I had to think back to my own '20s. I had the combination of "knowing it all" and being very vocal about knowing it all. The funny thing, 30 years later, is that I don't know it all anymore.
I don't see any particular talent with regard to Ms. Marcotte. Maybe just a lack of empathy with regard to others, a desire to continue on her high-school clique personality and first and foremost a craving for attention.
She'll get it if she craves it. But in that sense I don't see much difference between her and Anna Nicole Smith. If her juvenile fans start falling off, she may well be in front of your local city hall, turning cartwheels with no underwear under her skirt.
