Jane Lynch At 2011 Primetime Emmy Awards

Jane Lynch set the fashionable tone as host of the 63rd Annual Primetime Emmy Awards at the Nokia Theatre LA Live in Los Angeles on Sunday, September 18th.

The Glee star was fabulous in a David Meister Signature eggplant strapless gown. The 51 year-old star changed outfits many times through the show, but really looked fantastic on the red carpet.

Lynch was a great host, keeping the audience entertained and kept the pace of the show moving along. She also had a chance to get a joke in on how movie stars are taking over TV roles.

“There are so many movie stars doing TV now that TV stars have been forced into providing voices for video games. And those very same video games are then turned into movies starring the very same people who put the TV stars out of work in the first place.”

“Hakuna Matata, my friends, circle of life,” she quipped.

One of Lynch’s funniest jokes came as she was introducing the cast of Entourage.

“A lot of people are very curious why I’m a lesbian. Ladies and gentleman, the cast of Entourage

The Guys From ‘Glee’ Take On The Village People (Photo)

Glee

 

What do TV actors do during the summer break?  They get pretty goofy in some cases.  Glee‘s Mark Salling (Puck) Tweeted a picture of him and his co-stars “dressed” as the 1970s band The Village People. He said:

“The glee bros and I wanted to keep up our chops up over the hiatus so we formed a tribute band”

Of course it’s Photoshopped, but why hasn’t Glee taken on these icons of cheesy entertainment?  “Y.M.C.A.” would make for a fabulous show choir number, don’t you think?

Lea Michele ‘Glee Is Only The Beginning’

Lea Michele lands one of the coveted fall fashion issue September covers – her’s is for Harper’s Bazaar.

The actress is wearing a white Gucci jumpsuit with gold chain accents while giving you the over-the-shoulder look HB seems to favor for the lead photo (see the June Britney Spears image here and notice the similarities.)

Michele shares her future plans, being told she’s not ‘pretty enough,’ and she and her boyfriend live as quietly as possible in L.A.

On her career plans and strategy: “I don’t stop,” Lea says. “It’s my nature. People have to tell me to slow down. I plan on playing every role on Broadway. I want to do Evita. I want to do Sweeney Todd with [Glee costar] Chris Colfer. We want to do Wicked. I’ll be Elphaba and he wants to play ‘Guy-linda.’ I want to do movies, make music. Glee is only the beginning.”

On those who told her she wouldn’t make it because she didn’t conform to Hollywood’s beauty standards: “How many manag- ers told me, ‘Get a nose job. You’re not pretty enough’? But I proved them wrong.”

On her personal life: “I have a small life,” she says. Besides hanging out with her Glee castmates — “I just want to be around them all day” — on a typical night, she and [boyfriend Theo] Stockman “cook dinner, have wine.”

The cover is bland but her photo shoot is gorgeous! Check it and a behind the scenes video below.

Jayma Mays: Green Gal For ‘The Smurfs’

Jayma Mays filled the blue carpet with some serious contrast as she headed to the premiere of her latest movie The Smurfs held at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York City.

The 32 year-old actress chose a vivid green, strapless mini dress from Reem Acra with jeweled detail at the waist. She kept her hair straight and accessories minimal for a polished ‘red’ carpet look.

Mays said her character, Grace, ranks as the most down-to-earth role she’s had.

“She’s probably the most grounded character that I’ve ever played, despite the fact that she is talking to little blue creatures,” the Glee actress said. “I’ve never really played a very motherly role before and, for me, Grace Winslow was all about that.”

“She’s ready to become a mother, and it just so happens that these little creatures come into her life at about the same time that she’s about to have a baby. I think she’s learning how to give good advice and be loving. I don’t really know that I’ve played someone so grounded before. I feel like most of the characters I’ve played are a little bit kooky.”

It’s A ‘Glee’ Graduation For Lea Michele, Chris Colfer & Cory Monteith

At the end of season 3 of Glee, graduation will come for some of the cast.

Just who is going and who will stay has been a mystery until now. Show co-creator Ryan Murphy has given up three names who will not return after this year.

Lea Michele, Cory Monteith and Chris Colfer are all saying good-bye to McKinley High and will not return for the fourth year of the hit FOX show.

