Why be extraordinary when you can go for transmundane?
Heidi Montag has finally found something to take her mind off of body image issues and plastic surgery - she's set her mind on replacing Megan Fox in Transformers 3. When rumours started swirling around that Megan's big mouth had got her canned off the movie Heidi's wheels started turning. If an actress can lose a role for mouthing off, then maybe it's possible to get that part by sucking up. So Heidi began tweeting with a vengeance. She posted some Bay directed stuff basically calling him brilliant and an artist of incomparable ability - come on Heid's, he's no Roman Polanski. She laid it on pretty thick, to the point where she may have even asked him if the mural on the Sistine Chapel was his idea.
from Transformers to attack of the killer tomatoes
So now we know Heidi's really smooth. In case that was still in any doubt Ms. Montag is even making her own audition tape for Bay, and posting them on youtube!
crazy like a really dumb fox
Now some people would say that posting this to youtube has nothing to do with getting the T3 gig, and everything to do with getting attention. It's easy to be cynical. I prefer to give Ms Montag the benefit of the doubt (I'm naive that way). Michael Bay surely has a whole system in place to make sure that the Heidi's of the world never get through the front door, or even find out where the front door is. Posting her video on youtube gets her past the gate keepers - it make Bay come to her, virtually.
the reality of movie horror
Speculation aside there's one thing that everyone shoulder be able to agree on and that is that this is getting embarrassing. Ever since Fox's announced departure Montag has been making PR with a vengeance out of it. So maybe Bay could see his way to reinstating Fox back into the movie. A deFoxed T3 is only encouraging the reality TV crowd. Bay might have an idea for a potential future film here though. With all the ambitious desperate actresses coming out of the wood work, the competition for Fox's part is getting more genuinely frightening than the whole killer robot trip!
Heidi has the ability to turn a fiasco into a farce simply by making a spectacle of herself! So better she should get the part than say Sarah Palin (who can also turn a fiasco into a farce by making a spectacle of herself). Sarah no doubt would've loved to do T3 too, but casting her has Shia's older woman MILF love interest would be just plain creepy.
BTW if you're interested in putting a stop to this kind of tom foolery then join the Boycott Transformers 3 Without Megan Fox page on Facebook. If you're enjoying the spectacle then carry on!
Speaking of action movie audition reels, here are a few young ladies who might want to make their submissions to Bay & co.
