I have revised my opinion about Sean Young
I used to think she was a demented, self-sabotaging bitch. Now I think she's a demented, self-sabotaging bitch who is providing the only entertainment value coming out of Hollywood for the last few months. So there she was at the Director's Guild Awards the other night:
The actress, who rose to fame in the late 1980's and early 1990's, reportedly began yelling in French as Marion Cotillard, of "La Vie en Rose" fame took the stage, according to accounts on Defamer.A video clip of George Clooney in "Michael Clayton," also reportedly caused Sean to have another outburst.
While Julian Schnabel, director of "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly," was speaking onstage, Sean, decked out in a white fur coat, began to heckle Schnabel, reportedly yelling, "Get on with it!" and "Move it on!" referring to his speech, according to a report in Variety.
He replied, "Have another drink, honey!" As if that ever works. How are you going to shame a drunk into shutting up? A drunken Sean Young? It's just not happening. She started running around the place and got escorted out, and may or may not have taken a swing at a security guard.
And I say: Good for her! Every stupid awards show should have a designated Sean Young to keep things from getting too pretentious and dull. Is Sean Penn at the podium droning on and on about whatever it is he drones on and on about? Cue Sean Young! Oh great, the boring montage of everybody who died last year? Empty your glass and sound off, Ms. Young! And so on. Keep at least one camera trained on Sean Young at all times. Ratings gold, I'm telling you.

Why was she even there? Did Mickey Rooney forget to RSVP?

You know, I've never really cared about her one way or the other. But now I'm thinking that she's pretty cool sometimes. Party on, Sean Young.
