Does Jamie Lee Curtis think George Bush is a bit of a villain?
The actress took some digs at a not-bright American president while out promoting her new movie “Freaky Friday.” The comments came when the actress was asked about the possibility of a sequel to her 1994 hit “True Lies.”
“‘True Lies 2’ will never get made. Never happen. You know why? I found out why. Because terrorists aren’t funny anymore. They never were, but it was distant enough from our psyche that we could make it funny. It’ll never be funny again.” Curtis said the project was set to go before 9/11, but after the attack, it fell apart.
When asked if an alternate villain might be used in the film, Curtis replied, “Unless they come up with some sort of businessman, make it about Republican businessmen who are evil, and then, you know, then we can make it. Maybe they’ll make it about...I know, an American presidency, with kind of, I know, and we’ll have the guy not be so bright, oh, that’s great!”
Curtis’ spokesman confirmed that “True Lies 2” had been in pre-production, but was dropped after Sept. 11. When asked about her remarks on an American president, the spokesman said, “I’m not going to comment on that. She doesn’t say ‘Bush’ anywhere in that. Let’s not jump to conclusions and let’s not fantasize here. . . .She didn’t name names.” MSNBC
Freepers showed up in SD to freep the beast in LaJolla where she signed 900 books. Here is the link
While she signed 900 books, only 800 some folks showed up. Shoot, there were many more folks at the del Mar track on Sat. standing in line to have Gary Stevens sign Seabiscuit mugs, lol.
Also, note in the article that the Freepers sign "Liar, Liar Pantsuit on Fire" got mentioned. Alas, Hillary was so rushed she could only allot six seconds per customer for chit chat etc. Some of those misguided book purchasers had stood in line since midnight the night before....but all they got was 6 seconds with Her Majesty...
