If bitch is the new black, then Anna Wintour is the classic LBD.

Need proof? Check out the outtakes from her interview with Morley Safer for 60 Minutes, where she basically calls anyone bigger than a size 2 fat. As a religious Vogue reader and follower of all news involving the magazines’ Ice Queen-in-Chief, her comments don’t surprise me. But they certainly make me rethink my ultimate career goal: staff writer for the elite fashion mag. I am a human of the thin-skin and thick-behind variety, which would likely put me at the top of Wintour’s hate (um…I mean hit) list. In defense of my thick sisters and brothers, I could resort to name-calling. Well, I guess I already have. But Wintour’s prickliness mainly speaks for itself. And it speaks most loudly to the likes of Oprah, Andre Leon Talley, and, apparently, the entire population of the great state of Minnesota. All of whom Wintour has basically told they are too fat and need to hit the gym.

Is anyone else enraged that this Brit is bad mouthing Americans left and right? Can’t Oprah just order a hit on her? I’m sure she’s got connections.

Only kidding!

I say we extradite Wintour and promote Grace Coddington, a woman with a much more accepting view of individual body shapes, to the top spot at Vogue. At least she’s a woman who’s been known to crack a smile now and then. Currently, there’s no proof Wintour knows how to use her mouth for anything other than frowning and spewing insults. But for now, the bitch is back….and wearing black. And we just have to keep taking her crap and reading her copy. Check her out in the video:
