FOX25s video that purportedly shows JFKs granddaughter Rose Kennedy Schlossberg flipping off the media during the Ted Kennedy motorcade has hit YouTube.
The 38-second clip shows a 20-something girl, who appears to be Caroline Kennedy Schlossbergs daughter Rose, giving the middle finger to the media as she drives by them in a limo during the procession from the Cape to the Kennedy Library.
Apparently, the young lady believed the not-so-subtle salute would be invisible from behind the cars tinted window.
Very classy. . . .
Then they’ve lost their touch. I’m thinking of the Meyer Lansky/Charlie Luciano types, the types that made Las Vegas. Titans of industry, you could say. They created jobs and revenue.
Hell, the world watched the runt son of ‘America’s Bootlegger’ get buried over the weekend...
Exactly - rude arrogance!
Didn’t one of the Bush daughters do this? Or did she stick out her tongue?
I remember the media having a fit over it.
I love it.
“But we’re fawning as best we can. Please don’t be angry at us”.
She’s only 20- the Bush twins were snarky-wild when they were young, too, and both have matured into lovely serious young women.
But I’d take Laura Bush (and Grandma Barbara) as restraining influences rather than the get-away-with-anything Kennedy bunch any day.
I refer to these people as White-collar Trash. They’re the wealthy, power-hungry elite who have no morals, ethics, or true concern for anyone but themselves. They often show you who they are, but most in America — for some odd reason — seem oblivious to it.
That’s a great term! And this is a classic case of where it fits. Thank you.
I’m not sure it’s the media she’s flipping off. This appears to be shot from a helicopter or some building, so how would she know she was being taped? Notice the crowd is clapping as her car passes by, then she flips and then she starts to clap sarcastically. It appears she was flipping off the crowd lining the street.
Surely you are not comparing flipping a bird with sticking out your tongue?
What the article does not mention is that after flipping off the camera person she clapped her hands in the car. Ha-Ha. Big joke.
Not wild and snarky. Low class. Uncouth. Crude. Illiterate. Bet she thinks hers doesn’t stink either.
Being only 20 would explain immaturity, not coarseness. RKS is trash.
There were multiple embarrassing incidents with the Bush twins most I remember underage drinking- all immediately reported by the national press. Chelsea’s drunken binging at Oxford was only covered by the tabloids.
Fact is, a 20 yr old in the public eye can do snotty things- and be totally differnt in 7 years. Hope this girl is.
We don’t know that her parents didn’t give her grief after seeing this, in her Uncle’s funeral motorcade no less. She obviously had little affection for her Uncle Ted, no concern for her mother’s/cousins’ grief, and the bad manners of a careless arrogant young aristocrat.
it will be interesting to see where live takes her..it could go either way. JFK, JR left his fortune to those kids..and Caroline is reported to be worth over 100 million dollars...so a conservative estimate would be 50 million for each kid..and probably much more.
She could do great things..she is pretty, she could grow up to be really something special given that she is the grandaughter of JFK and all the mystique that holds to some people.....
but uh..Kennedy genes..likely she will be a useless waste.
We laughed when Jena book told off the media. Big deal seriously...
We laughed when Jena bush told off the media. Big deal seriously...
At least the Mafia MAKES money!
Uh, no. They’re just the help.
