Bette Midler can be aeen on the small screen in the HBO concert special ‘Diva Las Vegas‘ by anyone with cable TV – except her 10-year-old daughter Sophie.
The singer-actress maintains a strict TV ban at home, she says in the Jan. 25 TV Guide.
“I won’t allow It,” Midler said. “I made a pact with myself a long time ago. Never watch anything stupider than you. It’s helped me a lot.”
‘Diva Las Vegas,’ which premiered on HBO Saturday, isn’t the only TV show about her mom that little Sophie seems destined to miss. Midler, 50, has a movie musical project in the works for NBC.
