making the best of a bad situation, times two

[rone]

I doubt any of you will be surprised to hear that Halle Berry won a Razzie for Catwoman.  However, what was surprising to me was that she appeared at the ceremony to receive her award.  Best parts: "A raucous crowd cheered her on as she gave a stirring recreation of her Academy Award acceptance speech, including tears. [...] “I want to thank Warner Brothers for casting me in this piece of shit,” she said as she dragged her agent on stage and warned him “next time read the script first.” " (via the formidable warrenelliscom)

In other wacky news about cultural and societal expectations, a Jew goes incognito to have a recruitment dinner with white supremacists (whose Jewdar is obviously rather broken).

I was going to post about Halle Berry's performance at the Razzies, but I couldn't think of anything more insightful to say than "I have a respect for her now that I didn't have twenty-four hours ago." She's a good sport if nothing else; I didn't sense in her recorded comments the desperation I think I'd experience if I were in her shoes.
