CAROL BURNETT on LUCILLE BALL - Diva on Diva

[@kcindc5539]

The way Lucy flipped out when Dinah said Carol was there, that’s a deeply abiding love and respect on a level I can’t even comprehend

[@gojewla]

Carol Burnett seems like such a nice person.

[@pamsatira1753]

lucy's reaction when she heard carol's name was priceless

[@SaxonC]

Love these two women! Every time I see Lucille Ball perform, I see Lucy Ricardo, the funniest female character ever created! It’s impossible hear the name, Lucille Ball with thinking, “ I love Lucy”. Love and Lucy are synonymous! ❤️

[@yaywhewclips242]

I preferred the Lucy show over I L L

[@Gio_Vanni6143]

Lucy and Carol are national treasures.

[@jasminnemcdonald94A]

Lucy was an icon in her day. Still is an icon in Heaven.

[@ClarkRahman]

This really made me cry. Love is love

[@Celticcross688]

Met both these Ladies in 1977 at the Beverley Hilton.. at Lucy's 25th Anniversary.. among other Famous stars who attended.

Miss Bee I was lucky, it was Lucy's 25th Anniversary Nov 1977.. met all the guests, Jack Lemmon, John Wayne, Jimmy stewart, Henry Fonda, George Burns, Mary Tyler Moore.. ZZ Gabore Sammy Davis Junior... to name but afew.

Lucy did a corny movie in 1951 ("The Magic Carpet") and she was thrust into television immortality soon after

[@LJ-ht4zs]

The Magic Carpet was the world's worst movie - she was fulfilling a contract - think she had to make it in a few weeks - and she was pregnant with her daughter Lucie Arnaz. (as Desi said, when Lucy was pregnant and he gestured like she was a whale) every week the fitting people had to let out her costume.) Funny story and it took guts to make the world's worst movie- truly awful. She was happy to be pregnant, happy to have fulfilled her contract and that was that! I am sure that movie did not make a dime, but she did.

[@learleywells4498]

I'm a fan of Lucille Ball. I have most of her DVD's. But almost at the end of this video--->17:14 it begins to get sad for me. As I watch this almost at the end it brought me to tears. I have always wanted to meet Lucille Ball years ago when I was a teen, and she was alive and well. But I never did. It was a shock to me when I heard she passed away. :'( :(

[@kalevala29]

I like how female comedians don't seem to compete with each other. They can share the spotlight.

[@daisymay9203]

To hear that Lucy died on carols birthday and carol still receive flowers from her made my heart break what a great friend Lucy was and a comedy legend 🧡

[@yaywhewclips242]

April 26th My birthday!!

[@jazzmanchgo]

Yes -- very moving story.

[@lucaswallo8127]

That's amazing

[@spitfireaace]

Omg stunning fact. Lucy died on Carol's birthday.

[@scotnick59]

LaBall loved to play with frilly outfits she wore on these shows: therapeutic I think

[@sheryldollspoohlinsley8510]

Hi, Thanks For Finding & Posting!😁🤗🐽✌❤,Sheryl

[@scotnick59]

Lucy could have been a "Diva bitch" towards Carol; not a bit of it; Lucy was VERY supportive of Carol and I think that is really marvelous

[@stacystoltz8722]

Lucky And Caroline Funny Woman ontv Attime

[@nomdeplume7537]

I've just noticed something ... there's an inconsistency in Carol's story about how she and Lucy met. Initially she said, 'I made the mistake of looking out the curtain, and in the 2nd row, there was Lucy, red hair, all lit up' Then, the next time she reminisced, it was '.. word made it back stage that Lucy was in the audience' Trivial distinction yes, but a noticable one

[@nothisispatrick6332]

Maybe she meant that once word got back stage, she made the mistake of actually confirming for herself that Lucy was in fact there.

[@wrathfang]

lucy was beautiful.

[@carollund8251]

This is nice because if Carol Burnett liked her so much she must have been a nice person. I have read several times comments from KZbinrs claiming that she was a horrible bitch on planes, treated the stewardesses and passengers so rudely. I have always hoped that wasn't true because it would be so disappointing, as I always loved Lucy so much.

