Oscar unplugged
March 4, 2006
For every triumph and polished performance, there's a dud speech, a fashion
disaster and a star-sized tantrum.
The Academy Awards throw up indelible images year after year. Remember
Bjork's swan dress and Michael Moore's angry blast at a fictional president?
Richard Gere's message for Deng Xiaoping and Nicole Kidman's win by a nose?
There was Whoopi Goldberg appearing in white make-up as the African Queen;
David Letterman's "Uma, Oprah" moment; Elia Kazan's controversial lifetime
achievement award; Peter Jackson with an Oscar in each hand; Roberto
Benigni's manic acceptance speech.
At Hollywood's ultimate spectacle, there are memorable triumphs and dramas
as surely as there are fumbled speeches, fashion disasters and jokes that
fall flat.
While always long and sentimental - even surreal when you recall a dance
tribute to Saving Private Ryan in 1999 - the Oscars remain one of the
world's great shows. Part fashion parade, tribute, comedy act, circus,
speech night, marketing exercise and eulogy, they bestow two dozen awards on
Hollywood's most glamorous and - inevitably - a few bearded, uncomfortable
technicians.
The academy no longer claims there are a billion TV viewers of its annual
event. Since being upstaged by the Grammies claiming 1.6 billion, the
viewing audience has been scaled back to a more realistic "hundreds of
millions".
On Monday (Sunday in the US), the multitudes will be watching to see whether
Brokeback Mountain will win best picture, whether that nice Reese
Witherspoon can claim best actress and how Jon Stewart compares with
legendary host Billy Crystal. It's easy to forget that the Oscars is also a
television show that has stagehands scrambling to shift sets, actors ducking
out the back for a smoke and friction behind the scenes when a winner's
speech runs past the 45-second limit. It's an event aimed at winning
American television ratings and requires months of planning, creative
decisions and rehearsals.
What happens off-screen is the subject of The Big Show: High Times and Dirty
Dealings Backstage at the Academy Awards, by Steve Pond, a journalist who
has an annual commission to study the inner workings of the Oscars for
Premiere magazine.
His observations are revealing. In 1995, viewers saw veteran Martin Landau,
having won best supporting actor for Ed Wood, get annoyed when his
longwinded speech was cut off by the show's orchestra. What we did not see
was awards producer Gil Cates getting increasingly agitated in the control
truck as Landau ran through a long list of names and ignored the warning
"PLEASE WRAP UP" flashing red on the teleprompter.
After two minutes, he was still talking. As Landau drew breath, Cates
angrily yelled "music", then "f--- him!". We also didn't see the Los Angeles
police on Oscars duty, checking nervously on walkie-talkies that Landau had
cleared the stage.
Measures to deal with gatecrashers and overzealous winners, Pond writes,
include blinding spotlights aimed at the stage and even rubber bullets. Had
such tactics been necessary, the sight of a blinded Landau cowering under
fire would have been even more memorable than Bjork's swan dress. Like the
historical awards footage designed to be dropped into the broadcast if there
is a disaster on stage, these extreme measures have not been required. So
far at least.
Over the years, we have seen stars at the Oscars wearing coloured ribbons in
support of various causes. We didn't know that, in 1996 at least, there were
baskets in the green room filled with different ribbons for stars to grab as
they wished - pink for breast cancer awareness, red for AIDS, green for the
environment and rainbow for Jesse Jackson's Rainbow Coalition. Just grab
one, no previous commitment required.
We saw Madonna.html' title='Madonna'>Madonna perform at the ceremony in 1997. But we didn't see the
Material Girl arriving at a rehearsal to find a female camera operator
seriously injured after falling into the orchestra pit. Told her stage time
was delayed, Madonna.html' title='Madonna'>Madonna looked puzzled. "But she's just lying there," she said.
"Can't we do this?"
In 2000, there was a medley of past Oscar-nominated songs performed by Ray
Charles, Isaac Hayes, Dionne Warwick and other notables. At the rehearsal
two days earlier, a disoriented Whitney Houston stumbled, fumbled and even
started to sing the wrong song, causing a frustrated Burt Bacharach to slump
over his piano, head on the keys. Faith Hill joined the line-up overnight
and the producers told everyone involved that, officially, Houston had a
sore throat. Best not mention those nasty drug rumours.
