Bo Copley, a coal miner in West Virginia, says most people in his state won't "lose sleep" over the actress's comments. He also responds to Sen. Joe Manchin's latest move to reject Biden's spending bill.
After Bette Midler faced criticism about her appearance, the 77-year-old confessed she got plastic surgery.
As the "Hocus Pocus" star received the Distinguished Collaborator Award at the annual Costume Designers Guild Awards, Midler admitted she underwent cosmetic procedures.

Her celebrity friends also attended the gala, including Cate Blanchett, Angela Bassett and Christina Ricci, who won the spotlight award. "Elvis" star Austin Butler was also in attendance.
Although Midler candidly spoke out about getting plastic surgery, she has previously confessed to thinking about going under the knife.
In 2008, the actress told "Extra" that she was contemplating getting work done.
"Doesn’t everybody consider it?" she said.
"When it really starts to cave in, I probably will start to give it a real good think."

The sequel takes place nearly 30 years after the original film and brings back Midler, Najimy and Parker as the famous trio. However, Omri Katz, Vinessa Shaw and Thora Birch, who were main characters in the first film, were not involved.
According to the film's director, Anne Fletcher, the reason for their absence was because the characters didn't fit into the plot of the new movie.
