Julie Burchill confronts the green-eyed monster while reading the Sundays

Miaow. Julie Burchill is not impressed by Camille Paglia saying Rihanna is “the New Diana” in the Sunday Times. “Half of me is envious that she is doing the sort of big, splashy, well-paid pieces I used to do in the 80/90s,” she posted on Facebook today. “The other half thinks she is an ocean-going half-wit who only put the two together as their names sound similar.”