[@kaneliroman6925]

What year was this talk show 70s ?

[@shirleypena4133]

Did anyone else here notice that Carol told two slightly different versions of each of those stories involving Lucy? I wonder which of the stories is accurate?

[@bobbyokeefe4285]

Got old after a while...wha-man...wha-man...wha-man,in deed women tend to be less funny then men and there aren't as much female comedians for evolutionary/cultural reasons,they just don't need to,to attract the opposite sexe,it's a rarity no need to shove it in.

[@jakevendrotti1496]

What a tom fool comment. Your defensive jealousy is an embarrassment to us all 🙄

[@bobbyokeefe4285]

@@jakevendrotti1496 Blow me you virtue signaling fool,that's not even the definition of jealousy,good for her for being successful,the whining just got annoying at a point in the vid,and I maintain,women aren't as funny as men,FACT,Lucille Ball is no Jerry Lewis and Amy Schumer is no Dave Chappelle.

[@LJ-ht4zs]

What are you saying - what got old after awhile? I Love Lucy had 5 or 6 seasons beginning in 1951 - and has been playing somewhere the world since then. Apparently it did not get old for the world - I have seen the series several times, and still get belly laughs. I ❤Lucy The Fabulous 4 on the show and also love Lucille Ball.

[@redmanish]

7:12 is so cute, watching Lucy play with her necklace. It’s something my mom and grandma would always do when I was wearing jewelry. That type of ease between them is more evidence of how close they were.

[@jennjeffs4893]

Funny how overlooked she was for so long... She's so beautiful and even when she's not being funny, she still stands out!! She definitely deserved more attention than she got in the beginning, but She definitely demanded it in I love Lucy cuz she was amazing! I don't just love Lucy, I admire and will always love Lucy!

[@markwhitman72]

Lucille Ball was also very pretty and WAS AND WILL ALWAYS be the greatest comedy actress of all time!!

[@amberkelly3187]

Lucy was beautiful.

I saw Lucy when she was 63 and was still a knock out

[@merediththomas2329]

I love these ladies so much!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@bernlin2000]

Lucy might have been a bit of a diva, but Carol Burnett is very much anti-diva. Love their relationship, Lucy clearly adored Carol.

[@TheBraveIntrovert]

Never heard of her being a diva, I heard a stern business woman though.

[@jennibudde8358]

@@TheBraveIntrovert Exactly, and if you are a woman, that means diva or bitch

[@guyinsf]

I've never read or heard anyone say that Lucy was ever a diva, I've only heard that behind the camera she was very serious and hard working but acting like a big star and better than anyone else I don't think Lucy was ever that.

[@stacynels4]

Chris.,That IS Very Degrading Towards The Memory Of Movies And Television Artistry of Lucille Ball.!!

[@annajacob7981]

@@jennibudde8358 Sadly, yes. Being a serious businesswoman is stereotype-cast and criticized by insecure men. Come on, it's 2021. The endless envy and hypocrisy make me vomit.

The Dinah clip is absolute joy.

[@scotnick59]

Have heard that Lucy wasn't "classy" enough to be a big star in her MGM days. She was a poor gal from Jamestown. Then came TV....and it hurled her into show biz immortality!

[@LJ-ht4zs]

I had not heard that she wasn't classy enough, but somehow, as Carol said, they did not know that she had this great comedic talent - however, I loved other dramas she made like Lured (Charles Laughton, George Sanders, Cedric Hardwick sp.

[@jennibudde8358]

typical misogyny. you don't need to call them divas. They are clearly not

[@gojewla]

Jenni Budde I don’t think it’s really misogyny, but trying to sensationalize. Still, they are not actually divas unless they are singing in an opera.

[@ImnotassweetasIusedtobe]

Yes, exactly! A gay man made these videos I think, and gay male misogyny is still misogyny.

[@LJ-ht4zs]

@@gojewla the way the word diva is often used - she's a diva - is meant that she is a b****

[@kylegreen3247]

A diva is an opera singer with an extraordinary vocal range. That’s it.
