September Vanity Fair: Don't call her Judi; Judith Giuliani wants to be Queen!

[Bluebear]

....The profile by Judy Bachrach begins with an account of the first anniversary of 9/11 at the World Trade Center site, where Rudy Giuliani was to speak to a crowd including Secretary of State Colin Powell, Gov. George Pataki, Mayor Bloomberg and Sen. Hillary Clinton.

Clinton was standing in the aisle "until she was unceremoniously pushed by a phalanx of four burly cops entering the tent, these guarding Judith Nathan, Giuliani's girlfriend . . . 'The nerve of that woman!' Hillary exploded . . . 'Who does she think she is?' Hillary said to an observer, who later recounted the story."

Judith thinks she's royalty, Bachrach maintains, and that's why she wore a tiara to her wedding at Gracie Mansion in 2003. "She really does see herself as a princess," a former Rudy aide is quoted. "Not as a queen. Queen is her goal. Queen is who she wants to be." And don't call her Judi. Bachrach writes, "After her second divorce, she upgraded herself to 'Judith' with such vehemence that one Rudy aide confides, 'at City Hall we were prohibited from calling her Judi. She would bawl us out if we did.' "

Vanity Fair delves into the circumstances of how Rudy and Judith met. Bachrach claims it was at Club Macanudo in 1999: "It was she who approached Giuliani, who was then married and a father, with words of admiration and a proffered business card."
