30 Rock's Elaine Stritch Outdivas J.Lo

Step aside, Mariah Carey! You've got nothin' on Elaine Stritch. The New York Post reports that after the Broadway legend appeared on PBS' Theater Talk, rather than thank the show for helping to promote her club gig, she slapped its producers with a $1,000 tab, including expenses for "hair, makeup and limo service, and no doubt anything else she could think to stuff in there," says a source. "It was genius." Theater Talk didn't pony up, but did offer Stritch a PBS tote bag. — Ben Katner
