Ugh. People who brag about line jumping annoy me.

Seriously. She sounds like one of those people who pulls the "do you know who I am?" stunt.
Tell me, who are you? And why should it matter? Just because your ego tells you you're different and special from everyone else doesn't mean you actually are. You're selfish. That's a dime a dozen trait.

Yes, it's a shame. I don't mind the old school diva thing, but she doesn't have a high enough profile to pull it off. She may not be D-list but she's not far from it. While a lot of the reason for that has nothing to do with her abilities, getting too big for your britches too soon doesn't win anyone over in an industry that's more about politics and playing the game than about talent. She should have a conversation with Katherine Heigl about that subject.

I get where she's coming from but the line jumping and complaining that wait staff don't recognize her is embarrassing.
She does look beautiful in those tv spots for that campy looking movie she's in with Idris Elba.

The new Queen of Primetime needs a bump up! Love her on Empire and I hope she gets some nice hardware come next awards season.

Wow, reading back a few pages, this is one self-important cow. Bragging about jumping queues and disrespecting the people around you is not an admirable trait. I hope she pulls that shit in front of the wrong kind of crowd, then she won't need to rely on Housewives for a knock-down fight. Ugly person.

She certainly is working that Joan Collins angle... As someone who watches Person of Interest even now, I'm glad she's getting the attention for which she's been due.

I have said something similar, joking around, but if anyone overheard it they might think I was serious. I wish I could hear the tone in which she said it to know.
