Bill Clinton

Monica Lewinsky has been back in the headlines in this, the year of our Lord, 2021. It's not completely surprising nor unreasonable that she's returned to public consciousness and the pop cultural zeitgeist given the current airing of the limited series Impeachment: American Crime Story (on which she is also a producer) and the release of her HBO Max/Crave documentary 15 Minutes of Shame. Shame is something with which Monica is intimately familiar, having gone from private citizen to the world's most infamous intern and perpetual punchline in the blink of an eye after her affair with then-President Bill Clinton was exposed in 1998.
