Hot Slut of The Day!
Robert Opel, the mustached streaker whose hippie dick bush stole the show at the Oscars in 1974!
Usually, one of the only rules I follow when picking a HSOTD is that if they're human, they have to be alive, but I'm breaking that rule again to pay homage to an Oscar legend on this Oscar Sunday. During the 1974 Oscars, the show's co-host David Niven was about to introduce presenter Elizabeth Taylor when a nekkid ass nekkid Robert Opel ran behind him and gave millions of people two eyefuls of his swinging peen and luscious crotch bush. Robert Opel showed the Oscar trophy that it isn't the only one who can be fully naked on stage. David Niven didn't miss one beat and after he got a quick look at Robert's scene-stealing fun parts, he said to the audience, "Well, ladies and gentlemen, that was almost bound to happen... But isn't it fascinating to think that probably the only laugh that man will ever get in his life is by stripping off and showing his shortcomings?"
Robert Opel claimed that he got backstage by pretending to be a journalist. Others think that the producers of the Oscars were regular STUNT QUEENS, because some evidence shows that the whole thing was planned. The show's business manager claims that during rehearsals, David Niven came up with the now famous line and wrote it down on a piece of paper.
After Robert flashed a piece sign and his extra furry piece, he became a semi-celebrity. Famous people hired his ass (and peen) to make an appearance at their parties. Robert would streak at parties for a check. Robert used some of his streaking money to open up a gay male art studio in San Francisco in the late 1970s called Fey-Way-Studios. Two robbers killed Robert in 1979 while trying to rob his studio.
Robert is gone, but the memory of his Oscar night nalgas show lives on forever! And I hope the producers keep Robert's legacy alive tonight. Tonight's shit show might be over 4 hours long, so I hope those bitches make it worth our while by giving us a streak show or ten (starring Ryan Gosling, B. Coop, Hugh JackMeOff, Jamie Foxx, etc...).


Planned or not, it was funny. The streaker & David Niven are co-HSOTD.
The Academy Awards would almost be watchable if the host(anyone) was able to be really honest and let loose. It's always over-manipulated to protect the enormous concentration of egos in the room. In other words, it's a shitty room to work if you're a comedian.
Stunt.
The '70s were the transitional period between the wild, free '60s and the selfish, brain-dead '80s. So you had people acting wild and free, but for empty, money-making reasons.

Walking on a Dream
I'm sure David adlibbed that line, actors train for that. Too bad Robert's gone but at least he still holds the title of best Oscar moment for many. He kinda looks like TommyGirl circa Born on the Fourth of July, no?

Ahhhhhh, yes. Mooning.
I may or may not have instigated a mass mooning at a rural country bonfire when I was in my early twenties. At the stroke of midnight, we all (about 30 of us) lined up along the shoulder of the highway. First car by got quite the eyeful. And yes. Beer was involved.
***********************************************
I always heard about this. That was funny. Yeah Streaking was a fad that died out quick. Another one that was my generation was "mooning". It was guys pulling down their pants and bending over to flash their butts at you. Very offensive.
Ah the 70's...
One of the nicest moments at the oscars is when Vinge Rhames won and gave it to Jack Lemmon I was a kid when it happened does anyone recall this ?
I hope Lincoln sweeps the golden statuettes and by that I mean especially that Sally field wins for best supporting actress against she who shall not be named.
Mabel hodges - I'm with you I'd lve to see SBC streak across the stage at the show.

There's a weird, weird documentary about Robert Opel done by his nephew (who, for reasons not explained, is barechested most of the time that he's on-camera).
Robert's killers were never caught, btw.

I don't care what anyone does. Nothing could ever make the Oscars interesting.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Hold up, now. If they let BloHan host, I'd totally watch because it would destroy whatever is left of her career and it would be highly entertaining.

@ Weezy - I worked at DQ and that was one of the "flashers". Not exactly flashing, but we were cleaning picnic tables when a guy drove up and asked for directions to a local lake. I walked to the to the car, looked in, and he was naked-ass naked, lol.

Love David Niven. I think he gives it away because he pauses and stumbles over his words a little before Opel runs out on stage. You have to figure that at least he (and maybe a select group of others) knew what was about to happen. It's hilarious all the same.

I would LOVE it if SBC streaked tonight!
I was a little kid in Texas tor the original streaking incident. God it was such a big thing...and the Streak song and everything.
Love,

I'm going to karaoke tonight instead. But I'll be mad if something like this happens and I miss it.
RIP Robert Opel - not a way anyone would want to go.
yes and everybody had a sense of humor back then - imagine this happening today. poor nekkid guy would be arrested, grilled to find out who put him up to it and tossed in the clink for months.
the Oscars are boring as shit now and are nothing but a fucking fashion show to hype designers the rest of us couldn't touch with a ten-foot schlong. for the majority of people, we watch and go, "who the fuck is that?" since so many of these new mongrels are so generic, you can barely tell one from another.

The only one who is ballsy enough (no pun intended, not that I know anyway) to attempt this again is Sacha Baron Cohen.
I don't even know how Seth McFarlane will do this year. He's made a living through F-bombs, ganja, abortion and AIDS jokes. Rumor has it he used to sell pot to support himself through college.

"If TommyGirl gets to announce Best Picture AGAIN I'll wretch"
What is with that! Really, could they have someone that actually won and Oscar.
Check out the Tom Hanks video. Paul Newman (swoon) and young Tommy Lee Jones and Sally Fields. I forgot John Travolta was nominated.
This is minor compared to tonight's rare appearance of international super star John Revolting, who is only seven years away from his gender-bent triumph in "Hairspray" and twelve years since anything associated with a leading role.
David Niven's autobiography "The Moon is a Balloon" is a great read. Class act.
Well I hope I'm home to catch the final hour where in the good old days we got Best Supporting and Best A and A and Best Picture and you didn't care about the first two hours. If TommyGirl gets to announce Best Picture AGAIN I'll wretch, he's done it two consecutive years and is probably the only bitch with "If I don't get that one I'm not coming......"
Even though I was a little bitty, I remember this. We lived in England at the time, so I probably saw it on the news, but I remember my mm making a big deal about it.
Notice that Nivens rubs his ear--he is lying; he knew about this beforehand.
Nothing good like that happens anymore.
Did anyone watch the Richard Pryor video that shows up after the Niven video. Funny stuff.

In high school one of my friends worked at Dairy Queen and it had one of those drive thrus with no speakerbox, you just drove up to the window and ordered. Some guy drove up to the window yanking it.
Meh, pancake ass.
Ummmm MK, please add Matt Boner to your streaker candidates list.

I've borne witness to 2 streakers and 3 flashers, one who was yanking it. Good times.
agirl, maybe, but wouldn't he have seen it on the monitors? On live shows the people onstage can see themselves. Meh. Still, his reaction was funny. Then again, what do I know? I wasn't even a year old when this happened.

Well I think it was staged. DN did not seem really surprised, and his response seemed prepared.

That's how he was. Cool, calm and collected.

To me it seemed as if he didn't even look around enough to see what was happening.
A more shocking moment was Vanessa Redgrave's "thank you for not being intimidated by Zionist hoodlums" acceptance speech. Or Streisand in the 60s accepting in a chiffon pants suit where you could clearly see she was going commando for the night and she always claimed "I didn't think it would be that see-through until I got under those lights."
David Niven is a hot bitch though.
Oh, I remember this and the look on my Grandma's face.
