Judy Garland Part 1

Newly discovered audio tapes and diaries provide rare insight into the tragic life of American icon, Judy Garland. A 20/20 report.

I didn’t realize she was only 47 when she died. She looked like she was 74 when she died. Very sad. 😢

[@Ego-de4dt]

Jeremiah Alan that’s a great point.

[@nuckinfuts7610]

I was dumbfounded when I heard them say she was 47. She really did look like she was in her golden years. And then to learn why she appeared so worn, total heartbreak. I feel for her. How I wish she was able to experience the same profoundly genuine joy that she made *countless* others feel. This is no doubt tragically unfortunate, but it certainly doesn't tarnish her legendary status that she so rightfully earned. Nor does it erase the permanent mark she left on sooo many people's hearts. She was a remarkable presence. If there is life after death, I strongly hope Judy's afterlife is far more better, and far less cruel than the one here on Earth was to her. She deserves nothing less. They just don't make 'em like Judy Garland anymore. 🌈❤️

[@danneyxxx6614]

@@8_bruh_8 true...its sad and disgusting

[@erinvandalayyy7507]

It's because Hollyweird had/has an odd obsession with trying to emaciate the female form. It's why the skeletal Victoria Secret fashion show is allowed every year on tv, yet a commercial that showed curvy women in lingerie was banned, claiming it was too much. Overly skinny is "safe."

[@sarahholland1375]

The studio system back then had most actresses on diet & mood elevator pills not just Judy. They had to conform to a very rigid idea of 'beauty'. It's very abusive & very sad. One studio head even had actresses menstrual cycles plotted on a calendar so they couldn't plead 'women's problems' illness etc. When Judy was 15 she did 10films in 9months & collapsed on set with exhaustion. The Dr stated she need a year off. The studio gave her 3 weeks. No wonder she felt her mother failed her.

@Light in the Piazza I guess I'm going by how the average 47 year old looks. I really do admire Judy Garland. I'm a true fan. Just was noticing she looks older than her years.

[@nuckinfuts7610]

I was dumbfounded when I heard them say she was 47. She really did look like she was already in her golden years. To put it further into perspective, she passed away at age 47, which means these interview clips of her were sometime *before* 47. Regardless of her generation or the era at the time, she appears noticeably older than a woman in her late 40s. And to learn why she appeared so worn is heartbreaking. Drugs played only one dark role out of countless others. For decades, since her early childhood, Judy was visited daily by the feelings of utter exhaustion, no self-worth, tremendously overworked, deep anxiety, even deeper depression, high demands from top execs, endless pressure from the many toxic twats that used and abused her, etc. I feel for her. How I wish she would've experienced the same heartfelt joy that she made countless others feel. This is all no doubt tragically unfortunate, but it certainly doesn't tarnish her legendary status that she rightfully earned, nor does it erase the permanent mark she left on sooo many people's hearts. If there truly is life after death, I sure hope Judy's afterlife is far more better, and far less cruel than the one here on Earth was. They just don't make 'em like Judy Garland anymore. 🌈❤️

She gave to much of her heart and soul to everyone and it left her feeling empty! You never felt loved for who you really were, and you gave all of yourself to the world. Thank you so much for giving so much to the world! And I am so sorry you you felt unloved but, you were loved by millions! God bless you and your Heavenly voice. Judy Sherry

love Judy Garland I have tons of pictures, and I have a piece of her hair and a piece of the dress that she wore in Wizard of Oz. I could never get tired of listening to her music or watching her movies but every time I do there's this part of me that just is so sad for her. From the time she was 2, she was put on that stage and all her mother cared about was making her a cash cow her mother is the one that started the pep pills and all that but MGM had no problem continuing it. Nobody cared about her well-being her mental state or anything they just wanted her to sing. All she ever wanted was to be loved and all her husbands were gay "except for one". Judy even caught one of her husbands in bed with her daughter's husband and she caught Vincente Minnelli in bed with another man, so I'm sure she felt like there was something wrong with her and that she wasn't good enough to be loved. I will say though that she was absolutely beautiful and she had a beautiful heart and there will never be another Judy Garland ever.

Wow, she looked 20 years older than she was....all the alcohol & pills ages you so fast. Sad

[@Ghaffar_KH]

She was living her life expecting to become a mother, and in a couple of minutes, it was all take from her. I can’t even begin to express the rage that I have towards her mother.

[@ilovebeinagirl]

Aw, poor thing. I'm sorry she went through all of that.

5:17-Seems like she may have been an early victim of the #MeToo movement before it was a thing.

Her sad life remembers me to Edith Piaf

How terrible the way she was used and then to think her own mother was such a monster too....her self esteem was destroyed by all these users at such an early age.... and then they took away her hard earned money and yet they could never take away that voice....Rest In Peace Judy 💜💜💜💜

I feel so bad for this poor woman.

[@radhadas3339]

Why didn't someone help her? Lorna Luft's father or Liza Minnelli's? Someone? Judy Garland was robbed!

The only thing wrong about this is that TOTO wasn't a he, TOTO was played by a girl dog by the name TERRI!

[@terrygrant2028]

Anthony Carrera I don’t know if Toto was a girl or not, but you are almost right Toto’s real name was TERRY, NOT TERRI.

[@summerjones7904]
