Charlotte Rae (aka Facts of Life's Mrs. Garrett) has, somewhat ill-advisedly, picked a battle with legendary World Catfight Champion Joan Collins. Attending the premiere of the play Legends (by turns a comedy of manners and cautionary tale about the face-melting dangers of plastic surgery addiction), Rae bluntly tells The Insider's cameras that Collins is "a bitch...Everyone says she's an extremely difficult person." It's a stern reprobation delivered with all of her character's trademark tough love—she might just as easily been addressing Tootie's inadvertent bong purchase. And while Collins did succumb to a moment of weakness by calling Rae a "cow," we'd still commend her for refusing to rising to the bait by seeking out the octogenarian shit-talker for one of her trademarked, hair-pulling fights.
