Unnecessary Celebrity Author of the Week: I never saw "A Shot At Love With Tila Tequila," but I gather the MTV show was a dating competition that pitted girls against guys for the affection of a bisexual MySpace celebrity. Well, she sold her book this week -- a memoir, of course -- so now we will all find out how to achieve this particular American Dream.
The Elizabeth Gilbert Hype Train Rolls On: Powell's Books.BLOG mentioned the EAT, PRAY, LOVE adaptation, which was officially picked up by Brad Pitt's Plan B production company. But Julia Roberts is already attached to star, which... well, it's a plum role, but I wish it could be a careermaker for a total unknown instead of a J.R. joint. Or a real showcase for someone we've never really seen in a major role like that. My totally out there pick? Emily Mortimer doing an American accent (a reverse "Bridget Jones" if you will!)