Every year, we admire the stars on the red carpet, glamorously attired and
bantering cheerfully with interviewers. What we did not see in 2001 was crew
members flipping a coin to see who was stuck with escorting three of the
most demanding stars: Barbra Streisand, Jennifer Lopez and Kevin Spacey.
It's confirmation, if it was needed, that the gods in Olympus have the same
flaws as the humans at home on the couch. And that away from their
publicists, they do not always present immaculately.
Pond says the Oscars can be an intimidating environment for stars. "When you
stand in the wings and you watch them just before they go on stage or watch
them walk off with their Oscars, you do get to see the scared kid in every
big movie star.
"I remember being in the green room listening to Winona Ryder talk about how
petrified she was about having to walk across the stage and do an
introduction. Angelica Huston came across and said, 'There's nothing to
worry about, you look great.' She really needed to calm her down.
"I remember Nicole Kidman, when she walked off after winning best actress,
she came into the wings with a stage manager who said, 'That was a really
great speech.' She said, 'Was it? I have no idea what I just said.'
"She's certainly not the only one. If you're backstage or in the wings, you
get to see these people at a point of vulnerability that they rarely show at
any other time."
Access backstage is therefore a rare privilege, especially for a writer with
a note-book. "There have been times when I've been asked to leave the room,
especially instances related to security," Pond says. "And there have been
times when somebody has said to me, 'This has to be off the record' and I've
always honoured that...
"They're comfortable with the fact that while I might be telling stories
they wouldn't necessarily want told, basically I get it right and I put it
in context and don't tell stories to be sensationalistic or gossipy."
While it's hard to say definitively that Philip Seymour Hoffman's
performance in Capote is better than Heath Ledger's in Brokeback Mountain,
competition turns the Oscars into a de facto sporting event each year. Pond
writes that the awards "ruthlessly turn the stars into haves and have-nots",
with far more of the latter than the former.
"When those first boxes appear on screen showing the faces of the nominees
as the envelope is opened, who doesn't want to catch the losers in that
moment of disappointment that proves impossible to hide?"
What about the question lingering over the awards for years: was the wrong
name read out when Marisa Tomei'>Marisa Tomei won best supporting actress for My Cousin
Vinny in 1993, usurping a who's who of favourites? And have there been other
times when an Oscar has gone to the wrong person?
Standing on both sides of the stage, Pond says, are representatives of the
accounting firm PricewaterhouseCoopers with matching sets of envelopes. This
pair have also spent days memorising the names and quizzing each other.
"They have very clear instructions that if a presenter opens the envelope
and says the wrong name, they are to walk on stage, stop the show and
announce the correct winner," Pond says. "Having talked to these guys, I
have no doubt whatsoever that if anyone other than Marisa Tomei'>Marisa Tomei had actually
been the winner that year, PriceWaterhouse would have stopped the show. They
wouldn't have let her go through with her acceptance speech."
Are the Oscars a true indicator of excellence, especially since the ruthless
campaigning that led to Shakespeare in Love beating Saving Private Ryan for
best picture in 1999, leaving Harrison Ford to express a rare moment of
unhappiness on the Oscars stage when his friend Steven Spielberg lost?
"I think if you ask most voters in the academy, they will tell you they are
voting for the movies they thought were the most accomplished," Pond says.
"Does politics come into it? Of course. Of course friendships come into it.
It's impossible to take any group of 6000 people and ask them to vote and
not have all sorts of other things influence their voting ... as a whole,
the majority are voting for what they consider to be the best achievements."
In the process, though, studios aggressively campaign for votes and academy
members respond to past events. Pond believes Russell Crowe's experiences
reveal how the academy is influenced.
"He's an example of how the Oscars aren't always about the performance that
they're honouring you for. Sometimes they're about the performance they
didn't nominate you for the year before."
