Fate’s Fickle Finger

The Oscars! The Emmys! The Grammys! The Andys?

The world may not be ready for the latest award to hit Hollywood, but publicist Stan Rosenfield and writer Bob Levinson are pressing ahead with a different kind of honor.

“It’s named after Andy Warhol, who said that everyone will be famous for 15 minutes,” Rosenfield told us. “What we’re selling is fame and two minutes of dais time. It’s for people who never won anything--the opportunity to correct the oversight of a lifetime.”

Tentatively set for Carlos N Charlie’s on Labor Day weekend, the awards event will be preceded by a formal dinner. “For $25 we provide a bone-a-fide-ee certificate,” said Levinson. “You can have whoever you’d like present it to you, or Stan or myself. You name the category, we’ll even take a picture of you. It’s a wonderful bargain when you put it beside other awards. Shop around, you’ll see.”

The two men said that they’ll be ready to except award applications--and checks--shortly.

Noted Rosenfield, “We’re working on a first-come, first-served basis, and we expect people to use the honor system about their right to their award.”
