This Is What Frances McDormand Wore To The Tonys
Just when I was about to declare Christie Brinkley my personal goddess of the Tony Awards for showing up looking and posing like a Drop Dead Gorgeous extra, Frances McDormand took to the stage to accept her award for Best Actress in a Play while wearing an ensemble that is slightly dressier than the ripped sweat shorts I'm wearing right now.
If you needed fucks to get into the Tonys last night, I'm not sure Frances would've gotten in, because she obviously didn't have any to give. Frances also saved reporters from asking her the stupid question "Who are you wearing?", because the red tag on her jean jacket already gave up that information. The look of the night. This is what your high school poli sci teacher would look like if you ran into her at the car wash on the weekend. Hair that couldn't even pick out a hairbrush from a line-up of hairbrushes.
And if wearing your mom's favorite beach outfit to a fancy awards show wasn't enough for me to fall in love with Frances all over again, she busted out her best mug shot poses backstage. If there isn't such thing as a "Best Dressed of the Tonys" list, then there needs to be so Frances can sit on top of that shit where she belongs.
Here's a few more pictures from last night's Book of Mormon Appreciation Ceremony. In order: my new style icon, DanRad, Professor Whoopi McGonagall, Judith Light, Christie Brinkley, PATSY STONE!!!, Alec Baldwin with guest, Tyne Daly with her piece, Al Pacino with guest and Ellen Barkin.

If you squint, Ellen Barkin almost looks like a lesbo Loni Anderson, which is… uh, okay, I guess…
Frances McDormand is wearing the same dress she wore for the Golden Globe awards (or whatever) for Burn After Reading. Nifty.
I've seen Frances McD wear worse get-ups than last night. She's one of a kind, just let her be. What did you think she'd wear, something to match Christie Brinkley?

Ain't that the truth. I bet she has her Sports Illustrated covers in every room of the house. Bathrooms and children's playroom included.
If her daughter's have smarts they won't bring a boy home to met Mom until they've been married at least two years.

Yes, Brinkley, we get it already: you look phenomenal for your age or any age, for that matter. Now go and rub your daughter's nose in it.
Do Women's Correctional Centres allow day passes or did she do a runner?

How can she be that fat and still smoke?
--------------------
Who is this that is still fat and smokes? Me? For sure if it's pot (delivery tomorrow!) Do you mean Tyne Daly? I think I'd like to get stoned with her and Sharon Gless.

Anytime I saw an old guy with a young woman on his arm, I say to Baby Bjork in my bus/subway-inclusive voice, "Aw, see how Daddy loves his daughter, just like I love you!" Idiots. I saw some fool like this the other day who looked like he was 60 on a good day with some chickie, expensive hobo bag on her anorexic tree-limb arm, who looked like she was 16. He probably has some teeny weeny sports car that he squeezes his old fat ass into, too.
But I digress a bit. Pacino was the shit in his day and is still a good actor when he isn't being what Truman Capote said of Rod Steiger, a "real jambon."

Don't forget Heat...Pacino is brilliant in that movie. Also plays an excellent Shylock in The Merchant of Venice.

Other that a few solid movies .Dog Day Afternoon being one of his best..Al Pacino is THE BIGGEST OVER ACTOR in the history of Hollywood.
A few? Besides the brilliant "Dog Day Afternoon," there is "Panic in Needle Park"; "The Godfather I and II" (I pretend "III," never happened, it was just a bad dream); "Scarecrow"; and "Serpico" are more than a few. He was even good in some clunkers (ahem, "Bobby Deerfield"). It's too bad that he's become a parody of himself in the last ten years or so. A delightful shitfest is "Crusing," failed seriousness at its best. Seeing him in that perm (and that scene in the disco) is worth the price of admission.
Regarding Frances McDormand, there is the scene in this documentary that Rosanna Arquette made, "Looking for Debra" or something like that (Debra being Debra Winger, who disappeared for awhile). Anyway, Frances and Holly Hunter talk about age, and Frances says to Holly, hey, let's never have plastic surgery so that when they need someone to play an older woman, we can have all the parts. She is genius, and she's also very nice. This reminds me of when another brilliant actress, Samantha Morton, showed up at some "Vogue" type event in a t-shirt and jeans (it might have been the yearly big Met event).
Snideychick sez:
Christy Brinkley = RAOWRRRRR!!!
That is all.
I like that she dressed down. It makes you see how everyone else looks ridiculous, with their overpriced dresses and fake hair.
Submitted by jack-n-the-hat: "Christie Brinkley is still hotter than SHIT!!! damn. (except for her poor arthritic hands) :( "
Noooooooo, jack; how can you like her? She did it with Goopy's "dear friend" William Joel!
Thank goodness she her looks because upstairs, well... Here she is on Leno where she talks about seeing a UFO in the "tiny village of Crete":

Pats and Eddy are awesome!
So is Frances.
Judith Light has the Botox wonk.
Shut up you ugly poo-faced git!
Sort of feel sorry for Whoopi and "Sister Act" the musical. The star who was nominated, the Brit - she was fantastic and came over from the London show. I saw her there. But like in London, it was nominated for a bunch but lost. I think it has to do with everyone already knowing the story and it's just not original. Had it not been a movie first.....
PSL I love that movie!

The dermatologist who figures out how to make hands younger is going to make a mint.
True. And, necks.
Frances is totally in tune with Broadway. Love it.
Whoopi is an attention seeking dickhead. sorry.
christie, this is not your fucking prom, settle down. frances can do no wrong in my eyes, not after Fargo.

What a friend I have in jesus, I can say that
honestly. He's not like all my other friends who really don't care about me.
Why is Pacino wearing a headband? From the neck up, he looks like he should be roaming the seats at a rock concert.

THANK YOU for mentioning this - my jaw dropped at this Seaside Heights boardwalk outfit.
And thank you x2 for the Drop Dead Gorgeous quip! Ha
(Ellen Barkin won - all I could hear was "AMBER, GET MY SMOKES")
Ellen Barkin scares the ever loving shit out of me. I mean it...like she would eat a kid's head off or knife you in a dark alley. And when people are all like "you go with your bad self" about Ellen Barkin, I don't get it, to me that would be like saying "you go with your bad self" about the clown in IT. Kind of the same kind of face and (I imagine) behavior.

I thought that was Julianne Hough. They all start to look alike with the surgery. I don't blame Francis for not wanting to play the "do you like my dress" game.

Who are you calling silly cow?
I'm really curious what the thought process is behind Whoopie's whole ensemble. Because it looks like it was something along the lines of, "I hate myself. I hate myself. I hate myself...." But I could be wrong.
