Revisited: My Interview with Lily Tomlin

The Wit, The Wisdom, The Wonderful Lily Tomlin

Lily Tomlin is more than a legend in the Entertainment business. She is living proof that with talent and perseverance, a long and successful career is not only possible but it’s inevitable. Comedian, actress, writer, producer, recording artist, activist, multiple award winner; there is nothing Tomlin can’t do. Many of us remember first seeing her in the 60’s show Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In. Her cast of characters is still as relevant today as they were then. Like us, they have changed with the times, matured (except for Edith Ann, she’s still 5 ½ years old), and developed a wisdom and insight that comes with age and time, much like Tomlin herself. Her films have also spanned the spectrum in regards to comedy vs. drama and the varied women she has played. Comedy classics “9 To 5,” “All Of Me,” and “The Incredible Shrinking Woman,”; dramas “Nashville,” (in which she made her film debut in 1975 and was nominated for an Academy Award), “A Prairie Home Companion,” “Tea With Mussolini,” and “Moment By Moment.” First appearing on Broadway in 1977 her one-woman shows have also been memorable and that of which a legend is made. “The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe,” was made into a feature film in 1991. She has made guest appearances in such critically acclaimed television shows as “Murphy Brown,” “Will & Grace,” “The West Wing,” and “Damages.” Her latest endeavor on the small screen now filming is “Malibu Country,” with Reba McEntire. At age 72 she is once again embarking on the road with a few scheduled stops with her one-woman show. She was called by Time Magazine “the woman with the kaleidoscope face.” There is no doubt she has been an inspiration to hundreds of comedians who have followed after her. A civil and gay rights activist she has been with her life partner Jane Wagner for over 40 years; a personal accomplishment almost unheard of not only in the Entertainment industry but the real world as well. Lily Tomlin is truly an artist in every sense of the word and a woman for all seasons.

May 6, 2012 is South Florida’s time in the sun with Ms. Tomlin; but on this day I had the distinct pleasure of speaking with her one on one. I found her to be extremely personable, funny, thought provoking, and completely in tune with the world we all share. This certainly isn’t the fluff piece I was expecting to write and you may be expecting to read. She was open, willing, and able to talk about everything under the sun, I felt as if I were catching up with an old friend.

Tina Mrazik: Hi, how are you? Lily Tomlin: I’m good. Okay so, I’m coming to Miami. TM: Yes, to the Adrienne Arsht Center on May. 6th. How many dates are on your current tour? LT: I do dates every year, I don’t do a tour. I do what I can do in between other stuff. I think there’s an advantage there. Last week, I would have had to move a bunch of dates. TM: Has "Malibu Country" been picked up for the season? LT: No, I don’t know if it’s been picked up yet or not. We shot it on Tuesday night, a week ago.

