You most certainly don't have to admire it at all.
Unless your only metric for admiration is the fact that she has made money out of being a fucking awful human being?

see my reply to al
i don't admire her, i think i would have to kill her if i ever met her.

but she has made a very successful living out of doing fuck-all. wouldn't we all like to do that, albeit of course not by writing that sort of shit!

Er, no. I've absolutely no desire to make a successful living out of doing fuck all
or I'd have done it years ago. I like to be able to sleep at night.

hmm.
i certainly wouldn't want her life or career for myself, no.

but... i do have a perverse grudging admiration for someone who can be so openly loathsome that she has made a career out of it! i'm so polite in real life, and can be so paranoid about what people think of me. the fact that she totally doesn't give a fuck, and in fact encourages it, shows a strong belief in herself even if it's totally and utterly misplaced. i think i would like a tiny bit of that confidence.

i wouldn't use it to buy 17 cats though.

Yeah but I'm making fuck all out of being a lovely human being
perhaps if I could make the money she does out of being a raging headwrong, I might give it a try.

each to their own
I'm just saying I don't see why you should have any admiration for someone if all they've done is make some money.