Part of the reason Crowe won for Gladiator, Pond believes, was that voters
thought he should have won the year before for The Insider. "The next year
he was nominated for A Beautiful Mind. Maybe he should have won again but he
didn't because he'd won the year before for something he probably didn't
deserve to win for.
"He's not Tom Hanks, he's not Mr Beloved, who can win the award back-to-back
and everybody's happy about it."
And in case you're wondering, The Big Show also reveals the one question
that women regularly ask Oscars staff on the way to the stage. It's not "Is
Brad Pitt here?" or even "Do I deserve all this acclaim and wealth for
acting in a movie?" It is "Are my nipples even?"

Awards, by Steve Pond, is distributed by Palgrave Macmillan, $24.)

Whoopi Goldberg Gone Mad With Menopause
February 25, 2006, 6:40:05
The menopause has driven Oscar-winning actress Whoopi Goldberg completely
mad.
The Color Purple star, who celebrated her 50th birthday in November (05),
insists she doesn't know if she's coming or going since 'the change'
overtook her body, and never realised how it would alter her sense of
femininity.
She says, "I am haywire!
"I'm up, down, hot, cold, I'm all over the place.
"My sex drive has totally changed. One minute I'm like, 'Yeah! I can't wait
for it." The next I'm saying, 'Oh God, go away.'
"And my moods are completely erratic. I could cuss you out for two weeks,
then send you a Hallmark card to say I'm sorry.
"All of a sudden I don't mind saying to people, 'You know what? Get out of
my life. You're not right for me.'
"It's wonderful and liberating. "(But) the menopause can be hard to deal
with because it really is a shock when it hits you.
"There's no countdown. It's just boom. "All those years bitching about my
period and when it stopped, I was stunned to realise how much my womanhood
was tied into it.
"It hits you hard."

And the mike goes to...
The long search for an Oscar host is over, with an official
announcement from the academy expected to come early Thursday morning.
For the moment no one at AMPAS or involved with the production will
confirm it--but according to three sources familiar with the process,
the job of hosting the 78th Academy Awards will go to Jon Stewart, the
Emmy-winning writer-host of "The Daily Show" and a host of the Grammy
Awards in 2001 and 2002.
Times staff writers Scott Collins and John Horn report that Oscar show
officials first approached Stewart shortly before Christmas. According
to a source with first-hand knowledge of the situation, the deal was
wrapped up in a flurry of activity a day or two before the holiday.
For the past couple of months, Oscar producer Gil Cates' search for an
emcee has sometimes seemed to belong under the "Daily Show"-style
heading "Indecision 2005." Last year's host, Chris Rock, was not asked
back; eight-time host Billy Crystal declined an invitation because of
his busy schedule. Published reports claimed that negotiations were
also underway with Whoopi Goldberg and Steve Martin, though those were
never confirmed.
The 43-year-old Stewart does not have an extensive movie career, an
attribute Cates generally prefers in his hosts. Stewart has appeared in
a handful of films, few of which were Oscar material: "Death to
Smoochy," "Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back" and "The Office Party,"
among others.
But the barbed political humor of his nightly show on Comedy Central
figures to make Stewart a perfect fit for the Oscars, especially in a
year when many contenders--including "Brokeback Mountain," "Good Night,
and Good Luck, " "Crash," "Munich," "Syriana" and "The Constant
Gardener"--feature political and social themes.
Stewart will reportedly take at least a week off from "The Daily Show"
to prepare for the Oscars, though hosts often spend far longer
preparing for the task. Billy Crystal, in particular, often took a
couple of months to plan, shoot and assemble his opening film and craft
his song medley.
The new host will also use some of his own "Daily Show" writers to help
with material. This is standard operating procedure at the Oscars,
where the writing staff is usually divided into writers who work with
the host and writers who work on everything else, with the occasional
free agent (Bruce Vilanch comes to mind) moving between the two camps.
Stewart, who was born Jonathan Stewart Liebowitz, once told "60
Minutes" that he dropped the name Liebowitz because it "sounded too
Hollywood." Sorry, Jon. Can't get much more Hollywood than this new
gig of yours.

