If you think you're befuddled about all the many mysteries and puzzles presented in Lost, try being a cast member of the show! In the latest issue of TV Guide, the main cast members get to ask showrunners Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof their burning questions about the show, and it's interesting to see what each actor is most curious to know about.
I figured the actors would ask questions specific to their own characters, but this isn't always the case. Some of them are just generally interested in the same questions we ask each other here in the Lost posts every week. For example, Yunjin Kim, who plays Sun, asks a question about the Oceanic Six that's been front and center in my own mind. Of course, Cuse and Lindelof deflect the really pressing questions, but still, there are some gems of information in this article. Also, one of the ways they deflect is by telling us in which episodes we'll get certain answers (the March 20th episode will bring us answers about Michael, for example).
To see a few of the questions and answers from Cuse and Lindelof that I found most intriguing, read more
On paper (er, screen), the prize for this Made of Honor contest sounds really great. Engaged couples can enter to win "an extravagant wedding" held at the premiere for Made of Honor, the romantic comedy starring Patrick Dempsey and Michelle Monaghan, along with an equally "extravagant" honeymoon.
Couples have to submit their story of when they realized they were "made for each other" in order to be entered into the contest. Then the winning lovebirds will receive "a trip for four to the premiere city, including hotel, airfare, transportation, and per diem." In addition, "To tie the knot at the world premiere in late April, the winning couple will also receive the bride's wedding dress, provided by Selia Yang; the groom's tuxedo; a bridal bouquet, provided by Fleurop; his-and-hers wedding bands, provided by Damiani; and a $3,000 Bed Bath & Beyond shopping spree in the form of a gift card." There's also a six-night honeymoon in Paris and Venice.
It sounds nice, but at the same time, you'd only be able to invite a small group friends and family members, and you'd be wearing some movie character's wedding dress. Plus, your nuptials would forever be tied in with a probably forgettable romantic comedy. What do you think? Is it worth it for the free wedding and honeymoon?
Coveted(?) Crib: Julian Schnabel's Palazzo Chupi
CasaSugar dug up some photos of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly director Julian Schnabel's pink home in New York. She writes: "Schnabel has definitely translated his imaginative aesthetic into the world of architecture, and despite the eye-popping initial color of the building, known as Palazzo Chupi, I have to admit I like the place, especially after seeing the interior photos."
I'm still not sure I've seen this year's American Idol contestants meet the "best singers ever!" hype, but Tuesday's '80s night performance from the guys was . . . better. Everybody at least seemed to meet a general standard of mediocrity, and a few people went beyond to deliver some of the best performances of the season. It was just in time, too, as the vote determines which singers will become finalists in next week's top 12.
The new show will be based on Zoey Dean's young adult novel (published by Gossip Girl's same house, Alloy Entertainment) How to Teach Filthy Rich Girls, which sounds as though it starts off like The Devil Wears Prada and ends up like The Nanny Diaries — but set in Palm Beach.
According to Variety, Pushing Daisies writer and producer Rina Mimoun will write the pilot episode. The story follows "a young woman who's fired from her job as the assistant at a glossy tabloid mag. She's then hired to serve as a live-in tutor and life coach for the teen granddaughters of a cosmetics magnate. Show's lead must win over the girls while also navigating Palm Beach's high society and dealing with her own personal issues."
While this story has a not-so-wealthy protagonist, there still seems to be something endlessly fascinating about rich kids. What do you think about this project? Is it intriguing or more of the same?
Welcome to Caption It, a new game on BuzzSugar! Every other Wednesday, I'll post a funny TV or movie photo here and challenge you to think of the most hilarious caption possible. I'll announce the finalists the following Tuesday, and you'll get to vote for the best caption; the winner will get a fabulous BuzzSugar T-shirt!
The winner of last week's contest is radarkitty! The winning caption was, shall we say, a slogan of sorts, inspired by a photo from Be Kind, Rewind: "Beer. Turning perfectly good kitchen items into bike helmets since 1955."
Congrats, radarkitty! Now for this week's challenge, taken from the upcoming movie 10,000 B.C.:
Leave your captions in the comment space below before 5 p.m. PST on Monday, March 10 to be considered for a spot in the voting round. Have fun! To see a photo of the BuzzSugar T-shirt, just read more
Tonight, Project Runway crowns its winner! Before the first part of the finale last week, I challenged Fab to pick out her favorite looks of the season so we could see where we agree and where we differ. Last week, we both shared the first group of our favorites: here are mine and here our Fab's. Today, we've got our next round of faves. Do you agree with my picks — or Fab's?
Singer and actress Selena Gomez posed for pictures at the 2009 American Music Awards with a pretty pink smile on her face. She took advantage of the occasion and went glam; wearing a Talbot Runhof sequin dress with black strappy heels.
