I thought you were speaking of my complete hash (due to poor editing and bad proof reading) of Annie Liebvoitz’s name; which due to my rereading of my comment thanks to you, is now fixed.   🙂

I can’t claim to know everybody in the full photo, only most of them.

Hmmm… I could pick Randy Quaid and Don Cheadle out of this lineup, if you said their names…
But I guess not Edward Norton, Jude Law, or Ewan McGregor.

I just don’t go to enough movies…. sigh…. and none since Covid.

Hugh Grant went from A-List to Z-List in one Mugshot…

Only for a minute, if you mean the one I think.

That was back in the 90s…
and maybe cost him a role or two, or even a short hiatus.

But it sure didn’t seem to stick.

Notting Hill, the Bridget Jones films, and a LOT of other famous films came afterward, well into this century.

And this “Alpha List”-labeled photo is from 2003.

I remember when one of his first interviews after “the incident” was with Johnny Carson, and how THAT conversation went…

If you mean when he said “I did a bad thing” I believe Johnny Carson had retired, so that was with Jay Leno…. and it actually seemed to endear him to people.

Thanks for the correction. You are correct, Carson had retired a couple of years before the incident. I did a Google search, and, Yes, that is in-part what Grant said:

What did Hugh Grant say on Jay Leno?
During the interview, Leno was quick to ask Grant “What the hell were you thinking?” as the audience erupted into laughter. “You know in life what’s a good thing to do and a bad thing to do. I did a bad thing,” Grant told the late night host at the time. The rest of the interview remained lighthearted with Grant explaining how the arrest impacted…

Mom never cared for that song. She felt bad for the guy who couldn’t get in.

She also felt bad for the guy who got “No bread, with one meat ball”.

Well, duh.

All you have to do is look for… you know… the one who doesn’t have a gavel.

Somewhat complicated by the fact that you can’t see whether a couple of them on the extreme left or any in the whole bottom row have anything at all…

But okay, okay…. I’ll play.

Assuming we’re talking about only the fully visible participants, and that they’re all lawyers…

I only see ONE….

without a gavel….

If you look closely you can see the gavel handle.

But I agree that it does look more like a coffee mug… maybe because it’s so big.

The head of a gavel is usually more like 3″ high.

Oh Claude. You know there’s no comparison….

A robot dog will never be excited to see you, never curl up in your lap… never show you love and affection.

That’s why you need a real d….

Wait… we’re talking about Cleo, right?
Ok, there must be some other reason you need Cleo.

I’ll give you some time to think, ok?