TM: How did you get the role starring alongside Reba McEntire in the upcoming ABC TV comedy “Malibu Country”? LT: They had that part and asked me to do it. I know Reba and I like Reba. It was a funny script so I agreed to it. I think it went pretty well. TM: Do you enjoy working again network television? LT: Oh yeah, I like to do a bit of it all. I’ve done a lot of TV this past year. TM: Indeed, you’ve made several appearances on TV including Damages, in which you earned an Emmy nomination for Outstanding Guest Actress for your role as Marilyn Tobin. LT: Yes, I did. Web Therapy starts airing on Showtime in July. TM: You’ve also participated in several projects for cable networks including HBO and Showtime. Do you find there’s a lot more freedom on cable verses commercial network? LT: Of course there is, absolutely. You get to step out a bit. And I like all of them. As long as the material is interesting, something exciting to play. I especially love Web Therapy and I did Eastbound and Down too. I had a lot of fun doing that. You know what show Eastbound? TM: Yes, it’s a very funny show. LT: I loved playing Danny McBride’s character, Tammy Powers. It all has a different kind of feel to it. And Reba’s show too. This pilot was interesting too. They let me name the character after my own mother. So I named her Lily May and that was sort of the attraction too. TM: There are many women of this generation that are working in comedy. With the material they’re doing and the way they’re presenting it, do you think women are finally able to keep up with the boys when it comes to edgy material. LT: Yeah, I think there is that youth audience. Yeah, I do. I think it’s expected. Just like on cable, the language is expected too. The sensibility, just being more ostentatious. TM: Do you believe this evolution in popular culture is going in more positive or negative direction? LT: Well, I don’t know. I think the culture has a tendency to become a little coarser in general. Maybe it’s good though. Maybe it’s flattened boundaries. It all depends on how it’s used. I remember on Deadwood, the show on HBO, they said ‘c***sucker’ about every other word. Then they had that woman, that nice woman in the first season that she was sort of gentile and became kind of rough. Her husband, I can’t remember the exact, I didn’t watch it every week. I hardly have time to watch anything every week including myself. She was sort of a gentle woman you know. Educated or married or something; and then she sat out awhile and then she (laughing) began out talking the guy who ran the saloon or whatever he did. But yeah, I wonder all the people talking; probably they used a lot language at that time. You know on Laugh-In we had The Flying Fickle Finger of Fate and the Farkel Family. Everybody was always trying to push the barriers. TM: With Laugh-In there was more innuendo, now everything is in your face. LT: As I recall you couldn’t even say the word ‘ass.’ I remember I was an usher at the movies, movie house. The first movie that ever used the word ‘virgin’ on screen was a big deal. TM: Do you think in some instances, we've become too politically correct when news anchors and TV personalities are having to apologize because they offended certain groups of people with words that most Americans hear everyday? LT: Well some of those just happened recently. It’s part of their vocabulary now. If you do it what’s the point of apologizing you should just own it. But I guess people, the group that’s offended, I don’t know, I’d have to be in their shoes. It does seem a little over the top but it came from a desire to change the vocabulary and the culture, you know? Like calling women employees ‘girls’; "my girl". "My girl will call your girl." Stuff like that- that’s the feminist era. But I remember concepts that were accepted, you know. Even myself, I had begun working on a character and the result was an old person. I had a line in there that goes back to the very earliest 70’s. And I had a line in it which became really foolish; the character was supposed to be like an old woman, 90 years old and she’s saying, “Drop kick those grandbabies up against a wall.” And it seemed funny to me at the time but it was a stupid thing to say. So that kind of stuff when you first hear it, and yet you can do it, the pendulum swings the other way gets deeper and heavier. Because behavior is sometimes imitated is just like children grow up in a white supremacist group. They’re totally programmed to be racist and hateful. They know nothing else. They just repeat the language. So I don’t know where it stops and where it starts. I would be the last one to try and censor someone. And when you judge something, the idea of not apologizing is just immature. I don’t know anyone who’s had to do it besides Tracy (Morgan). Do newscasters do it a lot, commentators? I doubt anybody at Fox does it. TM: Sometimes I think they go a little bit overboard as far as apologizing. Perhaps America has become too sensitive. I remember when we used to be a lot tougher. LT: I think a lot of stuff is accepted, really. There was a time when a certain amount of hatred, not even hatred, I don’t even want to use the word. But you had people thinking Jews or blacks or whatever. Women, gay people, whatever - they’re just going to have an attack mode for those people. They don’t want to have to hear them, hear about them. I think there are a lot of weird points of view in the world. I mean look, I grew up in Detroit, the inner city in a black neighborhood. My mother and dad are both Southern, I went to Kentucky every summer on the farm. I lived in an old apartment house; I grew up with all kinds of people. And I’ve been exposed to a lot of different human beings and weren’t so different. They may appear different on the surface. So again you have to have respect for other people’s feelings, you just do. But if you’re not stupid and somewhat educated or sensitive or have a feeling, then you have room for other people too. To say we’re too sensitive you’re talking about which group is offended; me, I don’t know. I really don’t know where to draw the line. You have to draw it on your own sensibility. TM: You’ve been with Jane (Wagner) for over 40 years, correct? LT: 41. TM: Congratulations. LT: Thank you. She thanks you too. (Laughing) TM: Is she there? LT: No, no. She doesn’t go on the road with me. I love to perform a certain number of dates a year so she doesn’t go out too often. TM: In my opinion, Hollywood is doing something that I’m not really crazy about. They’re doing too many remakes of classic films or turning TV shows into movies. From your and Jane’s perspective as writers, is there a lack of originality in Hollywood? LT. Well, we’ve talked about it sometimes just because we, yeah that has come up with us, you’re right. The idea of remaking something and not doing something that’s original or not perusing something that’s original; we do comment on that. But I can’t say we’ve started a movement in the organization; down with remakes. TM: They’ve put “9 to 5” on Broadway. LT. That’s right, they’ve done that. “ TM: How would you feel about a remake of “9 To 5”? What if it was completely different than the original? Like what if it was remade into a raunchy sort of “American Pie”-type comedy, would that bother you? LT: Well, it wouldn’t bother me, I mean gosh, what bothers me is if we get into a nuclear war. I’d be disappointed probably for a minute the fact that they would do that but I wouldn’t dwell on it. There was the intention of Jane, Dolly and me to do a sequel to it, not a remake but a sequel. And a sequel might have worked closer to the time the original appeared but nothing ever worked out; no script was ever acceptable all around the block. And I know Jada Pinkett Smith had the rights and was going to do an African American version. Now what form that would have taken I don’t know. If it would have been a redo of the original or a completely different invention. I just don’t know. I mean I heard that Queen Latifah was going to redo “All of Me.” So I don’t quite know what it means. Or how far they’d go or don’t go or how far they’d corrupt it. I would see it. Maybe if I were the producer or the director had written “9 to 5” maybe I’d feel more possessive. In the musical they used the actors to look and move just like us from the stage. Even Mr. Hart looked like Dabney; I can’t remember the actor’s name. He was good in the musical. Allison (Janney) looks enough like me from the stage. I mean she’s tall and lankly. Meg Hilty is very stocked and big busted like Dolly (Parton) and a little blonde you know. And then the Jane (Fonda) character, anyway, they were enough like us; in a sense it looked like the movie. For us at that time, I don’t know about Fonda because she produced it originally but all of us felt it looked kind of eerie, surreal. The three of us went to the opening because of Dolly in LA and New York. And sitting there watching those three people (laughing) and they were sitting there almost, because Pat Resnick wrote the book for the musical, and she had written the screenplay. She took very much from herself and the original, even the costumes were similar to what Ann Roth had designed in the movie. And anyway, so that’s the effect it had on me at the time. It was kind of surreal. And I wasn’t sure it was live, maybe it was us up there. (Laughing) TM: Now that you have my number will you give it to Cher? LT: If I run into her I will. (Laughing) Oh, my gosh, you’d get a kick out of her. TM: I’ve actually met her. LT: Yes, she fun and interesting. TM: This is one of the great things about meeting people in the entertainment business and getting to talk to you. Everyone that I’ve met has basically been very down to earth. When I can go on record and say that I made Cher, Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin laugh, that’s pretty good. LT: Okay, (laughing) maybe we should do “9 To 5”? Bette, Cher and I - they’re 24/7...

