Carla Bruni Thinks She’s Jackie
In the new issue of Vanity Fair, French first lady Carla Bruni says she welcomes being compared to Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis. Bruni, who is married to President Nicolas Sarkozy, says, “[Jackie] was so young and modern, and of course unconsciously I would project myself more like Jackie Kennedy than, for instance, Madame de Gaulle, who would be much more like the classical French woman behind her husband.” Dear Carla: We Americans knew Jackie Kennedy. Jackie Kennedy was a friend of ours. Carla, you’re no Jackie Kennedy!
