Monica Lewinsky Blogs For Vanity Fair About “Orange Is the New Black”

Share

You have to hand it to Vanity Fair. They’ve found a great traffic baiter for their website: Monica Lewinsky. She’s apparently become a full time blogger for VF.com. (Isn’t this a bit of a swipe at the Clintons? Now she’ll never go away!)

Her first essay is on “Orange is the New Black.”

On occasion it crosses my mind that I too was once threatened with being locked up—by prosecutors involved in the investigation of 1998. (Oh, that pesky investigation.) At one point during intense negotiation, one of the lawyers defending me said, in confidence, “You better think carefully on this, Monica, or you’ll find yourself in an orange jumpsuit.”

“Orange,” I remarked, “is not my color.” (Don’t ever let it be said I am without gallows humor.)