The Ultimate Guide to Marilyn Monroe's Style

Some like it hot!

We've been breaking down our list of 16 classic fashion icons everyone should know. Last week, we covered Diana Ross, the reigning queen of Motown and 1960s trendsetter.

This week, it's all about cinema's brightest star, Marilyn Monroe.

View the original article to see embedded media.

Tomorrow, August 5, marks 56 years since we've lost the famous “blonde bombshell.” But with every passing year, her image grows more and more beloved.

Marilyn's blonde hair, red lips, and beauty mark have made lasting style impressions on us all, but in the 1950s, she was known for being the biggest sex symbol of the era.

Her life has been written about and re-imagined countless times, like in the Oscar nominated My Week with Marilyn, or the ill-fated but still adored (especially by yours truly) TV series Smash. But there are a lot of sides to Marilyn you probably don't know about. Keep reading to find out more about her early life, film career, tragic death, and lasting legacy.

All About Marilyn

Fade In On a Girl...

View the original article to see embedded media.

Marilyn Monroe was born Norma Jeane Mortenson in Los Angeles, California in 1926. Her father was absent, and her mother suffered from paranoid schizophrenia, spending much of her life in institutions.

Marilyn spent her childhood in and out of various foster homes and orphanages. (TW) During this time she was sexually abused.

When her last foster family wanted to move out of California, laws prohibited them from taking then Norma Jeane with them. Their solution was to have the 16 year old marry Jim Dougherty, the neighbors' son, so she wouldn't go to an orphanage.

Gentlemen Prefer Marilyn

View the original article to see embedded media.

Dougherty was a marine and had to leave Norma Jeane behind for a while. Around this time, she was working at a factory and was discovered by a photographer to shoot pin-up style photos for the troops. (Fun fact: Marilyn always supported the armed forces and would go on to interrupt her honeymoon to perform in Korea, where the troops adored her.)

By the late 1940s, Norma Jeane had dyed her brown hair lighter and began a modeling and film career. She landed a contract with 20-Century Fox and chose the stage name Marilyn Monroe.

I never wanted to be Marilyn--it just happened. Marilyn's like a veil I wear over Norma Jeane. - Marilyn Monroe

It only took a few years for Marilyn to become a world-wide sensation. But she was typecast and sexualized in films as a the “girl next door” or the “dumb blonde." She often felt limited. She was devoted to the craft and trained in acting, hoping to play different roles.

There's No Business Like Show Business

View the original article to see embedded media.

Marilyn had a bad reputation on movie sets. She suffered anxiety, stage fright, and low self-esteem (among rumored other issues relating to her childhood traumas).

To cope with this, she took dangerous combinations of drugs and alcohol. As a result, she often showed up late, forgot her lines, and could take hours to film a simple one-line scene.

But in the 1950s, people weren't understanding of her mental health issues, and the executives and men on set were cruel to Marilyn. She became co-dependent on her acting coach and friend Paula Strasberg, much to the dismay of her directors.

View the original article to see embedded media.

Many biographers question Strasberg's influence, as she wanted Monroe to be a method actor; and though she encouraged Marilyn to go to psychoanalysis, she wanted her to use her traumas for acting.

