This picture is so special. With Dame Meldy winning her fourth Olivier for Best Actress in a Musical (her fifth overall, taking an early supporting gong), here’s a throwback to her first. It requires huge discipline not to caption it: “Bea Arthur and Imelda Getty-Staunton, 1991”.

Just sayin’. Glenn Close in legal TV shows is a recession indicator.

…although, frankly, this satellite scoop from an April ‘90 edition of the trashy tabloid STAR is what caught my eye. A fine thing when Shelley could find herself a feeder and I can’t!

Wishing Our Number One Lady a Happy Birthday! A woman’s age is never discussed, but, let’s just say, each of Glennie’s digits correspond to her Oscar nominations -- and whether or not you count “Hillbilly Elegy”.

Tonight’s SAG Awards. Are you predicting Ms. Saldaña and Ms. Moore -- or is the rise of the AfD, Alternative für Demi, inevitable?

The moment Our Number One Lady gave same-sex couples (and the partially sighted) grounds to say: “Screw you, Glenn Close!”. It’s the SAG Awards tonight, mes chers. You have two options to watch it: you can either stream it at 1 am Irish time on Glennflix – or you could get a life.

I’m only rooting for Diane Warren to win a (real) Oscar next Sunday, so I can finally repurpose the memes I had ready to go for Glenn’s triumph on February 24th 2019... They’ve been hogging space on my Google Drive since WHAT HAPPENED happened. Sixteenth time’s the charm, Diane!
