Oscar Buzz

I have no interest in motion picture awards, but I see there was a bit of chatter online last night because a photographer took a tumble as Lady Gaga breezed past him on the "champagne carpet" (I guess they didn't want any more red, after last year's fisticuffs) at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.

So the guy falls, for whatever reason, and the next thing you know, Gaga scoots over to help him get up.


As only "Entertainment Weekly" could write the story, she did so, "shimmying past others in her elegant Versace gown."

It's a sad day in our life, when one person helps another human being get up off the floor.  That is basic human decency. If I ever took a nosedive in the produce aisle, I would only hope that someone would lend a hand, getting an old man upright again.

Someone shared this video of what happened; you can hear some onlooker correctly saying that it was very nice of her to help. Then Lady G kept right on walking into the ceremony.

She is no stranger to the Oscar stage, having won in 2019 for co-writing "Shallow," from the A Star Is Born soundtrack. She was headed to the show last night to sing "Hold My Hand," her nominated song from Top Gun: Maverick. 

It seems like only yesterday, but it was in 2010 at the MTV Awards show that the singer, born Stefani Joanne Angelina Germanotta, wore a dress made of beef.

In all seriousness, it's really great that she is so humble and down-to-earth as to help a person out. The sad thing is that most people, let alone most rich and famous entertainers, would not have. 

Let's give the Lady a hand!
