Obviously I LOVE this story. SO MUCH.
Gwyneth Paltrow, Cameron Diaz, Reese Witherspoon, and Beyonce will star in a musical comedy called One Hit Wonders to be written and directed by Glee’s Ryan Murphy. Andy Samberg and the Lonely Island are doing the songs.
Let me give you a minute to stop punching yourself in the face.
Out of joy or rage?
For me, it’s joy. Only joy. Pure joy.
One Hit Wonders will obviously be a mess. One Hit Wonders will obviously be mess in the best way. If I could buy a ticket now, I totally would.
The premise features G, Cam, and Reese as pop stars from the 90s, each having only one hit, only to see their careers go to sh-t afterwards, who decide to form a supergroup. GOOPY SPICE GIRLS!!!
I’m thinking Beyonce is the competition?
PLEASE.
“Tom, 80's pop icon who only wrote one hit record then retired because he found that one record was quite enough to get him laid for the whole of the 90's. Total poof, of course.”
Paltrow will also serve as producer on the project. Apparently Murphy took the idea to Amy Pascal at Sony. She’s the boss behind The Social Network, Spider-Man, and Moneyball. Pascal was sold after only 10 minutes.
So... some people think this is a good idea...?
It totally is. But I’m not sure their reasons are the same as ours. I mean, I’m going because I can’t wait to laugh at GOOP singing with her eyes closed, Cammie dancing around Charlie’s Angels styles in her underwear, and Reese standing with her arms akimbo wiggling her nose with her eyes wide trying to look taller...all of them trying to keep the hair out of their faces as Beyonce’s wind machine blows in the background.
How do you not love this???
How did Jennifer Aniston not get invited to this party?
And how does one Sean Young her way onto this set? Imagine the macrobiotic meangirling between scenes? Every day at 2pm they’ll devote half an hour to Angelina Jolie.
