Donna Martin Graduates To New 90210

Tori Spelling AKA Donna Martin, was on the set of 90210 this past Tuesday shooting scenes for the 19th episode of the show. Spelling was filming with Jennie Garth, who's somewhat of a semi-regular.

Donna is said to be having marital problems with husband David. Let's see how this plays out.

Jessica Stroup, who plays Donna's sister in law, Silver was also spotted shooting scenes that day.

I thought episode 19 was the one Jason Priestley was directing? His episode is supposed to be fierce.

Sheesh, why didn't Shannen Doherty show up for this one?

Edward Cullen And Bella Swan Dolls

Tonner Dolls are in the midst of releasing the authorized figures of Twilight sweethearts, Edward 'Vampire" Cullen and Bella "Mortal Girl" Swan.

The dolls are supposed to be in the likeness of the two stars of the film, Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Maybe there's a smidgen of Robert in his doll, but the Bella one does not look like Kristen @ all, I think.

The price for these individuals? $125 a piece and pre-orders have been going on for a couple of weeks now. Who knows? They may even be selling them outright.

How I Met Your Mother Gals Preggers Together

Last night @ the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences in North Hollywood, three of the stars of that great show, How I Met Your Mother, were on hand to promote their show.

Neil Patrick Harris, Alyson Hannigan, and Cobie Smulders were decked out in fine gear as they posed for press. Hannigan and Smulders showed off their baby bumps. Their pregnancies will not be written into the storylines; so I read somewhere.

For those who haven't watched the HIMYM, you must check it out. It's totally good and very humorous. The story telling is fabulous; the way this show does it.

New Kids Touring This Spring

The fab 5, New Kids on the Block, are coming back to the US this spring to dazzle their fans once again.

Celebuzz has the details, including the dates, places, and when tickets will go on sale.

Sadly, they will not return to the bay area. The closest venues the guys will be performing will be in Reno and Los Angeles.

So if you were debating about buying the New Kids track jacket, you'll have to track it down south.

JenCon New Face Of Revlon

Actress Jennifer Connelly was in Brooklyn on Friday shooting a commercial for Revlon.

Connelly is the latest star to join the list of celebrities advertising the cosmetics giant.

The 38 year old mother of two is part of the ensemble cast of the Drew Barrymore produced film, He's Just Not That Into You, opening February 6th.

She won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress a few years back, right?

Marisa Tomei Is How Old?

I had to check her imdb page to make sure; Marisa Tomei is 44 years old. I don't know why I'm so stunned; she's been in the business for a while now.

And she looks really good for her age.

Remember Untamed Heart with Christian Slater? God, I don't know why I loved that movie so much when it came out.

I'll always remember her as Maggie on The Cosby Show spinoff, A Different World. She was only on for one season, I think.

Tomei attended the Screen Actors Guild Awards last night with her boyfriend, Logan Marshall Green.

Molly Ringwald's Double Bundle Of Joys

People magazine reported that actress Molly Ringwald will be welcoming not one, but two babies later this year. Ringwald and her husband will add a brother and a sister for 5 year old daughter Mathilda.

She currently stars as the mom on ABC Family's 'The Secret Life of the American Teenager'.

I remember the short lived sitcom Molly did with Lauren Graham and Jenna Elfman on ABC years ago. It was called Townies and they played best friends who worked in a diner together. Was I the only one who watched that? I would record it on VHS if I wasn't planning on being home when it aired. And you know what? I was rummaging through my VHS archives a while back and came across one of the episodes! What a find.

Back to Molly's twins: she should so name them Blaine and Andie!

Twilight Empire Outtakes

So many magazines that Twilight cast members have been featured on the last few months have been wowing fans with outtakes from their photoshoots.

Vanity Fair, InStyle, and Entertainment Weekly have been doing it here and there and so has Empire Magazine.

Below are just a few outtakes from the Empire shoot featuring Robert Pattinson, Kristen Stewart, Taylor Lautner, Rachelle LaFevre, and Cam Gigandet.

Sarah Jessica Parker's Brisk Walk

Sex and the City star and producer Sarah Jessica Parker was snapped along the West Village in New York this morning as she was walking her son, James Wilkie to school.

