Broadway King, Adam's mean, Mimi sings, Pam's fling
• Stephen King has written a script for a musical called Ghost Brothers of Darkland County with music by John Mellencamp, to open in Atlanta next year en route to Broadway, the AP reports. Casting calls are now open for evil clowns, acid-spewing spiders and demonic cars.
• Big Brother contestant Adam Jasinski, who called autistic children “retards” on the show, has been fired from his job at the United Autism Foundation, although he doesn’t know it yet, the New York Post reports. He’s too busy dealing with his mentally challenged housemates right now.
• 30 Rock’s Jack McBrayer found work during the writers strike by appearing in Mariah Carey’s latest video, Touch Me (preview available above). We’ll bet Kenneth never expected to one day be fetching coffee for Mimi.
• Late last week Pamela Anderson filed papers in L.A. seeking an annulment from her husband Rick Salomon rather than a divorce, the AP reports. Although no specifics were available, Anderson is using the basis of fraud, which should be an obvious choice for this sham of a marriage.
