Our recent Gold Derby poll results show that either Meryl Streep or Cicely Tyson should be the next actress to receive the life achievement award from the Screen Actors Guild.
Since it’s been three men in a row for the most recent ceremonies, we only offered 10 actresses in our poll. Streep and Tyson were the only two ladies with double digit support. All of them have two things in common with typical decisions by this committee: at least 70 years old with a history of charitable and/or humanitarian works.

When President Obama took to the stage at a Beverly Hilton ballroom on May 27, 2009, to raise money for the Democratic National Committee, it was a victory lap of sorts for the 250 studio executives, directors and stars who had paid $15,200 apiece to dine on kabachi ravioli as they listened to their newly elected leader.
"If it weren't for you, we would not be in the White House," the president told DreamWorks Animation chief Jeffrey Katzenberg, going on to recognize the deep pockets of other showbiz contributors who had put millions into his campaign coffers.
Tonight, a little more than a year later, Obama arrives in Hollywood again to meet and greet industry heavy hitters. This time, the feelings of many in the crowd are more complicated. Obama has faced criticism from the left about unfulfilled campaign promises ranging from the closure of Gitmo to the repeal of Don't Ask, Don't Tell.
