In certain way she is right about the lesser starlets. Although Sonam looked splendid the press in the UK, esp Dailymail (the one with the highest no. of readers) went gaga over anything Ash wore which also includes that horrible green dress that made her look puffed.
They were absolutely drooling over anything Ash wore, Ash has got that pulling power at least in the UK.
Whereas i didnt see any mention of Sonam in any of the main stream UK press.
The Daily Mail does indeed have a high readership, but they would be the last tabloid to give coverage to a Indian celebrity such as Sonam Kapoor. Aish gets coverage because she is an established name, whom even non-asian brits are aware of due to Miss World, and her cross-over films. Otherwise, Liz Jones and co are not the type to promote foreigners.
Sonam's still technically in the early stages of her career, and as she hasn't done anything to make an impact on non-asian brits, the Daily Mail will not mention her since they don't know who she is! Why would they? Having said that, she's had coverage by the BBC/Guardian and Independent in the past, so eventually you never know.
