LIly is a NATIONAL TREASURE 👍🥰🤩

I have watched (and loved) Lily Tomlin ever since I saw her on Laugh-in. Her telephone operator always had me in stitches. "One ringy-dingy, two ringy-dingy... giggle, snort." In my opinion, she, as much as many of her contemporaries, deserves a special Oscar for lifetime achievement because of how much she has changed every venue she's ever appeared in. She will always be a guiding light to those who just want to be themselves and excel.

I was fortunate to watch Lily's performance with the All Nurse Band on SNL. I haven't found it since then. She sang a torch song draped on the piano. Gorgeous performance

Lily and the All-Nurse Band performed "St James Infirmary". I can't find any video clip of the number, but someone posted the audio on YT. Search for "Lily Tomlin SNL St James Infirmary". There might be a video clip of it on some SNL collection. It was in 1975, the first season.

I love that she put her talents above everything else. Her private life is no one's business. As a public figure, she obviously wants people to appreciate her body of work and nothing else. Private life stays private.

I love Lilly Tomlin. Everyone loves Lilly Tomlin and I’ve never once heard a negative comment on Lilly Tomlin. She’s a role model for my 18 year old daughter!!!!

I love this woman ever since I saw her on Laugh In when I was a child. I love her in Grace and Frankie I am sad that that show it over. So sad two great Actresses had to come to end in a greta show of what life is really like, disfunctional families we have today.

I love Lily in everything she does. Her zest for life and love of laughter just permeate her performances! She brings out the poet in me. Bless you, gracious lady!

Lily Tomlin is genuine and genius. And while she makes me laugh so hard I want to pee, she has given me many bits of truth I love to pass on, such as "Why is it when we talk to God we're said to be praying, but when God talks to us we're schizophrenic?"

I've followed Lily's career from the beginning. She is truly one of a kind. One thing I didn't know was her relationship with Lorne Michaels. Thanks for putting together this gr8 piece.

I saw her on Broadway in The search for intelligent life in the universe when I was 20, no set or costumes just her, so funny she was brilliant, I went by myself as I was visiting friend’s in NY from Australia, so it was especially exciting for me having already been a fan of hers, but never thinking I would be able to see her live because Australia was a 25hr flight from Los Angeles then as we had to stop to refuel twice , Australia to New Zealand, then Hawaii then LA, on one trip back we even had to have an unscheduled stop in New Caledonia due to a head wind we needed more fuel to finish the last dash across the Pacific Ocean. Now you can do it direct. But I have loved her work ever since I first saw her in the 70’s.

3:12 is the scene that garnered the nomination, in my opinion. she didn't speak, she was observing a singer. but she conveyed amazing energy in that restraint. I have never seen another actress achieve a similar moment and I am an avid movie goer.

Lily Tomlin is a very great actress & comedian. I've always loved her.

I have loved her since 9 to 5. I was 11 when I first saw her and mam she just is incredible. Very happy she's had a happy life. And glad she and her wife can live their lives now in the open. Must have been so hard to hide her happiness because of prejudice. And yet through it all she never lost touch with what she does, who she is, and her creative genuis.

Have adored Lily since her Laugh-In days. Ernestine, Edith Ann, Susie Sorority and her various one-liners (dead-panned or the "excitable woman"!). Saw Search for Life while in development (in Philly) and she didn't need costumes or sets - she created them in your mind, with Wagner's writing & her stage presence. Heck, I even liked that silly movie with Midler "Big Business" - playing twins w/different personalities ain't easy! So much funny and mother wit over the decades. Brava!

She has a sparkle in her eye when she smiles that is so rare. Love her 💞

Lily Tomlin and Jane Wagner make such a beautiful couple, and together over 50 years that's incredible

Lily was nominated again in Grandma!! Lily is an amazing talent and beautiful human being!!

LOVE that woman. She's amazingly talented and a really good human being, as well. That's a rare combination in Hollywood.....especially the "really good human being" part. Most of 'em have sold their souls for fame. Not Lilly. Thank you Lilly!!!

She is so wonderful. This video didn't mention Big Business, in which she starred alongside Bette Midler. An absolutely wonderful performance by both of them. One of my faves when I need laughter. 💜

Thank you this was so eloquently respectfully admiringly done. I know if Lilly & Jane were to see your work of them they would be very honored. Lilly n Jane are a little older than I....we are close enough in age that We are the Women of That Era & how wonderful the world loves That Era. Many thanks loved every moment Bless You Who Made This Video & Sharing it w/Us

I've loved Lily since having a copy of "This is a Recording" sent to me from the States back when it was first recorded. She and her wife are just the best. Love to them both from Manchester UK xxx

I have loved Lilly Timlin since the 70s, and I was introduced to her through her SNL characters. She truly is the wonderful person I thought she was.

Don't care what her sexuality is,or anyone else's for that matter.She's brilliant.

I also loved her in the film called All of me, l think Lily fans will love it...l don't think it was mentioned here.

