Atty: Blago's wife mulling reality TV spot

An attorney says ousted Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich's wife is considering being on reality TV after her indicted husband was barred from traveling to Costa Rica to be on a show.

Blagojevich attorney Sheldon Sorosky said Monday that NBC has offered Patti Blagojevich a spot on "I'm a Celebrity ... Get Me Out of Here" but she hasn't reached a deal.

NBC spokesman Gary Mednick says the network isn't commenting "at this time."

Sorosky says he has "no idea" whether Patti Blagojevich will agree to be on the show, but says he'll "let everybody know" when he does.

Federal Judge James B. Zagel has barred the former governor himself from leaving the country to do the show pending his political corruption trial in Chicago.