Steve Martin honoured
WASHINGTON (AP) - Steve Martin's character in The Jerk is ecstatic to find
his name in print - in the phone book. "Things are going to start happening
to me now!" he says.
Twenty-six years later, the actor and writer is receiving a more prestigious
form of recognition.
For his career achievements, Martin is being honoured Sunday with one of the
nation's top comedy awards, the Mark Twain Prize for American Humor.
Among those saluting the versatile performer at the John F. Kennedy Center
for the Performing Arts were actors Tom Hanks, Lily Tomlin, Diane Keaton,
Martin Short and Claire Danes and musicians Paul Simon and Randy Newman.
"He's an original genius," Short said before the ceremony. "He's kind of
blazed his own trail."
"I think he's the most intelligent man I've ever met," said Monty Python
veteran Eric Idle. "Honesty, simplicity and truth are the secret to his
comedy."
Hanks disagreed, saying Martin's success was based on "self-loathing and
unhappiness."
Asked if he had any regrets, Martin said, "It's a life of cherishing a few
things and regretting a lot of things, but that's the life of a performer."
Martin's career got off the ground in the late 1960s, when he wrote for the
television variety series The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.
As a stand-up comic, he grew popular on campuses and often appeared on
Johnny Carson's The Tonight Show.
He hit his stride playing larger-than-life characters while hosting Saturday
Night Live in the 1970s. His performances on that show - from a singing King
Tut to Georg Festrunk, better known as one of two "wild and crazy guys" -
earned him fame as a zany comedian.
After starring in the hit The Jerk in 1979, Martin appeared in more than 30
other films. He also wrote the screenplays for such films as Roxanne (1987)
and A Simple Twist of Fate (1994).
Over the years Martin expanded his repertoire to include plays, novels and
humorous magazine pieces for The New Yorker.
His 1993 play, Picasso at the Lapin Agile, which envisioned a meeting
between Albert Einstein and Pablo Picasso at a Paris cafe, has been produced
around the world.
Despite these sophisticated career turns, Martin, now 60, hasn't forgotten
where he came from: he will star next year as the stumbling, bungling
Inspector Jacques Clouseau in The Pink Panther, a prequel to the popular
Peter Sellers movies.
PBS plans to air the Martin tribute on Nov. 9. Previous Mark Twain Prize
winners include Richard Pryor, Jonathan Winters, Whoopi Goldberg and Bob
Newhart.

'SNL' STAR MOCKS CRUISE AND HOLMES ROMANCE
"Saturday Night Live" funnywoman Tina Fey mocked Tom Cruise and Katie
Holmes' high-profile romance in front of a host of celebrities on Wednesday
night.
The "Mean Girls" actress and writer and fellow "SNL" anchor Amy
Poehler entertained A-listers Gwyneth Paltrow, Whoopi Goldberg, Jay-Z and
Diane Sawyer at the Robin Hood Foundation's fundraising gala in New York
city.
Comedienne Fey took the opportunity to mock Cruise's now infamous appearance
on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" earlier this month, when the actor baffled
viewers by displaying his joy of being "in love" by leaping over furniture
and pounding the floor with his fist.
At the gala, Fey high-fived Poehler, before thrusting her fist in the air,
saying, "I love this woman! This woman is so hot.! She's a woman!"
After slapping herself, shouting, "Oh my God, I'm so gay," Fey's
star-studded audience burst into laughter, reports Page Six.

Dame Edna's clash with the colour of money
May 26, 2005
Vengeance is mine ... but the sentimental Billy Crystal is likely to beat
Dame Edna Everage for a Tony Award. Marcio Jose Sanchez
Photo: AP
Quantity not quality rules Broadway's Tony Awards, writes Phillip McCarthy.
It's the sort of discomfort someone like Dame Edna Everage could only wish
on carefully selected members of her audience. At Broadway's big orgy of
self-congratulation, next week's Tony Awards, she's the distinct underdog in
a category created especially for her four years ago.
Then, when the dame hit Broadway for the first time in 1999's Dame Edna: The
Royal Tour, there wasn't a Tony category for a one-person show that relied
on audience humiliation.
