The big news in blog land is that The Pioneer Woman’s life is coming to the big screen and the uber adorable and likeable (much like Ree) Reese Witherspoon will play her! How cool is that?!
Way to go Ree! I Can’t wait to read your book and watch the movie!
Now my question today is…
If they were going to make a movie about YOUR life, who would play you?
I’d LOVE Natalie Portman to play me…I love her! And she’s petite and brunette. Otherwise I’d want Jennifer Aniston because I LOVE her HAIR and I would finally, sort of, be able to have it. Ha!
Your turn, spill it!

Oh… since it’s fantasy time here… I’ll say I think Julia Roberts should play me. (I’ve always wanted long legs!)
Hmmm…I think it would have to be someone funny, like Cameron Diaz. I’ve always wanted long legs too, Ann. :D

When I was in high school people used to tell me I looked like Katie Holmes and while that’s not so much true these days, I’d still love it if she played me in a movie – I think she’d do a great job. :)

Well, I’m just tickled about this! And Reese Witherspoon… perfect!
As for me, I don’t really know. Maybe Mary Louise Parker (Weeds)?

@Karen, Ooh! I LOVE her!
Well, before I was fat people always told me I looked like Kate Winslet so I vote for her.

And by the way, IMO Reese already did this movie, it was called Sweet Home Alabama. Find a new actress.

@Lee, I agree Lee. But I do like Reese.
So who else should play Ree?
@Sarah,
Honestly. So many other people. Reese is simply a bad choice for Ree. She is a bit young too, I think Ree is a bit older. Robin Wright, that chick who WAS in Twilight but then they replaced her with Ron Howards daughter, that cute Isla Fisher…

I’d want Keri Hilson or Tia Mowry to play me. They’re super cute and hot! ;)
Okay I just went and looked at her because I forgot exactly what she looked like. I think Malin Akerman would play her really well. Check her out here.

Ooooo — fun question.
And . . . I have no idea. LOL. As far as looks, I don’t think there is anyone pale enough (or with “uber” (love that word) curly hair like mine) to play me!

@Rachel,
Pale with curly hair… hmm… have you ever heard of Emmy Rossum? Ran over to your blog hoping to catch a glimpse of you to see… and she might do you justice!
i am so excited for ree!!

I’ve given a LOT of thought to this, honestly.
And I would pick… Alyssa Milano (Phoebe from Charmed, Who’s The Boss, etc.)
She’s got the spice, the petiteness, and the looks. :)

So excited for Pioneer Woman and that she raised the bar for bloggers and our hard work.
To play this baby boomer I pick …. Sally Field
(If you’re too young to know who she is look it up in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sally_Field

Probably candace cameron could play me, minus that whole christian vibe. I think she could really get into it with you unexpectedly.

Katie Holmes would be a close fit. Awkward and similar features.
I’ve also been told Sandra Bullock – probably because of her thick mess of hair. LMAO.
My life is so not movie-worthy though. Growing up would have been a drama, or romantic comedy with enough twists. Now it’s just plain, boring and I love it. LOLOL.

@Erin, Boring is good…boring with a ton of LOVE..that’s awesome!
I’d say Lucille Ball but, she’s not available…
Have a great Friday!

Fun question!
I’ve been told I look like Andie MacDowell, but I would love if Claire Danes played me.

Great question and sad to admit that I am not into actress names enough these days to come up with someone. Someone like Marissa Jaret Winokur may work. Just have to add a few pounds back on her (she’s lost a lot of weight), give her red hair (she’s blond now) and make her a bit more pale.
Aloha Friday! In Honor of The Pioneer Woman…Who would play you in a movie about your life? Great replies-> http://theohanamama.com/2010/03/in-honor...
@SarahBHawaii Chelsea Handler (Chelsea Lately) would have to play me for sure if a movie came out about me…Cheers!
RT @SarahBHawaii: Aloha Friday! In Honor of The Pioneer Woman…Who would play you in a movie about your life? Great replies-> http:/ …
I’ve been told I look like Bridget Fonda and that would be okay, but I would love to be played by Mandy Moore, she’s cute, spunky and seems to be really down to earth!
.-= Holly – The Work at Home Woman´s last blog ..The Work at Home Woman – A Year in Review =-.
So fun! I’d say either Heather Graham (Austin powers chick) or Chelsea Handler because I am such the ultimate dorky mom, but with a bit of California flare….
Isn’t that amazing!? I am so excited for Ree, and maybe just a wee bit jealous ;-)
Off the top of my head, I would like Zooey Deschanel to play me. I think she’s hilarious and could really capture the crazy working mom character well

I’m not sure they would ever make a movie of me. :) Ha ha!! I am not sure who would play me. Maybe Shannon Dougherty – people used to say I look like her.
Let’s see . . . Jessica Alba? I would love to have her body! LOL!
Kirsten Dunst would have to play me. Ever since Spiderman came out people started giving me double takes then coming up and telling me I look just like her. The kicker is, we were born within 10 days of each other. Separated at birth? I AM adopted so who knows :)
