Hot Slut Of The Day!

Eileen Bowman, the actress who earned a place in the Oscars Fuckery Hall of Fame when she played Snow White in the glittery train wreck opening number at the 1989 Academy Awards!

Hollywood and Broadway producer Alan Carr died in 1999, and when he did, his brain should’ve been preserved and displayed at the Smithsonian, because it is a national treasure that came up with the idea of having a singing Snow White and Rob Lowe bust out Proud Mary during the opening of the Oscars in 1989. It was the perfect way to end the era of pure foolery.

Bruce Vilanch, who has been a writer on the Oscars for eons, said that Alan produced Grease, Grease 2, Can’t Stop The Music and La Cage aux Folles on Broadway, so he was big into musical theater and glamour. Alan saw a show in San Francisco called Beach Blanket Babylon and in it, there was a bit where Snow White moves to Hollywood and becomes a movie star. Alan produced the 1989 Oscars and got the idea to use that bit in the opening number.

Alan decided that during the opening number, stars of the Golden Age of Hollywood should sit at tables in a set done up like the Coconut Grove as Merv Griffin, as well as younger stars, performed around them.  Not only did a 13-year-old Mayim Bialik perform as her Beaches character with The Nicholas Brothers, but Rob Lowe and his “date” Snow White sung together and even went into the audience. The number went on for 15 nightmare minutes and apparently, the best part was the faces on the stars in the audience who all looked like they were trying hard to give themselves a sudden case of violent diarrhea so they’d have a good reason to run out of there. The opening number was like one of Rob Lowe’s acid trip terrors.

Alan Carr never really worked in Hollywood again, but who cares! His job was done after giving the Oscars one of their greatest and campiest moments. Here’s clips of one of the bright shining highlights of Rob Lowe’s careers. And Not-So-Fun Fact: the sex tape that Rob Lowe made with a 16-year-old leaked not long after, because I guess the universe decided that 1989 would be the year of horrific shit starring Rob Lowe.

I bet that over the years, the boring ass Academy learned to love that iconic turd. And after hosts Anne Hathaway and James Franco shit and barfed the Oscars bed in 2011, the Academy probably thought to themselves, “That made me miss a singing Rob Lowe and Snow White…

Eileen Bowman, who was cast to play Snow White, was brand new at the time and her career in Hollywood never really went anywhere after that. Her biggest credit, besides the Oscars, on her IMDB page is playing a “valet” in an episode of Silk Stockings. Three years ago, Eileen talked to The Hollywood Reporter about being a part of the rhinestone-encrusted dingle that was shat out by the 1989 Oscars, and she dropped this bit of info about her Snow White costume.

“My dress was bought for $23,000 by someone involved with the production who was buried in it. It was a man. I’m leaving it at that.”

Tonight’s Oscars is going to be approximately 13 hours long, but sitting through all of it will be worth it if they close the show with Eileen Bowman singing Proud Mary as Snow White while Mayim Bialik (as her Beaches character) tap dances behind her. It is really time for Eileen Bowman’s triumphant return to the Oscars!
