Jenny McCarthy Does Screenwriting In DIRTY LOVE
September 23rd, 2005
Jenny McCarthy, whose film career has consisted mainly of cameos in movies like "Scary Movie 3," "Scream 3" and "BASEketball," decided to give screenwriting a shot after a pep talk from her husband, John Asher.
"He said, 'If you want it bad enough, you can't wait for other people to do it for you. You really have to sit down and do it yourself,'" she recalled. "And I refuse to sit around and wait and get old and then have to sell jewelry on HSN."
Asher, who directed McCarthy in "Diamonds" and "Thank Heaven," eventually helmed "Dirty Love." But a few months after the movie premiered at the Sundance Film Festival (see "Jenny McCarthy's 'Dirty' Movie Features Sum 41 Frontman"), the couple filed for divorce.
"We fought the entire time, but it was a good thing [for the movie]," McCarthy said. "I think when two creative minds come together, there's gonna be tension and conflict but then there'll be compromise and a better movie."
