...familiar feeling. Six years ago this past weekend, just after the Super Bowl, Hillary Rodham Clinton held up her head with the velvet band, nodded like Nancy Reagan in her mother-of-the-bride sea-green outfit and saved her husband's dying presidential candidacy on 60 Minutes. Choosing his words carefully, Bill denied he had had a "12-year affair" with Gennifer Flowers; Hillary's expression of faith in him was far more persuasive than his answers; and Clinton went on to victory. To those who wondered why she didn't walk away then, and hasn't since...
...thing isn't marrying the adopted daughter of his ex-lover--we were prepped for that long before WOODY ALLEN and SOON-YI PREVIN wed in Venice over Christmas. No, the dangerous part is trying to make her an actress. Allen is writing an off-Broadway show for his bride. According to the New York Post, while this type of move worked well with past loves Louise Lasser, Diane Keaton and Mia Farrow, they had the advantage of being actresses. Soon-Yi, on the other hand, may be traveling down the bumpy road taken by Tom Arnold. "He likes...
...uproar over the guy who left his intended bride in the lurch [ESSAY, Dec. 8], we must note that this nonevent was not an ordinary wedding. It was a megabuck marriage right up there with a corporate takeover. Perhaps the wayward groom decided that the cost of trading in his Porsche for a Ferrari was too high.

When she finds the right man, she can mold him into her very...
...show's finest performances, though, is arguably not comic at all: Katisha, the ferocious would-be bride of Nanki-Poo, is played with both delicious villainy and a surprisingly subtle range of emotions by Tuesday Rupp. Bloodthirsty and terrified of her own encroaching old age, Katisha first appears in a cloud of smoke and an attitude that brings to mind Cruella de Ville. But, playing Gilbert and Sullivan's somewhat enigmatic character to the hilt, Rupp injects a disturbing and note of tragedy into the entire latter half of the play; in the complex weave of The Mikado, this cast...
...paradigm? Diana, Princess of Wales. Last week's jilted bride, Nicole Contos, followed the essential outlines of Diana's example. The script: 1)The man (Prince Charles, or Tasos Michael) is a rotten, unfeeling, abusive cad, and inflicts a humiliation upon a naive and innocently hopeful young woman. 2)Instead of a Havisham withdrawal, however, the young woman goes vividly public with her trauma and plays the story out in the media, turning her shame not only into triumph but into revenge. Thus Nicole paraded her drama all over national television last week. Broken dreams make you a star...
