Sigourney Weaver Strips Down for Gypsy
She "bumped" off some
monsters in Alien, and "grinded" against Bill Murray in
Ghostbusters, so perhaps Sigourney Weaver is more than prepared
to portray legendary stripper Gypsy Rose Lee in the upcoming HBO
movie Gypsy and Me.
 Boasting
a script from gay writer Martin Sherman (Bent, Mrs.
Henderson Presents), Gypsy and Me looks at her later life, when
she left the stage to become a best-selling author and made a tidy bundle
selling her life story to be made into the classic musical Gypsy.
This new film is based on the book My G-String Mother: At Home and
Backstage with Gypsy Rose Lee by Lee's son, Erik Lee Preminger
(who, by age 12, was his mother's business manager).
Shooting on the stripper saga will happen before the end of the year.
