Surprise: Cat Tapped to Star in Bette Midler Biopic
Variety is reporting that an unheralded cat from El Segundo, CA has been awarded the coveted staring role in an upcoming biopic about the life of stage and film diva Bette Midler. The kitty, whose stage name is Mitsy, won the role after a nationwide search for the star.
“We initially thoughts we’d go more traditional, you know, with a human,” said casting director Anderson Parrish. "But when we heard Mitsy meow out the tune of ‘Wind Beneath My Wings,’ we knew we had to have her.“

Dogs Deemed Unsafe Replacement for Airbags
An initiative by the R&D arm of Ford Motor Company to investigate the viability of using puppies in place of airbags in motor vehicles has been canceled.
“Our initial though was that, hey, puppies are really soft so they might be used in lieu of air bags in SUVs and light trucks,” said Ford spokesman Randy Orchandt. "But after looking into it, we’ve found that, no, puppies are actually much less effective at preventing injury, and also very distracting to drivers.“

Puppy’s Cast Signed by All His Friends
At first, Yuki was really bummed about her paw cast, but after all her school chums signed it over the weekend, she’s feeling a bit better. "It’s amazing what a little canine camaraderie can do to brighten your day,“ said Timothy Upton, a close friend of Yuki’s.
With newly lifted spirits, the puppy doesn’t feel quite so glum about having to sit out during fetch class – her favorite part of the school day.