“You can keep them on the show for six years and people will criticize you for not being realistic, or you can be really true to life and say when they started the show they were very clearly sophomores and they should graduate at the end of their senior year,” Murphy told THR.

They aren’t the only characters who will bid farewell to Mr. Schuester, Miss Pilsbury and Coach Sue.

Murphy also says that the September 20th premiere date will clearly establish who graduates and that “more characters are leaving than are staying.”

This will be hard for Gleeks to take, but Murphy has made no secret that he will keep the character’s ages in mind and shuffle them off when it’s right.

Glee’s Cory Monteith Says He’s ‘Lucky To Be Alive’

On Glee, the character of Finn has led a fairly scandal-free teen existence but the actor who portrays him, Cory Monteith, did not.

The 29 year-old actor tells Parade magazine about his drug habit and the eventual rehab it led to and says he is truly lucky.

“I’m lucky on so many counts – I’m lucky to be alive.”

Monteith was a bright student who eventually hit his teenage years and cut class, got drunk and high all day, attended roughly 12 schools and troubled teen programs and ended up dropping out of school all together.

It took an intervention, a stay in rehab, a relapse and his theft of money from a family member to set him on the right course.

“I stole a significant amount of money from a family member,” he admits. “I knew I was going to get caught, but I was so desperate I didn’t care. It was a cry for help. I was confronted and I said, ‘Yeah, it was me.’ It was the first honorable, truthful thing that had come out of my mouth in years.”

He shares how hard work and truly making a change in his life is how he became successful. Monteith says that it’s important to him that kids understand that and don’t follow his mistakes believing it will turn out all right.

“I don’t want kids to think it’s okay to drop out of school and get high, and they’ll be famous actors, too. … But for those people who might give up: Get real about what you want and go after it. If I can, anyone can.”

New York State Of Mind With ‘Glee’

If they can make it here, they can make it anywhere!

The cast of Glee is in New York City filming the season two finale episode and what a stir they are causing.

If you were a fan and were trying to spot them to get autographs or photos, just look for the kids in the brightest colored clothes.

Among the crazy bright costumes: Lea Michele is dressed like a technicolor Marlo Thomas from the 60s show That Girl. Dianna Agron has a crayon orange trench coat, Heather Morris has the greenest jacket this side of a leprechaun, Ashley Fink has a baby blue hoodie and Jenna Ushkowitz wears a jade colored coat. Love it!

The cast also got a nice little hello from Mayor Bloomberg on Monday. Holding a press conference, the Mayor ribbed the cast about Finn and Rachel (Monteith and Michele.)

“Mayors don’t get a lot of time to watch television, so I don’t know much about this season’s plot but actually it would be great to see what happens with Finn and Rachel,” joked Bloomberg,

The episode will air May 24th and bring season 2 to a close.

Check out photos from the street shoots and the press conference below.  (Read the article)

‘Glee’ Star Heather Morris Gets Into A Sexy Groove For Esquire

‘Glee’ Girls Lea Michele, Amber Riley & Dianna Agron Cover Marie Claire

The Glee trilogy: Lea Michele, Amber Riley and Dianna Agron grab the spotlight and the cover of Marie Claire for the May 2011 issue.

The ladies all share one joint cover (above) and each get an individual cover for collectors to grab up.

Here is a little of what the gals had to say:

Lea Michele recalls her audition and the car accident she was in on her way there: “I was more afraid that they’d think I was using that as an excuse for being late. Because at first they were like, ‘Oh, my God are you OK?’ But after a while they were joking, ‘So that ‘car crash’ you were in…’ I literally had chunks of glass that I pulled from my hair and put on the table.”

Amber Riley and Chris Colfer (Kurt Hummel) are close in real life as well as on screen:  “Chris Colfer really is my Kurt. That’s my baby,” she says. “Having his character at that other school — Dalton Academy — this season is driving me up the wall.”

Dianna Agron knows there are whole websites and forums devoted to her and Lea:  “Everybody is convinced that Lea and I are in a relationship,” she says. “There are forums with photos of us hugging.”

All the covers are below. (Read the article)
