4.114/365: happy Oscars day (we must remember this)

On this Oscars day, I’d like to remind you (or inform younger readers) of the 1989 Oscars that began with an actress playing a non-Disney-approved Snow White being wooed/schooled by Rob Lowe (just prior to the news of his sex tape from the Democratic National Convention hitting) and put together by the producer of Grease. Snow White’s voice was super high during the 12-minute opener and especially her duet with Lowe — “Proud Mary,” its lyrics changed to, “Keep the cameras rollin’, rollin’, rollin’.” Yes, that happened. Here’s a clip. And enjoy tonight’s show.
