Rooney Mara

In the past few years, the most sought after role in Hollywood was of Lisbeth Salander , the hero of "The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo."  While many big movie stars auditioned for the part, producers cast a relative unknown, Rooney Mara, in the coveted role.  Problem is, Mara isn't such an unknown. Not to football fans anyway.  This "actress" is the a great-granddaughter of the founders of two historic N.F.L. franchises--the NY Giants and the Pittsburgh Steelers:  Tim Mara & Art Rooney . (I'm not sure how f*ck she has the name of both grandparents-kinda creepy.)


 The  Mara's & Rooneys still own these teams, which means, of course, Rooney Mara comes from money.  Big money.  Big, I'm really f-ing jealous of money. While the N.F.L. and Hollywood are two different entities, how much would you bet some free corporate box Superbowl seats were sent over to the "Girl" casting director in exchange for Rooney Mara's "audition."
