Amazon Studios is currently working on the movie Linda and Monica, which no doubt spark interest among the politically inclined. While it’s been reported that Dakota Fanning and Shailene Woodley are trying to get the part of Monica Lewinsky, the real Linda Trip is voicing her opinion on the matter.

“They should check John Goodman’s availability,” she said, referring to when he played her on SNL. “It’s unlikely they’ll show Bill Clinton as a predator exploiting a willing young girl . . . She consented. She instigated. But she was a kid.”

“When Monica was threatening to expose the affair and told the president I knew about it, he sicced [deputy counsel] Bruce Lindsey on me,” Linda said to Page Six. “I knew from that point on it was going to be dicey… . They might be surprised to see what I look like today. That hulking person no longer exists. I’m happy now and not eating myself into oblivion to relieve stress.”

She hasn’t spoken to Monica in several years: “I hope [the producers] do her justice, because she’s a lovely, intelligent girl — just lacking a moral compass.”
