A Scene from the Musical, "Wicked: The Untold Story of the Tattooed Homewrecker Who Supposedly 'Ruined' the Life of America's Sweetheart"
MICHELLE: Hello. I'm here for the audition.
JESSE: (stunned) Audition? (beat) Oh, yes. The....um....audition.
MICHELLE: The description was fairly vague. What exactly would I be modeling?
JESSE: Good question. Well, you'll be modeling....(looks around frantically)...bikes. Yes, bikes. Motorcycles.
MICHELLE: Motorcycles. Okay. I can do that. (takes off robe)
JESSE: (eyes bug out of head) Yaooowwzzzza!
MICHELLE: You know, I'm pretty new to modeling. I just lost my job, so this is just a temporary situation.
JESSE: (gaining more composure) Of course it is, sweetie.
MICHELLE: You know, I guess I've just never been very confident about showing off my body. I mean, as a lady I try to be as modest as I possibly can be. Plus, I'm not sure I've got the figure for Hollywood.
JESSE: What? No way. You look great. In fact, you look so good that I think I can cancel all the rest of the appointments today. (Michelle looks around to find no one else waiting). You're hired. You're perfect. You've got the look, kid!MICHELLE: (thinks for a minute, but sees no other choice) Okay. I'll take it.
(Jesse puts one hand on Michelle's shoulder. She smiles sweetly at the friendly gesture and then looks down to find a ring on his left ring finger)
MICHELLE: (surprised) You're married.
JESSE: Yes, to Sandra Bullock, but you know all Hollywood marriages are just big publicity stunts, right? (gives seductive look) Besides, rings come off, darlin' (starts rubbing her shoulders)
MICHELLE: I don't know about this...
JESSE: You wanna be star, don'tcha?!
MICHELLE: (thinking) Well...I do really need this job...
(breaks into song)
OH I CAME FROM A SMALL TOWN
SMALLEST ONE AROUND
MY AMISH PARENTS WARNED ME
OF THE EVIL THAT COULD ONLY
COME WITH THE SECULAR LIFE
OF BREAKING UP HUSBAND AND WIFE
OH HOLLYWOOD, I DID NOT WANT YOU
BUT FAME AND FORTUNE THEY ALWAYS DO
WIN OUT IN THE END
WHEN NO ONE WILL LEND
A HAND...
HE SAYS HIS MARRIAGE IS JUST FOR SHOW
BUT WHY THEN DOES SHE NOT KNOW
ABOUT ALL THE OTHERS
HOW MANY LOVERS
ARE HIS...
I'M JUST A POOR GIRL FROM SMALL MEANS
AND NOW I'M COMING APART AT THE SEAMS
I USED TO DREAM BENEATH THE BIG DIPPER
NOW MY DREAM IS TO BECOME A GREAT STRIPPER
FAME, YOU PROPOSED DOWN ON ONE KNEE
OH HOLLYWOOD, YOU'VE GOT A HOLD ON ME...

Haha, so is this considered "anti-fan" fiction? Plus, why did you put "ruined" in quotes? Sandra Bullock will never be able to get another date in her life, let alone a husband, she is tarnished goods!
What? No way. She'll be dating again in no time. Everyone wants her.
Let's see: gorgeous super star super rich academy award winning actress with bad judgment in men, who wants to mess with that?
this is perhaps the best thing you've ever written, lady amy. just amazing.
Several months ago I adjusted my Wednesday morning routine to read Lady Amy first, then Savage Love.
