Bette Midler Caves, Does Interview with “GMA” Because There Are Lots of Expensive Seats Available for “Hello, Dolly!”

Share

Bette Midler and “Hello, Dolly!” were very arrogant when the Divine Miss M opened in “Hello, Dolly!” She did no interviews, nothing, and her opening night was closed to press.

But now, with two weeks left in the summer, there are dozens of pricey seats available to all performances. Granted, they’re like $600 a pop. But Bette doesn’t want to see chunks of empty seats when she’s twirling around the runway.

So she finally caved in and did an interview with Robin Roberts on “Good Morning America.” Will it help? I think anyone with that kind of dough in on vacay in Capri.
