Jill Biden is a “Heated Rivalry” fan.

So much so that the former First Lady, just minutes ago during the live auction at the NYC LGBT Community Center’s Center Dinner, bid $35,000 to have a walk-on role in the queer hockey series’ second season along with a dinner with the cast, according to sources.

However, she was outbid. The package ending up selling twice to two bidders at $125,000 each.
