CAROL CHANNING: IM A PROSTITUTE
CAROL CHANNING: IM A PROSTITUTE
PALM SPRINGS, Calif. (Wireless Flash) Stage actress Carol Channing has a shocking confession to make: Ive been prostituting myself since the fourth grade. The 80-year-old Hello Dolly star explains shes been prostituting herself her entire career, because in her words I always make love to the audience. Channings candid comment may seem out of character, but she says shes had a lot of time to reflect on her career recently: Shes spent the last six weeks recovering from a spill which left her with a fractured elbow, chipped shoulder and broken ribs. Now, Channing says shes feeling better every day, but a nagging cough has kept her sore ribs from healing. However, Channing says the show must go on, and on January 28 she will make her first public appearance since her accident: Presenting a Lifetime Achievement Award to fellow thespian Isabel Stevenson in New York.
