E!-rase, please

E! stands for: Egads!

I like most of the Oscar hoop-dee-do, but the red carpet parade isn’t part of it. (“Who are you wearing?” “My cleaning lady.” Now that would be fresh.)

E!’s fawning giddiness is toxic. It’s mike-mauling greeters spoil the lines of worshiped multi-millionaires as if they’re orphan children with self-esteem problems. Thank heavens the celebs get those vaunted goodie bags.

“You know what’s great about these shows?” Ryan Seacrest asked. “It’s live, so you can’t go back!”

We know, we know.
