Let's [NOT] do the time warp again! Please?!

MTV readies 'Rocky Horror' redux - Entertainment News, Film News, Media - Variety: "MTV is doing the time warp on a remake of 1975 cult classic 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show.'"

Since MTV and Fox Television seem hell bent on "tampering with things with which man was not meant to tamper," I throw down the following unthinkable challenge.

If you had to cast The Rocky Horror Picture Show today, who would you cast for which part(s)? Be as creative, wacky or outrageous as you want-- you're the producer. Put your dream cast in the comments.

I, for example, would take "Eddie" (originally played by Meatloaf), swap the gender (a la Battlestar Galactica), and then cast troubled chanteuse Amy Winehouse as "Edie."
