I’d agree with you if Bette didn’t have a history of slut-shaming and criticizing younger women. Bette is successful. Had an incredible career. That doesn’t mean she can’t be a hypocrite and hater. She is coming off more as an out of touch has been than an insightful and thoughtful artist.

“...she’s just telling Kim, we’ve seen that before, show us something we haven’t seen.”

But who cares? Lots of people get completely naked and make a living off of getting completely naked. Is there something all of a sudden wrong with making a living off of ones own body?

I don’t understand Midler’s comment though. It has a completely false premise. Kim didn’t post a nude selfie to show something we haven’t seen before.
