Not Much

I'm being lazy this Fri - Day.

I just picked up a slurpee and I'm @ work for like another 2 hours.

Oh, and I trimmed my nails @ my desk.

Should I buy bowling shoes?

Guess I should go back to doing number crunching for Les' financial statements.

Then I'm off to Buster's...

SJP In My Neck Of The Woods

Sarah Jessica Parker was @ the Stoneridge Mall in Pleasanton on Wednesday to promote her new fragrance, Covet, and to sign autographs. Women of all ages showed up but there were a few men too. So I guess there were a bunch of ladies who called in sick yesterday or the stay @ home moms who needed sitters to catch a glimpse and a pic with Carrie Bradshaw herself. And no, I did not go.

And tonight, SJP was @ the New York City Public Library for the "Sex and the City: The Movie" DVD Launch Party. Joining her were co-stars Cynthia Nixon and Kim Cattrall. Kristin Davis was not there. Maybe she was out buying pudding!

Tina Fey Rocks!

Who saw Tina Fey last Saturday doing her dead on impersonation of Sarah Palin? That was the best part of the entire show. Who hosted? Oh yeah, Michael Phelps. But Fey so nailed it. Amy Poehler was great too, as Clinton.
Earlier that Saturday, Fey taped her show, 30 Rock, alongside guest star Oprah Winfrey. She'll be appearing on the second episode of the season (Nov. 6) as herself. Tina also released a statement saying her Oprah were officially best friends. She's genius! If you haven't watched 30 Rock, check it out on Thursdays on NBC. Even though the ratings aren't that great, I'm sure it'll spike when it premieres in October.

Jennifer Aniston filmed her guest spot recently.

Blake Lively and Leighton Meester (who will be play Liz Lemon's high school peers in a flashback) have yet to do their scenes for 30 Rock even though Robyn Lively is said to be filming with Fey (as the grown up Blake) currently or very soon.

The show is also trying to get Steve Martin to do a cameo. Now he's funny. He did however, write and star in Shopgirl with Claire Danes and that was not a comedy. Who has seen that? That was kind of a dark movie.

Fergie Tops People's Best Dressed List

Seriously?

But she went pee in her pants while performing!


CBS Comedies Kick Off

So CBS threw a party last night in LA to celebrate their upcoming season. It all starts this coming Monday. Oh, Dancing with the Stars also begins Monday on ABC.

Anyway, here are some of the celebrities who turned out for the party. No Charlie Sheen?

Neil Patrick Harris - He looks pretty hot

Oliver Hudson - Star of Rules of Engagement

Alyson Hannigan - "Lily Pad" sure dresses better on How I Met Your Mother

Who's This?

Josh Radnor & Cobie Smulder - Ted & Robin!

Darlene & David - Roseanne's back?

Oh, It's Renee Zellweger

Renee Zellweger was @ the LA premiere of her new western, Appaloosa, which took place @ The Academy Theatre. Joining her was co-star Viggo Mortensen and director Ed Harris, who also has a role in the film.
I have no idea what this is about nor have I heard of this movie until this morning.

Renee was good in One True Thing, right? Lorelai Gilmore played her best friend.

Courteney Cox showed up in jeans to support Zellweger. I didn't know they were buds. Courteney should recruit her to be in her clique and join the likes of Jennifer Aniston, Laura Dern, Sheryl Crow, Jennifer Meyer, etc. etc.

NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some of this just doesn't make sense. Kelly's (Jennie Garth) baby daddy is a do gooder traveling the world doing charity work? Does that sound like Dylan? Brenda (Shannen Doherty) telling Kelly to get her stories straight? What's that about? Can't Brandon still be the father yet unable to be with former drug addict, cult follower K. Taylor because she's still in love with Valerie Malone's old sleeping buddy? Fine! I know, I know. Dylan McKay is the father. I just hope they explain how Kelly was able to have a child when it was unlikely when she miscarried with Brandon.

New Yorkers For Children's Fall Gala

New York based celebs turned out last night @ Cipriani's on 42nd Street for the 2008 Children's Fall Gala. Ooh, a gala! That's such a fancy word for party. I think I'll start using that more often. Do these famous people pay or make a contribution to go to these decked out soirees? Then all these pictures surface all over the place showing the rest of the world that the beautiful famous people who get these free designer clothes were @ a fab party yesterday with other beautiful famous people while Catt James dutifully attended Back to School Night and then went to pick up a pizza. It's okay, I'll still always look @ the famous people pictures.
Here are some of them now.

Josh Lucas - Yummy; He showed up with some girl. Guess he isn't seeing Hathaway


Jimmy Fallon - What is he doing nowadays?

Julianne Moore - Always breezy and cool

Taylor Momsen - Really? 15? And making out with Chace Crawford last week!

