Berlusconi's wife attacks his 'trashy' choices of "pieces of costume jewellery" women candidates
Italy's first family soap opera was back on the front pages Wednesday after Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi's wife said his party's selection of women to run in European elections was a "shamelessly trashy" process.

Veronica Berlusconi, who has publicly lamented her husband's eye for younger women in the past, also accused him of going to the birthday bash of an 18-year-old woman in Naples but not attending the coming-of-age-parties of his own children.

Veronica, 52, who rarely appears with her husband, said she agreed with Italian newspapers' descriptions of her husband's party's choice of female candidates as "entertainment for the emperor," in what newspapers saw as a reference to him.
...
"But what's happening today (in Italy) behind a front of bodily curves and female beauty is grave." She added that it offended all women and particularly those who had fought in the "frontline" for women's equality.
