A Real Bronx Cheer
I hear that Whoopi Goldberg has officially left the acting profession, citing reasons of "not having any fun". Having witnessed the horrors of 'Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit', I can quite understand.
Funny you should mention WG. She was in a film the other day on C5 about Leprachauns (incidentally - it was a pile of shit.) And I thought why is she in this. I imagined her conversation with her agent going something like.
WG: Hey. WGA: Hey. Ms Goldberg. it's Chuck. Your agent. Remember me? Sorry I've not been in contact for a while but Ive got a great part for you. WG: Excellent what is it? WGA: A film about Leprachauns. You get to play the great big monster, mother earth, fairy type creature. Only a few lines. WG: Aww, Fuck Chuck. That sounds shit. Cant you pull some strings for them to make a Sister Act 3? Maybe Sister Act 3:Kicking the Habit? or how about Ghost 2? WGA: Sorry Whoopi but there just isnt much call for your style of acting...
And then funnily enough, later that day, Sister Act was on too. Of course I watched it. I bet Whoopi was smiling that day just thinking of all her royalties...
