he says "Well, I'm a queen, bitch, so I outrank you. now put your damn tray up!"
Oh just admit that was you on the plane.

There was a story that when Ronnie Ray-gun first ran for Governor of California he was door knocking. He knocked on the one door, and when the guy answered his wife screamed out, "Who is it?"

Ronnie asked "I'm running for Governor. Don't you know who I am?" - "No", came the reply.

"I used to be in the movies" - "Sorry".

"My wife was in the movies, too" - "Still nothing".

"My initials are 'R R'" - "Hey Honey, Roy Rogers and Dale Evans are running for Governor".

I think Trigger would have made a better Governor.

I've worked at a few different places on the Las Vegas strip and have had my fair share of pretentious "celebrities". You expect someone like Barbara Streisand to be extremely unpleasant but Rachael Ray? Bitch, please.

*snort* The Raytard was a bitch? That's funny. I could see that, I guess...
Is her voice as annoying and obnoxious in real life as it is on TV?

My few retail celebrity encounters have been nice. My favorite was Ben Kingsley - he was shopping for Halloween stuff at the store I worked at and didn't bring in his ID. The clerk didn't want to sell him the stuff. What was hysterical was that the store was owned by a Hindu family from India. The guy couldn't have been nicer and never said, "I played Gandhi, people!" (I wanted to, but that might not have gone over well.)

well get a load of this. my heart is broken. the love of my life, Paula Deen, is in town tomorrow to sign her new cookbook. they have listed rules in the paper. no personal autographs or pictures.

why the f*ck not?! I mean, this woman has made it b/c of her fans. she was scraping by...ok, not going to give the whole story...but she should welcome anything. all you get is her signing her name in her book and that's only for the first 500. bull****.

i've heard this many times, from people in the biz and out. she is especially rude to women. inferiority complex much? she needs to check it before she wrecks her career.

I've met a lot of famous people because of my job. More often than not, they're totally cool (last week Tyrese sat down on my desk to show me pictures of the new Transformers from the movie next summer on his Sidekick!). I think it's really hilarious that the absolute rudest, bitchiest, most entitled people I've met in four years of this are the members of the most popular female gospel group in the country.
