There is a revolution bubbling in Hollywood and it has Paris Hilton,
Lindsay Lohan and Britney Spears in its sights.
Good Hollywood girls are in and the not so well-behaved are on the outer.
Hollywood seems to be turning off its famous badgirls like Paris Hilton
and Lindsay Lohan, and focusing on more wholesome starlets such as Emma
Roberts.[Reuters]
As Hilton sits in jail, Lohan kicks back for another stint in rehab,
Spears wears wigs to hide her bald head and Nicole Richie fights to stay
out of prison, Hollywood studios are grooming a fresh-faced crop of
starlets.
The good girls, led by squeaky clean 16-year-old Emma Roberts and
21-year-old Amanda Bynes, have not been arrested for drink driving and
they avoided the trend of wearing mini-skirts without underpants.
They also are outspoken about avoiding the temptations that trap and then
destroy other members of young Hollywood.
"I'm clean and I don't do any drugs or alcohol," Bynes, who stars
alongside John Travolta, Christopher Walken and Michelle Pfeiffer in the
new Hollywood remake of the Broadway musical, Hairspray, she said in Los
Angeles recently.
"I feel like it's a choice I make.
"I don't need it."
Over the next few months the world will see Roberts, Bynes and other
respectable and marketable young actresses, including Brittany Snow, Anna
Sophia Robb and Abigail Breslin, headline major motion pictures.
The actresses will likely become role models for a generation of tweens
who once looked up to Hilton, Lohan, Spears and Richie.
Roberts, with acting talent and a fine pedigree (she is the niece of
Hollywood's biggest female name, Julia Roberts), is the star of Warner
Bros' rebirth of the Nancy Drew detective film franchise.
She plays Drew, the vivacious, albeit nerdy, teen private eye.
"We're both alike," Roberts said.
"We're both determined, ambitious and curious, but she's much more of a
neat freak than me."
Roberts may even be better behaved than Drew.
