Note to Donald Sterling, Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber: May is “National Manners Month.” The ladies of rightorrude.com are on a mission to make civility more mandatory — even for just 31 days.
“We’re better than the bad behavior we put up with on a daily basis,” says co-founder Carole Delouvrier. “Sit up straight and spit out that gum,” adds her cohort Jeannie Pearman.
The trio dish on raucous celebrity faux paus on their Web site, named George Clooney Politest Celebrity. They also offer etiquette advice on topics like sex in public in a series of YouTube Webisodes.
And about some of those famous faces? Pearman describes the Clippers owner as “beyond rude,” and says, “The most polite thing we can do with Donald Sterling is not talk about him at all.” Too late?