Answer? Create a one-off award, for "special theatrical event", to give a
dame her due. It was such a hit that by the next year "special theatrical
event" was elevated to a competitive category, aided by producers'
realisation that one-person formats were popular and profitable.
This year the dame's latest Broadway foray, Back with a Vengeance, is one of
four slugging it out for the now-coveted gong. It's fiercely competitive.
The competition is Billy Crystal's 700 Sundays, Whoopi Goldberg's Whoopi:
The 20th Anniversary Show and Mario Cantone's Laugh Whore. Back with A
Vengeance closed on May 1 after a six-month run during which the show sold
$US7 million ($9 million) in seats and collected reviews as glowing as those
four years ago.
So why is Dame Edna struggling to compete for an award that she got, in
effect, by acclamation in 2000?
The lights are bright, but money talks on Broadway. Crystal's show has taken
$US17 million since opening in December, has the highest average ticket
price of Broadway's 37 shows ($US106) and is still selling out a sizzling,
if statistically impossible, 102 per cent of its house. It has just been
extended until June 12, meaning the price might go through the roof in its
final week if it beats Dame Edna. And in a competition where the gongs are
often bestowed for the most economic benefit they can bring, it is also the
only nominee still playing.
In contrast, the closure of Back with a Vengeance meant that it forfeited
the "current attraction" status that powered The Royal Tour so successfully
in 2000. And Tonys voters, often industry insiders, can be hard-headed. If
bestowing a Tony can provide a box office bump, says one prevailing
attitude, why waste it on a show with no box office to bump? The latest
extension to 700 Sundays, announced a few days after the nominations, was
probably contingent on getting nominated.
In its final weeks, Back with a Vengeance was selling as low as 44 per cent
of its house, probably making closure a financial necessity. Still, a few
weeks later it looks like a bad strategic move if Dame Edna wants to make
Broadway history by winning the same award in two different ways.
In a year in which the nominations brazenly snubbed some Hollywood stars on
Broadway - Denzel Washington, Natasha Richardson, Jeff Goldblum and Jessica
Lange did not get nominated - it's probably sensible to pay homage to a
Tinseltown insider like Crystal.
It makes even more sense when Crystal, the veteran Oscars host, has a track
record of getting big television audiences for awards shows. This year's
three-time return host, Hugh Jackman, pocketed a Tony last year and probably
won't want to become a Radio City Music Hall fixture forever.
Few Broadway punters rate the special theatrical event category as more than
a two-horse race between Crystal and Barry Humphries. Goldberg is given
little chance and Cantone is a bit too edgy for Tony voters. The irony for
Dame Edna is that her reviews last November ("in the pantheon of the world's
great comedians", said The New York Times) were a good deal more gushing
than those for Crystal's largely autobiographical and very sentimental show.
"You don't need to put on the psychological armour you would wear for Dame
Edna Everage," the Times said of Crystal's show a few weeks later in a much
more reserved review.
The Tony Awards are handed out at Radio City Music Hall on June 1.

NY DAILY NEWS...RUSH AND MOLLOY
Christopher Reeve's widow, Dana, is restarting her singing career. The
43-year-old mom was hoping to open at Feinstein's, the cabaret club in
the Regency Hotel, in October. Then she - and we - lost Chris. Now that
she feels strong enough to pick up a mike again, she's due to play
Feinstein's next month, singing standards she and her husband loved.
"That's how Chris and I met - he saw me singing at the Williamstown
[Mass.] Theater," she tells us. "So [the show] will definitely be
inspired by him."
Meanwhile, Chris Noth belted out songs at Tuesday's party for the
Cutting Room, the Flatiron club he owns with Steven Walter.
Whoopi Goldberg and Paul Shaffer congratulated the duo on a five-year
run that's seen performances by Kid Rock, Sheryl Crow, Carly Simon and,
yes, Gwyneth Paltrow.
Noth himself picked out some blues shouters, including "Take Your Pants
Off," a fitting soundtrack for a show that featured a lady in pasties
spinning a Hula-Hoop.
Small wonder he's thinking about opening a Cutting Room in Sin City.
Said the civic-minded Noth: "I think it would be good for Vegas."