I LOVE HER ! Lilly was a staple in our home growing up as a hilarious comedian, Beautiful and warm memories of Good Times that Lilly was a part of, in a way she is " POETIC FAMILY "

Such a huge favorite of mine !! Funny funny funny

"If the formula for water is H2O, is the formula for ice cubes H20 Squared ? " funny woman

Women are always offended. There's jokes to actual insults at men all the time. She herself has made jokes about men, but it's okay to have double standards and hypocrisy when you're a women.

Nashville has never left my top 10 since it was released in '75 (huge Robert Altman fan), and I grew_up watching Edith-Anne and Ernestine ("one ringy-dingy") on Laugh-In! She has been part of my life's background-noise for most of my rides around the sun, and my life is better for it. I have both affection and admiration for her. May she live forever!! (well, until she starts to smell bad anyway).

Lily Tomlin's mother, Lillie Mae Tomlin, was from my hometown in Paducah, KY. Mother Tomlin was once made a Duchess of Paducah, Kentucky, and an honorary Kentucky Colonel in the 1980s. I've always, ALWAYS, loved anything Lily was in. Started watching her as a child when she was on Laugh-In (I still do "that's the truth, Pthbbpt"). And from small but endearing bit parts and walk-ons in The Player, NCIS and The X-Files to fabulous roles in All of Me, Grace and Frankie, 9 to 5 and the loveable Big Business...Not to mention her genius on kids shows...she's made a name for herself as a beautifully strong, independent woman. And I pray that her star is nowhere near its zenith. Shine on, Lady... shine on!

She’s a wonderful lady! Excellent actress and better human being!!!❤️

Lilly and Jane are such a sweet couple. It`s crazy to think that they had to keep it a secret even if it was an open secret, coming out was still a risk for too long.

Lily was beyond awesome as Violet Newstead in 9 to 5. I have always felt that Dolly Parton and Jane Fonda played the supporting roles.

In these clips, Travolta & lily both look alike!!!

I can guarantee you this: If a woman was sitting there and cracked a joke that her husband was her favorite pet, it would have gotten a massive laugh. She would even go on to say how she'd never break up with him because she couldn't be bothered to TRAIN A NEW ONE. Those jokes are still made today.

I was in Vick and Bills in Knoxville, I looked up and saw Lily and Jane. Our host introduced us, and I will never be the same, my favorite star on earth ordered a ribeye sandwich and went out the back . what a wonderful night. they were genuine and charming.

Loved "Big Business" movie with Bette Midler -- hilarious! Grace & Frankie is phenomenal!

She definitely has talent. Seems like a sweetheart.

I love her!🙂❤

Love me some Lilly....went to the same high school (Denby) ...had an affair with the lighting director a friend of hers with the movie Nashville...shopped at JL Hudson's as she did as a child....saw her live in Nashville in her one woman show with my then lover who dumped me later... we have a whole history of six degrees... what an amazing talent...

9 to 5 is a classic, but I also loved her in All of Me and The Incredible Shrinking Woman! Grace and Frankie is amazing too...

I've always thought Lily Tomlin was one of the best actresses ever.

I have loved every thing she has been in. She is so fantastic from Laugh In to Grace and Frankie. I have loved her all this time. I love her smile her beingness...she is just such a wonderful person. I wish she could have come out but she had her reasons. So good she had such a great relationship all these years with her wife. She is a writer..perfect match!

Oh my gosh! One of my favorite earliest memories of her - doing character “Edith Ann”!!!!….. 5 1/2 yrs old”! Hahahaha! Ive always loved her individuality to characters she plays- and her unique way of making you laugh- even if you dont want to! She hits home w everyone in a way!

I love Lily,a great and funny actress 🌹

Absolutely love Lily! ❤️

Travolta ! was gorgeous.

At the 1st interview this man also said "she owns me too" refering to his wife and then read a poem about them titled "2lovers"

I only clicked on this story because I saw John Travolta next to this woman! VERY misleading to say the least.

An absolute queen!

I first saw her in the movie The Incredible Shrinking Woman Love that movie😍

I liked Moment by Moment. I've always heard her talk about Jane & now I finally see her face. I love Lily & her characters she reminds me of Whoopi in that way. I love how her & Jane stick up for their beliefs.

This is hands down my favorite comedian/actor of all time. 💕

True LEGEND in my eyes. Love her she’s amazing. From Russia

I loved “moment by moment”

I think Lily Tomlinson is amazing. I saw her live in Denver for.her one woman show. I think she takes things to serious, as in clip with Cavett.

I watched that episode,! Holey f#@k I'm old🤣

Regarding "Moment by Moment," I wrote a screenplay that Travolta wanted to do and gave to his managers, Lemonde-Zeter; they in turn gave my script to The Stigwood Organization who turned it down, choosing instead the disaster that became "Moment by Moment." There was no sexual chemistry between the two gay leads. No wonder this "love story" was a huge flop.
