The original Zoolander (2001) was about a bunch of supermodels who were almost too dumb to feed themselves, so of course when they decided to make a sequel, who do you think they had in mind for a cameo appearance? Yes, Lady Gaga. I swear, it’s like shooting fish in a barrel, or some other tiny facility for them to live in, like some sort of school for ants perhaps. (That was my one and only attempt to reference the movie. I know it was terrible. Don’t judge me.) The Sun reports …
Gaga, 26, has been earmarked to play the role of love interest for the former model rivals. A Hollywood source said: “Gaga is top of their wish-list. She has the talent and attitude — and an amazing sense of humour.” Kate Moss, Kate Upton, Heidi Klum and Adriana Lima are also candidates. Filming is due to start early next year.
Oh who am I kidding; I saw the original Zoolander in theatres (I was a kid, so most of the jokes flew well over my head) and I loved it. So yeah, I’d probably go see Zoolander 2 in theatres. Or at the very least, wait until it comes out on Netflix and watch it until I wear grooves into the digital stream.
