Connie Britton as the Morally Corrupt Faye Resnick® in American Crime Story: The People v. O.J. Simpson!
When it was announced that Connie Britton was playing Faye Resnick, the biggest devil-hearted fame whore of the 90s who used her friend’s murder to get fame and money, I wondered if maybe a discarded Muppet puppet in a wig wasn’t available for the part. Because Connie Britton is as far from Faye Rensick as O.J. Simpson’s brain is from reality. Faye popped up in the first episode of American Crime Story and I didn’t see it then either. But last night’s episode focused a bit on Faye “writing” her first of two books about Nicole Brown Simpson and O.J. Simpson before the trial even started and Connie truly brought her coked-up shameless whoriness to life.
Only four months after the murders, Faye earned her title as the Morally Corrupt Faye Resnick (copyright: Camille Grammer) when she released a book about Nicole Simpson that had ESCANDALOSO details about her dead friend’s life. On last night’s episode of American Crime Story, they showed Faye spilling bits of Nicole’s life to the two dudes who wrote the book, one of which was Mike Walker from The National Enquirer and was played by one of the Dead Gay Sons from Heathers. Faye tried to act like she was putting out the book to help victims of domestic abuse when everyone knew she was putting it out to help her checking account. Connie still doesn’t look anything like Faye, but she perfectly captured Faye’s coke-scratched voice and her sleepy eyes that say, “I’ve got a pharmacy in my purse!”
Here’s a clip (via E!) of Connie as Faye selling her best-selling book of trash to the 600-year-old lizard in suspenders Larry King (who played himself). The interview is nothing like the real interview Faye did with Larry, but Connie still nailed it. (UPDATE: The video is embedding all wonky, but if you want to see that one and another one of Connie as Faye, E! has them.)
Finally, the injection of CAMP I’ve been waiting for. Viva Connie Britton! (And now I really want to see her as Teresa Giudice in a no-budget Lifetime biopic.)
