Question: If Rodney Dangerfield is cloned, does he then get twice the disrespect?

Dangerfield has met with members of the alien-obsessed Raelian cult about cloning himself, reports the New York Post.

Dangerfield and his wife, Joan, reportedly met with Brigitte Boisselier, the CEO of Clonaid, at their L.A. home to talk about copying the comic. Boisselier made headlines in January when she announced that her company had cloned a baby girl named Eve, a claim that has never been proven.

"Rodney and I are clone-curious," Joan Dangerfield told the Post. "They said they could create a clone of Rodney by taking a swab of cells from Rodney's cheek. ... They said they wouldn't charge us anything."
