Ted Bell to Janeane Garofalo: eat in the kitchen!

Speaking on tonight's Phil Hendrie Show, Ted Bell of Ted's of Beverly Hills Steakhouse revealed that former Air America hostess Janeane Garofalo dropped by his establishment to view tonight's Iraq speech from president Bush. And, Ted told her she had to eat in the kitchen instead of being able to eat in the main dining room with Danny Glover, Glenn Close, Susan Sarandon, and other celebrities!

He diplomatically explained to JFo that it wasn't because she was a B-list celeb, but because he was concerned that she wouldn't be as much of an attention getter as Glover and the other stars. She then either left or was asked to leave. Bell somewhat undiplomatically stated that she could walk into the restaurant, walk outside, come back in and vomit on the bar and only until the last happened would anyone notice.

JFo could not be reached for comment.

UPDATE: It's pretty sad the depths JFo's enablers are willing to go to, but it's funny as well. Trying to claim that Ted Bell isn't a real person takes the cake; I've been hearing his commercials on the radio for years, and I'm pretty sure I've seen his restaurant on La Cienega during one of my rare visits to the "Westside".
