“I may have seen some things in poor taste, but I didn’t detect anybody out to offend the church,” head of New York Catholic diocese says of Monday night event

Wonder where Rihanna scored that bejeweled papal-looking hat for Monday night’s Met Ball celebrating the Costume Institute’s exhibit of Vatican fashion?

Turns out the miter was a loaner — from Cardinal Timothy Dolan, the head of New York’s Roman Catholic diocese.

“The news said she was wearing a tiara,” Dolan said Tuesday in an interview on SiriusXM’s The Catholic Channel, noting that it was in fact a miter of the sort worn by bishops and cardinals on formal liturgical occasions. “She gave it back to me this morning. … She was very gracious.”

Let’s just say Timothy Dolan has been a very odd disappointment as Cardinal Archbishop of New York.

Remember, this guy’s response to Michael Sam’s public announcement of his homosexuality was “Bravo!”.
