MIDLER: 'HOLLYWOOD IS SEXIST'

BETTE MIDLER has accused Hollywood of sexism, insisting there are no movie roles for middle-aged women like her.
Midler has made just three movies in nine years, and blames misogynistic studio chiefs for pushing older actress out of the industry.
The entertainer tells NYPost.com's PopWrap blog, "The roles just aren't coming down the way they used to. But that's true for women in general, they're just not. I'm so old I can remember when women ruled the screen, and it's kind of terrible now.
"I'm just happy they haven't been able to upload me as a human being yet and I can still work live. That seems to be my saving grace."
