James Franco talking about Carl Wilson talking about Celine Dion + The Colbert Report! + CBC3! + Public Viewing of Colbert!
By wavelength ~ Posted Sunday, March 1st 2009
We at Wavelength are big fans of local music writer Carl Wilson and his 33 1/3 book about Celine Dion entitled Let's Talk About Love, A Journey to the End of Taste. It's nice to see it get blogged about, buzzed about, name dropped and what have you. Well when asked about guilty pleasures on the Oscar red carpet, Franco plugs Wilson's book. Respect.
After a bit of digging, we were able to find the clip on YouTube.
