Lady Gaga Rumored For $5-Million 'Zoolander' Sequel Offer
by Sean ComerLady Gaga and "Zoolander"? Sure, why not?
Hell, she's almost as much an avant-garde fashion icon as she is one of music. Had she been as much a household buzz name circa 2000-2001 as she is today, it's inconceivable that "Zoolander" creator Ben Stiller would've dreamed pass up getting her involved.
Still, you get what you get in life. And this time out, Derek Zoolander may go Gaga. The (U.K.) Sun reports that the "Born This Way" artist had been approached with a roughly $5-million offer to appear in the upcoming sequel.
"Gaga is top of their wish-list. She has the talent and attitude - and an amazing sense of humor," said one source.
No doubting anything about that claim.
Stiller, who is also producing the project, will obviously return as the Blue Steel-gazing male fashion plate. Likewise, Owen Wilson is reportedly back as rival-turned-chum Hansel McDonald. Word around the campfire is, Gaga was offered a part as a love interest to one of the two.
If she's indeed down for the gig, she won't be the alpha female by a long shot. Fashion icons Kate Moss, Heidi Klum, Kate Upton and Adriana Lima are also rumored to be joining the sequel, in addition to Will Ferrell returning as the villainous Mugatu.
Filming is set to begin in 2013.