Now what kind of pants is that little boy wearing? They're not pajamas, right?

Parker recently commented that she and her husband, Matthew Broderick don't bother addressing their alleged marital woes since they're false.

And it isn't exactly set in stone that a sequel is set for their blockbuster foursome movie. Guess we'll just have to wait and see on that one still.

Ross And Hathaway Back On ER

Entertainment Tonight reported yesterday that George Clooney was taping a special appearance for the series finale of ER, the show that made him a bonafide star.

It was also reported that Clooney's co-star, Julianna Margulies will be making a return as well.

The set will be closed when the guest spots are filmed.

Noah Wylie is set return in a future episode and Anthony Edwards, Laura Innes, and Alex Kingston did their part earlier this season. What about Eriq LaSalle and Sherry Stringfield (Susan!)?

That would be so good and I can't wait to watch.

Clooney played pediatrician Doug Ross who settled with Nurse Carol Hathaway and their twin daughters in Washington. Their characters were briefly mentioned last season when Gloria Reuben's character, Jeannie, asked about them.

ER's final episode airs Thursday, April 2.

Party Of 3

Last night @ Blue Plate in Santa Monica, Alias star Jennifer Garner and husband Ben Affleck had dinner with their oldest daughter, 3 year old Violet.

Baby daughter Seraphina, who was born a couple of weeks ago sat this one out.

Mr. Affleck can be seen on the big screen when 'He's Just Not That Into You' opens on February 6th.

Peter And Jennie's Night Out

Husband and wife duo Peter Facinelli and Jennie Garth stepped out last night for some alone time by having dinner @ Katsu-Ya in Los Angeles.

The couple have three daughters together; Luca, Lola, & Fiona.

Garth currently stars as Kelly Taylor on 90210 (she'll appear in tonight's episode) and Facinelli is set to reprise his vampire role as Dr. Carlisle Cullen in New Moon later this year.

These two have been together since 1995! Hep Hep Hooray!

Private Practice Still On The Air

I've been wondering about that and why it can't hold my interest.

I love Tim Daly and Amy Brenneman is a wonderful actress but still.

It shocks me that they keep this and not Dirty Sexy Money.

And I'm so hoping Lipstick Jungle gets a reprieve. More Andrew McCarthy, please.

Venti Latte

I'm halfway done with my latte and man is it giving me a stomachache!

Whew!

Working Gossip Girl Actors

Photographed out on the chilly streets of New York City yesterday, cast members of Gossip Girl were bundled up in their big puffy black coats in between filming their scenes.

Blake Lively was out with Leighton Meester.

Penn Badgley was chatting with Chace Crawford.

And Jessica Szohr was walking around carrying her dog.

No sign of Ed Westwick or Taylor Momsen.

President Obama

Barack Obama was just inaugurated as the 44th President of the United States moments ago.

Wow!

Kristen Stewart Arrives In Utah

Arriving on Sunday in Utah for the annual Sundance Film Festival, Kristen Stewart was spotted with her dad to promote her latest film, Adventureland.

She'll be in town a couple days or so for the screening and participate in more interviews. She's probably thrilled about that.

Do you think her interviews will just consist of questions about Adventureland? I'm sure reporters will sneak in some Twilight and New Moon inquiries.

MLK And Barack

Today is Martin Luther King Day and he would have turned 80 years old last Thursday.

And tomorrow is Inauguration Day which means that Barack Obama will take over as President of the United States.

Millions have flocked to DC to witness the historic moment when Obama is sworn in. So much enthusiasm is in the air.

Let's see what the next 4 years bring...

Kate And Leo In London

Actors Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet were @ the London premiere of their current film, Revolutionary Road earlier this evening @ the Leicester Square.

Of course it was one week ago today when Kate finally nabbed her Best Actress award @ the Golden Globes for her portrayal of April Wheeler, suburban housewife.

The film is based on the Richard Yates novel set in the 1950's about a young couple with two kids living in Connecticut trying to desperately seal the cracks in their crumbling marriage.

Revolutionary Road was directed by Sam Mendes, husband to Kate.

All I know is she better get that Oscar too.

More Vanity Fair Outtakes With Twilight Stars

Another round of outtakes from the Vanity Fair shoot were released recently featuring the stars of Twilight.

