Page6 reports that the next victim of the ever-spreading Mommy-Bug is..... Bad Babe Jennifer Jason Leigh. Congrats, I guess. Not that I'm terribly interested in the reproductive goings-on of complete strangers...

However, Jennifer Jason Leigh was scheduled to star with Ashton Kutcher in the sexy comedy Spread (2009). Kutcher as a womanizer who dumps Leigh. But hey, nothing a little stalking can't fix....

Is there a pattern emerging? Ashton Kutcher playing the hunky love interest of older women? Sure, in What Happens in Vegas (can't wait to see it!) his love interest played by Cameron Diaz is only six years older. Ms. Leigh is a tad older than that. And in Personal Effects (2009) he gets close with Michelle Pfeiffer? Oooh, baby. Well, I totally can see him with all these actresses. If we're headed for a remake of (a slightly older) Harold and Maude, may I suggest Angela Lansbury? Sweet lady. But back to....

Spread. Page 6 claims that Laura Linney was in talks to replace preggers JJ Leigh. Sure. That would be about as inspired a film-couple as Edward Burns and Angelina Jolie (Life or Something Like it). Hell no.

Let's see who they'll come up with next...
