Spoiler: Watch with Kristin

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

Cedric in New York: Any scoop on the Gossip Girl spinoff?
Krysten Ritter
, who plays Lily’s big sis, Carol Rhodes, tells us “It’s set on the Sunset Strip, and I am down for whatever. I’m excited to see what they do with my hair. Like Tess McGill, Working Girl hair.” Ah, break out the Aqua Net!

Jesse in San Francisco, Calif.: Will Luke Perry finally show up on 90210?
Highly doubtful, according to Jennie Garth. At the Costume Designer Awards, we asked her when he would be on the show, and Jennie jumped right in, saying, “I don’t think he is.” Bummer.

Laetitia from Paris: Salut, Kristin, I heard that Peyton from One Tree Hill is gonna lose her baby in a car crash? She’s my favorite character. Please tell me it’s not true.
I love that your favorite character is one you haven’t even met yet! I have a soft spot for Peyton and Lucas’ spawn, too. (Or wait, did you mean Peyton is your fave?) Anyhoo, regardless, a source tells me this: “There is a car crash, but Peyton will not lose the baby because of that. She will be OK. But so far we don’t know if the baby lives or dies yet in the finale.” Ugh. Have your family-sized Kleenex box standing by, just in case!

Maria from Riverside, Calif: Gossip Girl! Please! I miss it so.
You and me both, sister. Word on the street is that Georgina will come back a totally different person. My guess? George.

Lacey in Utica, N.Y.: I’ll take 90210 scoop if you’ve got it!
Things are really going to start heating up between Liam (Matt Lanter) and Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord). Says McCord, “Things are getting a little hot and steamy. Then, as if what we’re doing is not enough, Naomi starts having wet dreams. It’s hilarious. All I’m going to say is ‘banana in a pocket.’ ” By the way, AnnaLynne also tells me Eden will be back on Nip/Tuck: “I have one more episode airing that I’ve shot so far, and then I don’t know what’s next for it, but I don’t fall off, so you never know, I could come back…The last episode I’m with Kimber and Ram. I’m pretty mean. That’s all I’m going to say.” In other news, we’ll be meeting Adrianna’s Aunt Nancy in the finale. She’s described a good egg, which makes me worry that she’ll be taking off with either Adrianna or her baby…





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!
