* CrossesTheLineTwice: The Chair of Entertainment's predicament. Saying that "she's been in bed all week [[ThatCameOutWrong with the doctor]]" is funny, but forgettable. Scolding the audience for laughing--"She's having a ''horrible'' time!"--makes it hilarious.
* HilariousInHindsight: Her summary of the requirements to become a star opera singer[[note]]from her "First Farewell Concert," 1984[[/note]] was echoed, somewhat less cynically, by the discussion of "star quality" in ''Literature/{{Maskerade}}''[[note]]published 1995[[/note]]. (To be fair to [[BrainlessBeauty Christine]], the last thing anyone would ever accuse her of is being a "backstabbing bitch.")
* TrueArtIsIncomprehensible: Her attitude towards all the Masonic symbolism in ''Theatre/TheMagicFlute''.
* ValuesDissonance: Noting that you don't have to be a genius to be an opera star, "so long as you're not retarded," comes across a little differently now than it did in the 1980s.
