*3 possible SPOILERS!!!*

My friend taped this piece off Star TV awhile ago and I don't really know what it is but it's so funny! It starts off with Brenda Dellacasa telling us her story about being an intern at the White House during the Clinton era around the Monica Lewinsky time. Through interviews she tells us how she didn't have any money and was living in her car/storage locker and was asked to pose nude for Playboy. Okay, first of all - who's life is that exciting?! Not mine! Anyway, the piece follows her as she struggles with the dilemma of posing for them and being FILTHY rich or staying true to the President because she knew it would ruin him (even more!). I must say that she really is the most candid girl. She's very well spoken and not scared to speak her mind in all the interviews. The first part is all about Brenda arriving on the set and watching how Hollywood takes her story and mangles it. *SPOILER* She reads the script for the first time (hates it), meets the director (detests him) and meets the actress playing her...who I must say is A BABE! *SPOILER*We watch her as she hilariously whines and complains about everything and eventually storms off set.

Then we see the Hollywood version of her story with the actress who portrays her. I've never seen this actress before but she's - wow. So beautiful and so damn funny.

*SPOILER* It's a feel good piece which I like but Brenda needs to stabilize those emotions with a little Zoloft or something - holy smokes.
