Jerry’s going wacko, too. If you criticize his wife, you must be nuts! You found four unusual recipes that were almost identical in the two books? You’re out to get him!

Seinfeld blasts wife’s plagiarism accuser as a ‘wacko’
31/10/2007 – 17:04:21
(…)
In a comic rant on America’s The Late Show on Monday, Seinfeld said: “One of the fun facts of celebrity life is that wackos will wait in the woodwork to pop out at certain moments to inject a little adrenaline.
“If you’re any good as a woodwork wacko, you’re patient. You pick your moment and then you spring out and go wacko.
“There’s another woman who had another cookbook, and it was a similar kind of thing. My wife never saw the book, read the book, never used the book.
But the books came out at the same time.
“So this woman says, ‘I sense this could be wacko moment,’ so she comes out and accuses my wife.
“So now my wife is accused of a Watergate-style break-in at Harper Collins (publisher).”

Just continue to shake my head and wonder at the popularity of Oprah, Brittney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson, etc….
Our collective maturity level in the U.S. must be around 12 years old.

I don’t understand why Jessica is buying Oprah shoes? Doesn’t Oprah make enough money to buy her own shoes?
I love Seinfeld, the comedy. It is truly a great comic success. But the more I hear about Jerry and his wife — Oy!! Bad midot.
By the way folks, if the first book was not yet published, then how would Jessica have seen it in order to plagiarize it? Was it published already? I am confused on this point. I am wondering if the publishing house that refused the original writer’s book and then later lapped after Jessica’s book may have had something to do with this “plagiarism.” They are the only link between the two books (unless the first one had gotten published elsewhere in the interim and Jessica had opportunity to see it).

No I don’t think it’s the people that contuines to make them popular. It’s the death buster media that contuines to make them popular by forcing them down our throats in the supposed name of what a “relevant” female should be.
They force us to look at these tramps as goddess, and they’re suppose to be “hawt” and such. The tramps fit no such qualities.
Oprah is so 1990 that most of my ethcity don’t even give a shit about her.
