Ernie Borgnine was just on O’Reilly’s show last week. He looks great, and he’s sharp as a tack.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

Goodness, Lynn Redgrave (the Good Redgrave woman), died. Georgie Girl!

Jeff Bridges. I’ve always been a fan. More of him and less of everyone else and I might make it to the end.

[mass55th]

"Imagine this, Ernest Borgnine is alive!"

Yep! Still spry and still acting!!

[altura]

Natalie Portman is a beauty.

[patriot08]

Yes! Eli Wallach is 96!

[BunnySlippers]

Wow. His wife, Tova, is a trip.

Halle Barry can’t get her heroes straight. Tonight she said it was Lena Horne who paved the way for black women to open doors and she was forever grateful. Seems like only yesterday, while accepting her award, she was praising Hattie McDaniel as the one woman who paved the way for black actresses. Who will it be next year?

EB’s wife sells cosmetics on the home shopping network. They’re still happily married. He’s Mermaid Man on Spongebob Squarepants too.

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Tom Hooper...Best Director...King's Speech

[Arizona Carolyn]

Actually, she didn’t marry him and now they are in their custody battle she basically wants her daughter raised black because Haley subscribes to the “one drop of blood” rule.

I never heard of the trashy actress who dropped the "F bomb" and wonder if it was a description of how she got the part.

Melissa Leo - she played the redhead female detective in "Homicide: Life On The Streets" on TV. She was nominated for Best Actress in "Frozen River" 2 years ago and shoulda won. I was VERY surprised when she dropped the F-Bomb ...

[Dr. Scarpetta]

Natalie Portman...Best Actress

[wardaddy]

Tuco...bad.

God bless him...im tearing up

[Fishtalk]

She had a white mother. HEr black father abandoned her. Her mother raised her as a single mother.

So much for Haile’s black heritage.

>>Imagine this, Ernest Borgnine is alive!<<

I ran into him at the grocery store the other day. He was HILARIOUS! He basically said “I know what people think — how do actors do grocery shopping? Well, here is the answer — we do it ourselves.”

I know there is a lot of stuff about what happened with his ex-wife, but he was quite gracious.

[BunnySlippers]

A beauty, but dumb ...
