Bitch Wars
October 22, 2008
Girl sh-t is the best sh-t, right? It's even worse in Hollywood,
especially when so many of them are fighting for everything: headlines,
attention, and ultimately the work.
This is about the work. And the power plays they pull to get the work over their competitors.
Bitch
#1 has been backstabbing for a while starting a few years ago when she
was vying over a then-coveted role in a major blockbuster with lucrative
potential. They'd narrowed it down to two and the studio had pretty
much decided on the better actress. The contract was about to be signed
but when B1 found out, she had her agent and her publicist publicly
release confirmation that SHE landed the part, and even though it was an
outright lie, it embarrassed her competitor so badly that her team
pulled her back from accepting the offer leaving the film's producers
with only one remaining choice.
Now she has a new opponent. And a
more formidable one. The two were both in talks for a prestige project, a
tug of war battle going back and forth. Bitch #2 launched the first
offensive. She started circulating that B1 was struggling with her
acting coach and had already fired two of them, studying with a third.
When B1 found out she retaliated by circulating rumours that B2's assets
were surgically enhanced and that she was a terror to work with, making
crews miserable on a regular basis.
B2 has now struck back with
the lowest blow yet. At a business lunch the other day, she made sure to
drop details about B1's relationship: that it's in trouble, that's
she's an emotional wreck and is prone to self harming and is trying to
save her love by getting pregnant.
It's getting uglier and uglier and B1 is out for blood. Stay tuned...
Lainey revealed this and Jessica Alba and Jessica Biel.
