Many people were surprised by Bruce Willis’s weekend nuptials to Emma Heming. I looked at the story with an “oh, I bet she’s knocked up” sort of attitude. The celebrity weeklies and gossip sites are scrambling to find some dirt on this girl. And what they found is a little funny, because I seem to recall a similar story being told about Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes. Apparently Bruce met Emma on a “casting call” for his 2007 film Perfect Stranger. Casting call, eh? Sure it wasn’t the “casting couch”? OK! has more:
It’s always been a bit unclear as to how Bruce Willis met his new wife, model Emma Heming. Reps for the actor have said the pair have mutual friends, but a new story has a slightly wilder tale to tell.
A story from Wednesday morning’s NY Post alleges that the Die Hard superstar actually met the 30-year-old beauty when he was casting for lovely ladies to star in his 2007 erotic techno-thriller flop Perfect Stranger.
“He personally went through head shots and when the girls were called in to ‘read,’ he was there in the meeting,” the Post quotes a source as saying. “It was odd for the star of a movie to do so, but at the time he was single and I guess he needed a date.”
Though he didn’t begin dating Heming right away (that honor went to another actress, Tamara Feldman), she did score a minor role in the movie. The story claims that Willis eventually began dating both Emma and Tamara until he ultimately made his choice. Not surprisingly, Bruce’s rep had nothing to say on the claims made by the newspaper.

Emma didn’t even get the part! That girl doesn’t know how to work the casting couch. Or maybe she does – why put the “work” into getting the part, when you could just snag a rich husband. Am I right, ladies? Seriously, am I right? I have no idea how any of that “snagging a rich husband” stuff works, or else I would be drinking pina coladas on some tropical island right now. I’m so jealous of Emma. She’s a lot smarter than me.
