Donna Karan’s a Nurse Now, Y’all

 
June 10th, 2009

In case you were curious about what Ms. Karan has been up to, I’m here to tell you. According to WWD, Donna Karan was awarded an honorary nursing diploma from the Phillips Beth Israel School of Nursing in New York. I’m assuming because of her various ties and ongoing devotion to cancer charities (Urban Zen Foundation is one), as well as her own personal tragedy with the death of her husband from lung cancer. That being said, I respect the gesture. It’s just a gesture, right?

But what if it wasn’t? I mean, there’s a nursing shortage in the US. So, you know what? Let’s just start awarding total randoms nursing diplomas, and they can start practicing. And you know who we should choose? Donna Karan! Maybe she’ll redesign the uniforms! Weeeee!

I mean – come on – while seeing her clean up a bedpan would be priceless, I wouldn’t trust her with a Cabbage Patch Kid much less an aging parent. Am I the only one that finds this absolute BS?

  1. Don’t allow her in a hospital; she’ll eat all of the stem cells.

  2. i’m with bede dede. in fact, i wouldn’t let her near the newborn nursery, either. there’d be a sudden upswing in baby disappearances in disturbing conjunction with the release of her new NYCougar Night collection of skincare products… and super-smooth leather handbag line.
