“Girls like it when you nickname them something smaller than a bread box. Chickadee. Pat of Butter. Baby Mouse. This makes us feel tiny and adorable. Space Heater and Minivan do not.”

March is National Women’s History Month, and we’re celebrating by sharing a lady we admire each weekday.
GILDA RADNER (1946-1989)
She strides across the stage trailing that impossible cloud of wild curly hair behind her. She stops, smiles sweetly, and sings, “Let’s talk dirty to the animals.” Or she’s Rosanne Rosanna Dana reading a viewer’s question: “I have a question about breastfeeding. Do I have to keep my breast in the refrigerator between feedings?” As Baba Wawa might say, Gilda Radner was a “wiving wegend,” adding just enough absurdity to the most mundane situations to make her a star on “Saturday Night Live,” and to fill concert halls.
Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady’s relationship didn’t start off on the right foot. Shortly after the two got together, Brady’s ex, Bridget Moynahan, announced she was pregnant with his baby. But Brady and Bundchen soldiered on, and got married in February. Here’s what she has to say about playing stepmother to John Edward Thomas Moynahan:
“I understand that he has a mom, and I respect that, but to me it’s not like because somebody else delivered him, that’s not my child. I feel it is, 100 percent. I want him to have a great relationship with his mom, because that’s important, but I love him the same way as if he were mine. I already feel like he’s my son, from the first day.”

Speaking of changing names, here’s a name change maybe we all can agree on. Self-obsessed Kanye West recently told Complex Magazine he’s changing his name to Martin Louis the King Jr. to embody MLK Jr. and his favorite label, Louis Vuitton. He demands everyone address him as such, but no one would blame you if you decide to call his Highness a “royal” pain in the ass instead. Along with the name change, he says he’s doing “crazy, bold stuff so [the public] can live through me and get their mind off the recession.” I don’t know about you, but every time I play “Love Lockdown,” I totally forget I’m under-employed and can’t afford decent health insurance.
