Queen of Nice?
Tim Blair posts an interesting anecdote about Rosie O'Donnell.
I suppose this is as good a time as any to do a mini-rant about how many celebrities think that society's rules of behavior (sometimes called "manners") don't apply to them. First Janet & Justin and now Rosie, not to mention Kobe Bryant and the former NBA what's-his-name whose trial for shooting his driver started today. If those people had any sense of what most of us regard as acceptable behavior, they wouldn't be in trouble at all. Of course, so long as an adoring public excuses such behavior and continues to patronize the spoiled brats, nothing will change.
