What "recently retired" actress must have pulled out her checkbook (ha, more like her new family's sweeping influence and resources) to put the kibosh on a TV series loosely based on her life? Someone close to the alliterative celeb was developing a comedic take on her divorce and life with the second hubby (adding kids to the "faux" mix slash story) and getting lots of traction, 'til suddenly POOF the idea and project disappeared entirely.

There is now a minimum requirement of 5-7 puff pieces per day praising the alliterate former actress turned A list celebrity. I wonder how all of that will play out when the former husband decides to sell the wedding reception video that is being fought about behind the scenes.
