Video of the Day: John Waters Is a Belieber

Share:

We are eternally grateful to the folks at Prefix for alerting us to our patron saint John Waters’s incredible appearance on Craig Ferguson last night. The entire interview is gold: Waters gave us his suggestions for the Academy Awards (“Why isn’t Lil Wayne singing the Toy Story 3 song?”), lamented the “pubic hair generation gap,” and opined, “I’m for the rights of bad lesbian mothers.”

But perhaps Waters’s most shocking stance of the evening was this: “There’s no better movie than the Justin Bieber movie… He’s a child prodigy. He’s like Shirley Temple!” Well, they did pose for a wonderful photo together a few months ago. Also, he thought that when the Beliebers do their “heart thing” at his shows, “they meant their vagina. I was shocked because their mothers were doing it.” Watch both parts of the interview after the jump.
