Poor, poor Lizzie Grubman!

She had to ride the bus!!! :eek: :eek: :eek: :eek:

Oh what kind of world are we living in when snotty, no-talented, overpriviledge millionaire brats are forced to take public transportation to their fabulous elitist events. It’s so…so common!

Bee-yatch!

She bothers me. She’s snotty, spoiled and rich, but on top of that she looks funny. Yes, I know I shouldn’t dislike someone because they look funny, but I do and she does. So there.

Lizzie who?

I **thought ** I had seen reports of her hobnobbing amongst the celebrity elite but couldn’t believe they were forgive her after what she did.

I thought maybe she was mandated to ride the bus because of that but I guess not.

Lizzie Grubman is a NY socialite, daughter of a successful P.R. flack (Lizzie became a P.R. person herself by basically piggybacking off her daddy’s business). She is most famous for throwing a hissy fit at a Hamptons nightclub when told by the bouncer to move her SUV. She called the bouncer “white trash” and proceeded to back her SUV right into a dozen or so people who were waiting in line to get into the club. The club’s manager (her ex-boyfriend) conveniently whisked her away from the scene so that she didn’t have to be subjected to a breathalyser.

To be fair, she did spend six months in a country-club prison for reckless endangerment. Yet she still acts as if she were aristocracy, the level of say Paris Hilton & co.

So she’s a nobody?

Check the dateline. Any chance this is a whoosh? I mean, the driver would not take their dollar?

Lizzie Grubman took an axe… okay, a SUV. Then backed up into 30 people at high speed.

Then she became an even more famous publicist.

She ought to be a nobody, except that she gets lots of ink in NY tabloids and moves in all the “right” circles, and thus is mistaken for somebody of consequence. When Lizzie was on trial for her nightclub debacle, luminaries of no less caliber than Martha Stewart were leaping to her defense (of course, this all happened long before Stewart’s own legal mishap.) But maybe it’s just the NY tabloids that obsess about her. (Like Paris Hilton herself.)

As far as not having to pay the fare, I assume that they just didn’t have exact change and the bus-driver felt charitable enough to let them go w/o the fare. (That has happened to me on occasion, even here in hard-nosed NYC). But can’t say definitely.

Never heard of her. I doubt anyone outside New York City recognizes her, so why would she worry about being seen in Miami?

Art, don’t fight my ignorance of Lizzie Grubman! Let me enjoy it, for 'tis bliss.

Unfortunately, she has a TV show on MTV now. It’s called Powergirls, and it’s about her and her employees.

Also: Grubman? Grubman??

:smiley:

A girl after my own heart. That’s what I was thinking too, Grubman? Totally incongruous and dorky sounding name for some rich society girl.
