HEY QUEEN OF MEAN FANS! LEGENDARY NETWORK, HBO, SIGNS LISA TO PILOT DEAL!

It's a match made in heaven -- the edgiest comic out there and the edgiest network EVER! That's right! HBO has signed Lisa Lampanelli to star in, executive produce, and co-create a series. Due in HUGE part to comedic genius/box-office wonder, Jim Carrey, who took Lisa under his wing when he saw her at Los Angeles' Wiltern Theatre nearly a year ago, the deal with the pay network was announced Friday in Variety.

LISA SIGNED TO BOOK DEAL WITH HARPER COLLINS

The Queen of Mean's got an opinion on EVERYTHING, and Harper Collins, one of the leading book publishers in the world, wants to hear them all. So, the publishing giant has signed Lisa to a deal for her first book, "The World According to Lisa: The Queen of Mean's Guide to the Universe." Check out their press release below:



Collins Inks Deal With "Comedy's Lovable Queen Of Mean"

New York, NY - CollinsPublishers today announced a major deal with Grammy-nominated comedian Lisa Lampanelli for a collection of her jaw-dropping, politically incorrect rants and observations. THE WORLD ACCORDING TO LISA: The Queen of Mean's Guide to the Universe, to be published in Fall '09, will provide Lampanelli's take on relationships, parenting, fitness, minority groups, religion, and every subject in between. Insult comedian Lampanelli, who is quick to poke fun at her own physical and moral imperfections, has an opinion on every subject under the sun, which is sure to make for a hilarious read.

The New York Times said Lampanelli "talks like a truck driver but resembles a '50s housewife in her pearls, shirtwaist dresses and button-down sweaters." Lampanelli, a former journalist who in May sold out Carnegie Hall for her debut performance there, began her stand-up career in New York in the early '90s and is a frequent guest on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, The Howard Stern Show, and on Comedy Central.

Asked if perhaps this book is an attempt to become part of the literary community, Lampanelli is quick to say, "You bet your ass it is! I'm a classy broad! First, The New York Times, then Carnegie Hall, now a book deal. I'm like Charlotte from Sex and the City -- if Charlotte dated black guys and said the C-word a lot."

That's right! Lisa will be appearing on her hero's show -- Howard Stern, of course -- on Monday, May 12th, at 8:30 a.m. EST, discussing everything from her upcoming show at Carnegie Hall to her Grammy anger to the NFL player backlash from her last appearance on Howard. So, switch on Howard 100 at 8:30 a.m. on Monday, May 12th. You'll kick yourself if you don't.

ATLANTA SHOW RESCHEDULED

We regret to inform all Lisa's Atlanta fans that they will spend Saturday, April 19th, in a Lisa-less haze. Sadly, the Tabernacle suffered too much damage due to the city's recent tornadoes, and is therefore unsuitable for concerts of any kind at this time.
