Bette Rogge interviews singer Lesley Gore

[@RodneyDodson]

I don't know if it's because she's a lesbian but she has feminine and masculine energy to her personality that has its own kind of beautiful allure. I see that in some women. It's rarer but it's very attractive.

[@juani.floresalanis2398]

Wait shes lesbian? Thats gonna make me love her even more 😭❤

[@exhocmomentopendetaeternit9096]

@@juani.floresalanis2398 yes she was!❤

[@jackjules7552]

I saw that about her as far back as 1964 when she was singing those dippy cotton candy songs that everyone seemed to love.

[@davidmorris6443]

She gay my friend

[@RodneyDodson]

@@davidmorris6443 I know. I said she was a lesbian :)

[@clev1729]

Leslie was gorgeous, beautiful, and intelligent..ageless beauty with no ego…🌺

[@paddycampbell6020]

Love this interview, she had such a wonderfully soft voice and was beautiful. Thank you for this.

[@paddycampbell6020]

+Adam Hood Glad someone else also thinks so too! I would say maybe a refined New York type accent. She was very well spoken.

[@thegreatsixties]

Absolutely 🤩❤️ shes gorgeous 🍀🥂 watch my Instagram channel frommywindow961

[@boop8641]

Lesleys talking voice is so soothing❤️ I could fall asleep to this interview lol

[@dalilagarcia7230]

Lesley was absolutely stunning. 🥰

[@5XWCWCHAMPION]

A really classic clip. Although Lesley was much younger, they both passed away only about one month exactly apart in a strange coincidence.

[@bettymartinez7027]

Just lovely.

[@Voxpopoli8753]

I was and am completely besotted with Lesley Gore ...i had her pic framed and walled it. Is it infatuation or love ❤️ 😍 my heart goes out to her .....4ever 😊 RIP baby!!!

[@RealBigBadJohn]

They're not social distancing.

[@inkpen9547]

She is literally in-her-face...

[@isla4953]

She seemed very interested in Leslie and could have known she was a lesbian then, but maybe it was just her interviewing style lol.

[@producttester5462]

Lol true... It looked like they were flirting

[@RossDia]

@@producttester5462 lol

[@hervenuslove]

interviewer all up in her face 😭

[@linw3897]

Lesley blushing when the interviewer was complimenting her was so cute, her little lesbian came out oof :’)

[@kimwood9119]

Lesley's dimples.

[@lindastjohn5007]

Precious Lesley. So dear and sweet. RIP beautiful angel,♥️

[@jackjules7552]

She was not so dear and sweet when I met her. I ran into her not long after this interview and I complemented her on her performance on The TAMI show which was playing at a revival movie theatre in NYC. She responded by being nasty. As I tried to think of something else to say that would make her less nasty she transformed herself into the wicked witch of the East. I ran away as fast as my legs would take me.

Kristen Stewart needs to play her!

[@katiedunlap235]

YES

[@cloudyswildride]

YES

[@litealite]

Would be awesome if they make a movie about her life !

[@tryste_mx]

And Gillian Anderson as older Leslie

[@marclemonmusic]

Lol plenty of strange comments but I can top them...I could have turned out differently if I'd met such a beautiful and refined young lady.....but there might have been a slight problem...best pop records and one of the best singers of a great era

[@morrisdennis]

She was gorgeous

[@JR-he6fn]

That lady must have coffee breath with how close she’s talking to Lesley

[@hoobie7588]

Lesley Gore was so classy. Doesn’t matter what her sexual preference was. I’m a huge fan and wish I had known her. I’m hoping someone loved her very much.

[@ABRASILERA17]

I keep watching......

[@violetlunna]

Damn this is too close lol

[@johnmarshall6271]

Love that gal!

[@millers3888]

A great talent like Lesley Gore and she asks “what are you eating?” Yikes…

[@colindant3410]

When was this interview?

[@Yugvijay]

How-

[@lamb92]

Summer of 1970

[@colindant3410]

@@lamb92 Thanks.

[@litealite]

It was so nice to see her at this age. Usually it's either very young or older. I'd guess she was about 27-28 here .

[@HexStrain]

@@litealite Yeah

[@Yugvijay]

I thought dimple was an Indian word xD

[@davidmorris6443]

My older sister's friend knows that Lesley Gore is a lesbian because according to my oldest sister Rita is a lesbian herself

[@MyNameisDC]

“Look At those pimples” What a weird thing to say, I would lowkey be somewhat insulted deep down 😂

[@leona6677]

Dimples

[@boop8641]

Dimples not pimples lmao

[@rcperry2000]

Dimples...

[@producttester5462]

She looked like Ellen

[@miachichi]

Ellen wishes!

[@nickpavia9021]

Degeneres? Ewww, no way. They are on opposite ends of the beauty scale.

[@ИванБровкин-с3б]

Жаль что она не встретила хорошего мужчину...

[@mkatznelson]

Могу предположить, что ей этого совсем не требовалось, она была вполне счастлива со своей партнершей.

[@НиколайЛускарев]

@@mkatznelson Странно, что в своих песнях она пела про отношения с противоположным полом. Хотя она в основном пела про страдания, это многое объесняет.

[@mkatznelson]

@@НиколайЛускарев почему Вы находите это удивительным? Лесли выступала в 60-х. Как, думаете, сложилась бы её карьера, если бы она распевала о своих истинных чувствах? Более того, насколько я знаю (и как это было принято в то время), она была именно исполнителем, а не сочинителем, то есть её главной задачей было воспроизведение... И как она воспроизводила!... :)

[@НиколайЛускарев]

@@mkatznelson К сожалению, мне мало что известно о её жизни и биографии, но она, как и все талантливые люди, была непонятна и недооценена(

[@mkatznelson]

@@НиколайЛускарев не сказала бы. Она огромное количество чартов возглавляла, её песни пользовались большим успехом. Непонята -- это уже дело другое; это, скорее, бич времени. Кстати, надо отметить, что сама она говорила, что никогда не чувствовала нужны скрываться из-за своей ориентации. Сильная была женщина!
