You know, there’s nothing quite like a good attention-grabbing headline, the beauty of which is only slightly marred by the fact that it’s kind of misleading. Christina Ricci has signed on to star in a comedy called Born to Be a Star, which is the latest movie to riff on porn as a way of creating madcap comedic situations to capture the attention of the teenage male demographic. Unfortunately, from the sounds of it, Ricci will be one of the few characters who is *not* involved in the making of pornography. Whose dumb idea was that?

The movie, which was co-written by Adam Sandler, is about a nerd who discovers that his parents used to be adult film stars back in the ’70s, and sets off to Hollywood to “live the dream”, so to speak. Nick Swardson plays the lead, while Ricci will play his innocent and naive girlfriend. Tom Brady (The Hot Chick, The Comebacks) is in the director’s chair. It all sounds kinda lame to me, but I’m sure it could do quite well — assuming they don’t cast Seth Rogen in it or put the word “porno” in the title, that is! What do you think, is this more proof that porn has gone mainstream?
