WHAT A SILLY BILLY YOU ARE!

-

THE more ‘woke’ something is, the more it tends to send me off to sleep.

But not so the appearance of American actor Billy Porter on the red carpet at Sunday night’s Oscars.

In what was no doubt intended to be some very complex and meaningful statement of gender neutrality/equality, Porter wore an extraordin­ary ‘tuxedo gown’.

Everyone, of course, said he looked fabulous. I thought he looked a tiny bit silly — but judge for yourselves.

Either way, I don’t care: Glenn Close was standing behind him as he posed for the photograph­ers — and her expression was priceless. If it’s good enough for Glenn, it’s good enough for me.
