admin Rachel McAdams had everyone choked up at the Oscars. There wasn’t a dry eye in the house after she honored her late friend Diane Keaton in the award show’s In Memoriam segment.
Rachel told the audience, “Believe me when I say there isn’t an actress of my generation who is not inspired by and enthralled with her absolute singularity.”
She added … “She wore so many hats, literally and figuratively, actress, artist, author, activist, but no hat more important to her than being a mother to her two children. She meant so much to so many of us. I remember she used to sing this old Girl Scout song she used to sing on set, which is just so her: ‘Make new friends, but keep the old. One is silver, and the other is gold. A circle is round, it has no end. That’s how long I’ll be your friend.’ And so to our friend, Diane Keaton, celebrating a life in silver and gold, a legend with no end.”
Remember … Rachel starred alongside Diane in the 2005 rom-com “The Family Stone.”
Diane — a 4-time Academy Award nominee — passed away from pneumonia on October 11. She was 79.
