Nicole Avant, our new ambassador to the Bahamas. At least she'll be out of the country and won't have to watch the fall of capitalism.
Some of President Obama’s biggest Hollywood financial supporters are packing their bags and heading off to become ambassadors. This despite the fact that their only previous diplomatic experience may have been spending a night in Hollywood’s Ambassador Hotel.
But that matters not if there were enough zeroes on the check you contributed to the President’s campaign coffers.
Music industry heiress Nicole Avant will represent us in the Bahamas. Wild Brain CEO Charles Rivkin gets France.
Avant is the daughter of longtime Bill and Hillary Clinton friend Clarence Avant and the sister of Democratic activist Alex Avant. She was the first in her family to break away and endorse Obama. Her experience for the ambassadorship includes being the daughter of the former chairman of Motown Records, bundling $500,000 for Obama’s campaign, and playing Protestor #2 in a 2004 film called “First Daughter.”
Why stop there, President Obama? There are lots of other Hollywood types itching to be ambassadors.
Rob Reiner. Barbara Streisand. Alec Baldwin. They all said they’d leave the country if Bush got elected, but didn’t. If a little ambassadorship is all it takes to get them out, we say it’s a small price to pay.
