Meghan McCain Gets What She Wants And She Wants Hillary Duff
Meghan McCain demands the “really hot” Hillary Duff to play her in the movie about her life, Lindsay Lohan is paid big bucks to party, Farrah is laid to rest, Michael Jackson’s photographer speaks and Courtney Love suffers from malnutrition.
- Lindsay Lohan, America’s favourite walking Petri dish of human social disease, has been celebrating her birthday for weeks now it seems, but this weekend is finally the official birthday party, and she’s being paid $US70,000 to host a party for herself at the MGM Grand in Vegas. [Page Six]
- Meghan McCain’s sure to be shitty book isn’t even out yet but she’s already laying it down that she wants Hillary Duff to play her in the movie Hollywood makes out of the book because she’s “really hot.” Oh, and she wants Bradley Cooper to be in it to because he’s “so hot.” Meghan McCain is Paris Hilton. [Gatecrasher]
- Farrah Fawcett was laid to rest yesterday. Her former Charlie’s Angels co-stars turned out and her son Redmond was released from jail for the funeral. [Sun]
- The photographer who took the photos of Michael Jackson on stage during his last rehearsal says that Michael felt reborn and energised to be on stage again and performed for an hour and a half without a glitch. [Mirror]
- Creepy old lizard Larry King refuses to fly on commercial planes. Instead he gets around by private jet, which is probably a good thing, because who’d want to sit next to Larry King on a cross-country flight? [Page Six]
- Courtney Love’s doctors have diagnosed her with having malnutrition and basically told her that she needs to get some meat and potatoes in her or she’s going to die. [Mirror]
- Fox is really desperate to hold on to Simon Cowell for the next season of American Idol. So much so that they’re offering him $US144 million bucks, 4 times the $US36 million he made last season, to stick around. [Daily Mail]
- Some British billionaire’s wife had to be carried out of Guy Ritchie’s pub after she partied the night away with young buck Justin Timberlake. Jessica Biel was not reported to be around. [Daily Mail]

@irishflyesq: I really wish people would realise she's way out of her league once she steps outside her house each morning. Someone please explain to me why anyone is listening to her. Also: a movie of her life?! Wouldn't she have to have a life, first?

@ShanghaiLil: It would be great if he did own the franchise, then if he could fire himself, both he and AI would go away, and the world would be a better place. Failing that, I'd pay serious money to see Posh Spice as a judge. Except Anna Wintour wouldn't like it, so, not likely to happen.

@uncivily obedient: And some underpants.

@GeraldineHyperion: That was painful. I felt for her, she was WAY out of her league. And Bill really went easy on her.

@FormerEnglishMajor: I can be condescending and mimic a British accent like nobody's business. Two talents I am especially proud of.
Oy, Guvnah, I'd rather have a footballah kick me in the bollucks with steel-toed boots, than have you squeal that bloody Rick Astley tune any longah! Now, begone, ya bloddy daft chav!

@FormerEnglishMajor: I must be confusing it with one of the "X's Got Talent" or some other stupid franchise. And yeah, that guy really sounds like an asshat.

Oddly I took it on faith that Meghan McCain was smart. Then I saw her last week on Real Time with Bill Maher. Wow. Why didn't her father just go ahead and choose HER to be his running mate since he was obviously donating the spot to Adopt-A-Bimbo.
@bowel_and_the_obstructors:
+ Watch video
@rajmahall: Alison.
OBVIOUSLY Megan McCain should be played by Elisha Cuthbert. I don't even know why we're discussing this.
I'd go for Allison Pill, myself. Not because we look alike, but because I'm confident that she could convey my depths, and just once I'd like to be fucking Canadian, damnit.
@The Curse of Millhaven AND bmoreDLJ: I've been saying that for a long time now, but no one else has been able to see the resemblance. THANK YOU.
MissPeacock
Meghan McCain is much worse than Paris Hilton. The biggest difference is that Meghan is stupid, but thinks and acts like she is really smart, while Paris is smart, but thinks and acts like she is really stupid. Both are spoiled and annoying, so at least there's that.
FaceMelter
I see Meghan M. as more of a Hayden Panettiere. Or maybe she could be animated like Roger Rabbit.
@bmoreDLJ: From the moment I first saw Col. Tigh there, I have thought he was the perfect actor to play McCain. He is not quite creepy enough, but otherwise perfect.
@Anthony_Underscore: Hi, Larry. Long time flier, first-time assaulter here.
@The_Rodge: You're using Page 7 as a birdcage liner.

