I think I like Judy Sheindlin (which is her husband’s last name, anyway) more when interviewed on Larry King than on her own, insipid show. Sarah Silverman pointed out just this kind of self-hatred among people with ethnic names (in these cases Jewish) when she had a show within her show wherein they renamed her Sarah Saint Clair. I’m always a little miffed when people drop anything that could be construed as ethnic to achieve what they perceive to be better mainstream popularity. Indeed, when Sarah was on the View the other day, she was asked about her Jewishness by Joy Behar and Sarah said, “I can’t help it, it just oozes out of my pores.”

Barbra participates in We Are the World 2 (for Haiti)
Thrilled to see my Barbra featured in We are the World 2, but miffed at false rumors that she was the only soloist who sang her part sang her part in a sound room alone. That simply isn’t true and anyone who looks at the video all the way through can see that.

Funny Girl at the Ziegfield
In 2002, my friend Joe Doyle and I went to see Barbra’s re-release of Funny Girl (more than 30 years after it’s first release) at the Ziegfeld Theater in Manhattan.
