Scott closed with kind words: “Rest in peace the Queen of Soul Aretha Franklin.”, Hopefully that wasn’t MTV’s tribute to one of music’s best singers of all-time, who died last week, Lopez, who earned the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award silver silk flower girl shoe, platinum toddler ballet slipper, silk baby shoe, ballet flat, little girls wedding shoe, bootie, b for lifetime achievement, provided the night’s most energetic performance, She started off slow — Kylie Jenner and Scott’s unamused faces perfectly captured the vibe — but she hit a strong stride when she sang old smashes like “Jenny from the Block,” ”I’m Real” — where Ja Rule joined her onstage — and “All I Have,” which showed the skilled dancer’s vocal range..

Michael Kahn: I was a kid. We were all kids. I was still at Columbia and I was directing at Barnard. I remember I directed the French Club’s production of “Orphee” by Cocteau, and I was a friend of Andy Warhol’s at that time, so Andy did the set. At that time he was still working at I. Miller doing shoe advertisements. Caffe Cino [was owned by Joe Cino], a fat Italian guy who loved theater, so he had a coffeehouse and had plays in the evening. . . . And a lot of them dealt with subjects that hadn’t been dealt with before, like incest and madness. At La MaMa, Ellen Stewart began bringing in theater at night, people would come to see the play and have coffee. I don’t know if it was a coffeehouse during the day or not, but I did a whole bunch of things there. Ellen just scraped by, but she was a major figure. She was a swimwear designer and her job paid for the [theater]. She was a wonderful character. When I first met her, I don’t think she had a Caribbean accent, but somehow she got one.

Albert Finney in “Scrooge” (1970). At 34, Finney may have been a bit too young for the part, but he hams it up through this merry musical, even cutting a rug during Scrooge’s future funeral for the big “Thank You Very Much” production number. The energetic effort earned him a Golden Globe award. Scrooge McDuck in “Mickey’s Christmas Carol” (1983). Talk about obvious, no-brainer casting. So why did Disney animators take so long to put McDuck in the role of his tightwad namesake? (The character first appeared in a 1947 comic book). At least the greedy fowl made up for lost time, ruffling the feathers of everyone around him until finally seeing the light.
