This may not be the fame she sought, but the world is getting to know a bit more about her, flaws & all. The Zelda reference resonated. She seems in many ways larger than life, iconic in ways, yet in others totally empathetic. When some of her past ...indiscretions... with all that 80s stuff... were described, I began to think ...if she were a man, and instead of the Richard Gere & the Dalai Lama she had found a televangelist & JC, she might just have what it takes to be president. :)
Isn't she living the American Dream? Living large, taking risks, and picking yourself up, learning from your mistakes and moving on? I hope for her sake, the media spotlight moves on & she can become yet another pop-culture footnote and get on with her life. However, hers is such a fascinating story, it may be a while.
