Socialite Paris Hilton has been pegged to play Barbie in an upcoming film about the famous doll.

Ireland bookmaker, Boyle Sports, has Hilton with 18/1 odds of playing Barbie.

Universal Pictures has made a deal with Mattel to develop the live-action film about Barbara Millicent Roberts.

Laurence Mark, who just produced "Julie & Julia," will produce the movie.

....Dancing With The Stars odds had singer Mya among the early favorites to win the television dance competition and she's in no danger of being eliminated after Monday night's performance. Tom DeLay, on the other hand, is a different story though we suspect he's developing a bit of a following, not to mention he's fun to have around.

From Entertainment Weekly:

Mya and Dmitry Chaplin: 27 out of possible 30 Thanks to the ''mesmerizing fluidity'' of their rumba, and perhaps Dmitry's sheer black deep-V shirt, Mya and Dmitry earned the first 10s of the season from Carrie Ann and Bruno. DANCMSTR balked that ''it was too grand with trick after trick'' (read: ''stop showing off,'') and gave them a 7. After the dance, Bruno told Mya, ''You put all of America in the mood for love. No price is too high for you.'' So she's a high-priced hooker for America? If we have the cash, do we get to join Mya in her fantasy chemistry-generating suite featuring rose petals, cheesy red and pink backdrops, and candles?
