Sarah Palin:White Oprah?
Sarah Palin:White Oprah? – Everybody wants to make Sarah Palin a star.Top talent agencies such as CAA, ICM, William Morris and Paradigm are trying to turn Palin into the “White Oprah” complete with book deal by the end of November. Here’s what top professionals in the field told Page Six:
“There are several of our imprints who are eager to talk to Governor Palin,” Random House spokesman Stuart Applebaum said. “She clearly has a constituency and we know books by conservatively-centered politicos usually sell very, very well.”
Public-relations powerhouse Howard Rubenstein added, “She’s poised to make a ton of money.” But he warned, “She ought to keep an eye on what her goals are for 2012. If she plays a game and looks foolish, if she sounds like she doesn’t know what she’s talking about – like saying Africa is a country – she may talk herself out of a political job.”
Linda Mann, president of Mann Media, which books celebrities and fashionistas for TV, noted, “Her buzz is incredible. She has car-wreck appeal. You’re compelled to watch, hoping she’ll say the dumbest things possible. I’d propose a show combining her love of fashion and lack of brainpower – ‘Project Dumbway.’ “
Wait a minute, if she becomes a big celebrity, does that mean she can’t express her political views?

i disagreed with all that said about mrs palin. she did her best. what happened in nov 4th was an act of God and we all need to come together and embrace that. the bible said that God put kings and removes kings; He chooses also leaders, everything on this earth belongs to Him and all that is in it. Our job is to pray for America because nothing has changed since the 60’s, we need to be more concerned than before for our children lives with all those changes that taking place in america.