@Helennellieforsythe: The guns are half the fun!
@jobsworth: Oh, and better beer.
We have the same stupid firework accidents though. So far today, my little sister and her friend have drunkenly singed their hair.
@jobsworth: Hush! It's a thing! It's like your fourth of July!!! Only sooner! And with fewer guns! And we omit the blue fireworks.
@DahlELama: "Sorry" is pretty good too. Canadia is like bizarro America.
@bmoreDLJ: How did he get his eye back?
@DahlELama: Try 'sorry', which is actually pronounced soar(like a bird)-ree, not 'sari' like the Indian dress. Hillbillies!

@The_Rodge: Because you live under a rock.

Why have I never heard anyone say Justin "Trousersnake" Timberlake before?!!!

@Helennellieforsythe: Canada Day? You guys are so cute.

I can't wait for the Megan McCain movie. It's going on my Netflix queue right after the Katherine Harris biopic starring Shannen Doherty.
@ShanghaiLil: No, a company called CkX owns all the Idol franchises, and it's run by Robert Sillerman, the nasty douche who used to run SFX the concert promoters.
[ir.ckx.com]
Years ago at a meeting, he told me he changed his name to Robert FX Sillerman, with the "FX" standing for "F***'ing Excellent". He re-defined pompous.
@jobsworth: Just ask one from each to say "pasta." It'll all become clear.
DahlELama
Megan McCain is swiftly becoming the Paris Hilton of the Republican party. Did anyone see her on Politically Incorrect last week? I laughed until I cringed.
GeraldineHyperion
I'm seeing a slight resemblance to that other Duff sister. Perhaps she can free up some time in her schedule to play Meghan.
AnneofAndover
@bmoreDLJ: How dare you slander our accents on Canada day! We sound delightful!
@secretagentman: Is this the wrong place to admit that I can't tell the difference between the two accents?
jobsworth
@FormerEnglishMajor: I'm pretty sure that he owns the AI franchise, and thence, where Simon goes, so goeth AI.

@uncivily obedient: Or $5 tucked into a card.

@bmoreDLJ: We don't have accents, it's you that has the accent!
secretagentman
Well, we all know who's playing her dad...although he'll have to lose the Canadianian accent:
@ChillbearLatrigue: Does Meghan have 4-inch-long teeth, like Duff?
Anthony_Underscore
@ChillbearLatrigue: play*
Sorry, people. I'm just warming up.
I'd like Jon Hamm to pay me if they make a movie about me. Not because he looks anything like me at all, but because he's a handsome dude and thats who I want everyone to visualize when they think of me...if that ever happens.
I wonder if Meghan has a mirror in her house that makes her look like Hillary Duff?
Courtney Love being malnourished is NEWS? Next thing you'll tell me is that she does drugs.

@Awesome X: If I saw Larry King on a flight, the first thing I'd think is, "Oh shit, we'll be diverting for a medical emergency."
irishflyesq
Sitting next to Larry King on an airplane:
"If the in-flight movie stars Sandra Bullock, I am definitely watching it."
"You know who I hope is flying this plane? That Sully guy. Now THAT is an American hero."
"So sorry to hear about Billy Mays. He was one of the greatest pitchmen ever, and a really great guy."
"Look at this bag of peanuts. It's barely enough for Chance."
"That situation in Honduras...crazy, huh?"
"I don't care what people think, I find the Skymall catalog a great read."

@blix: In the words of the Coug, Ain't that America?

I guess Biel truly is burdened by being so hot. She is so incredibly smoking, JT has to seek comfort elsewhere.

Simon Cowell is worth $144 million? They can't find someone else to spew insults, regardless of the on-stage talent, that are researched beforehand and have all the spontaneity of a space shuttle launch? Please.
That dress is not flattering.
/Jezebel moment
@Awesome X: I think it's the serial farting in a pressurized environment that they're worried about.
Lohan may be paid $70,000 to host her own birthday party at the MGM Grand, but her grandmother is still only getting her a pair of socks.
uncivily obedient
Aw, Larry King would be a fine to sit next to on a plane; all his questions would be flattering, super-easy to answer and never invasive.
Awesome X
