Stranger Than Fiction Haleloo!

I don't even know where to begin with this. I'm going to make it short, because I don't even know where to begin with this.  Wait.  Did I just repeat myself?

So here I am, quietly reading my Entertainment Weekly, when the name D.J. Pierce creeps up.  I sat, asking myself quietly, why does that name sound so familiar?  Then I put two and two together, and figured out it was Ms. Shangela Laquifa Wadley from RuPaul's Drag Race.  Okay, so Entertainment Weekly helped me figure it out. Either way, the bitch has managed to walk away with reportedly an NBC television script also featuring Don Johnson and viral video celebrity Chris Crocker.

Here's a clip of the article and Shangela's role in it:

So what’s the deal with the show — and Shangela’s role on it? Here’s what’s what. A Mann’s World centers on Johnson, who plays Allan Mann, a Beverly Hills hairdresser (yes, really) who is having trouble staying relevant. And this is where Shangela comes into play: In the pilot, Shangela — err, D.J. Pierce — is set to play Snip, one of three fabulous, top-tiered stylists who come into Mann’s salon. (One-third of the trio will be played by Chris Crocker, who became famous after releasing a crying jag about Britney Spears’ infamously botched performance of “Gimme More” at the 2007 VMAs.) Also starring in the show are Sex and the City‘s Mario Cantone and Ellen Barkin. Sex and the City‘s Michael Patrick King is set to produce. Not a shabby cast or creative team, to say the least!

All I have to say, Shangela said it best when the show ended last week,  

“It’s a sad feeling because I definitely came back into this competition wanting to win. And it’s not been easy, but I’m leaving a winner,” Shangela said. “And it’s just a lesson for everyone who’s ever wanted to pursue a dream they’ve had. Live your passion, and live it to the fullest. Halle-lou!”
