First there was Pamela Anderson. But could Britney Spears be next on the hit list for the US Kath & Kim?
It’s an idea that’s been floated by executive producer Michelle Nader.
In an interview with Nader, Molly Shannon and Selma Blair, for TVGuide, there’s a lot of celebrity lovin’ going on, and a good deal of praise for Jane Turner and Gina Riley:
Molly Shannon: I will say that the Australian version is so well done it’s very hard to touch. As a comedian, I felt like I had to find a way to make it my own. Coming from Saturday Night Live where I created original characters, it was hard doing something that already existed that was done so perfectly.
TVGuide.com: Who are Kath and Kim’s favorite celebrities?
Shannon: I think Kath’s is Nicole Kidman. I love her in my personal life too.
Nader: Well, Kath also likes Cher.
Shannon: You like Cher, Michelle. Which I guess is why my character idolises Cher.
Nader: We actually just had Pam Anderson on the show in a dreamlike sequence; it felt very natural for her to be there somehow.
TVGuide.com: Any other guest stars coming up?
Nader: We just had Maya Rudolph on — she was hilarious. And there’s talk of Britney Spears coming on for a story about Kath and Kim going to Las Vegas to see the Cher show. I guess I really do like Cher.

And don’t judge it by the third episode (first one 7 put back on in summer), which i found horrible. I watched the 5th episode last night and it was pretty good, best one of the series.
Amen Itsross!. I’m also still watching it and quite enjoying it. I thought the first three eps were cringe-worthy, but once you get past that it is quite good. I suggest to everyone to give it another go when it comes back for summer. Just remember, it’s not meant to be our Kath and Kim.
I’m still watching US K&K too Grinspoon, and enjoying it. It’s definitely getting better and has a few genuine laugh out loud moments.
People try and compare it to “our” K&K but you can’t do that, it is its own show and I enjoy it.
That show is horrible.
I don’t mind the US K&K, I’m still watching it and enjoying it.
mmm, geez, they’re throwing everything at K&K in the US to try and lift its profile arent they…
Coming from a Britney fan; no. Just no. Britney belongs to HIMYM. I really hope she comes back for another few stints.
