Even though Demi Moore has dished out hundreds of thousands of dollars in plastic surgery to tighten, lift and sand off any evidence of the aging process, the 44-year-old actress says that she's still having trouble landing decent film roles. She recently stated in an interview:
"It's been a challenging few years, being the age I am. Almost to the point where I felt like, well, they don't know what to do with me. I am not 20. Not 30."There aren't that many good roles for women over 40. A lot of them don't have much substance, other than being someone's mother or wife."
I think I know exactly how this problem could be solved, Demi, HIRE ME TO WRITE A MOVIE FOR YOU. I swear to God, I'll write whatever you want. I can easily be bought, sold and ground down into a fine dust and snorted. I don't know what it means, needless to say, call me.
nastybugger says:
the chupacabra, as MichaelK on DListed calls her, (rachel zoe) could stand to call Demi's surgeon.
she's like 4 or 5 years younger than Demi but looks WAY older.
T-Bone says:
What does she mean, "THEY don't know what to do with" her???? Why the hell would ANY woman stand around and wait for some Hollywood male executive to tell them what they can or can't do?
DEMI -- you have the money -- create your own part in your own damn movie! Better yet, produce and direct YOUR OWN movie! Wait for no one!
Krystyn says:
seems to me she could be taking roles like the ones Charlize Theron plays...and wins Oscars for. Or how about Judy Dench, or Helen Mirren...
I think Demi is looking for sexy roles, and frankly, we all know how old she is, reagrdless of how young she tries to make herself look.
just saying
Mr. T says:
Demi is not known for her acting ability. Now she's a whiner. WA-WA-WA. Go hug your boy toy.
stolidog says:
she's a republican, so, straight away I dislike her, BUT, even she doesn't deserve that close up you posted of her.
T-Bone says:
Why Stolidog, how down-right narrow-minded of you. Haven't you heard the old saying? "It only takes 20 years for a liberal to become a conservative without changing a single idea".
- Robert Anton Wilson
And some Republicans believe in LESS government, not more, believe it or not!
seachelle says:
In the past Demi Moore has always tried somehow to get her boobs on film, in the shower scene in gi jane, she wanted her boobs shown. Maybe no one wants to see her boobs anymore?
nastybugger says:
a TRUE republican does believe in less government. unfortunately, this charade of republicans we now have in power believe in no such thing. our government is bigger now than any other time in the history of our country.
to boot, the republican party was hijacked by the religious right, so now, the party leadership has come to represent SOCIAL conservatism rather than FISCAL conservatism. This sure ain't the party of Lincoln. (just as much as the dems are no longer the party of FDR...)
IMO, the libertarian party more closely represents what republicans used to be.
T-Bone says:
I agree nastybugger... But I don't agree with disliking someone right off the bat just because politically they lean a certain way. There SHOULD be more to it than just "I hate all Republicans" or "I hate all Democrats". I have a politically mixed group of friends and I have to say that in my experience it has been the Democrats shoving their opinions down people's throats (with very little respect), and NOT the Republicans. But maybe that's just my circle of friends. I prefer to have respect for both parties and either like or dislike people for what they have in their hearts and NOT who they vote for. It's not always a tell-tale sign.
Hey Cupcake says:
Demi, a high-school dropout, has 10s of millions of dollars to her name, a husband half her age, 3 kids, and a famous movie-star ex-husband with whom she gets along famously. She spends her time, from what I can tell, going on vacation with her posse and adding to her $250,000 plastic surgery tab. She's STILL unattractive and a mediocre actress at best. So I should feel sorry for her... why?
stolidog says:
well, ok, i dislike any republican who supports this current administration, which has zero to do with "Reagan Republicans" and everything to do with "Robertson Republicans"...nothing fiscal, everything social.
yuk.
nastybugger says:
it must be just your group of friends. :)
because I've found that it's the extremists in both parties that shove their views down people's throats, whether or one side or the other.
I can have civil political debates with my friends who are on "the other side", but I have a relative with whom I CANNOT discuss politics because she refuses to see the other side of things.
and unfortunately, it's the extremists who are usually the most vocal and therefore seem to present the party view when, in reality, they may in fact be the minority view in the party.
sort of like ann coulter or michael moore.
Va Jay Jay says:
Dumb broad..she lives in a fantasy land. Maybe because all the good rolls for 40+ actresses actually go to talented woman. Not some phony who is deathly afraid to age gracefully...pulease she could never carry a movie anyhow.
cali says:
....is she wearing dentures.....??
Mike says:
I wonder if she feels cheated since she's had so much surgery, resulting in no roles, while some of her contemporaries who can actually act, i.e. Jodie Foster, embrace their crow's feet, and can open their own movies.
Deborah says:
Of course they don't know what to do with you, Demi, dear. You are waiting for that fabulous sexy ingenue lead you thought would materialize for you after Charlies Angels. Truthfully there just aren't enough roles in Hollywood for desperately nip/tucked mature woman of middling talent.
bev444 says:
Jodie Foster seems to have no problems finding good roles; but then she can act.
ZeldaF says:
I thought that Demi was an ardent "Bush Hater"... Both she & Ashton.
bedazzler says:
Um...do you think that this has anything with STRIPTEASE that she can't get roles bitches? Duh!
Just sayin'!
maxpurr9 says:
instead of all that plastic surgery, maybe she should have spend a couple hundred thousand dollars on acting lessons--that might improve her chances at getting some work... or not...
