I've always attributed that to two things: 1) Jill was channeling all the glamorous movie stars she used to read about as a child and how she THOUGHT they behaved; and 2) she had been so beaten down by life, suffering so much heartache - growing up poor and without a father, losing Phillip Sr, being humiliated by Kay and her efforts to invalidate her marriage and her son's paternity, etc. - that she realized, as Dolores Claiborne's employer once said, "Sometimes, being a b***h is all a woman's got to hold onto."
