Not too long ago, the Weekly took Bette Midler out to the Double Down, plied her with ass juice and bacon martinis, and tried to get her to spill the dirt on her erstwhile piano partner Barry Manilow. Instead of answering our questions, Miss M slapped us before joining that night's punk band for a rousing version of "The Rose." With our ears still ringing, we present this list.
13 No. 1 Billboard hit singles
23 Episode number of Angel in which David Boreanaz sings "Mandy"
22 Manilow's age when he wrote to Playboy seeking career advice
18 sold-out months for Copacabana in London's West End
0 months for Copacabana on New York City's Broadway
30 dollars for valet service at the Copacabana Club in New York
3 Playboy interviews in which Manilow is cited in negative ways
65,000,000 records sold
4 hours Manilow was unconscious when he broke his nose
1,600 seats in the Hilton Theater
750 dollars eBay bid for two tickets to Manilow's March 5 show, Section 2, Row L-11
