Entertainmentwise:
Leaders of a Catholic group have responded in anger to news that Britney Spears is in talks to play the Virgin Mary in a satirical movie.
As Entertainmentwise reported this week, a French producer has approached the troubled pop tart to take the lead role in Sweet Baby Jesus, which tells the story of a pregnant 19-year-old who goes into labour alone on Christmas Eve.
We’re not sure that Brit could pass for a teenager these days but still.
Officials at America's Catholic League are apparently appalled that the single mother-of-two is up for the role.
President Bill Donohue tells the New York Daily News, "She is seriously miscast. She would be better suited to play the lead role in a flick called Monica (as in Lewinsky). “
Good to see that Bill has got his finger on the pulse of topical events.
He continues: “If she did, the Catholic League would be delighted to send her a box of cigars."
Perhaps Bill could play Clinton.
