Every Meryl Streep Oscar Win, Ranked

When Bruce Springsteen fans used to go and see him in concert, they were there for Springsteen, sure, but equally legendary on stage was the singer's lead saxophonist, the late Clarence Clemons. Before Clemons passed away in 2011, he was able to get even more cheering for his presence and sax solos than Springsteen himself was. Anyone who went to such concerts or has heard recordings of them might be familiar with Springsteen calling out, right near the end of introducing his band, "Do I even need to say his name?", at which point the crowd roars, because no, Springsteen doesn't have to. Everyone knows Clarence Clemons. Everyone was there again, sure, for Springsteen, but also for Clemons. Some people are big enough that a boring introduction is either not needed, or might well run the risk of underselling them. So, as with Clemons, when it comes to discussing an award-winning actress like the one about to be discussed... well, does one even need to speak her name?
