A long time ago on a blog not very far away, you may have seen a stripper by the name of Diablo Cody become America's Sweetheart for one night by charming the pants off David Letterman. Well, after somehow parlaying her book about life on the pole into a Hollywood screenwriting career, she's now charming the pants off the rest of the country with her feel good hit of the year, "Juno", a movie about a sassy pregnant teen who apparently loves to look at cocks. The New York Times does add that the film's got serious Oscar buzz (even if they can't say the name of her blog) and Cody may become the first former stripper to win an Academy Award for Best Screenplay. What do you want bet that Jack Nicholson is the first one in line to "congratulate" her?
