Although these days, Bette Midler is hanging with 50 Cent and giving Jennifer Aniston man advice (like ya do), there was a time in our young lives when Bette made us tear up on a regular basis. She was the wind beneath our wings. She was CC Bloom, the character in Beaches who had us crying the ugly cry as she said farewell to her cancer-ridden friend. Throughout the ninties, homegirl just kept tugging on our heart strings with that super-toothy grin on her face. Her most memorable moment might have been her Johnny Carson serenade. On Carson's last show, the Divine Miss M sang the perfect tribute to send him off.
Now our time with The Remote Island is coming to an end. And though we're no Johnny, we still want to hear Bette sing her sweet little goodbye.