That is a lot. I don't think I've seen so many outtakes from one shoot published in some form. It shows just how in demand these pictures are. And to think there are tons more we'll probably never get to see.

More than a few of course feature main stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Stewart is set to appear @ the Sundance Film Festival to promote her upcoming film, Adventureland.

The Smell

So I was on my home from Seattle last night and the brief flight was filled with an unpleasant odor.

I settled in my seat by the window and started to read my novel. Minutes passed and I noticed that I was inhaling a scent that was definitely not refreshing. It wasn't freesia or the peel of a citrusy orange. Nor was it cologne or perfume. I knew what it was instantly without glancing over to confirm my suspicion. It was funky feet.

I cocked my head to the side and slightly turned to pretend I was glancing out my window into the darkness of the sky. The window of course had a reflection due to the blackness outside and the dim of the light inside. I then saw the culprit; the bare foot slipped inside of a sandal perched atop the gentleman's other leg. I made a hissing sound.

Please! No! I thought to myself. I faced the other way and hunched over a little leaning to my left side. Luckily, the flight wasn't full and there wasn't an occupant in the middle seat. Of course I knew I couldn't keep the current position I put myself in for the duration of the nearly two hour flight.

I'd seen that the bare sandled foot transitioned to the floor but that did not help. At all. I'd breathe into my scarf for support but that started to get suffocating.

I could have moved but the lights were dimmed and the cabin crew kept walking up and down the aisle taking drink orders and then passing out Ritz crackers and then coming down with the beverage cart. I was trapped. Enduring the smell and causing my face to crease and frown was the option I was left with.

I eyed the smelly feet guy as we made our way through the terminal. I shook my head.

Lesson to be learned kids; make sure you wash your feet before having it exposed to others in somewhat enclosed spaces.

Rufus And Lily Run Into Dan And Serena

Another new episode of Gossip Girl airs tomorrow on the CW and the kids of Constance Billiard and St. Jude find out if they get into their precious dream school, Yale University.

Blair (Leighton Meester) has trouble accepting a B from her new Lit teacher who has a fangirl in Serena (Blake Lively) and a maybe crush on S' boyfriend, Dan (Penn Badgley)?

In this sneek peak provided to you, Dan picks up Serena for school and they have an awkward moment with their respective parents, Rufus (Matthew Settle) and Lily (Kelly Rutherford), who have just spent the night together getting busy.

Wow! So D & S are dating, their little siblings, Jenny (Taylor Momsen) and Eric (Connor Paulo) act as if they're brother and sister, their parents are also dating each other, and Lily and Rufus have an older son together who is presumed to be dead but really isn't. Sounds sick but it really isn't. Yet.

Oh, and Nate and Vanessa go to the opera.

Jessica And Justin Takin' A Walk

A supposed warm day out in Los Angeles today, Jessica Biel and boyfriend Justin Timberlake took her dog out for a nice walk.

The duo were fashionably sporty looking as they strolled along.

These two have been going out a long time, huh?

Gossip Girl Cast Freezing It Up

Four of the stars of the CW hit show, Gossip Girl were out on the streets of New York City earlier today.

Penn Badgley and real life girlfriend Blake Lively were seen coming out of their trailer all bundled up.

Blake must have had some wave of cold rush through her. She was in LA this past weekend to present @ the Golden Globe Awards where the weather was nice and warm.

Leighton Meester and Jessica Szohr were walking around looking really cold. Especially Meester.

An all new episode of Gossip Girl airs next Monday.

Whew! What A Relief!

So now it's being said that Vanessa Hudgens didn't even audition for a part in New Moon. The studio behind the film and reps for Hudgens both agree that rumored audition did not take place according to Entertainment Weekly.

The film's screenwriter, Melissa Rosenberg stated she hasn't written anything for Leah Clearwater, the character Hudgens was allegedly eyeing.

New Moon is set to begin filming in March in Canada and Italy.

Where have Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart been hiding? No one's captured them in print since early December. Stewart was @ the Joan Jett concert New Year's Eve in Washington prepping for her role as the rock star in The Runaways. She was seen watching from the side of the stage with Twilight co-star Nikki Reed.

