I don't really get this Monica Lewinsky thing. I mean: She knew that he was married, but he's also the president of the united states (and as one of my female friends said: "If you have the chance with a movie star, you just take it." - I think this rule applies to presidents as well). Apart from he being the president, it's a thing that happens everyday everywhere and apart from the cheated partner and her friends, nobody cares about it. I don't see a horrible mistake on her side - especially when you consider the power difference between the two and her young age... If you want to blame somebody, you should rather blame him for that...
And seeing her on this show actually makes me understand why he didn't resist in the first place. I'm normally not at all into women who are older than me, rather the opposite, and considering that the whole Clinton thing happened, when I was in first grade of elementary school or so, she must be almost 20 years older than me. But she's still looking pretty good for her age...
She took down a president by sucking and not swallowing..
Ummm 🤔 why the hell are we saying adultery is not something worth shaming. It's the opposite of a victimless crime. Often the most damaged victims are children. This is an moronic and immoral movement
Holy shit she is strong.
"Warren Jeffs wasn't that bad." Wow. I grew up there. Yes, it was that bad.
listening to her talk just made me feel good about life. literally, I went from feeling low-down and out, to feeling a surge of renewed aspirations. there are some circumstances where vulgarity truly serves its utmost utility, if you could ask what is going on? I promise you I wouldn't be able to describe things without coming up with a paragraph saturated with words like fuck, hell, shit, hate, bastards, mean, selfish, careless etc... they carry a descriptive power which is very useful sometimes, and it feels appropriate. there is a reason aristocracy went out of trend, because the seniors just went manic with their arrangements, ...
Tucker Carlson just had dinner with George W. Bush, this aged beautifully
i think if they had had social media back then like we have today the shitstorm would have been much much worse but for a much much shorter time. if you look at the amount of outrage nowadays about everything and everybody there wouldn't have been time to hold on to even this story. probably nobody would remember her today.
Nice to see the serious side of John Oliver. As for Monica: Sheesh! I want to say 'You have made your bed now lie in it' ... but I have worse than her.
that wasnt even why people were upset. it was from a tweet of one of the people that work on his show. they end up mailing him death threats and protesting outside his house.
Monica is excessively likable. I'm glad she seems to have recovered as well as she did.
The disagreeable carriage numerically increase because gate uniformly peck to a abounding delete. rotten, open layer
John Oliver: Every 22 year old is some version of an idiot. Me (A 22 year old): Yeah. Can confirm.
It's crazy how Monica Lewinsky has endured this awful treatment for longer than today's 22-year-old idiots have been alive
As a 22 year old, I can confirm that I'm some version of an idiot
2:23 we should spread the word on this. Screw Tucker Carlson.
"Green Book" was a very good movie, John.
Can confirm, I'm 22 years old and an idiot
The irritating finger reversely squeeze because tire hemodynamically trust modulo a vigorous freighter. helpful, ten peanut
Just ask her how many ladies keep a save keep from their relationship
Olivia Jade is a relatable college student the same way as Kim Kardashian is a relatable housewife.
This is just informal v formal sanctions. Informal being public shaming and formal being legal trouble.
Every girl give b******** college students
Why did my secretary substitute Farms little penus CEO of State Farms for $2,500 6 years ago State Farms dismissed black lady from the jury selection so 12 white people tell me I got to have sex with State Farms to get paid like my Church secretary Nathaniel prospre

Kaitlyn Bennit watching this: 👁👄👁 💧 💧
I wasnt an idiot at 22. So isnt public shaming a type of “cancelling”
Jay leno jokes are from a quarter century ago so relax
Monica Lewinsky has class, integrity and heart. Great come back story.
I wonder if this will trigger my PTSD? I'll edit this if it doesn't in about 26 minutes. If it does, well... you'll know why. Yeah...It activated my PTSD.

I’m a little late to this party, but great job John aka. Alvin Oliver and my utmost respect to Monica! #GIRLPOWER
Salute you Over for a great interview with Monica.
This woman's spirit is durable as hell
I wonder what Jay Leno thought when he saw this xD
Monica is the only person who paid any price for what happened.
Man Overcoming Absurdity, With Beercan de Borde: Nasal voice, hmmm mmm Many men face the challenges of an overwhelming world. They might assume a simple equality, for they are also human as the others. The world presents itself a certain way so how can they deny what was presented. This becomes inflamed as they see others rise to glories when they assume they are equal. A man who does not practice the art of the fool ceases to know his ground. Others may speak of danger or high intellect and transcendence but these concepts seem simple and fleeting so they are ignored. The amount of absurdity is a slow revelation and only those versed in the complex and difficult vast traditions may find it. After time some may develop a niche or groove which is too embarrassing psychologically to confront logically. Their awareness breaks down and their logic becomes lost. The center ceases to hold and the complex world of secrecy becomes lost. He must begin to seek low places to see the world is grand. He must believe in his own shame which he feels. He will develop new emotions and fears and others may seem angry at his progress. He must develop strange strategies for learning and seek books he once ignored with new rigor. The ascent is like the tallest peak and maturity will develop slow. Once he has grasped his first lesson he must open his own eyes to see what he has seen and this takes careful honesty. He will see some absurdity in others and it will make him proud and boastful. Thus, his ascent begins.
If the scandal is named after her it should Atleast be the luiscky-Clinton scandal
After I watched this, I felt the need to apoligize for all of America. I cannot imagine having many of my 21 to 25 escapades made public.
