Let’s see, Betty White is inspired by Sandra Bullock, as is Katherine Heigl, Kathy Griffin, Miley Cyrus, the cast of Jersey Shore, and of course TheFABlife staff, so it’s not a surprise that Elizabeth Edwards, the now ex-wife of former presidential candidate John Edwards, is also getting added to the list.
Unlike the others though, both Elizabeth and Sandy endured the recent devastation and public humiliation of discovering that their husbands were unfaithful, grimy schmucks. During a Today Show interview yesterday Elizabeth, who is battling stage four cancer, told host Matt Lauer how she relates to Sandra’s plea at the MTV Movie Awards for everything to “go back to normal.”
In her first TV interview since her husband of 33 years admitted his sickening antics, she comments about the “incredible” year Sandy has had, saying “yet, the stories you hear are not about all those great successes, but about the failure of her marriage. I thought, that’s not who she is. I don’t know her, but I assume she wants to reclaim who she is in the same way I want to reclaim who I am.”
Waving our Team Elizabeth flags, we think Elizabeth, Sandra and Elin Nordegren should form a gang called “The Tough Cookies.” Stick it to the men, ladies!

I read her book….and gosh you have to be proud of her as a woman, a fighter, a mother. She sure can say she gave life her all….her children her all. Her husband’s a pig of a man. God bless her and she’s in my prayers. Love to her and her kids.
