In 2011, the legendary Meryl Streep was honored with the prestigious Kennedy Center Honors, a testament to her remarkable contributions to the performing arts. The ceremony was introduced by the talented Tracey Ullman, who set the stage for a night filled with heartfelt tributes. Among those who spoke in honor of Streep were esteemed actors Robert De Niro, a 2009 Kennedy Center Honoree, and Mike Nichols, who received the honor in 2003. The event also featured tributes from fellow actors Kevin Kline, Emily Blunt, Stanley Tucci, and Anne Hathaway, all of whom celebrated Streep's extraordinary career and impact on the film industry. The evening culminated in a touching performance by the entire cast, who sang 'She's My Pal,' a clever homage to the song 'He's My Pal' from the film Ironweed.
