So theres a RUMOR (!) that Selena is being considered for a movie role. to play Deborah Harry.
Now here's an interesting rumor. Disney/Touchstone Films is supposed to be quite interested in putting the history of Blondie -- the group's meteoric rise, sudden demise, the near-fatal illness of bandmember Chris Stein, and the band's eventual reconciliation -- onscreen, as a big bio-pic.
Blondie, was one of the most influential bands of the late 1970s, with hits like "Heart of Glass," "One Way or Another," "Call Me" (the American Gigolo theme), "Rapture" and "The Tide Is High." Debbie, blonde and gorgeous, became the face, and of course the sound of the band, which naturally led to dissension. (The more brash Madonna could never have come along a few years later, without the sexy, hypnotic example of Debbie Harry.)
The real surprise to come out of this "well-placed rumor," is the young actress/singer Disney is looking at to play Deborah Harry -- their very own brunette Selena Gomez. She is best-known for her role on Disney's The Wizards of Waverly Place and her odd romance with Justin Bieber. (Sorry, but he behaves more obnoxiously each day.)
Gomez, a Latina, is beautiful, a charming actress, might look great as a blonde, and she can sing. She had a big hit with "I Love You Like a Song, Baby."
But, can she carry a feature film, portraying one of the most iconic figures in pop music? Hard to say until it happens, if it ever does. Everybody might run screaming, the minute Selena goes blonde. Would Disney then consider Lady Gaga?)
