Pat Benatar and Neil Giraldo recently sat down for The Big Interview with Dan Rather to explain the story of their first meeting and subsequent 35 year relationship. Giraldo says things got off to a bumpy start when he realized he’d be auditioning for a woman. “How is this gonna work out?’ You know, I love women. This is gonna be tough, difficult.” “You have to understand,” adds Benatar. “Now, I have a record deal, and I’m, like, a little cocky. He’s playing with Rick Derringer, but he doesn’t have a record deal.” “I hear him say he didn’t bring a guitar, and I’m thinking, ‘Oh my God,'” she continues. “What an ass. He comes here, he’s, like, coming for a meeting. Doesn’t he think I want to hear him play? He doesn’t even bring his axe? So I turn around ready to just [glare at] him, and then I see him, and I’m just, like, [sharp intake of breath].” The Big Interview with Dan Rather airs on July 21 at 8 p.m. EST on AXS TV.
