owlmylove:FRIENDLY FUCKIN’ REMINDER: WHAT WE CALL “THE TONY AWARDS” WAS ORIGINALLY “THE ANTOINETTE PERRY AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN THEATRE”, NAMED AFTER THE CO-FOUNDER AND CHAIRWOMAN OF THE AMERICAN THEATRE WING.THE AWARDS FOR ACTRESSES WERE ORIGINALLY SILVER COMPACTS, BUT SOMEONE DECIDED THIS WAS TOO EFFEMINATE AND SLAPPED THE COMPACT’S DESIGN IN THE MIDDLE OF OUR MODERN AWARD- THAT SPINNY SILVER MEDALLION WAS ORIGINALLY USED FOR CHECKING LIPSTICK.ANOTHER REMINDER: I KNEW NONE OF THIS UNTIL TODAY. DON’T TOLERATE FEMALE ERASURE. REMEMBER HER NAME. ANTOINETTE FUCKING PERRY. -- source link
