Meghan McCain’s fantasy life casting: Hillary Duff & Bradley Cooper

wenn5317556
Meghan McCain, socialite/blogger daughter of Sen. John McCain, has been working on her first novel for what seems like forever. As yet, I don’t think the book is even half-way written, nor does it have a firm release date. But that hasn’t stopped Meghan from mentally signing away the movie rights, adapting the novel into a screenplay, finding financing for the film as well as attaching a director, and casting what will most likely be a turd of a film. Meghan explained her dream casting to Gatecrasher. The character “loosely based” on Meghan (perhaps called “the young, beautiful Meg McCabe”) would be played by Hillary Duff, or in Meghan’s words “anyone who’s blond.” As for the love interest, Meghan wants none other than serial first-dater Bradley Cooper.

Meghan McCain hasn’t even released her first book, but she’s already planning the movie version.

“I want Hillary Duff to play me. I think she’s really hot - hotter than me - but I’d still want her to play me,” Sen. John McCain’s daughter confided to us at the Trevor Project’s’s summer gala on Monday night at Capitale.

But the young Republican isn’t dead set on Duff. “Really, I’d take anyone who’s blond,” she joked, adding that one actor in particular would certainly be welcome to join the cast.

“Bradley Cooper is so hot,” McCain swooned. “If he can be in it, he will. I’m obsessed with [his film] ‘The Hangover!’”

The Daily Beast blogger also revealed that Sarah Palin will be coming to life on the big screen. “I just wrote a chapter about her, so she’ll definitely be in it, too,” McCain said.

“But I don’t know who would play her.” Guess she’s not a fan of “Saturday Night Live“ - or she’d know that Tina Fey is practically synonymous with the Alaskan governor.

The book, due next spring from Hyperion, will examine “what it means to be a progressive Republican in the party today,” according to McCain.

“It’s half political, and it’s half a memoir,” said the 24-year-old. “It’s like ‘Primary Colors’ meets Tori Spelling’s ’sTori Telling.’ I want young women to actually be able to read it.”

While the release of the book may bring her family back into the spotlight, McCain believes any attention would be nothing compared to living in the White House - something she says the Obamas are handling with aplomb.

“The Obamas are doing very well - their popularity is very high - but I’m just happy it’s nothing my family has to figure out,” she insisted. “I’m so relieved. I did not get along with the Secret Service, so it’s good that I’m not living there. You know those Disney movies [where princesses are always well guarded]? Life in the White House is just like that, except there were no cute guards. Seriously, none of them were cute at all!”

We think we’ve found Bradley Cooper his next role.

I actually spent a few minutes trying to think up which blonde would be better than Hillary Duff for Meghan’s casting, and I came up blank. Katherine Heigl? Uh, no. I don’t like Heigl, but even I don’t want to see her playing a version of Meghan. Lindsay Lohan as a blonde? Nope. Blake Lively’s a half-decent possibility… yeah, I’ll go with Blake. Blake and Bradley Cooper. That wouldn’t be so bad, actually.

  1. She looks so much like her dad. Shave her head and throw an expensive suit on her and I don’t think I could tell them apart.

    SHe went very one-sided, played the victim card (something along the lines like “pick on the republican, why don’t we”) but in truth, repub or dem, she was unprepared in her answer and lost that round (and a few others) on the show.

    the original kate:

    she really is an idiot who would be working at mcdonalds if her last name weren’t mc cain. her “blog” is ridiculous and poorly written and in interviews she sounds like alicia silverstone from “clueless”. i saw her interviewed on some show (rachel maddow?) and when asked why she’s a republican megan’s answer was “being a republican is great! it’s cool! republicans rock!” mmmm-kay.

  7. Personally, I like Meghan in the “she’s harmless” sort of way. And she actually is a very well spoken young girl, or atleast it seemed like it when she was on the Colbert Report.

    She actually seems more of a Democrat than a Republican most of the time, but who can blame the girl for being a bit wishy-washy?

    We all know she’s a closet Democrat, but she’ll never come out publicly, will she?

    Maybe she’s afraid of getting disowned, or that she’s not really sharp enough to be a “liberal” pundit, but more than adequate for the dullard “conservative” ranks….

    just a thought…but her whole “schtick” seems rather calculated
