Fox Takes Advice From 9-Yr-Old — Or At Least Pays For It

In its quest to scoop up all available and desirable properties, 20th Century Fox has picked a 9-year-old’s pamphlet called “How to Talk to Girls,” the Hollywood Reporter reports.

Alex Greven, who attends school in Castle Rock, Colorado, wrote “Girls” as a handwritten, $3 pamphlet sold at his school book fair; he wrote it after he noticed his peers were having some trouble talking to the ladies, though the book is geared for all ages.

Among the snippets of advice: Comb your hair and don’t wear sweats; control your hyperness and cut down on sugar if necessary; a crush is like a love disease that can drive you mad; it is easy to spot pretty girls because they have big earrings, fancy dresses and all the jewelry but are like cars that need a lot of oil.

Maybe such pearls can attract the Farrelly brothers, who can bring it some R-rated if not X-rated attention. After all, they did it with “There’s Something About Mary.”

Now wouldn’t that be nice for the kiddies?
