V. Stiviano, LA Clippers owner Donald Sterling’s mistress, went on 20-20 last night. V. Stiviano tried to defend Sterling but dropped this line during her interview with Barbara Walters,

“I think he was brought up to believe those things. Segregation, whites and blacks, minorities, from black Jews, to light Jews, to dark Jews… He feels very alone, not truly supported by those around him. Tormented, emotionally traumatized… I love him like a father figure.” She continued, “I’m Mr. Sterling’s everything. I’m his confidant, his best friend, his silly rabbit.”

For his part, Donald Sterling told ESPN, “I wish I had just paid her off.”
