LOS ANGELES, Calif. -- Alternative-broadcasting's original talk-show host, Frank Cotolo, was on the red carpet for the Academy Awards on Sunday, Feb. 22. He was noticed by three former neighbors he had when he lived off of Highland Boulevard, which is where the Kodak Theater, home of the Oscar presentation, is located.

"It was definitely him," said Elmer Brockstein, who lived in an apartment on the same block as Cotolo in the '8os. "He had on the same shirt he used to wear when he barbequed in his backyard over there on Citrus Avenue."

"Cotolo, sure, that Wolfman guy with the Honda," said Louise Lernerboyd, who raised her five kids on Citrus Avenue in the '80s. "I was wondering why he wasn't wearing a tux but then again I don't think he lives here anymore because I never see him."

When attempts were made to reach Cotolo for a comment, a spokesperson said, "It wasn't him."

Oscar-nominee Brad Pitt, however, reportedly said to a reporter while being interviewed on the red carptet that he needed to find a way during the ceremonies to "replenish his precious bodily fluids."
