HYPOCRISY IS THE NEW BLACK: In the whirlwind grab-onto-any-headline-that will-make-you-sound-like-a-profound-thinker-without-the-benefit-of-having-to-learn-anything-about-the-subject-so-that-you-don’t-embarrass-yourself-with-disproportionately-inane-public-comments world known as the Hollywood movie award season, the semi-nude think tank conveys a timely lesson in the evils of sexually objectifying women to the Great Unwashed in typical “do as a dribble, not as I do” fashion by wearing the latest in superficial designer minimalist funeral wear at this year’s inaugural Movieland Pay for Play, aka the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.
Black Gowns Matter: Hollywood Explains It All To You
Ah, the Golden Globe Awards, that monument to critical integrity that once put Pia Zadora on the map by way of the deep pocket resources of the reckless Riklis empire plying the open mouths and greedy hands of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, that covert roster of carhops, failed escorts, personal trainers and fugitives from ICE, who determined that her stunning demonstration of the thespian art in the cinematic masterwork “Butterfly” (co-starring a beyond redemption Orson Welles, whose participation should have found him stripped of all career encomia and summarily beaten with the lost reels of “The Magnificent Ambersons”) was worthy of the bestowing of the title “New Star of the Year”.
