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!
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 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.
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.
