Take Roseanne, please, says Bette Midler
Bette Midler holds most big name female humor up in high regard, except for Roseanne Barr.
“I’m sorry, but I don’t think she’s funny,” Midler says in a published report. “I think she’s crass.”
But she describes Tracey Ullman as “brilliant – witty beyond belief” and Carol Burnett at “very, very classy. Whoopi Goldberg is described as “gifted” and “genuine” in her own work.”
Midler herself has wrapped up filming a new Paul Mazursky picture with co-star Woody Allen. She plays a therapist anxious about the onset of her 16th wedding anniversary.
