20/20 Interview [Archive]

In 2001, the American television news program 20/20 broadcasted a 10-minute profile of Stevie Nicks. The interview footage was taped a few months prior, around the beginning of her TISL tour, June perhaps. There was some very interesting footage of backstage preparations and nervous pre-show butterflies, as I recall. Also, I remember footage of her walking onstage, from the wings, to the band's playing of Stop Draggin' My Heart Around*.
I had forgotten all about this interview, until just a few days ago. Then I tried to remember why I had forgotten it, since I remember it being very interesting - it was broadcast on Friday, September 7th, 2001, that's why. 4 days before the world changed.
If anyone has that interview, I'd love to see.

*I remember Stevie almost losing her footing as she trotted on stage with those silly sneakers of hers.

I remember that...it was a great segment, in fact. I wish I had it on tape.

I thought it was on Primetime Live rather than 20/20. The one I remember had Cynthia McFadden interviewing her. Is that the one? I remember it for saying that while in rehab for Klonopin, her hair turned grey and her skin molted. Memorable imagery.

Molted? Weird...

Sounds really interesting! (Not the molting, the rest of it)

Never mind. It was actually "20/20 Downtown", some spinoff of 20/20.

Hehe...thanks for posting! Good stuff...

Cynthia trips me out. She interviewed Liza Minnelli during her comback at the Palace in 1999 for "Minnelli on Minnelli"...and she did the EXACT same thing...went backstage with Liza RIGHT before she was to go on stage...and basically asked her the same kind of questions.

Two great things in the montage of old performance clips in part one:

1) doing her best drag queen imitation, strutting around with arms held up high
2) the samurai crouch

Thank you so much for posting this. It is my favorite interview from her. I just love all the backstage action, and watching the crowds response from backstage. This used to be on a tape that I had but I lost it (IT HAD EVERY TV STEVIE OR MAC RELATED THING FROM 01-03 ON IT GAHHHHH!!!)

Another question....Anyone know what that footage is from with her playing the tambie in the big white shawl?? Or her doing that pose with that black/blue shawl on?

That's a class interview! Well, the Stevie part anyway, not so sure about yer one... Anyway, really interesting. Didn't know she got so nervous! Poor Stevie! You'd think she'd get used to it...

I don't think it's something you ever get used to really!

And I think that it is a good sign when an artist gets a little 'scared' before heading on stage...the excitement of it all...gets you pumping and ready!!!

That was fun to re-watch. I wish Stevie was having all that newness and attention now. I remember how exciting it was to see her coming back and looking and sounding strong. I don't think that will happen again (the media attention, etc), unfortunately.

Thank you so much. I didn't even know about this. Looks like you are actually priestofsomething.
:D <=== bad joke smile.

Wait - when did Stevie have crippling self doubt? I guess the weight gain SA Klonopin time? I dunno if it was crippling...
God I love footage clips. More than life itself. I will marry them.
Oh, squee, I've never seen the Kristen Davis interview either. Stevie heaven, here I come.

I had the same problem. That 10 minute interview took 20 minutes and I was on a super fast 64 bit processor at work. Anyway, I got the jist of it.

You need a FLV media player to play them on your computer. I have no idea about burning them to DVD since I don't have a DVD burner. :)
