Tabs is very unhappy with Ryan Gosling this year. A lot of people don’t know this, but Tabs was supposed to play the lead in La La Land, but they gave the role to Ryan. Tabs is pretty sure it was because Ryan showed an aptitude for piano and, lacking opposable thumbs, Tabs didn’t.
So tonight’s the big night! Oscar night.
While Tabs didn’t have the lead, he did still have a part in La La Land. He played Dancing Cat#3 in one of the big routines…
Tabs always looks forward to Oscar night. As you know, he has 17 Academy Awards (more than any other cat actor), but he’s only up for one award this year. He was nominated for Best Cat Actor for his emotional portrayal of a kitten who falls asleep on a milk truck and wakes to find himself in a totally different neighborhood.
There’s some confusion out there because it’s also called Lion and stars many of the same people as the other Lion starring Dev Patel, which is also up for an Academy Award.
Anyway, the one with Tabs is the one we’re rooting for. 🙂
Your friendly neighborhood beauty addicts,
Karen and Tabs
Tabs should have gotten the role in La La Land! They could have used a double for the piano scenes.
Tabs won the oscar in our heart for all his work.
I love the Tabs poster for Lion!!
Our Tabby is the littlest lion. 🙂
The Littlest Lion ~ how adorable!! Enjoy your evening!!
Thank you, Pamela! You too. P.S. I just gave Tabs some major scritches for you. 🙂
Thank you. That makes me happy. One of my little furbabies is very sick, possibly with lymphoma. I’ve been in tears today, so that made me smile.
Pamela, I’m so sorry. Tabs and I will think good thoughts for you and your family. Sending you hugs.
OMG I JUST LOVE THIS POST. No further comments.
You know he was the star of La-Land Land, right? Ryan Gosling was the back-up pick for the lead. LOL!
