<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">&ldquo;She may appear to you in a dream, as an apparition, or in a vision, or in a manner still unknown to this world,&rdquo; according to a statement from her publicist.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">Her fee for services beyond the grave? Just $95&mdash;less than a fourth of her hourly reading rate.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">Ms. Hoffman, a brash-talking yenta type with a penchant for leopard shoes and lingerie, has been forecasting the future for Oscar-winning actors<em>, Vogue</em> staffers, financial kingpins, and socialites for the past decade. She has boasted of <a href="http://www.truveo.com/Celebrity-Psychic-Predictions-for-2008/id/2977375214">accurately predicting</a> <strong>Angelina Jolie</strong>&rsquo;s twins, <strong>Lindsay Lohan</strong>&rsquo;s &ldquo;secret other lover, not a boyfriend,&rdquo; and <strong>Eliot Spitzer</strong>&rsquo;s downfall several months before the news broke. </span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">She was admittedly wrong about the New England Patriots winning the Super Bowl in 2008, however, humbly estimating her accuracy in an interview with <em>The Baltimore Sun</em> at around &ldquo;65 to 85 percent.&rdquo; (&ldquo;Hey, if I could do it 100 percent of the time, I&rsquo;d be living on Fifth Avenue, not Third,&rdquo; she mused.)</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">The Daily Transom first found out about Ms. Hoffman through aspiring model <strong>Gisele Bundchen</strong> at a dinner back in 1999. &ldquo;Judi said I was going to get this big contract,&rdquo; said Ms. Bundchen, then 19. A few weeks later, she landed a multimillion-dollar deal with Victoria's Secret.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">&ldquo;I did see her for a reading years ago,&rdquo; songwriter <strong>Denise Rich</strong> told the Daily Transom this week. &ldquo;She was very on, accurate. She&rsquo;s very intuitive.&rdquo;</span></p>
<p><span style="font-size: 10pt;font-family: Geneva;color: black">If Ms. Hoffman survives, she&rsquo;s scheduled to star in the Animal Planet reality show <em>Psychic in the City</em> now under development. Otherwise, her brother, Miami travel agent <strong>Dean Hoffman</strong>, has advised her, &ldquo;you need to come back and give me the winning power ball numbers.&rdquo;</span></p>
