Today's *Star Wars* pair:
Diva: Queen Amidala
Mensch: Princess Leia
Amidala is concerned about looking high fashion and being grand. In episode two she does a lot of "damsel in distress" business, always the true sign of a diva. And what is with that voice and that mid-Atlantic accent?
Leia, on the other hand, is the leader of the resistance! And in case you think her metal bikini sex slave moment makes her a high fashion damsel in distress, let's not forget that she strangles Jabba the Hut with the chain he was using to keep her captive.
Opinions aside, it was a much appreciated break in my day. THANKS A MILLION!
