Rita Ragone Has Influential Friends

Be advised, Woody Paige; if you think that you're going to steamroll Rita Ragone in this sexual harrassment lawsuit due to your celebrity status, think again. Ms. Ragone, Stylist to the Stars, has some powerful friends. According to her web site, not only is Stephen A. Smith in her corner, but she also counts The Great Throwdini as a personal friend. So unless Woody is friends with The Amazing Throwgali, he had better watch it.

Among other "friends/clients" are Joe Montana, Walter Payton, Joe Namath and Marv Albert. Plus, she has a blog! Well, there's only one post, and it's not exactly intimidating; but just wait until she gets rolling!
