No One Before Her



She puts no one before her. She's always first in line.
She only eats haute cuisine.
She drinks the finest wine.
She puts no one before her. She's always center stage.
She only stops for poses.
She graces the front page.
She puts no one before her. She's always a bright star.
She only plays to triumph.
She tops the highest bar.
She puts no one before her. She's always regal queen.
She only acts in lead roles.
She hits the silver screen.
She puts no one before her. She's always limelight fare.
She only seeks big favors.
She shows a selfish flair.
She puts no one before her. She's always number one.
She only wears haute couture.
She bathes nude in the sun.