Ashley Greene Ready For New Moon

Twilight co-star Ashley Greene, who plays Alice Cullen, spoke out a little bit about the upcoming sequel, New Moon and spilled about Robert Pattinson's shorter hair @ the In Style after party for the Golden Globes on Sunday.

OMG! Twilight Starlet Hating on Pattinson's Buzz Cut Mon., Jan. 12, 2009 6:40 PM PST by Marc Malkin

Ashley Greene still thinks Twilight star Robert Pattinson is "totally adorable," but she's not thrilled he cut off his signature long locks.

"I heard he got in trouble for cutting his hair," Greene, who will return in the much-anticipated Twilight follow-up, New Moon, as vampire beauty Alice Cullen, told us last night at the In Style/WB Golden Globes afterparty. "But what can I say? I like guys with longer hair."She promises not to raz the British hottie too much about the new 'do.

"I think he's getting enough flack, I'm sure," she said. "I mean his every move is recorded and photographed and documented, so I'm not going to give him a hard time."

Greene says she and the rest of the cast couldn't be happier that new director Chris Weitz has re-signed Taylor Lautner as Jacob.

"Everyone loves him," Greene said. "I think it's absolutely ridiculous to think that someone could replace him." (Lautner continued his quest to beef up for the role by downing ravioli and lasagna from Bertolli Oven Bake Meals on Friday at Access Hollywood's "Stuff You Must..." gifting suite).

A New Moon script is still being finalized, but Greene says she's been assured by people in the know that Weitz & Co. aren't straying far from the novel. "They're keeping it fairly close to the book, which is great for me, because if you read it, I'm definitely in it," Greene said. "It's difficult to put that large of a book into a screenplay and put it on film and capture what everyone's thinking. It's difficult, but they're trying their best."

Natalie Portman Out West

Cool girl Natalie Portman was snapped last night in Los Angeles grabbing a meal with an unidentified male friend.

What she's doing on this side of the pond is beyond me.

Oh, I just watched Closer again with her, Julia Roberts, Clive Owen & Jude Law. So gooood!

Wentworth's Been Canceled

Fox announced that this will be the final season for Prison Break starring Wentworth Miller.

That's all.

Gossip Girl Star Vogues In February

Blake Lively graces the February issue of Vogue out on newsstands very soon.

21 year old Lively is the star of the fashion enriched show, Gossip Girl and has a couple of films coming out this year.

She's a part of the ensemble of actors who participated in 'New York, I Love You' as well as 'The Private Lives of Pippa Lee' co-starring Robyn Wright Penn, Julianne Moore, Winona Ryder, Keanu Reeves & Alan Arkin. Blake will portray the young Pippa Lee to Wright Penn's adult version.

And Gossip Girl is getting really good again. Last week's show got me re-interested and last night's was just as good. The producers are on the hunt for a hot looking guy to play the half brother of Serena, Eric, Dan & Jenny. And who knows what capacity Michelle Trachtenberg will play when she returns as Georgina Sparks later this season. Rivalry with Blair Waldorf, I hope.

Another Grey's Exit

Actress Melissa George will be leaving Grey's Anatomy per Entertainment Weekly.

George played intern Sadie, old friend of Meredith Grey (Ellen Pompeo) and current girl crush of Callie Torres (Sara Ramirez). Guess the latter won't turn into anything.

I liked Melissa's character on the show and wished she was just given more to do. I can see why she opted to not extend her stay and move on to something else.

And T.R. Knight's George character didn't have anything @ all last week. No wonder there's rumors flying about his desire to jump ship.

But I still watch. Half-heartedly.

Please!!! No!!!

I don't know about this. Sources say that High School Musical chick Vanessa Hudgens auditioned for the part of werewolf Leah Clearwater in the upcoming Twilight sequel, New Moon.

I don't know about this. Alice Cullen herself, Ashley Greene supposedly endorses the maybe addition saying Hudgens would do a great job. Such a politically correct response. She's so Alice!

All I know is they better show Alice in that stolen yellow Porsche zooming her way through Italy with Bella. That's a plus to making this sequel; more Alice!

Fresco Burrito?

I tore myself away from my desk a little while ago to get something bad to eat for lunch.

I noticed it is unseasonably warm outside. I thought some high winds were supposed to pick up? I knew I should have worn shorter sleeves this morning.

