Britney, NASCAR Deemed "Match Made in Heaven"

Pop-sensation Britney Spears will team up with NASCAR to film a "Days Of Thunder"-style racing film, and potential director Jerry Bruckhimer tells HollywoodPulse.com that it's a perfect match because "both NASCAR racers and Britney Spears look real at first glance, but when you get under the hood you realize they're both just dummy shells of the actual thing."

With Spears popular with 57 percent of the U.S. population, and NASCAR fans making up two-thirds of moviegoers, Bruckheimer called this a no-brainer.

"I'm baffled as to why nobody has thought to pair Britney and NASCAR together until now," he said. "Both appeal to the lowest common denominator, both generate millions of dollars a year, and both wouldn¹t think twice about selling out. It's a match made in heaven"

Bruckheimer anticipates that the movie will make a fortune because the dumb fans to which NASCAR and Spears appeal will see the movie over and over again.

"You can expect a lot of people will come back to see the film multiple times," he said. "First, they're already accustomed to just watching the same car go by again and again, and the plot will require several viewings before our target audience will figure it out. It'll be like 'The Sixth Sense' for rednecks."

First drafts of the screenplay have Spears arriving on the big-league racing scene with the dream of singing the National Anthem at the Daytona 500. The would-be singer catches the eye of a waning star driver, played by Tom Cruise, who teaches her to drive stick shift in the team's back-up car.

NASCAR superstar Jeff Gordon has agreed to drive for the film's requisite racing footage.

"I've seen the car they're going to use, and I can tell you that the TeamPepsi/Chevy Racing/Dr. Magic Plastic Surgery Team has really got it set up. At first she was running real loose, but now she's dialed in and all the guys are just clamoring to take her for a few laps."

It was unclear if Gordon was referring to the race car or Spears. Filming is set to begin next summer.

How many Freepers would pay to see the singer in a NASCAR race car movie?? ;-)

[FreeTally]

Not I.

I know they are making the movie, but this article is a joke, right?

Yep. Check source. :)

[mhking]

Now waitaminit. We're talking about Britney "I'm a virgin" Spears? The same one with the acting ability marginally above Mariah ("Glitter") Carey's?

Yeah. Right.

[galt-jw]

what stimulating fare for those using 1% of their brain....hooooweee!!! them cars shore go around in a circle reel fast.....hooooweeee!!! lookee thar..did you see that girls boobs?

*banjo music*

geez people, elevate yourself, use the mind youve been given for something besides entertainment for dullards and mental masturbation.

What a joke. Jeff Gordon will do anything these days to rid the rumors of his "marital misconduct". His PR people (read: sponsors) are trying desperately to make us believe that he is a perfectly normal heterosexual male. Maybe he is...

[goldstategop]

What cause my eye is this looks like a replay of "Days Of Thunder." It seems Tom Cruise is going to reprise the hot shot driver and Britney who is coming to the NASCAR event to sing the National Anthen, has caught Tom's roving eye. Between the cars zooming down the tracks, the audience can hardly wait for the penultimate love scene. And no Nicole Kidman is not in this movie.

Britney is supposed to play the daughter of a ficticious driver. Thats what all the reports have said.

"would pay to see the singer".....

I'd pay to wash and wax her car, and I'd clean her wooden floors...........as long as we would later spend a night at Wimbledon in a threesome with Anna!

[Always Right]

Tom Cruise would even consider such a movie, but why not the rest? I have seen dumber ideas make millions. More of a plot than Britney's first movie.

[weegee]

They should have used Formula One racing instead. PR boneheads as Compaq insisted that Formula One racing had an annual audience of 50 billion people.

They even stuck by those numbers when they were told that there are less than 6 billion people in the world.

[Intimidator]

Pretty stupid joke dude.

[WindMinstrel]

Look, I don't care WHAT Ms. Spears chooses to do with her free time -- as long as she stops stalking me!. It's getting old, Brittany!

I'd like to extend an open invitation to you - come visit us in the great state of Tennessee (one of last income-tax free states in the union). Share your sophisticated sense of humor with us.

Punk.

[TigerTale]

We really need some pics on this thread...

[Wolfie]

LOL! But they've got the plot wrong. The real movie will feature Britney as the inspiration for a new HANS device based on the build of her, well, you know... Just nestled your head in there and put the pedal to the metal.
