I wish she'd won the Oscar too. She deserved it. She was amazing in Nashville. Lily is such a versatile performer it's almost natural that she would have 3 of the BIG 4.

think she has the Mark Twain Kennedy Center Prize for humor,,maybe someday she will receive a kennedy center Honor

Yes she does have the Mark Twain award. I have a copy of the ceremony of it that was aired on PBS in 2003.

I think she should receive the Kennedy Center Honor too! That may be awhile though. I guess we'll just have to stayed tuned.
