Klonopin is bad for you

Personally I think she's pretty funny here - I think she mostly just has no respect - at all - for the interviewer.

The interviewer was like, "Do you think it's ridiculous?" and I was watching that and going, c'mon Stevie say it, SAY it, SAAAAAY IIIIIIITT -

"I think YOU'RE ridiculous!"

bugger - she showed some self-restraint there.

LOL, she's hysterical; she was more than simply annoyed by the interviewer, she looked as if she was going to sucker punch that beyotch. How rude was it when that woman corrected Stevie? "Inobtrusive" Stevie said, only to be corrected by the lady in the shadows, "Unobtrusive"....and Stevie just looked over and said "yeah", which I took to be more of a "stfu." Clearly, Stevie was not happy about being asked in the end to say those various lines, and you've got to love how at the end of each sentence, she never smiled and looked right at the camera with that evil look that would turn anyone to stone. While I thought it was a funny interview, it is sad though, you can tell she didn't want to be there and she obviously was not well.

I especially like the very end...the look she's giving someone off to the side is priceless, and she pumps her little fists like she wants to punch that girl! hehe

You know, I commented on her behaviour towards the interviewer and the interview itself (her 'I'd rather be anywhere else than here talking to you, bitch' behaviour) some time ago, when I think it was David who pointed out that this particular woman (I forgot her name) had interviewed Stevie before and they always seemed to have a good repertoire going on between the two of them. So, really, it had to have been the pills, because come on.

I love this interview only because it gives us great insight into what Stevie was like during that particular time in her life, and I happen to love Stevie through the good and the bad, so it's all good. I can laugh at her, because I also always laugh with her. I'm sure if she saw herself talking about buying a guitar that belonged to Benjamin Franklin, she'd laugh too.

Dude, she really is too much. She's so deadpan that it is scary. I would not have wanted to be that interviewer. Although if the interviewer had a pinch of warmth and/or charm...

I have this old compilation video tape that I received in a trade many, many years ago that contained what I consider to be the absolute zenith of Stevie's Klono-haze. There was this one interview clip where she was really bloated, depressed and totally zonked out- to the point where she had that freaky lazy eye thing going on- just think of Marty Feldman wearing a sequined pirate hat I think it was a Timespace promo. It made her seem downright animated in the MTV interview by comparison. Then there is this other really bizarre television clip in which she is on stage in some nightclub playing in an all-star band fronted by Michael Bolton . While Bolton was caterwauling "Georgia," off to the side in the background was Stevie- bloated, white as a ghost, in a catatonic state, gently tapping a tambourine (slightly off-rhythm) like Tracey Partridge. Is anyone familiar with this clip?

This is quite an oddity. The interviewer is such a disinterested, flatline douchebag. It's unreal. Even in her Klonopin haze, though, Stevie is hilarious. Particular irony - talking about being sober while prescription tranq'd into absolute oblivion.
