Tori Spelling's Woes

I read today that Tori Spelling had planned a really nice tribute to her father Aaron, to air on ABC this fall. Several stars of his past shows had already taped interviews and Tori was working to produce the show when Mommy Dearest (Candy Spelling) pulled the plug. According to the report, she wouldn't release any of the clips from shows like Dynasty and The Love Boat once she heard Tori was involved in the project.

If you ask me, I do feel sorry for Tori. You know it was hard to grow up in a house like that with a father who basically knew everybody and a mother who has shown herself to be pretty controlling. So Tori goes out and starts her own show this year on VH1 which completely makes fun of herself and manages to have a few smallish barbs directed at her family, and Mommy Dearest goes even more wackoo. Keeps her from the funeral, releases awful statements to the press, gets involved in Tori's tribute. Someone died....a father, a husband, and a great tv producer. How about focusing on that instead of being petty.
