First someone wanted Paris Hilton to play Mother Theresa and now French producer Phillippe Rebboah wants Britney Spears to play Virgin Mary in “Sweet Baby Jesus.” What in the world is wrong with these people? Actually, don’t answer that! He’s probably doing it for the publicity.
"Spears, 26, would play a pregnant 19-year-old unsure of her baby's paternity who goes into labor on Christmas Eve in Bethlehem, Maryland, as rumors swirl that the birth is Jesus Christ's second coming." Rebboah said, "I had to convince my partners, because they were like, 'Oh, no. Britney?' But I thought it was brilliant."
The producer told Us Weekly that they will start shooting the film in March and Britney is “reviewing the script.”
