Hilary Duff Gets An Acting Job

The jobs are few and far between for Hilary Duff, but she did manage to land a guest starring role on the season finale of Two And A Half Men. The show, which has used stunt casting all season long for potential love interests on the show, adds two for the season finale where Hilary plays someone who Ashton Kutcher wants to be with but then he ends up falling for Hilary's grandmother played by Marilu Henner who can currently be seen on Celebrity Apprentice but made her fame on Taxi. Did you ever see that movie where John Travolta played a Rolling Stone reporter and Marilu Henner was his love interest when he wrote about the world of aerobics?

  2. Yeah I need to see that JT movie asap! It seems like it has the potential to be the best awful movie ever.

  3. I'm so glad this set of teeth fit her mouth. What a mistake she had going there, for a few years even. Big plastic teeth, so obvious.
    Now they look fine.

    1. @libby Her teeth weren't as upsetting (to me) as David Bowie's. Those 'improved' chompers (my phone wants to correct to 'chi pets' which almost works) make me sad. Give me his pointy old androgynous teeth any day.

  4. I am SO mean-sounding. Sorry!

  5. Yes, I saw "Perfect". *hangs head in shame* It's so awful, it's awesome. Although it does have Jamie Lee Curtis and a post-nose job Larraine Newman from the original SNL cast (totally didn't recognize her.)

  6. I thought Ashton Kutcher was a lady at first in this photo...

  7. Libby- those original chompers were baaad! I'm glad she's putting her hubbys money to good use.

  8. rcb--Since I'm being mean today, I'll 'troll up' this thread by including Alyssa Milano in the 'Tragic First Veneers Club'.

    Any others I'm forgetting?

  9. I used to watch Perfect over and over on HBO when I was about 12. LOL
    It was an awesome hot mess!

  10. Per wikipedia about JT's movie Perfect:
    In a 1994 interview with Rolling Stone Magazine, Quentin Tarantino claimed this movie was "greatly underappreciated due Curtis' very 'tight' performance."

    Oh QT- you would.

  11. Hi Charlotte.

    ITA-- I LOVE natural teeth, especially on actors.
    When you try to play a historical or downtrodden role, blinding-white, expensive fake teeth totally take you out of that.

    1. @libby. Yes! Those ye olde time prison dental plans were surely worth being gaoled for. My family are notoriously snarky of such details. We also have to watch Bond movies just to make bad puns a la 'He sure fell for it' as bad guy falls from parapet after being shot. It felt like those things were ore connected before I typed them out.

      Also, thanks for the welcomes CDaN-ites

  12. I watched "Bachelorette" with the gf last night and I was surprised KiKi still has her actual teeth. And that someone paid Isla Fisher good money to turn in her performance in that.

    1. Lucas- I liked that movie and Isla was my favorite part. She reminded me of my bestie who is a bit of an airhead.

    2. @rcb - I thought there was potential in the flick, but they just didn't capitalize on it. It would have been better if they'd either ditched the Gena/Clyde story and focused entirely on shenanigans or ditched the wedding as a vehicle for Gena and Clyde to work out the damage from their relationship. But that wouldn't have been a comedy and probably would have picked up an award or two at Sundance.

      Delete
    3. Lucas- I agree about the Gena/Clyde storyline. It really took over and became the main part of the movie. It had potential to be a hilarious movie if they stuck to the hot messes that were the bridesmaids.

  13. If the only acting job I could get was as Ashton's love interest I think I'd just stay home and admire my teeth.

  14. @libby - YES! I hate watching a historical movie with a poor character who has absolutely perfect teeth. I know the actor has to, I know, but ARGH, there was no Gentle Dental in the 1600s!

  15. Del Riser--laughed out loud, thank you.

  16. Izzie---ITA w/ you, as usual. You must be real real smart. haha

    FSP--You have to admit, her first 'adult' set were so big they were distracting. They impaired her speech a bit, they were so big.

    She's lovely and has a much better set now, dear dear FSP. I'm sorry.

  18. Renoblondee, I did the same thing, loved the movie! I remember thinking, wow I want a figure like Jamie's someday. Didn't happen, lol.

  19. Oh god, Perfect is one of the gayest Travolta movies in his cannon.

    I mean every word of that.

  25. Snooki got new teeth and they are bigger that she is

  26. Wasn't that the movie with Jamie Lee Curtis? It was based on a Rolling Stone Magazine article & Jann Wenner produced it so Rolling Stone went all in to promote it. They published a long production diary supposedly written by Travolta. At one point in the diary he speculates on whether he should sleep with Jamie Lee Curtis. At the time I thought, seriously John?, do you really want her to read that crap in Rolling Stone Magazine? Looking back now she probably laughed so hard her nose started bleeding.

  27. Hillary got new teeth because hers were too fucked up from all the dick she was sucking at Camp Longhorn when she was a teenager.
