Carla Bruni 'is a modern-day Marie Antoinette': French magazine slams First Lady as self-obsessed
Daily Mail ^ | October 29, 2009 | Peter Allen

Posted on 10/29/2009 2:40:56 PM PDT by C19fan

France's leading high society magazine has today produced a devastating portrait of Carla Bruni as the country's new Marie Antoinette. Point de Vue presents the 41-year-old First Lady as a daffy multi-millionaire socialite who does very little real work, and who is completely out of touch with ordinary people. The attack by the Paris weekly, which specialises in covering the lives of aristocrats and European royalty, will come as a huge blow to President Nicolas Sarkozy as he tries to play down his monarchichal style.

I am sure the creative Freepers will come up with some Queen or aristocrat to compare Michelle to.

Self obsessed, but hot, one might add.

I think she resembles Madame Defarge much more than she resembles and aristocrat.

An heiress/former model, self-obsessed? Nah.

I said: “I think she resembles Madame Defarge much more than she resembles and aristocrat.”

I should have specified that I was referring to Michelle, not Carla Bruni.

It also should have been “an aristocrat”, not “and aristocrat.”

Funny how the women that leftists admire very, very seldom have done anything themselves.

Of course, Michelle is an exception. After all she .....well, she....there was that free job where she didn’t do anything, and then she planted some stuff.....and said some very stupid things....and.....and...there’s a pony in here somewhere.

Forget it. In a debate with Michelle Malkin (my Michelle heroine), she’s be sliced, diced, chopped, and minced.

Excellent point. Perhaps the Empress Theodora might fit Mrs. Zero: From Wikipedia:

“Justinian is depicted as cruel, venal, prodigal and incompetent; as for Theodora, the reader is treated to a detailed and titillating portrayal of vulgarity and insatiable lust, combined with shrewish and calculating mean-spiritedness”

Perfect description of the current occupants of the White House!!!

I think given Michelle’s nasty looks at Ms. Bruni she would like to put Carla on the guilloutine.

I have always thought Carla Bruni was an empty-headed, husband-stealing, slut model, but if the French media is trashing her, she’s my new hero.

Do the publishers of France’s leading fashion magazine do a lot of “real work”? I suspect not.

As for Carla, I confess I’d rather gaze at her from a distance than be married to her. Sarkozy has a lot of guts to take her on.