I settled on Taco Bell and also had to buy my favorite Frutista Freeze! Did you know that drink is only 30 calories? I thought it was going to be well over a hundred. I would have to cycle for about 10 minutes to burn that drink off. I also tried the fresco chicken burrito. It was okay.

And I'm @ like 6% on my DVR.

Kate Winslet Rocks

Actress Kate Winslet hit a double whammy last night @ the 66th Golden Globe Awards in Beverly Hills. Not only did she win Best Supporting Actress for The Reader @ the start of the show, but she also took home Best Actress in a Drama for Revolutionary Road. And very well deserved on both counts.

I haven't seen Reader yet but I managed to see Revolutionary Road yesterday before the GG telecast and it was really good. Very depressing but both Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio did outstanding. I can't gush about these two enough and hope that Kate goes on to finally take the Oscar.

The Golden Globes wasn't as boring as past shows in my opinion.

Most of the highlights did take place prior to (and maybe after) the telecast.

Like what was up with Drew Barrymore and Jessica Lange clutching to each other like no tomorrow on the red carpet and during their presentation? Did they go take a little somethin' somethin'?

Also, I saw the infamous Ryan Seacrest snub by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. He was talking to Beyonce and suddenly brushed her off to run down from his post to get a few words from the couple but they didn't even look his way. And then you can see Billy Bush from Access Hollywood stop them on their way inside for a quick chat. Ouch to RS.

Both Pitt and Jolie were nominated for Best Actor & Best Actress and as Sarah Clark sarcastically just said on the radio from Sarah & Vinnie (Alice @ 97.3); Neither one won and they don't need awards. They're better than all of us. Now that was funny stuff.

And I also caught Blake Lively and Anne Hathaway get entangled in each other's dresses while waiting to be interviewed by Seacrest. Or was it more of Lively getting caught up in Hathaway's dress while Anne attempted to walk forward? But alas, neither one fell over.

Katie Holmes managed to make it to the after parties with husband Tom Cruise. Holmes wrapped up her gig in All My Sons last night in New York and quickly jetted over to So. Cal.

Jennifer Lopez wore something too foily and what was up with Renee Zellweger?

What's Going On

So it's another Saturday morning here in F-mont. The sun is shining but it's still chilly outside. I'm all dressed to run my weekend errands. I debated about working this morning because I have loads of stuff to do. But I decided against it opting for time with little drummer girl. Maybe tomorrow.

Man, I should really start running again.

The Golden Globes are on tomorrow. I hope it isn't boring.

Courteney Cox And Jennifer Aniston Tex Mexin'

After spending almost a week together in Mexico for New Years, Friends co-stars Courteney Cox and Jennifer Aniston were spotted dining @ Marix Tex Mex last night in West Hollywood.

They don't get sick of each other?

Oh, and I've also been to Marix and that place is also a small, quaint establishment. Good food, too. Aniston has been a fan of this place forever.

Donna Martin Graduates To New 90210

A-ha! So we will see another (almost) original cast member pop up on the CW's 90210.

Entertainment Weekly is reporting that Tori Spelling aka Donna Martin (Silver) will make an appearance on the show. I don't know when, where, and for how long. But she better have screen time with both Shannen and Jennie!

Claire should come back. And Valerie Malone! I so want to see Tiffani Thiessen and Shannen Doherty on screen together. That would be grrr-eat.

Did something go wrong with Tiffani and Jennie Garth? They were BFF's. Jennie introduced Thiessen to her husband and I never saw a picture of her @ that wedding. And they used to go to events together. Kelly Kapowski was even there when Jennie delivered her two older daughters, right? I'm curious.

Twilight DVD Released In March

Summit Entertainment is planning to release the much anticipated Twilight DVD on March 21st.

That's exciting for some, isn't it? It'll also be on BluRay! Buy your machines now so you can have the bestest image!

The DVD is supposed to be packed with extra footage, behind the scenes stuff, extended scenes, and other goodies. But doesn't it seem like a lot of that extra stuff is on YouTube?

Also, director Chris Weitz reported on Stephanie Meyer's official website that Taylor Lautner will continue as Jacob Black in New Moon, joining lead stars Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart. I heard Peter Facinelli will be back as Carlisle. They better use Ashley Greene as Alice still.

