Article: Jessica Lowndes Says…

13 01 2009

…Adrianna’s baby is, essentially, saving her life.

How so you ask?  In the most in-depth interview (which was briefly mentioned in today’s roundup) I’ve seen with her, Lowndes says her character has been turning her life around–no more drugs, etc.–and being pregnant will keep her on the right track.

So, SPOILER ALERT, Adrianna will be keeping the baby.

My favorite part of the article is the way it starts: pointing out how Lowndes was barely on the press’ radar when the show began (and seemed to be going the Scott Scanlon route-aka dying prematurely and tragically) but has now carved out a name and character for herself.  And, so, I offer you another comparison: Lowndes’s path is very much like Luke Perry’s (Dylan, Beverly Hills 90210).  Perry joined the show as a guest-star with an unplanned/unforeseen future and soon became one of the best things about it.  Interesting, no?

Other tidbits from the article: Lowndes was 4 when the original started (I was 3!); Adrianna will beat Annie for the lead in an upcoming school play; and Lowndes still “pinches” herself when she’s around original cast members!

News Roundup: Gossip Girl, 90210, One Tree Hill

13 01 2009
  • Kelly Rutherford, whose divorce I first told you about here, went to the courts to stop her estranged husband from leaving the country with her son.  Unfortunately for her, the request was denied.  PEOPLE reports an increasingly ugly situation between the two.  Her husband alledges Rutherford’s work on Gossip Girl (Lily) is part of the problem.
  • Jessica Lowdnes (Adrianna, 90210) says she’s a series regular.  Haven’t seen it listed that way anywhere but guess we have to believe her?
  • CBS unveiled yesterday a new 90210 product: a karaoke machine!  I kid you not.  Check it out here and here.  Suppose I’ll add it to the recommended products list…?
  • If the last one wasn’t random enough, how about this one: Kate Voegele (Mia, One Tree Hill) will perform on an upcoming episode of The Bachelor.
  • Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) will be on a panel of “leading women” giving advice to advertisers on how to market to women.

RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!

Michelle in Williamsport, Pa.: The cast of 90210 is so hot. Any chance any of them are actually single?
Not even close. Those 90210 kids just can’t help but date each other. Dustin Milligan and Jessica Stroup were together at the WB/In Style party last night, while Jessica Lowndes and Adam Gregory were spotted Saturday afternoon at the HBO Luxury Lounge, though the pair wouldn’t let the photogs catch them canoodling.

Jesse in Miami: Is Lily and Rufus’ son alive on Gossip Girl? I hope not!
I’m told Rufus and Lily will be told that he’s dead, but then later find out he is not. Yep, Dan and Serena’s romance-slaying half sibling is most definitely among the living, and according to sources, the producers plan to cast some hot new guy to come to the show either later this season or early in season three. So what does this mean for D and S? Is there any way to keep them together now? Let’s discuss in the comments!

Wallace in Reno, Nev.: Give us some good Gossip Girl scoop!
A huge core couple is going to get back together. And trust me, it’s not anyone you would think would get back together. And trust me, I will cry.

Breaking News: Mark Schwahn NOT Doing Melrose Place

12 01 2009

From the ongoing Television Critics Association Press Tour: Dawn Ostroff, head of The CW, announced that Mark Schwahn is no longer involved with the Melrose Place remake.

So what does this mean for One Tree Hill?

Here’s what the article says:

“[Ostroff] would only say how pleased she has been with the show and noted it has made huge gains in audience over last year.  At this point, the only sticking points for renewal could be with the cast. The major players’ contracts all expire after this season, and so far none of the cast have agreed to more seasons — though many have expressed being open to the idea.”

RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!

(compiled from recent columns)

Korbi, Is Tori Spelling really doing 90210?!! -Michelle
Donna Martin Graduates! The deal is done, baby. I spoke to a friend of hers who gave me the wink-wink when I asked.

Who is the father of Adrianna’s baby? Is it the HIV guy or someone we know? -P
Someone we know. Someone we haven’t seen in a while. Someone who’s super hot.

I cannot believe that Gossip Girl is doing this whole love child thing with Lily and Rufus. 90210, Brothers & Sisters, so many shows have already covered it! To death! -Jacqueline
I feel your pain, but I’m hearing GG may actually put its own little spin on the whole “bastard kid coming to town and turning everyone’s lives upside down” storyline. I know my pal Michael Ausiello at EW has said that the long-lost child will show up towards the end of the season, but as I understand, the original plan was for Rufus and Lily to find out that their first born son was killed in a tragic accident.

Korbi! I wanted to know if we were going to get any closure on Eden’s character from Nip/Tuck?  Thanks. -Marty
Yes, indeed. 90210 producers were kind enough to let AnnaLynne McCord finish filming her Nip/Tuck arc last Fall, so we should see Eden again soon.

Tell me there are more old 90210 characters coming back to the show. I want to see a familiar face. -Shannon
Well, if you’re hoping for Dylan McKay, don’t get hold your breath. But if you’re cool with seeing Jackie Taylor again, you can get excited. Word is, Kelly and Silver’s loony mom will soon make a return appearance.
