Like, on movie sets she would hand people "mute stones" and they wouldn't be allowed to talk to her until she took them back. Or how she wouldn't go to Cambodia for the charity she does work for unless they bought her a first-class ticket. Some poor non-profit had to shell out $25,000 round trip for her to fly first class. That would feed a lot of orphans in Africa!<br /><br />And, without having met her, there's tons of evidence in her own words of what a huge ego she has. For example, she addressed the National Press Club, I think it was, and as anybody does when they're about to give a speech, she said "Hello ladies and gentleman" or something like that. Which in these circumstances is just a standard opener, nobody says hello back. But Miss Thang was upset that the audience didn't respond. So she informed them in a smug schoolmarm tone that she was a southern girl, and where she came from if people say hello to you, you're supposed to say hello back. Then she actually said, "Take Two. H-E-L-L-O everybody..." then paused and glared at the audience who, like good little boys and girls, all chanted "Hello." Grown men and women!<br /><br />And then there was her appearance on Craig Ferguson where she managed to mention in the first 30 seconds that her book was on the NYT bestseller list (while pretending to be modest and saying in the next sentence that she doesn't pay attention to these things, she just worries about doing the "next good right thing")... and I just love how she namedrops Harvard all the time and talks about "graduate school" and "my alma mater" (and she's not referring to the University of Kentucky). It's beyond pretentious. My ex-boyfriend - no rocket scientist - got the same degree at Harvard that she did - a Mid-Career Master of Public Administration (MC MPA). It's a one-year degree with a 50% admission rate, the easiest program at Harvard to get into, basically a way for rich people to buy themselves a vanity degree from Harvard. My friends and I with *real* Ivy League degrees call it Harvard Lite. Not to be confused with the two year MPA which is a much more rigorous program with a 20% admission rate. <br /><br />And you gotta listen to her on some radio game show on NPR while she was doing her 9 months at Harvard. Within the first minute she manages to mention that she addressed the UN, and it's SOOO obvious she's bragging but she thinks she's being all subtle bringing it up, she says "I feel more nervous about being on your show than when I addressed the General Assembly of the United Nations." Gah, could she be any more obvious about shoehorning her resume into a completely unrelated context? She was on the radio show to answer three multiple choice current events questions, and on the first one she turned to her "cohort" in the audience (fellow students she had dragged along for moral support) and asked them what they thought. They indicated the correct answer, at which point the host actually called her out for cheating. Mind you, he had been kissing her A$$ and flattering her up to that point, but even he had to draw the line somewhere I guess! So then she picked the correct answer and says "Because I was leaning that way anyway." <br /><br />And what I also loathe about her is how she thrusts herself into the forefront at Indy races. When her husband won the Indy 500 last week she posed with the trophy and the winner's wreath around her neck. Then she tweeted a photo of herself chugging the winner's bottle of milk. Really inappropriate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-90526801444566274072012-06-05T10:09:49.269-07:002012-06-05T10:09:49.269-07:00May not seem like much, but they out-bid Madonna f...May not seem like much, but they out-bid Madonna for it. <br />I checked further on: Rednock House/Scotland - quite the estate.

The highest grossing, best-reviewed films she's been in, she was a supporting player at best, and for the most part that was in the mid-to-late 1990's. She headlined a few potboiler FBI thriller type movies around then too, and granted, those were modest hits. Then in 2004 she starred in Twisted, which was the worst-reviewed film in all of 2004, with a rottentomatoes.com rating of 2% - 133 out of 135 critics panned it.<br /><br />As for "Flypaper," it showed on exactly two screens and grossed a whopping $1,100 in theatrical release before disappearing.<br /><br />Dolphin Tale? It was an ensemble cast and the kid and the dolphin were the true stars. She played one of those 40-something mother roles that a gazillion other actresses could have played as well or better. I can't think of a single film she has been in, where you think "Only Ashley Judd could play that role" - in fact, they would have been as good or better if another actress had played her part.<br /><br />Now she's back on TV - oh wait, no she isn't. Her latest series was canceled after 10 episodes.<br /><br />She was quoted in a magazine interview in 2005 talking about how she got seated at the wrong table at some Hollywood banquet, and when she was "rescued" and relocated to a table with other "stars" she said that she had been restored to her "place in the pantheon." As in the temple to the GODS? <br /><br />She's not just a washed-up B-list actress, she's a washed-up B-list actress with delusions of grandeur - the worst kind of narcissist!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-42376296972686357902012-06-04T20:23:21.995-07:002012-06-04T20:23:21.995-07:00StPaulSnowman,

It's definitely not a ducal pile (Chatsworth and others of that ilk are far, far larger. It looks like it was built to be the home of a minor gentry family. It's even too modest to have been the home of a proper lord. <br /><br />As for the kitchen - dining room placement, it's left over from the days of servants. Many large houses in Britain on this scale and even bigger still have long distances between the two rooms. Most families with such houses will only use their dining room a few times a year and spend the rest of the time in a room off the kitchen or in the kitchen itself. <br /><br />As for the interiors, it is a wee bit sterile but Scotland is a dark country and the light interiors would be refreshing on a dark, dreary rainy day.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10295578997809611422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7179311615101890268.post-5886230717186551262012-06-01T00:06:07.119-07:002012-06-01T00:06:07.119-07:00" ... this is Scotland, not Beverly Hills.
