Hmm...this is my speech:


Wow. Well, I didn't think I'd be up here....anytime...ever. Umm..guess I better start thanking people...Mom and dad, first of all. I love you both and can't say how thankful I am-Oh my god! This disk spins?! ::starts spinning it around:: Wow, I thought it just stayed there...wow!...::totally distracted by spinning thing::...Oh. Umm, anyway. ::darts eyes around:: Kelly, Claire, Meagan, uhh, thank you, all three of you. I..want to thank...uh...the cast, wonderful crowd, producers, directors, techies, all you guys are great. (Which I'm sure they'll be)...oh God, can I stop thanking people? I'm bound to forget someone and then I'll end up feeling really bad later on at night. Let me just wrap this up: thanks for the people who nominated me and voted for me. ::mouths - You guys rock! with a thumbs up sign:: And...BWW! ::exit with peace sign::

No idea... But I find it funny that all the actors thank their fellow nominees and say how great they are when, in all reality, they have most likely never seen them perform. They are doing shows at the same time. Although it is possible that they saw them in something else.

I would like to thank DollyPop for believing in me when I was a teenager in the 70's. It was a time when I couldn't believe in myself. Thankyou for being an inspiration and positive influence on my life.

I would thank hallucinagenic drugs because the voters must have been taking them! As well as the casting director and anyone who would pay hard earned money to hear me sing. If I won a Tony I would have the thank the hallucinagenic drugs-deffinatly!

My speech:

Whoa, I won an award. That's cool. So, any casting agents, give me a call. My contract's about to end. Oh yeah, thank you everybody.

If you forget someone you're doomed to be reminded of said omission for the rest of your days (right, Hilary Swank?) and if you get too emotional, you're a punchline for life (I'm talking about you, Halle Berry), and if you blather on for too long, they WILL cut you off (won't they, Elaine Stritch?). So my speech would go something like this:

"There are too many people to thank individually, so I won't try. But to every single person responsible for my standing here today, I thank you all from the bottom of my heart."

I want mine to be like Ramirez's...thank some random object (kinda like John Hill thanking 'pot' in his bio) and then be like "this is REALLY cool!" ...then of course, thank my family and friends, etc.


"Youuu love me! You reallllly love me!!!"

I wish all recipients of awards had even a fraction of the grace and class that Bill Irwin showed last night.

I agree, DGrant. His acceptance came across as very genuine, appreciative, and heartfelt. Classy guy.

I would thank myself for being so incredibly awesome enough to win the award. Then I would thank my parents for giving birth to me so that I could be so awesome. Then I would find the closest mirror so that I could see how awesome I look holding a T*ny.

"I'd like to say that out of all the performances in this category, I liked mine the most. Thank you Tony voters for getting it right. Thank you fellow nominees for not being as good as me. I'd also like to thank Shoshididenconie Espinenzelblockbenoh for being an inspiration. Thank you again for realizing that I truly deserved this. Goodnight!"

[Mister Matt]

Posted: 6/6/05 at 12:20pm

Oh yes, and I would remember to applaud myself when the announce the nominees and then hoot for myself when I win like Tana with her "the-circle-thing-was-my-idea" on The Apprentice finale. That was so awesomely cool.

"Thank You." --Joe Pesci at the Oscars; ditto Patty Duke and Marlon Brando (#1)

"Thank you for this. Now if I only had a job...." --Tony Randall at the Emmys. The Odd Couple had just been cancelled.
