As promised last week here’s the list of falling starlets of 2007. So mainly the people that have been going down on the Hollywood ladder. I’m fairly certain that there will be more people that disagree witht his one than with the Rising Starlets 2007 list from last week. The premise is the same in this case though, these views are only based on one opinion and that’s mine. I could of course be completely wrong and some of them might have dozens of secret projects lined up. But looking at the current situation the list comes out as this:
10. Jamie Lynn Spears
Jamie Lynn was Zoey on Zoey 101 last year, Zoey this year and Zoey next year. Nothing else at all, Zoey 101 is all she does so she’s pretty much going nowhere in Hollywood. Bad press surrounding her family isn’t exactly helping her either.
9. Hilary Duff
Last year I thought Hilary was finally going to do other roles than the sweet and nice girl. She did in War Inc.; the problem with that is that the movie still hasn’t found a distributor. Other things she has seen in 2007 is a Razzie nomination for worst actress and a new album which pretty much failed if you compare them to her previous albums.
8. Sara Paxton
Her only project for 2007 was Sydney White which pretty much flopped. In 2008 the only thing she has lined up is Superhero! Which is destined to fail, so her career really isn’t going anywhere right now.
7. Kirsten Dunst
Sure Kirsten has been in one of the most successful movies of the year but that’s all Kirsten is right now; Mary Jane Watson.
6. Kaley Cuoco
The Big Bang Theory might be halfway successful her other project for 2007 was Cougar Club a straight to DVD comedy. For 2008 the only thing she has lined up next to the Big Bang Theory is Killer Movie, another movie that’s destined to fail. Kaley is pretty much doomed to star in mediocre sitcoms.
5. Lacey Chabert
She never managed to equal the success of her Party of Five days and her role in Mean Girls. In 2007 she only did several small unnoticeable independent movie and at this time it seems to be the same thing for 2008.
4. Michelle Trachtenberg
In 2007 nothing featuring Michelle was released; she was supposed to star in a new show called the Hill but it was put on hold before they even finished filming the pilot. The show is still on hold for 2008 so it might come out after all. Another thing coming out in 2008 is Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight a movie that has been in development for decades but won’t make it past a video released; so that failed even before it was released. The only thing worthwhile for 2008 will probably be the independent movie The Possibility of Fireflies. She also landed a role in the movie 17 but that won’t be released until 2009.
3. Tina Majorino
Tina’s highlight in her career was of course Napoleon Dynamite. In 2007 her main things were her roles on the TV shows Veronica Mars and Big Love. Both shows have ended now so at this time there are no projects listed for Tina. She seems to be a talented girl to me but it’s just not working for her right now.
2. Emmy Rossum
We can be short about Emmy; there were no movie roles for her in 2007 and there are non listed in 2008. She of course released her first album but it failed miserably with a peak ranking of 199 on the Billboard Charts, she’s pretty much lucky she even made it onto the Billboard Charts.
1. Lindsay Lohan
Not really a shocker here; both movies she had coming out in 2007 flopped and for 2008 her movie roles aren’t that certain yet. The going to rehab twice in 2007 doesn’t help her either, she sure went from making 7.5million dollars a movie to someone who studios don’t want to touch quickly. She pretty much has to start her career from scratch again.
