Woo, hoo! The Mutual Admiration Society Festival! Gotta watch and feel envy, y’all!
If you miss it this time there’ll be the Country Music Mutual Admiration Society event soon enough.
Is Dustin Hoffman going to receive a lifetime achievement award tonight for Tootsie, Kramer vs. Kramer, and Ishtar?
Will the Hollywood Reds mourn the passing of Shirley Temple Black?
Will there be any Ted Cruz jokes told tonight? Too hip for the room? How about Sarah Palin jokes?
If you want to boycott the Oscars but still watch 2 hours of celebrity back patting, horrible music revues, and Ford car commercials, tune into youtube for the Rolling Stone Magazine 10th anniversary special from 1977!