Jay-Z & Beyonce - Power! (Uh-huh)

Sisters Lively - Robyn just had her 3rd kid and she looks hella fit. She's 15+ years older than Blake

Robert Buckley - (Sigh......)

Monet Mazur - I don't really know this person

And a slew of designers like Oscar de la Renta, Nanette Lepore, Jill Stuart, & Tory Burch were present.

Who Is It?

On tonight's 90210, we are supposed to learn either the identity of Kelly Taylor's baby daddy or more info that would lead us to a likely conclusion. Kelly (Jennie Garth) did say it was someone she was with in high school. That doesn't necessarily rule out Brandon (Jason Priestley) just cause they dated in college and after. They do have high school history.

Word on the street (meaning my computer in my office) is that an original male cast member will be appearing but they haven't disclosed who it is just yet. It may be Jason Priestley, Luke Perry, Ian Ziering (no thanks), or James Eckhouse!

The little boy who plays Kelly's son sure has hair like a Sanders kid.

Who is it?

Dylan McKay


Steve Sanders

Nat Visichio (?)

Brandon Walsh

The guy that didn't know if he was gay or not

Ross Webber



Movie Premieres In La La Land

There were a couple of things happening in the City of Angels last night. BTW, I just love LA!

My Best Friend's Girl had their premiere @ the Archlight Theatre on Sunset. Kate Hudson, Dane Cook, and Jason Biggs walked the red carpet and that's pretty much it.

Hudson's "Bride Wars" co-star, Anne Hathaway made her way to the west coast to premiere her latest film, Rachel Getting Married @ the Writers Guild Theatre. Rumor has it that Anne and Kate didn't get along while filming their movie. What's up with that? Something about Kate's friend (I forgot that dudes name, Burkle is it?)) investing money into Anne's crook of an ex-boyfriend's Vatican scheme, or something like it.Hudson denied a rift between the ladies and Hathaway was forced to give up jewelry that her ex "gave" her to the feds. Rolexes, rings, etc. Too bad...

Fall TV Season Kicking Off

The majority of the return of our favorite television shows begins next week. With the CW ahead of the curve with their premieres earlier this month and the same for Prison Break and Bones, I forgot about the main shows like How I Met Your Mother, Grey's Anatomy, ER, The Office, etc. I better remember to make a mental note.
Lipstick Jungle, which miraculously made the cut for another season (What? Cashmere Mafia?) had their premiere party last night @ Studio 450 in NYC. Brooke Shields, Kim Raver, and Lindsay Price (No 90210 for you, huh, Janet? Did Steve father Kelly Taylor's blond, curly haired son?) were all accounted for. Their male counterparts, Andrew McCarthy, Robert Buckley, and Paul Blackthorne showed up as well as guest stars Rosie Perez and Mary Tyler Moore. New episodes begin airing next Wednesday, Sept 24th. Will you watch?

No More Jason Morgan?

I have been watching soaps since I was like 4 years old. And Niki Smith was hella scary back then! I remember when One Life to Live's opening credits were just that sunset thingamajig and General Hospital had the sirens blaring as the ambulance raced by the screen. I even got excited when they introduced Loving as a new soap and was an avid Edge of Night viewer. Remember Preacher and Jody? Anyone? They were played by Lori Loughlin (Aunt Becky and now Debbie Wilson on 90210) and Charles Flohe. And all before I was 11.

Now I have moments where I'm soap obsessed and where I don't care. I'm @ the I don't care mode as of late but as all soap viewers know, it doesn't take a whole lot to catch up on a year's worth. General Hospital was the one for me this last year and I stopped watching a few months ago. But rumor has it that Steve Burton aka Jason Morgan will be exiting in November when his contract expires (again!). Now I really won't be watching. He was one of the main reasons I watched. He'll come back...
Here's Burton @ the GH Weekend from 2007.

Cynthia Nixon's Busy Weekend

Tony and Emmy award winning actress Cynthia Nixon picked up yet another Emmy on Saturday for her guest starring role on Law & Order. And on Sunday she participated in Komen Race for the Cure.

Oh Miranda!

The Sex and the City DVD will be out on Sept 23 with a few extras. Here are some photos of Kim Cattrall, Nixon, and Kristin Davis that didn't make the final cut. Word is that a sequel is in the works for 2010. That deserves a squee. The Women, however, deserves a wah wah wah wah...

Maybe More Shannen?

Shannen Doherty finished filming her 4 episode stint last Monday on 90210 as Brenda Walsh. A rep for Doherty did say that she would consider doing more and the producers are down for it as well. In the mean time, Shannen said she is now focusing on pitching a pilot but made no elaboration. Her co-star Jennie Garth is set to continue on as guidance counselor Kelly Taylor after finishing her initial 6 episode commitment.


Here are a couple of stills for upcoming episodes.
