I'm not the first Hollywood insider to make the observation that Hollywood and Washington market their respective products with similar slickness, and I'm definitely not the first to suggest that D.C. politicos often borrow from the celebrity PR playbook.
But here in Hollywood, we expect the spin, the question dodging, the shamelessly untruthful statements ("Though divorcing, my client and her ex-husband remain best of friends," "My client checked into the hospital due to exhaustion").
Hollywood, after all, is the land of fantasy, the world's dream factory, the place where fame-seeking civilians like Brad Pitt and thousands before him have moved with the dream of reinventing themselves (with the help of image handlers, of course) as the Sexiest Perfect People Alive.
