She was so eloquent at times and always so funny. Her wit is what I think helped her to survive. What a talent she was. We were blessed to have her and her special gifts.

[@douglasfloen6292]

I saw her at that OKeefe Centre performance and I’m alive to tell you that she was incredible...voice,power,charm...it was all there and she sang way over the allotted time.A truly magnificent evening but one seldom mentioned in any Garland forum.

[@SaxonC]

LOVE THIS LOVE THIS LOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! She was funny and had the reporters in the palm of her hand!

[@jeh500]

I love how she was funny and smart, vulnerable and strong - so many components to her personality that all worked in harmony when she sang - with that voice. That's the reason she affected people so much. I know, I was there. Saw her (starting when I was a teen,) many times in concert. Still remember every one like yesterday. Amazing talent - amazing lady.

[@clairenickle6805]

i want to give her a hug judyy ccomme back

[@WildWildWest30000]

she was such a lovely soul

[@danielemoura1983]

Yes, she was...❤️

[@grai]

What a loss that she died so young I wish she could have lived into old age - for her sake aswell as ours

[@donatord]

I saw an interview of her daughter and Liza said her mother gave her help in her acting and her mother's approach resulted in quite an impact.

[@ozboy39]

OMG- I just love when new Judy footage pops up - wow !

[@lenwelch2195]

There is a sad resigned feeling she gives off - she’s only 43 here and has the presence of a 70 yr old , reporters talk to her like she’s an invalid . She’s hazy and barely awake . She is funny and diverts her pain but it still comes through . Any energy that one has from youth is gone here . If she had been able here to go to a Betty ford center ( which there was none ) I believe she would’ve lived till 80. So sad

[@lenwelch2195]

Lee Browning she was ill , disease of chemical dependency that was little understood. At the time and w/o the proper treatment offered today .

[@marisanmarisan357]

@Lee Browning and all the fault of her mother and Louie B Meyer. She was fed pills to give her energy and pills to help her sleep along with a diet of soup and cigarettes to keep her from gaining weight starting in her early teens.

[@lapetitepapillon9101]

What the hell are you talking about lol this interview is great.

[@rivaridge7211]

I heard a recording of a single song Judy did at the O'Keefe Centre (Toronto) in February 1965 ("By Myself") and it was the best version of the song she ever did! It was true that Garland could not "be at her greatest" for an entire concert by this time (Carnegie Hall was now a lovely memory), but she was still capable (in a single song - and sometimes two or three) of wholly show-casing her tremendous volume ("full power") and control ("shimmering warmth") as one critic wrote of Judy's famous 1961 New York City (Carnegie Hall) concert. Judy would continue to sing in concert venues all over the world until her untimely death in London, June 1969. Attending a Garland concert (even in those last months) was still worth much more than the price of admission.

[@danielemoura1983]

So cute...so funny...so beautiful...so elegant...so...everything...love her so...😍

[@marisoldiaz8058]

Fabulosa, Reyna, Tesoro de la humanidad, Magnifica, Unica, un Genio de la musica, su voz , su sentido del humor, simplemente Leyenda

[@dxmxo9427]

#JudyGarland was so Smart and Intuitive..you can see on her face she was extremely proud of Liza and the rest of her children

[@OldHollywoodLove]

Thanks for the upload!

[@folkitup]

I adore her. How I wish I had been alive when she was.

[@betsystewart9786]

I ❤️ love hearing Judy in her own words

[@rgv7]

Come back, Judy. :(

[@OldHollywoodLove]

shes fabulous! thank you for sharing :)

[@JudyGarlandstarstruk]

Judy Garland has a sophisticated screen presence ..... and alot of worldly wisdom that you can just feel when watching her being interviewed by Media ''Squares'' of the 1960's !

[@RealPete]

Marvelous. Never saw this before. Would love to hear those Canadian concerts.

[@winifredatwell3982]

Micky Rooney said that the word charisma should have been retired from the lexicon after she left the world. What is striking is how intelligent this woman was. A story from the film set of A Star is Born was that JG would offer to look at a bill for a few moments and memorise the banknote's serial digits. She could then recite the full number backwards (Chico Marx had the same power of recall). She is caught here seeking to be honest and always having to be guarded, and it is tragedy that never once in her life could she avoid expectations of a performance. Never out of the spotlight since she was a toddler, there was nothing real for her - life was show business, show biz was life.

[@PeaceFan1]

Judy: G O A T !!!!

[@itsjulibeesh]

"like an old pony." Oh man she was just marvelous.

[@vicm.1499]

Fasting and pills made her look much older . Its also hard on organs and that's why she was so frail.

[@myahollandia3552]

Proud mother🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗

[@WitoldBanasik]

LOVE YOU JUDY

[@jeaniechowdury576]

She was a dear soul.

[@ktagova]

i think its true that if you wanna know how a woman will be in the future you gotta look at her mama... Liza talks just like Judy, they use the same expressions. i think judy would be very proud.

[@Dani8132m]

Beautiful, beautiful Judy :):)

[@born2lateboohoo]

lol, you are too cute. I love her seriously too! So many of us do

[@randallhenderson707]

Back in those days, a woman really did have to give lip service to the idea of good wife and mother, whatever she was actually doing. Her kids have all said that her excursions into the kitchen usually ended up with pots, pans, and food everywhere, even though it probably relaxed her to do it. Also if a star got a lot of bad press, like Judy and Elizabeth Taylor, for example, PR people would emphasize family life and motherhood as a kind of balance.

[@hikerJohn]

She sure looks good here. Probably the best she ever looked.

[@FLBoy46]

She commands that room!!!

[@lulurosevishal2763]

omg she looks so much like Lisa her daughter...

[@henryjackson2357]

LuluRose Vishal LIZA!!!!!

[@Myplop]

It’s Liza with a z not Lisa with an s cos Liza with a z goes........

[@lvelez1999]

Rip dear Judy. I truly hope that you didnt hurt the cat if u kicked her. Love you so much

[@sarakat76]

she cooked hahahaha funny... but also sad. I don't undestand all.... do you can write what he said about Liza? thanx very much

[@dxmxo9427]

Judy should have retired in the 1960s to a country house and maybe she would have found happiness,why did she stay in the spotlight let the media and people hound her :( the pressure of fame took her life SADLY

[@karenspencer5805]

Dima bv....money

[@ImTash]

She was up to her eyeballs in debt from hiring people who robbed her blind so had to work to put food in her kids bellies. I think if she had a choice she would have still worked but only when she felt like it rather than the gruelling tours she was signed up for

[@jsf1212]

The questions about her weight….SMH

[@elizajayne2888]

Judy garland may have had children... Mrs gumm did not ...
