micheal J Fox... Similar personalities I see...
aaaaawww Kato comes across as such a lovely, kind person. I really like him. It must have been so tough to have the media perpetuating this image of him being a bum/slacker and then of course, all those dummies who believe everything they read, and basically ripping the shit out of him every chance they got. Anyone would need incredibly thick skin to come out of that still happy and believing in themselves but he has! Cheers to you, Kato! What a strong, beautiful person you are :)
Wow, you must be down under
I remember him for McDonald's for some reason
Gonna tell my kids this is Christian Slater
I love to see Kato interview O.J. simpson about the murders
Kato's an okay dude. Like many others, I too got a break on my taxes in '94/'95, by being able to claim Kato Kaelin as a dependent.
Mark DP Lol! Very witty! Have a good Christmas 🎄
Very rarely do I actually lol after reading a comment...but I actually did after reading this one.
Mark DP kato is just a moocher that said and says what people want to hear. Tell me this clown dosent know what side of his bread is buttered? He's just another lazy hanger on of Hollywood.
🤣
LOL
Finally some truth! "I'm not normal at all!"
Ron Goldman was the true hero in this trial. Without his struggle, we would have never known who the killer was.
You seriously think that or trolling? If only the wife got killed oj would still be the #1 suspect
The knife over took him...
@@leonbostick5562 thanks to Goldman though, he created the cut that caused OJ’s blood drops to be found at the scene, and he created a feeling of haste within OJ, which caused him to lose his glove and hat at the scene

Very handsome guy.
Kinda reminds me of Kevin Bacon.
Kato man you look great. May God continue to bless you in all your future endeavours!!!
Larry says OJ wasn't a violent person but he sure was to Nicole throughout the marriage
“And of course, Kim did some other things...”
Poor Kato bet he never accepted another offer like that!
imagine the horror this Man lived thru😩😩😩😩😩
He reminds me of Corey Feldman. Kinda geeky always means well.
Excepts Corey’s a NUT who tried to be Hugh Hefner
Why does he get hate messages ? He didnt do anything.
what a gracious great man Kato is. Wow!
Cool guy
Kindhearted
He did the best job he could on the stand during a f*kd up situation…
He should not be a punching bag
Hi Kato would love to follow you on social media but can't find it. Thanks
Seems like such a cool and amazing guy X
Kato has tears in his eyes. Poor man!
Dude would have been a billionaire had there been social media back then.
Mr king missed very important question when Kato said he thinks simpson did it, He forgot to ask him why he thought so, It would've been very revealing question.
*_LMAO!! 🤣 A billionaire sheik offered him 10 million to live with him in Saudi Arabia?? Ha that is super funny.._* 😂
I see Kato hasn't still given up on the idea of becoming a Brad Pitt 😂😂😂
In a way, he is...check out Lloyd from True Romance. That's Kato.
Larry is GUSHING over Kato
Hmm he seems like a nice guy. 👍🏻
Johnny Unitas 😆😆😆
Kato rocks! Very honest & classy!
Here in 2018! Kato, I think you're great. You handled yourself amazingly during an incredibly awkward awful time. I don't understand why youd get hate from anyone but am glad you can let it roll. You remind me of my brother 💯
NoW......2022....
October !!!
Kato and Zamslovitch ,met Nicole at a Mezzaluna in Aspen.She moved them to southern CA.
I was in my teens during the OJ trial and don’t remember too much of it. But this poor guy. The media hated him and made him out to be a terrible person. He seems really sweet and down to earth. I’m glad to see he is doing well these days.
a pauper, lived off OJ handouts.
He did not say 1 complete sentence during the trial. I thought he was autistic. Apparently it was an act for him. He's a real tool
Nah….
Everytime I go over this case again I ask myself how that jury could find OJ not guilty...and then I remember Johnny Cochran .
This is one of many reasons I don't trust the government or the sistem

Disagree
I don’t understand why ppl hate on him. He never did anything!!! So odd.
I love Kato! He’s awesome!!
Kato knows OJ did it.
Nicole hated this guy ...... that's why he wasn't invited to the recital.
I recently saw OJ at the airport. He said “What up Gangsta!” To me. I replied with “what’s up killa?!” 🤣
Cameraman keeps trying to get the bottom of that annoying aqua screen out of the shot.
WHy do they keep trying to attach the Kardashians to they OJ trial? Robert Kardashian was OJs lawyer but other than that they had nothing to do with the other members of the family
Umm did you forget Kris and Nicole were good friends? And they all even went on vacations and stuff together?
The couples were friends. Kardashian wasn't his lawyer until the trial and then didn't really do much. He had to renew his licence (or whatever it is with a lawyer) as it had expired 15 years prior. OJ and Robert and Nicole and Kris were close friends.
@@melodyd6037 But what does that have to do with kim and her sisters today ????
@@christiansoldier77 You asked why do they attach them to OJs trial. Well Robert was one of his lawyers as well as a friend, and Kim is OJs Goddaughter, and the rest is just publicity.
My question to you is when is more than one question mark necessary? Are you asking this question 4 times?
@Christian Soldier The two families were best of friends. Robert K knew OJ since college. Nicole & Kris were besties. OJ is Kim K's godfather. They all went on vacations together.
Now, about the gloves that didn't fit .... he even commented on how large OJ's hands were!
Wow he’s such a nice guy.
met kato at Hollywood Park track..cool cat good taste in women to..
Kato is a low life backstabber.He heard a noise he thought was a earthquake.It got changed to OJ running into his AC unit.
OJ was his sugar
daddy.
Now its 25 yrs.
Appreciate that interviewer and interviewee present as articulate and transparent. Find it interesting (sort of...) that tho both bothered to put on a button down shirt AND tie, neither bothered to button their top button....To be sure, a ridiculous observation, but an observation nonetheless...2 stylists fired perhaps??
Katos a very likeable man.
