[Corsaire]

I guess my point is not so much that she was timid and fragile; the more specific point is that MF had no particular talent for showbiz and that she had no vision of her own. JD attested to that and I would say that all evidence point to the fact that MF was basically LB’s puppet. Every single trick that was used to create the MF concept came from LB’s universe and he was at it from a very early age. All the topics that were exploited by him before he even met MF were reused to create the persona.

I will not deny that MF developed a certain talent and that she worked hard to get where she is, but people should give LB some credit; he basically gave her a career and a persona and she ran with it. Let me put it this way: I am pretty certain that if my grandpa had been coached and molded by LB, he would have been an international superstar.