And Pattinson has opted out of filming Parts Ber Billion this month so he can focus more on his role as Edward Cullen in New Moon, which is already in pre-production. Filming will start in March. You know that the paparazzi will hella be on their tails now more than before.

Brad Pitt Covers W

Almost like his Rolling Stone cover, Brad Pitt's face is close up on the February edition of W magazine.

I can slowly start to notice that he's aging. He still looks good but there's that difference.

Oh well. Pitt also decides to weigh in on the whole ancient Brad, Jen, Angelina mix. He says he didn't go have an affair with Jolie while he was married to Ansiton. Okay.

And he concedes that Jen and him still "check in with each other."

Cuz he says that's life, man.

JenBen Have Baby Girl

Jennifer Garner and her husband, Ben Affleck welcomed another daughter yesterday in Los Angeles.

The newest addition joins older sister, Violet.

Baby Affleck's name hasn't been released yet. What about Chrysanthemum?

Leighton Meester Films In Central Park

Gossip Girl siren Leighton Meester was out in Central Park this morning shooting scenes as Blair Waldorf.

Joining her was her "dad" Harold and Dorota, her other sidekick next to Serena. Dorota should so be in the opening credits already. We see her more than Nate and Vanessa!

Did you watch last night's episode? I thought it was really good. Maybe because Aaron didn't pop up on screen. I mean, seriously, his character blows.

Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick do so good playing opposite each other. There's so much angst between Chuck and Blair.

And Dan (Penn Badgley) and Serena (Blake Lively) got back together. I'm glad about that. I just hope they don't break them up again since it is their 3rd time trying to make it work in less than two years. But now that it's been revealed they share a sibling, how high is the EWWWW! factor? Rufus was certainly a little grossed out when he caught them coming from Dan's room after they had just done it.

Spoiler maybe: There are rumors that Rufus and Lily's child had died and that it was a boy. There are also rumors that Georgina Sparks may be their long lost kid. But didn't Dan & her "do stuff?"

Anne And Kate Premiere Bride Wars

Bride Wars stars Anne Hathaway and Kate Hudson turned up in NYC last night to premiere their film, which opens on Friday.

Hathaway and Hudson have been hitting the promotional circuit in New York to drum up some business with moviegoers.

Bride Wars is about two engaged best friends who are each others maids of honor but trouble ensues when they both end up with the same wedding date.

Jen, Courteney, Sheryl, And Laura

Continuing their New Year's celebration in Cabo, Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox were hitting up the beach on Friday with friends Sheryl Crow and Laura Dern.

Dern's husband, Ben Harper was also there with their two children and Crow brought along her young son, Wyatt.

David Arquette was seen pooling it up with his and Courteney's daughter, Coco.

For the second weekend in a row, Jennifer's movie with Owen Wilson, Marley & Me, came in @ number 1. I went to see the flick earlier this week and it was really good.

John Mayer was said to have left Cabo New Year's Day with his brothers.

Sheesh, these women are all so fit.

Pregnant Kelly Rutherford Divorcing

TMZ first reported that ex Melrose Place star Kelly Rutherford has filed for divorce from her husband of two years, Daniel Giersch.

Rutherford is about a quarter's way pregnant with their second child. Son Hermes is two years old and still being breast fed by mama Kelly.

I read on imdb a while back that this dude wasn't a very good tipper.

Kelly currently plays Lily van Der Woodsen Bass on Gossip Girl.

It's 2009! And Kelly And Brenda Are Back On 90210

This is why I continue to watch and support 90210; Jennie Garth and Shannen Doherty will reprise their original roles as Kelly Taylor and Brenda Walsh.

Last we left these two, Brenda admitted to Kelly that she slept with teacher Ryan, who Kelly had dated. In the new episode slated to air on January 6, the former BFFers will unite to support troubled teen Adrianna.

As for the other storylines? I don't know too much. A girl may possibly come between Silver & Dixon and Ethan & Annie have yet to nuk-nuk. And is Harry's first born son really who he claims to be?

The eppy which is titled Hello, Goodbye, Amen airs on the CW.

Check out a clip featuring Kelly and Brenda (I hope Shannen does more shows).
