Barbara Walters, half of the most boring celebrity feud of all time, is currently on tour promoting her new autobiography, Audition: A Memoir, and will make a few stops in the Chicago area.
Walters appeared today at a luncheon at the Union League of Chicago, and will also be participating in a cocktails and dinner event courtesy of Winnetka's The Book Stall (call 847-446-8880 for more information). She'll cap her Windy City Tour off by appear tomorrow with another doubleheader: first, a lunchtime signing at the Michigan Ave. Borders, and then an evening reading and signing at Naperville's North Central College.
Babs has been making waves with the revelation of her tryst with the then-married former-U.S. Senator Ed Brooke, the first popularly elected African-American Senator. Walters succeeded in breaking new ground for female journalists on NBC's Today Show, ABC's 20/20, and being the first woman to co-anchor a national news telecast at The ABC Evening News.
Barbara Walters, 12 p.m., Free, Borders at 830 N. Michigan Ave. and 7 p.m., North Central College's Pfeiffer Hall, 310 E. Benton Ave., Naperville, IL, $5 with purchase of book from Anderson's Bookshop (123 W. Jefferson Ave.)

I’m going to boycott Babs’ appearances due to my loyalty to Rosie and Star.
Thanks for making me aware of her Myspace. I totally added her to my friends list and maybe I’ll hook up with her since she’s apparently such a skank.
Barbara Walters has the happy faculty of making "revelations" about people who are dead. Does anyone remember her comments during Gerald Ford's funeral coverage, in which she reported Ford's reaction to his wife Betty's drinking? Nice job, Babs.
I am going to pass, perhaps unless there is someday a Reader's Digest condensed version. But I would be interested in seeing a Baba sex tape, if there is one from the 70s.
Joe Lieberman has proven that old people cannot carry you all the way to the White House. However, Barbara Walters has proven that old people can carry you well past your expiration date.
Best moment ever: Babs with her index finger rested at her chin, some inquisitive look on her face, and, in dead serious fashion, asking Marv Albert: "Do you like rough sex?"
