The Kennedy Center has dropped the family who made the Honors medallions for 47 years and who were the definition of a family business. @janaykingsberry.bsky.social spoke to them (and I offered some meager assistance). Take a look: washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...
KenCen handed the job to Tiffany, owned by LVMH. LVMH made last year’s Olympic medals, and they have had to replace at least 100 of them because they rusted. Does anyone else remember this?
Did they refuse to put Trump's face on them?
I hate trump!
Bet they get rid of the rainbow ribbon.
Just wait: Trump will announce a new medallion featuring his image or name.
Maybe copies featuring gold spray paint will be peddled on television, $29.95, a valuable keepsake.
OMG! Where's the barf emoji when you need it! 🤮
f' these f'in' f's !!!
No doubt Trump will have them made in China now?
C'mon, can't have rainbow ribbons and so very little gold. Clearly the Trump Center Honors require a giant gold medallion with Trump's likeness, something Mr. T could wear made by whatever company provided the proper $attention$ to Trump to win the "honor" of making the new beautiful medallion.
The article says Tiffanys.
Trump dishonours everyone and everything that is honourable and lavishes praise on those who deserve our disgust!
i am truly surprised that ANYBODY works with or for the Kennedy Center once DT took it over
Trump is just a straight up asshole. There's absolutely no need for this!
Anyone who watches this year should be shunned
From now on, it’s the Trump-Epstein Center, at least until the sex-abuser-in-chief is dead or otherwise out of office.
He’s going to outsource it to China🤦🏻♀️
You didn’t hear? Donnie Jr., Eric and Barron will be making new medallions out of crypto coins!
I'll bet the new ones don't have rainbow-colored ribbons.
Probably red, white and blue.
Because this is a priority? RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES. UNREDACTED.
I knew they were gonna get rid of the rainbow colors. I just knew it.
If Tiffany has any sense of honor and humor, they would create strings of puckering anuses. Just like Darth Syphilis' maw.
So the new medallions with have Trump's face on them?
At least we will be able to tell them apart easily from the real ones. “Oh you have the temu medal, good for you”
Tiffany?!?!? Of Course! 🤮
OFFS
To be clear, the Grateful Dead were not making the medallions 🤣
Holy shit....I can't imagine the two hour video of Mickey pontificating on how he assembles them by hand.....but in reality some other guy does most of the work
I wish they'd never let Mickey rejoin the band. They were so much more nimble with just Billy
Billy agrees.
They probably weren’t garish enough
So fake awards.
So many people will be owed repurations in the the Second Reclaimation of the U.S.. Not just those stilled owed now.
📌
Paywall to Washington Post is a no for me , sorry
Good old American jeweler Tiffany & Co. is now owned by French mega-luxury goods company LVMH, whose CEO is among the wealthiest people on earth... Remind me again who the new head honcho at the Kennedy Center is? Oh...right...
Trump ruins EVERYTHING!
ETTD
This place should just shut die until post-Trump years. Fuck dump
Because Trump wants to make the medallions look tacky and trailer trashy.
Is there a Things Remembered near the Kennedy Center?
