No. Not by a long shot. The phrase goes back at least 100 years before she was even born, perhaps longer.

probably not. BTW phrases are usually coined not invented. And that phrase has been around long before her.

I'm watching a Canadian mini-series called 'Murdoch Murders' ( or maybe Mysteries ) that takes place in Toronto around 1900 and one of the police characters says that all the time.
