Debbie Schlussel: Walt is Turning Over in His Grave: Disney Considers Porn Star for "Tinkerbell" Role
She's made several porn films, in which she's heard directing camera angles. But apparently that isn't enough to disqualify Paris Hilton from playing Disney's "Tinkerbell".
Paris Hilton wants to play Tinkerbell - not her pet Chihuahua, but the famed fairy from "Peter Pan." A source tells us the celebutard is lobbying for the title role in Disney's live-action version of "Tinkerbell," in which the pixie finally gets a chance at life as a real girl. "Paris has worked on her acting chops lately and showed some comedy prowess in her YouTube spoof of running for president," our insider said. "Disney suits saw it and think she may be developing some comedic-actress potential."
Hmmm . . . Have those same Disney suits seen her most famous "movies" online, which she later sold DVDs of for profit? Surely, they are aware of them. Is there no edit button at Disney, these days? Does it not give them pause that they are actually considering the star of "One Night in Paris" (put out by Red Light District Video--hello . . .? to play the lead in a Disney film for young kids? You don't have to be a prude to know that this is completely inappropriate.
Aren't there any parents who are willing to contact Disney and tell them they won't let their kids see a movie with a porn star playing a fairy tale character?
There are plenty of more deserving and actually talented actresses without resorting to casting this woman.
Like I said in the headline, Walt Disney is turning over in his grave.
