Washed Up Celebrities

Writing films for Steven Seagal can be a tiring business.

The hard bit trying to keep a steady stream of celebrity hungry no-bodies dumb enough to appear in a Seagal film. I know I have repeated many of the celebrities I have used and some of my favourites are Kerry Katona, So Solid Crew and Martine McCutcheon.

The challenge is finding a celebrity that is definitely not A list and may be struggling to be B list. They need to be desparate and fit one of the stereotypical Seagal roles:

1. Unplausibly Hot Totty caught up in drama
2. The Bad Guy - The bad guy is usually the leader of a bunch of mercenaries (often worked with Seagal in some sort of military past) and so the ability to frown is vital
3. Jive Talkin Street Hip Dude - Watch 'Today You Die' to see what I mean... painful.

Anyway, my life could be made easier by a fellow blogger who is producing a steady stream of washed up celebrities. Watch this space for their inclusion in my scripts!
