Something Tells Me We Haven’t Heard the Last of Her…
It’s no surprise that publishers are clamoring after the would-be VP, aka The Hockey Mom Lipstick Moose Hunting Caribou Barbie Sarah Palin (phew, that’s a lot of nicknames!). The New York Post reports that publishers aren’t the only ones after America’s new sweetheart- major talent agencies are pursuing her as well. According to the article: “CAA, ICM, William Morris, Paradigm and other agencies smell books, talk shows and commentary for Fox and CNN.”
And of course, there are the people who are after her solely to capitalize on her public floundering. One media company president suggested that Palin is so hot because she has “car-wreck appeal.” The real story is the buzz over how much she’ll get for her first book/memoir. I mean, Tina Fey got $6 million…does the real thing deserve more?
