Diablo Cody: Don't Pimp Me ... or my Feet!

Posted Feb 23rd 2008 1:30PM by TMZ Staff

Her name's not Diablo for nothin'! Diablo Cody -- the "Juno" screenwriter and former stripper is flaming hot at Stuart Weitzman for getting her in the middle of a publicity stunt she claims she wasn't aware of.

Every year, Weitzman makes a pair of "Cinderella" shoes to be worn at the Oscars by a rising female star. This year he chose Cody, and she agreed to sport the special shoes. Then she found out they were made with 1,800 Kwiat diamonds -- and worth a million-dollars!

Cody wrote on her myspace blog: "I'm actually really pissed about this, now that I think about it. They're using me to publicize their stupid shoes and nobody asked me. I would never consent to a lame publicity stunt at a time when I already want to hide. I'm sorry if I sound like a party-pooper, but Jeebus."

Maybe she wants to wear clear, six-inch Lucite heels instead!

3. Wow. This chick should enjoy her 15 minutes of fame. Can't wait to see wait she wears at the Oscars, former strippers always have the best taste in clothes.

4. She's lucky someone gives enough of a crap about her to give her a pair of shoes..Juno wasn't that great and it's going to get shut down in all the major categories. After Sunday the former stripper will be begging Shauna Sand to let her borrow the lucies.

5. Emo wannabe chcks are never happy. She can cut her ankles with the diamonds or something to express her angst.

8. she didn't wake up one day to discover that space aliens had committed her to doing this. She knowingly agreed to it. If she subsequently changed her mind, she should have told Weitzman privately. If she did ask Weitzman and he refused to let her out of the agreement, then she should have not said anything, fulfill the agreement she made and next time think twice about what she commits to. Instead, she acts like a two-year-old throwing a tantrum. Gee, who wouldn't want to work with her in the future?

9. I took an instant dislike to this girl when I saw her on Letterman. What an idiot. It is a privilege to be selected and honestly, what a poor choice by Stuart Weitzman. Somebody paid Somebody obviously. That chick is so unoriginal. She's a dime-a-dozen SilverLake clique chick. What a stupid story about a clueless ingrate.

10. this woman sounds ungrateful/disrespectful and stupid. she agrees to wear the shoes and then changed her mind and bad mouthed the company's shoes. she seriously didn't know that all those celebs walking the read carpet are basically adverts for whatever designer they're wearing? if she didn't know that wouldn't she at least wonder why someone would let her wear such nice expensive shoes before she agreed to wear them? i can't believe this slow thinker had anything to do with writing a script.

11. Why is she still using her slutty stripper name? She shoved her script up her twat, came to Hollywood and spread her legs for anyone who would read it!

Posted at 5:39PM on Feb 23rd 2008 by Oh*No!!!

12. Her name is NOT Diablo Cody that's her nom-de-stripper. Her real name is Brook Hunt.

13. She has accomplished much more than those of you who are mocking her can ever hope to achieve. Her first movie earns more than a 100 million dollars and has several Oscar nominations. She has proved that you do not have to be a hollywood insider to succeed." Kudos to you Diablo you are an inspiration to the rest of us ordinary people"

14. No wonder she is an EX-STRIPPER. Yuck! And what's more weird is a stripper who doesn't like attention?
