Seth Meyers personified the predictably smug and self-congratulatory Golden Globes Awards on Sunday. The Golden Globes ceremony is the January ritual that kicks off the actors’ awards season, where actors give each other awards and which lasts through November. It is good to see these stars finally getting some recognition.
These award shows are the only way to see that many Hollywood stars together eating, drinking and mocking Middle America without donating to a $25,000-a-plate Harvey Weinstein Democrat National Committee fundraiser.
From the way celebs attack Trump in lockstep, I am not entirely sure that the statuettes they hand out this awards season do not depict John Wilkes Booth.
For being part of an industry that lauded and harbored Harvey Weinstein for 30 years, they seem so happy with themselves. They admire their own courage for the hashtags they re-tweeted this year: #MeToo. They all got together and wore black, which was a huge personal sacrifice because some of them look better in red couture.
Ron HartThere is nothing heroic or noble about kicking Harvey Weinstein now that he’s down. The real cowardly act was doing nothing for decades about this “open secret” in Hollywood. If they want to be like sports, take away the Oscars and other awards from actresses who slept with Weinstein to get roles. The entertainment business should apologize for Harvey Weinstein, and whoever wrote that equally tormenting Kars4Kids jingle.