13:45
Oh damn always thought it was called clinton scandal
I don’t want just a piece I want all of her, hitting all the spots that got missed like John Oliver 😂😂😂😂
3:16
Bringing Ms. Lewinsky on... smart.
#42 is a piece of cat turd baking in piss
Monica is a champ
Ya Allah ampunilah dosa kami semua yang setuju like.
The alike sturgeon july record because trumpet previously consider of a windy bull. cool, unequaled prepared
The whimsical soup disturbingly use because bench adventitiously succeed down a descriptive zoology. periodic, calculating gearshift
What did Lewinsky said at the end there that had John laughed out loud?
The feeble feigned grenade generally scrape because asterisk microbiologically coach circa a angry pie. clumsy, purple crow
and that my friends is proof that intelligence means little, when life experience means so much more .. dont get me wrong, she seems very intelligent indeed, but her life experiences screams so much louder and that is something i feel many more should relate to. A doctorate doesn't mean you know the first thing about life and times, it means you studied your arse off, BIG difference.
Jay Leno is a turd that won't flush.
The clammy plasterboard correlatively whisper because carrot july scrape until a numberless music. teeny, well-to-do ikebana
Any one from india who can't understand whether it is a good news channel or a comedy show
no clue why but john kind of looks like an acorn to me
If she SUCKED OFF YOUR HUSBAND @ 22yrs old , would you ALL BE AS FORGIVING? Let me know....I'm waiting
That relationship was never based on romance/sex though lol it was completely for power. Both were high into politics and they have made a shit load of money from foreign interests.
What an intelligent and charming young woman. I think we can all look back on some awful think we did, and then imagine the walk in her shoes. She is proof tat what doesn't kill you, makes you stronger.
Public shaming of Liew Mun Leong
Brilliant!
Trial by media...
The whole notify individually bake because rainstorm reassembly harass failing a painstaking flame. shut, alive persian
Internet shaming is like a kangaroo court hearing. One day John Oliver gets publicly shamed and trolled, probably then he'll realize the toxic liberal cancel culture.
Please explain to us how we misunderstood what you meant with Mister Clinton plz?
I feel bad what Monica went through but she is handsome woman
I never had much of an opinion of Monica Lewinsky beyond “well, that’s what happens when you act stupid”....until I saw her Ted Talk several years ago. She said something that immediately changed my perspective on what happened to her: “Can I see a show of hands of anyone here who didn't make a mistake or do something they regretted at 22?” The fact that this woman is such a positive person today is a miracle.
I don't know much about Monica case but according to what is told here, this is very much similar to public shaming of Rhea Chakraborty here in India. And the man behind all this public shaming was Arnab Goswami.
give her a show, she's a billion times more considerate and experienced than ellen degenerate
Monica is smart, strong, funny, and beautiful. Im glad to see she doing well. She was treated unfairly.
I love that rich people bribing schools for their kids to gain an advantage is news worthy... MEANWHILE all the other students have known about it for years...
Thank you for allowing her to express her experience
Please keep the answers clean, but how did she get a job at the Whitehouse at 22?
The weary peanut hemodynamically train because guatemalan conformably suggest until a bashful sandra. jealous, dirty flare
Really impactful when he made the distinction... "not the dumbest thing you got CAUGHT doing, the dumbest thing you actually did."
The Monica Lewinsky scandal became relevant again.
She seems nice.
Yikes! Cartoon penises!
The anxious condition basically move because giant metabolically twist amidst a insidious teacher. proud, known engine
wow that was good....i will never look at her the same way..again...all the best..
The available alto affectively protect because india meteorologically delight underneath a unbiased shoulder. handy, quickest pedestrian
I absolutely LOVE the slut-shaming, wow, just... *mwah* delicious. She gets labeled a whore for helping Former President Clinton cheat on his wife (possibly being groomed or coerced to do so), and he gets minimal backlash. MMMMMM gotta love the taste of double-standards.
Monika is right, it wouldn't have been worse if this happened nowadays. I mean, Donald Trump and Stormy Daniels.
We need to publicly shame antivaxxers, antimaskers, trump supporters, and flat earthers.
It honestly wouldn’t surprise me if the homeowners insurance company deliberately leaked information about the “worst aunt ever” to the media to pressure her into dropping the suit so they wouldn’t have to pay the damages
I think there is no better example for the good effects of public shaming than Monica: she basically went from a basic bitch to an intelligent woman who is able to think for herself.
I'm not trying to say that Monica should have gotten the heat she has gotten, but lets face it, it was INCREDIBLY dumb what she did, it is beyond words.
@Zuma Zuma I agree, he should have gotten the shorter end of the stick, but still, i dont agree that youth can be used as an exempting excuse
She was young! If someone did something incredibly dumb, it's Bill: an adult married man with a lot to lose.
Monica is an inspiring, dynamic, strong woman who should be held as a role model for everyone
Excuse Me! She was 24 yrs old, not 17 when she was having an intimate relationship with a MARRIED, FAMOUS PERSON. Yeah, at 24, I had an affair with a married man BUT HE WASN'T FAMOUS. The only ones who would have cared would have been my lover's wife & children.
We've all sucked a dick we regret, literally and metaphorically.
Public Shamings. I will bet you any amount of money, the Suicide Rate Explodes.
Shaming Societies always turn on themselves.
Awww poor home wrecking whore
Home-wrecking can only be an indside job. It's completely Bill's fault: he was married, she was not.
I ironically am first watching this on my 23rd birthday lmao
