DENZEL WASHINGTON: THE BIGSCREEN DR JAN ADAMS?
We’re betting the sordid story of Dr Jan Adams, the plastic surgeon who operated on Kanye West’s mother before she died, is inspiring countless writers. Since Dr Adams’ alleged history of malpractice suits and unfettered womanizing started unreeling, he has been revealed to be a fascinating character. Apparently his female patients were so enthralled with him that many overlooked his surgical shortcomings. Good looking, obsessively ambitious, oozing charm and magnetism, and an accomplished liar. What a movie the Jan Adams story will make! Chances are, SOMBODY is already pitching the juicy role to Denzel Washington.

Of course SOMBODY (sic) is.
This is Hollywood, where an original thought is about as rare as a pair of “original” breasts.

Denzel wouldn’t play that trashy part.

Dr Adams was on Oprahs show as one of the top doctors in the country! Maybe she got caught up in his charm too. The sad thing is that Kanye’s mom may have watched the show and trusted Oprahs word like everybody else does, without checking him out. How very sad.

Oprah needs to start screening her guests’. The writer wrote a bogus book, Jerry Seinfelds wife wrote a bogus book and now a bogus doctor.

Oprah doesnt perform background checks on her guests, her large production staff is supposed to do that
This man was featured on several talk shows not just Oprah, so why Oprah’s name is being thrown around in the conversation is not clear to me.
IMO, this story, tragic as it is, is not juicy or interesting enough to make a movie or book.
A Vanity Fair expose, might be interesting.

It is a shame that women are dying to be “perfect”. His mom was an educated, intelligent woman who got caught up in the beauty trap.

They are only pitching this to denzel because he’s black> This is a prime example of racism in hollywood and how it still exists

THAT DOCTOR IS GETTING A BUM RAP. FIRST OF ALL – DOCTORS ARE NOT GOD. SECOND IT SOUNDS LIKE ANESTHESIA PLAYED A LARGE ROLL IN THIS. THIRD – HE IS EXCELLENT ON HIS TV SHOW. THE MEDIA IS THROWING HIS NAME IN THE MUD. DONDA WEST WAS NOT SUCH A HEALTH CONCIOUS WOMAN. I’LL BET SHE LIED TO GET HER SURGERY. I FEEL FOR THIS DOCTOR. PS KANYE IS A PUNK.
