Stargazing | Spice Girls doc depends on Posh; Kirsten Dunst gets dirty
But will she smile?
Heads-up, closeted Spice Girls fans. There could be a documentary coming your way. But its all up to The One Who Must Never Be Photographed With a Smile.British producers want to make a warts and all documentary about the girl group to coincide with the launch of the Spice Girls theatrical musical, Viva Forever, opening in December.With worldwide sales of over 75 million, they defined a generation. But their full story has never been told, a source tells British media. Producers want to spend time getting to know each of the girls and let viewers feel theyve got the real insight into their lives."The film would include one-on-one interviews with Mel B, Geri Halliwell, Emma Bunton and Mel C. But if Victoria Beckham says no, producers say the project is off.Dirty DunstJames Marsden doesnt kiss and tell. Or does he?He talks about getting in touch with Kirsten Dunsts raunchy side in Bachelorette, a movie about three women spending a sex-filled, pre-wedding weekend.James plays one of the grooms friends who has a quick romp with Kirsten in a strip club.Those are always daunting scenes when you see them on the schedule. Youre counting the days, he says. Kirsten was like, Come on, whatever. Lets have fun doing it and lets go for it.James, 38, who is eight years older than Kirsten, says he couldnt stop thinking of her as the little girl in Interview With a Vampire.Dont think that didnt cross my mind when we were on a bathroom counter in some random bar in New York, he says. But shes as cool a chick as it gets. Once I knew Kirsten was game, it was much easier to do the scene.The endThe Rock Bottom Remainders, the band of wannabe-rock-star authors that includes Stephen King, is hanging it up.Weve gotten as good as were ever going to get, says lead guitarist and humor writer Dave Barry. You cant get any be! tter. We ll, you actually can get a lot better. But we cant get any better. Were up to almost four chords now, and the Beatles quit at that point, Im pretty sure.The Rock Bottom Remainders, which also includes Amy Tan, Scott Turow, Mitch Albom and Roy Blount Jr., will perform two last shows in Southern California later this month.The groups founder and lead singer, book publicist Kathi Goldmark, died last month. She persuaded the authors to join the band as she drove them around on book tours over the years. We sort of felt this would be a good time to end it because it just isnt going to be the same without Kathi, says Dave.Santorum a vampire?True Blood creator Alan Ball shares the inspiration for Christopher Melonis character, a deranged bloodsucker who runs the Vampire Authority.In an interview with The Wrap, Ball says the Republican primaries got his creative juices flowing for the new season.For me the jumping-off point was watching the Republican primaries, watching Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, and asking what would it be like to have a theocracy in America which is way more terrifying than any fictional monster could ever be, he says.OK, what is a vampire theocracy? You dont really see vampires being religious creatures. They are excluded from God. But what if there was a vampire bible? A religion? Theocracy?And thats how Rick Santorum became a blood-sucking theocrat who just happens to look like that guy from SVU.No happily ever after for Stargazer Lisa Gutierrez, who is bummed she never sang with the Rock Bottom Remainders.
