Here we go again Atlanta. Kim Kardashian is coming back to town to film Drop Dead Diva. Kim plays a Nikki, the romantic interest of Fred (Ben Hoffman). Apparently having a new girlfriend doesn’t keep Fred from starting some sort of business venture with his ex-girlfriend Stacy played by April Bowlby.
Kim’s story arc involves the hopefully hilarious drama that occurs as Fred struggles to keep the two women from each other’s throat.Executive Producer Josh Berman announced that Kim K would be joining the team last month. He stated in a press release, “I’m ecstatic to welcome Kim to the Diva family. In discussing the role of Nikki with her, I’m blown away by her smarts, sense of humor, and passion. This series is all about reinvention and I’m so excited to see Kim ‘reinvented’ in the world of Drop Dead Diva.”
Kim is scheduled to begin filming tomorrow. She has a multi-show arc in season four so she should be here for awhile. It does sound like Fred and Stacy will eventually reunite. The AJC Buzz recently posted a Drop Dead Diva casting call for several hunky males aged 30-37 for a shirtless love scene. Sounds practically like an orgy. Lucky for Kim she has lots of experience doing sexual scenes on camera and pretending she is in love. She should take to this role like a duck to water.
I wasn’t even going to post this one. Last night while I am getting my Wednesday night TV on I suddenly got an inbox full of tips and sightings. The most pressing one was that John Cougar Mellencamp was having dinner with Meg Ryan at Tin Lizzys. The big story about the fascinating double murder trial involving a Real Housewife of Vancouver’s husband, sex with a juror, and all sorts of murders and drama was going to take some work so I put that in my morning inbox. It’s up now and a very interesting read if you are into true crime. And during all of this Kim K and Nene were tweeting about going out to dinner. As I told you the other day, Kim is in town filming Drop Dead Diva. but none of y’all seemed to care about that until she went to dinner with Nene after she finished filming last night. The whole meal was a huge publicity stunt that they both publicized and wanted you to know about. Amazingly Nene dressed way down despite knowing it was going to be a photo op. There were local bloggers/photographers there and the whole nine yards. I have no idea why these two were so intent on being seen together, but here is a picture. They went to a new fancy steak house in Atlanta with some of the best steaks in town. Both of them ordered tuna tartare. SMH.
