Here is the beautiful, talented, lovely, gracious, amazing and mind-blowing awesome Meryl Streep on the red carpet last night for The Fantastic Mr. Fox. Meryl was wearing “her own” Prada dress, and she looks gorgeous, doesn’t she? I love that color on her. I love how Meryl has been showing off her cleavage a lot lately - it seems like every red carpet she’s been on lately, she’s been showing off her girls. If she was thirty years younger, it would be trashy. But for Meryl, it’s just awesome.
On the red carpet, Meryl didn’t talk to most of the assembled reporters, but she did stop to talk to one. The “reporter” was a 9-year-old girl from Scholastic, and Page Six details how great Meryl was to the girl:
Meryl Streep passed by most of the red carpet reporters at the premiere of the animated “Fantastic Mr. Fox” at Bergdorf Goodman, but stopped to talk to Grace McManus, 9, from Scholastic, who asked about the difference between voicing a character and playing a character. The Oscar winner said, “That’s the most sophisticated question that anyone in this entire press line has asked me. Really, really good.” Grace, who had school the next day, skipped the after-party.

At the film’s after-party, Meryl spoke to the NY Post’s Cindy Adams, who asked Meryl what possessed her to voice a cartoon fox (married to a George Clooney-voiced Mr. Fox). Meryl’s answer was typical, basically saying that she did the voice work because she’s awesome and they sent her to Paris. Meryl says: “Well, the chance to work with [director] Wes Anderson and the chance to fly to Paris, where I did my work, with some extra recording done in Connecticut. When I did my lines, Wes played the other character speaking back to me, which helps give a feel for the action. Very important because reactions and the way your body moves defines your voice. So when I was working, George was on some of the tracks and Wes on some.”
In one other piece of Meryl-related news, word around the Oscar race is that Meryl is actually going to participate in some sort of late campaign for her role as Julia Child in Julie & Julia. Allegedly, Meryl is going to do some big magazine interviews, and she’s asked to do some photo shoots with her Julie & Julia director Nora Ephron. Some sources claim that she actually wants to put her heart into it, and try to get that third Oscar (which would be her first in, like, 27 years).
Here’s the trailer for The Fantastic Mr. Fox:
