OOPS!
Bette Midler’s bad, folks.
The legendary singer and actress Tweeted this week about the challenge women face in society (amidst debate over confirming Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court because he may have committed sexual assault) when she likely went way too far.
In what sense?
What did people say about it?
And what did she say as an apology?
Who is Bette Midler?
