One of my favorite places in Hollywood turned 90 years old today. The Grauman's Chinese Theater, which often houses premieres and events, opened on this day in 1927, so its centennial is just ten years away. It's currently known as the TCL Theater and was called the Mann Theater before that but it's still popularly known as Grauman's. You can rename something as perks for modern corporations but sometimes the original name hangs around (as well as it should). Don't even get me started on beautiful Broadway theaters chucking their iconic stage giant names for "American Airlines Theater" or whatnot. DO NOT GET ME STARTED.
The Grauman's most familiar pop culture aspect is its large collection of cement tiles out front bearing the handprints of movie stars from all eras. So it's time for a Beauty Break. Which of these ceremonies after the jump do you most wish you had been at?
Marilyn Monroe and Jane Russell for Gentlemen Prefer Blondes
Julie Andrews
Sandra Bullock
Gloria Swanson
Oscar's most beloved costume designer Edith Head
YA cement handed mania with the casts of Hunger Games and Twilight
Shirley Maclaine and Jack Lemmon for Irma La Douce
Mickey & Judy, the most popular teen stars of their day
our beloved Natalie Wood
Liz & Rock for "Giant"
Dwayne Johnson
and we saved Meryl Streep for last!
