I, for one, am dismayed at the "Hollywood-ization" of this event. Before Maria Shriver took it over, it was truly a "community" event for the women of California to network, seek out community resources, hear inspiring stories of women we could relate to, not millionaire Hollywood and DC types who can't relate to the frustrations of job-seeking and holding onto your home in this economy. Also, tickets were always made available via community groups for those unable to pay, and the price that was charged was reasonable. Now, those in the middle to upper economic echelons, many from outside CA, gobble up all the tickets just so they can see their favorite stars in person. And where's the DIVERSITY???? The only Hispanic speaker I noticed mentioned was Mario Lopez! Oh yeah, I can sure relate to him! This whole event has turned into a bad joke (or worse yet, "The Maria Shriver Show"...)
