Women on women can be vicious but isn't Kate a bit too innocuous to receive so much so soon?
Are women still the fairer sex? Maybe not after figuring how to build a brand as well as any man.
Speaking of, Tina Brown took about two secs to take aim from a higher vantage point. A brilliant zeitgeist her arrow aims for highbrow, threatens to land low, eventually settling on the nobrow bulls-eye. I think Tina's a modern day version of Clair Booth Luce. Luce, the woman behind, alongside the man at Time. Gore Vidal used to muse something like, 'if clever Clair could of landed her calculating hands on a cool billion she'd have been our first female president'. Gore respected Clair, enjoyed her company, a savage, conservative tonge, dangerous with a phrase and seductive, very, very seductive.
All these media divas, far more interesting than Murdoch and so beautiful to boot, especially the Dresden doll that was Claire. I did think Tina's criticism of Diana hung precariously close to jealousy, seeming to resent Diana's ability to control the media so adroitly. Tina's analysis became catty, betrayed her intellect, "all she does is get blonder and more bronzed." One might be tempted to ask, "et tu Tina?
In regards to Kate's future Tina is filled to the brim with foreboding. Though impressed Kate was able to finally reign Wils in, even if it took 10 long years of floating a trial balloon full of enough discretion to convince Mama she's not Diana, she fears Kate's life is now going to get even more boring than before.
They seem such a modern couple, Kate's well put together, wants Wils and he wants her. Once the drama of their wedding comes to pass she may want nothing more than to sit in their secluded home in Wales and write, read, chat and create the next heir and spare.
Not everyone craves the kind of busy behavior that eliminate the ability to bare witness through any lens but the white light variety. Not everyone wants to be Tina. Kate and Williams' marriage will become an ordeal sooner than most, so let's just hope they keep up the romance and the negotiations at a minimum like any other modern relationship.
Kate's suffered 10 yrs of the waity Kate game, let's give her some good wishes, ironically, she'll need 'em more than most.
