Teresa Brings You a Work-Related Injury


image Ya know--when I saw this scrolling across the bottom of my TV set this weekend, I did a double take.  But Xtina assures me this snippet of news is true:  “PEOPLE magazine reports Hilary Swank suffered a striptease-related injury Thursday on the New York set of the romance P.S., I Love You.  The two-time Oscar winner was shooting a scene with her co-star, Gerard Butler, when his attempts at Chippendales verisimilitude resulted in his suspenders dislodging and whapping her on the forehead.  Filming was suspended while Swank was sutured.”

What’s next?  Brad Pitt’s zipper puts out somebody’s eye?  The elastic waistband of Hugh Jackman’s BVDs breaks a nose?  Russell Crowe throws a phone and...oh...never mind.  So how many of YOU would volunteer to sacrifice your body parts (and qualify for workmen’s comp) by filming a striptease scene with Gerard Butler?

We have another MEMBERSHIP DRIVE winner!  If Squawk Radio member MaryMeg will e-mail her snail mail addy to , we’ll be sending along some Squawk goodies just for you, including an ARC of Christina’s December release THE PRINCE KIDNAPS A BRIDE!
