I am putting my money on Meryl Streep for her "Trump is a sexist pig who says naughty things about women", oh wait, I have to go and celebrate how wonderful confessed child rapist Roman Polanski is.
Though I must admit in this category there are plenty of outstanding examples
Maybe Trump should try having some skill at something.

"Maybe Trump should try having some skill at something."
He already has a wonderful skill; he isn't that miserable hag Clinton.
You LOST, twit. Quit whining.
With hands like those I bet he's actually a marvelous knitter.
Trump seems good at winning presidential primaries and elections.
LOL
The thing about having to listen to political speeches where so many didn't come to hear them, is that it will surely lead to fewer people spending money watching entertainment from the offenders, and more people will quit watching the Oscars as well. Who wants the political opinion of a pampered out of touch actor anyway? Conservatives don't boycott as much as progressives/liberals, but it's happening a lot more considering how offensive it's getting.
Heck, when I go to the movies, if it's an actor that supports political positions I don't, I'll buy a ticket to another movie and go see the one with the offending actor. And while I find Meryl Streep and Ashley Judd fine actors, or Weinstein films entertaining, I won't buy tickets for their movies anymore. I feel I'm funding politicians that harm me otherwise.

Somewhere along the line these attention whores started to believe their opinions are so important that all us little people could not live or function properly in society without their asinine views.
I recommend these overpaid, under-worked, self-absorbed ass wipes take their meds and come back to planet Earth, because, believe it or not, most of us don't give two shits and rat's ass what they think.
Gave me the creeps. I didn't think it was going to be a documentary!
Uh-oh. Mel Gibson and Vince Vaughn weren't giving the less attractive Zach Galifianakis a harrumph.
From left to right, Meryl Streep... an... uh... yeah, I got nothing. Don't recognize any of them.
You don't recognize that guy from The Hangov--wait, is that him? You know, that guy?
Zach Galapagos or something
I'm waiting for the day that a celebrity stands up at one of these awards shows and says he/she voted for Trump, lambastes the leftists and is booed off the stage under a barrage of gift bags and pink vajayjay hats. Now that would be entertaining.
Bravo Creech!!!!
Seriously, YOU JUST NAILED IT!!!!
However, you know they cannot do that given the fact their palms are being severely greased with big bucks by those controlling their puppet strings!
Germane.
Interesting. The article almost praises him. Must be some esploding heads in their readership by now.
Trump sweeps this year.
Reagan wins Lifetime Achievement Award.
Did someone say...The Hollywood Awards?
That was pretty good:)
WTF?
"Judy, Judy, Judy" was Cary Grant, not Humphrey Bogart. And Grant never uttered those words, though he came close in "Only Angels have Wings".
The real question is, who will give the most fatuous political speech? That's where there will be some real competition.
Hollyweird has been full of hot air and blovation since the 1920's. Few people realixe that the 'Hollywood Reds' were as nasty a bunch of unrepentant Stalinists as you would care to avoid meeting. Any actual help they gave International Communism (read; the USSR) was doubtless purely accidental, but they bullied a lot of their fellows, and more than one Hollywood type who 'named names' to Congress was simply getting even.
People who emote forma living have a right to their political opinions, but experience shows that said opinions are driven by neurosis.
There have been a few exceptions. Reagan springs to mind, as does Brigadier General Jimmy Stewart. They are the exceptions, not the rule.
Hey CSP, Ever heard of the Blacklist?
Yes, a list of people that Hollywood refused to hire because of their politics. Your point being?
Global warming, existential crisis, etc. I think DiCaprio has this locked up already.
??????OWallace: My total earnings for first month was very low... Just little over $250, but it was then when I realized this is the real deal and not yet another scam you see all over the internet! There are no words to describe the feeling you get when your first paycheck arrives and what excitement I felt at that moment realizing that making money from home is in fact very possible. After my first month I dedicated more time and put more effort in working this and my second month was already much more better (2nd paycheck I got was for $990)... Now, 6 months later, I am earning just over $2500 a month . I am a little slow with my work and I am not that good with computers and that's why I think a younger person could be able to earn much much more than this... ....??????? ?????____BIG- EARN .MONEY____???????-
So why does Meryl Streep wear glasses to accept her award? Does she have to see the cameras? Or does she think it gives her gravitas?
reading the teleprompter.
She's an actor, can't she memorize her lines?
Who cares?
??????OMy last month paycheck was for 11000 dollars... All i did was simple online work from comfort at home for 3-4 hours/day that I got from this agency I discovered over the internet and they paid me for it 95 bucks every hour... This is what I do...... ....??????? ?????____BIG- EARN.MONEY____???????-

I have to watch or otherwise pay attention to play, right? That takes me out of this game.
Today, we're offered up anti-leftism in the form of the Daytona 500, or the pro-leftism of ignorant, smelly people who "act".
The 500 drivers face real danger. The Hollywood bunch faces fake danger.
Really best political speech ever by a celebrity, i did not see it before.

Whether is is Ted "kill-em and grill-em" Nugent or insane Madonna, I could give a shit what any celebrity thinks.
It was Asghar Farhadi. He talked about the inhumanity of banning travel from 7 desperately poor countries who citizens pose no threat to the United States.
You mean the prick who compared Trump to the Iranian despots?
Iran is a country that has executed thousands of gays and lesbians for their sexual orientation. You bet I have "disagreements" with its people. That's even if we disregard the folly of admitting large numbers of people from "desperately poor countries".
Iran, a country whose government hangs dissenting citizens from cranes in public, isn't even remotely close to being a "desperately poor" country you self-important, half-retarded, ignorant moron.
