- Here’s an interesting story regarding Heidi Klum turning down a role that Kevin generously offered her in Jay & Bob. It might have been a sizeable part, too, as the article mentions she was needed for six weeks. Thanks to New York Magazine for the article. Check it out:
It looks like Matt and Ben aren’t good enough for at least one model. A Hollywood insider tells us that runway and print superstar Heidi Klum was offered a part in Kevin Smith’s latest film, but the bombshell said no thanks. The movie, Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back, is the latest installment in the red-hot director’s so-called “New Jersey Chronicles†and stars Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, George Carlin, Chris Rock, and a slew of other A-listers. Smith was impressed by Klum’s comic turn in the upcoming Miramax flick Blow Dry, so he reached out. But Klum’s rep confirms that she declined the role because it would coincide with a cover shoot for Arena and commitments for her new fragrance. “She’s a model,†says her spokesperson. “To be in L.A. for six weeks doesn’t make sense, especially because this film is shooting in February and March. She hopes to get a movie in spring or summer.†Let’s hope it’s during swimsuit season.
Likely, Developing The Monkey would have brought this up eventually! The column remains sorely missed.
- The Wizard contest to win a walk-on in “Jay & Silent Bob Strike Back†was spoofed in a recent web comic called Nowhere Man. Check it out HERE.
- Jason Biggs will be appearing on The Tonight Show Monday, February 5th…Again, likely to promote his upcoming flick — Hopefully a Jay & Bob mention will get worked in there, though.
- Jason Lee’s proposed Airwalk shoe reissue deal has fallen through. Jason has informed us that they just weren’t able to meet his terms. Real bummer, folks.
