Quentin Tarantino is planning to remake Russ Meyer’s graduate thesis on the complex and intertwined relationship between heaving bosoms and ultraviolence, Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill!
The New York Post reports that porn queen Tera Patrick is being considered for a role. “Quentin loves her, and she’s a dead ringer for original star Tura Satana.” said the source.
Patrick gushes over the Russ Meyer 1966 cult film about three women on a violent desert road trip.
“It would be the hottest remake ever, and I’m honored to be considered,” she told Page Six. “I was built for this part.”
Faster, Pussycat! Kill! Kill! is a 1965 film directed by Russ Meyer, who also wrote the script with Jack Moran. It stars Tura Satana, Haji, and Lori Williams.
The film features gratuitous violence, sexuality, provocative gender roles, and campy dialogue. It has become a cult film favorite and has been widely referred to in pop culture.
It is one of Meyer’s more provocatively titled and explicitly exploitative films, yet unlike most of his films, it does not contain explicit nudity.
Miley will not be outdone by Angelina Jolie’s twins! To trump the new Messiahs, Miley Cyrus Shower photos have surfaced.
These are supposedly photos Miley sent to Nick Jonas. They were leaked by a hacker according to the story. More photos are out there according to the hacker. He/she claims they are “way worse” and are currently shopping the Miley Cyrus nude photos.
According to the pervert, Miley has dozens of emails to about their sex adventures. The photos are also date stamped with 10/27/07. A date which would coincide with her rumored relationship with the Nick Jonas.
She sent the wet t-shirt photos in effort to seduce Nick. In one photo she is wearing a “Nick J” necklace. He is the youngest of the Jonas Brother tribe.
Dorian Leigh, who combined pristine blue eyes, curling eyelashes, an arresting intelligence and intoxicating sexuality to become one of history’s most photographed models — perhaps the first to truly merit the adjective super — died Monday in Falls Church, Va. She was 91.
The death was announced by her grandson Thibaut Dubois.
Ms. Leigh graced seven Vogue covers in 1946, according to a New Yorker magazine article of the time, and in the next six years appeared on more than 50 more covers of various magazines, Playbill reported.
Her images in Revlon’s “Fire and Ice” nail polish and lipstick campaign in the 1950s — “For you who love to flirt with fire …who dare to skate on thin ice” — were shot by Richard Avedon and became Madison Avenue legend.
“Dorian was truly the best model of our time,” Eileen Ford, the doyenne of the modeling agency industry, said in an interview with The Roanoke Times in 1997. “She instinctively knew what every photographer wanted, and she came alive just at the moment the shutter clicked.”
Cecil Beaton wrote in his book “Photobiography” (1951) that Ms. Leigh was as demanding as the eminent photographers who shot her, including Louise Dahl-Wolfe and Irving Penn.
He said she could convey many moods, including “the sweetness of an 18-century pastel, the allure of a Sargent portrait, of the poignancy of some unfortunate woman who sat for Modigliani.”
Ms. Leigh’s mystique was enhanced by her many romances, which included five marriages — counting the one in Mexico to a Spanish marquis who turned out to be already married. There were also the many real or imagined affairs with famous writers, musicians and photographers, eagerly tabulated by gossip columnists. Ms. Leigh was definitely attractive, standing 5 feet 5 inches, with an hourglass figure and an alluring smile.

Blake Lively graces the cover of three magazines this month — but the Gossip Girl starlet isn’t too happy about one of them, according to Page Six.
“Her Vanity Fair and Cosmopolitan covers are great, but her camp is not thrilled about her Seventeen cover,” a source said. “Her rep felt the Seventeen photo looked nothing like Blake.”
Lively’s rep confirmed that she called Seventeen about the matter, but insisted that the actress hadn’t seen the photos yet.
The photo does remind me a bit of Drew Barrymore in the movie Firestarter.
Lara Logan, the chief foreign affairs correspondent for CBS News, tells The Washington Post she is pregnant, and the father is a married federal contractor whom she met while stationed in Iraq.
Logan’s relationship with Joseph Burkett - who’s in the midst of a divorce from wife Kimberly, with whom he has a 3-year-old daughter - has made media headlines, including the front page of the New York Post.
Logan is going through a divorce from estranged husband Jason Siemon, a Chicago-based energy lobbyist whom she married in 1998.
“Nobody likes to read about themselves like that, especially the way it’s been sensationalized,” Logan, 37, told The Washington Post. “I hated it. But I’m just going to rise above it and keep going.”
Logan, whose pregnancy was unplanned, told the newspaper her due date is in January, and she’s “looking forward to being a mom.”
Logan - a South Africa native who began dating Burkett following her November breakup with CNN correspondent Michael Ware - said she and Burkett plan to marry eventually.
Logan’s publicist, Tom Keaney, declined to comment.
The reporter - known for her intrepid war coverage - was promoted to CBS’ chief foreign affairs correspondent last month, and is based in Washington.
Logan, a contributor to “60 Minutes,” has won numerous reporting accolades, including an Emmy and Overseas Press Club Award
