It’s official: Ruth Bader Ginsburg is our new favorite person.
On Friday, Ruth explained why she was caught snoozin’ at President Barack Obama‘s January 20 State of the Union address.

While we originally thought the Supreme Court Justice was just super tired from ya know, doing stuff for the government, it turns out she had sipped a little too much wine before the big event.
Yes, RBG was… DRUNK!
The 81-year-old revealed:
“The audience for the most part is awake, because they’re bobbing up and down, and we sit there, stone-faced, sober judges. But we’re not, at least I wasn’t, 100 percent sober.”
OMG. Tell us MORE.
Ginsburg added:
“Before we went to the State of the Union, Justice Kennedy brought in…it was an Opus something or other, very fine California wine, and I vowed this year, just sparkling water, stay away from the wine, but in the end, the dinner was so delicious, it needed wine.”
Ah, the intoxicating powers of wine… we know it well.
We say live and let live! It’s okay to get your party on every once in a while, even if you’re a Supreme Court Justice!
Good for you, Ruth!
