"Ken Boxer Live," 1970s Teen Idol Leif Garrett is Guest, with Co-Host Tai Babilonia

[@susanslick3059]

I was sooo in love with Leif in the 70's spent all my babysitting money on Tiger Beat magazines and plastered my walls with his pictures. I am 54yrs old now and no longer in love but it seems to me that he turned out to be a really nice guy despite of the hard times that he has been through. Thanks for the memories Leif!😊

[@annweston2326]

Yeah thanks for the memories, they were good ones.💝

Leif was and is gorgeous I was bullied at school quite badly having Leifs music and tiger and teen beat got me through it to be honest thank you Leif love you hope you are keeping well in these strange times

[@43greengirl]

I can relate I was the samei had a horrible time at school and Leif helped so much

[@1970sGirl]

He's been asked these same questions a million times, but he was a good sport about it, here. These two, esp. Tai, are very annoying interviewers. He was the love of my life in the mid 70's !!! Best wishes to you, Leif.

[@cathybernard3325]

Marie Maria the two that was doing the interviewing were rude and annoying

[@annweston2326]

@@cathybernard3325 I agree.. They asked questions but didn't give him a chance to answer especially that Tai woman kept butting in and talking about her self.

[@annweston2326]

I agree with you Cathy and Marie That Tai woman should shut up and stop butting in and let Leif answer questions and just talk.

[@karenmallonee3867]

I have seen a few of these Ken Boxer Live shows and she just doesn't shut up! She makes the interview about her, it's so annoying... I'm glad it's not just me that feels that way.

Hi Elizabeth Anne my name is Ann Elizabeth and I agree with you. Loved him in Thrée for the Road when he was just a kid. He is 5 years older than me. Still like to look him up and see what he is up to these days.

[@writerforlifeify]

Where your spirit leads, Leif, there you must go. How strange that my sister is drawn to Santa Barbara & England but for me San Francisco & Paris are calling.

[@April_in_CT]

If I was Leif I would have taken that bell and tossed it across the studio. That was just annoying as hell! The whole interview was annoying. You can clearly see how stupid Leif thought some of those questions, and the delivery of them, were. But he made the most of it. And whatever he was or wasn't on, be it street or prescribed drugs, that's his business. Let he who is without sin cast the first stone...

[@annweston2326]

Well said April what was that bell for, kept ringing it for what reason? Annoying and annoying interviewers. Shut up, stop talking about yourselves and let Leif speak.

[@jasonsoutthere7733]

So Ken Boxer Live is an actual thing? Damn!

[@jasonsoutthere7733]

I LOVE IT!!!

[@annweston2326]

Ken Boxer can stick his bell where the sun don't shine. That bell was annoying and so was Tai. It wasn't about her but about Leif so she should shut up and let him speak even if he was a bit slurred and dopey.

I love Leif, but is he high here? The way he giggles all the time and doesn't finish his sentences

[@RealityAttacker]

He sure is. His lame excuse at the start about having a massage was an addict lying to try to cover up for being "relaxed"

[@scottmcman7659]

@@RealityAttacker - Yeah, it's pretty evident that he's done some weed that day. Probably everyday.

[@annweston2326]

And the interviewers kept butting in and didn't give him a chance to answer or finish what he was saying. What was the point in mentioning his sister didn't give him a chance to speak about her just to say what the photo was that they showed and it said that on the actual picture. That bell was annoying why did they keep pressing it, was it to stop him talking or to change the subject or what? Fancy saying his dad was just a sperm donor at the start of the interview. High as a kite looks like he needs his bed.

Watching several Leif Garrett interviews it comes across that he hasn't had much of an education. Often coming out with the phrase I can't stand 'you know'

[@elmobolan4274]

His eyes seem so sad and tired...

[@salvagemonster3612]

He sure got a lot taller.

[@Lori79Butterfly]

He’s obviously stoned in this taping! His bitterness about his dad is quite obvious. His story about his mom wanting to be an actress is very different from his memoir! He’s an alcoholic & drug addict here!

[@Monster_Mover_Stocks]

This couldn't have been recorded in 2014 since mention was made of David Cassidy's death when Cassidy died in 2017. Come on man...

[@boxervideos9]

The video was definitely recorded in 2014. You weren't listening closely enough. Leif Garrett was referring to Davy Jones' death, not to David Cassidy's. Jones had died a few years earlier in 2012. I can see how you confused the two since both names were mentioned at the same time and Davy and David sound alike. Go to time 13:40 and listen again. Thanks for your comment though.

[@lianelayman7577]

God he goes on a talk show in fip flops. He still looks like he's drugged out or something. Why is that stupid bell there? It's so sad but if you go on goggle it says he's only worth $1,000.
