I have only one such recollection and it is actually an odd televised one. It was the Tonys, and she had won that night for "Woman of the Year." Some entertainment reporter (I can't recall who, a woman) shoved a mic in her face on the way out and said, "How did it feel to win tonight?" to which she answered (I paraphrase), "Well, you must be surprised since you predicted Chita Rivera would win for 'Bring Back Birdie'!" That seemed like such a classless moment--as a colleague of mine says, a sore loser is one thing, but a sore winner is much worse!
