Popping Culture: Liberace speaks from beyond the grave

PBS’s Blank on Blank is a charming series of animated vignettes inspired by previously unheard interviews with celebrities talking on a range of topics. Some of the best in the series include Kurt Cobain on why he identified with gays, and Janis Joplin on rejection.

But the most recent in the series is an interview with one of the most flamboyant performers of the 20th century, Liberace. Take a peek at this video, where the interviewer asks him about his famous costumed performances and why he does things the way he does.
