It's Brenda, Bitch.

News about the possible return of Brenda Walsh to the new 90210 iteration has been burning up the blogosphere this morning and I can only imagine Camel Spelling isn't pleased. I'm thrilled that the world will once again be graced with the Picasso-esque eye balls of Shannen Doherty, the original Wonk-eyed tabloid oddity. Sources say "she wants to know what the story is going to be first." What difference does it make? It's not like she's been terribly busy since she hopped her broomstick and left Charmed. I did like that SciFi show she hosted where they scared the shit out of people. Shanny really didn't do much, but hey, it's a living.

The Many Moods of Camel Spelling

“As for Luke Perry, he called me ‘Camel’ because I had long eyelashes. Trust me, Luke Perry can call you ‘Camel’ and make it sexy.” Sure, Tori. As soon as I read that little chestnut from Ms. Spelling's forthcoming memoir, my instinct was to doodle a camel with Tori's, um, unforgettable face on it. As I began scribbling, it really seemed unnecessary to add the camel part since her face is so, um, unusual. I've tried to capture just a few of her many moods for you. Some other fascinating highlights from the book:

• “Shannen [Doherty] had everything, but she could be arrogant and carefree. Jennie [Garth] was outspoken when she thought Shannen was out of line. Sometimes they got along, but there were explosions. Once they got into a fistfight…..A night with [Shannen] meant going to the hottest club and drinking until the early hours. I knew she was a ‘bad influence,’ but I liked her anyway.”

• “I had an insta-crush on Brian Austen Green. Brian was the only guy on the show my age. We had something going over the years we worked together. We were always fighting, making up, having fun and hating each other. We were just young.”

• “My whole life I wanted to be normal. When I think of what I have now, it’s not the biggest of best of most anything. It’s family and love and safety. It’s work and laughter and imperfection and imperfection. It’s my normal.”
