Popping culture: memories of Oscars past, the porcine edition

It’s such a shame.

The Oscars used to be so much fun. Now they’re sanitized and memed. No more naked men running, no more protests.

But there was a time when one woman stood up to the Academy for what she believed was right — that to limit the nominations due to species was unethical.

I give you Miss Piggy.

(Note: keep watching after Miss Piggy leaves the stage for a fantastic cameo by Ann Miller. I keep expecting her to start dancing.)