I've spent most of my life running away from myself. - Marilyn Monroe

As she rose to fame with films like Niagara and How To Marry A Millionaire, Marilyn's personal life became a hot topic in the press. She married Joe DiMaggio in a passionate but doomed relationship which lasted just nine months. (After Marilyn passed, Joe continued to send flowers to her grave every week for twenty years.)

"We are all of us stars, and we deserve to twinkle."

View the original article to see embedded media.

Tired of being underestimated, in 1955 Marilyn founded her own production company (the first woman to do so!) and partnered with Fox under a new contract that would let her pick her own movies, directors, and cinematographers.

She was a women's and civil rights activist, too. She notably helped Ella Fitzgerald get a break by demanding she play a famous venue and attending every show front row.

I don't want to make money. I just want to be wonderful. - Marilyn Monroe

Marilyn remarried to a playwright named Arthur Miller in 1956 and her career kept growing, but her personal health declined. Arguably her most famous and acclaimed film, Some Like It Hot, is also recognized for her famous bad behavior on set.

View the original article to see embedded media.

In 1961, Marilyn divorced again, and in 1962 began working on her final film Something's Got To Give. But by then, she was severely dependent on substances and struggling with depression and other physical health issues.

Fame will go by, and, so long, I've had you fame. If it goes by, I've always known it was fickle. So at least it's something I experienced, but that's not where I live. - Marilyn Monroe

Something's Got To Give had to pause production to allow Marilyn time to heal, but the movie was never finished. Marilyn Monroe died in 1962 of a drug overdose.

View the original article to see embedded media.

Today, she is still a symbol of style, beauty, and sex. But fans, critics, and biographers' attitudes have shifted towards her infamous behaviors. She's no longer seen as a wild party girl, and instead her personal traumas, mental instabilities, and dedication to her work despite it all are respected and championed.

Marilyn was a feminist and an artist. She demanded rights over her own career in a time when movie contracts exploited actors, and was a talented actress, who managed to sparkle and brighten up every second of screen time even in her darkest personal hours.

Fashion Inspired by Marilyn Monroe

View the original article to see embedded media.

Marilyn's fashion is constantly imitated, usually with hot pink gloves or flowy white dresses, but I'll let you know now that we'll be taking a different approach. Yes, Marilyn was always in full-glam at press events, rocking the most stunning and expensive designer dresses you could imagine. But she worked closely with photographers to capture a different, more human side of herself.

Keeping it Casual

View the original article to see embedded media.

Marilyn loved being photographed reading, as it was a major hobby of hers. And when not in costume or red-carpet attire, she sported a smart-casual style that was very trendy in the '50s.

View the original article to see embedded media.

Products: Top - Boohoo, Bag - The Gap, Shoes - DSW, Shorts - Urban Outfitters

A turtleneck with short sleeves is total casual Marilyn, as is pairing that with high-waisted shorts. For a little bit of fun, get patterned shorts like stripes or houndstooth, which Marilyn has been photographed in before. Her daytime looks blended cute and sophisticated pieces into an original aesthetic.

Cutting Edge Color

View the original article to see embedded media.

Marilyn loved color and could pull off a floor-length bright red dress or matching turquoise suit like no one else ever had or has since! Her extravagant personal style was so eye-catching because of her choice of figure-flattering shapes and bold, playful colors. Fun fact: Marilyn loved costume jewelry pieces and didn't like owning expensive ones.

Products: Romper - Forever 21, Blazer - Forever 21, Shoes - Old Navy, Bag - New York & Company

A more accessible way to add Marilyn's fun colors into your wardrobe is to choose one bold stand-out piece (like a jacket or jumpsuit) and keep everything else simple. Both on-screen and off, Marilyn mixed business-y, formal elements like blazers or button down shirts with playful and flirty elements, like low-cut tops or leggy bottoms. Choose your accent color and accessorize around it using the Marilyn method!

Let Me Be Your Star

View the original article to see embedded media.

Okay, I had to do something glamorous for our last look! Marilyn loved performing, and that included putting on a show for her fans when she was out in public and taking gorgeous photos for publications. Shiny, shimmery gowns were a go-to for her.

Products: Dress - Boohoo, Earrings - Belk, Shoes - DSW, Bag - Windsor, Lipstick - Ulta

A low-cut, body-con gown is a must for a Marilyn feel on a night out, as Ms. Monroe was always making headlines for her ultra-feminine looks. She enjoyed the attention and had fun playing with her sensuality in outfits, so strappy heels and red lipstick, two sensual staples, are also classic Marilyn elements.

Will you be channeling your inner Marilyn?

Marilyn was a fashionista, and even over 50 years after her passing, we still look to her for style guidance! Her beauty and fashion won't ever be forgotten, but we'll remember her perseverance, dedication, and talent forever, too.
