Girl Crush du Jour: Sarah Chalke

TresSugar — Fri, 05 Feb 2010 10:15:29 PST

We loved Sarah Chalke in at least the first five or six seasons of Scrubs, as Dr. Stella on How I Met Your Mother, and as Becky number two in the '90s comedy Roseanne, but we're excited to see her in a new part. She just accepted a role as a new congresswoman in ABC's upcoming comedy Freshman. The network describes her character:

[A] sharp and funny freshman congresswoman who was the VP at a multibillion dollar company when she was just 28, and who won her district with the largest margin of any candidate since 1977.

Sounds worth watching, but it's oddly being produced by Arianna Huffington, founder of the Huffington Post. Story aggregation to TV - why not?

It's All Blue for Sarah Chalke!

Oh boy! According to People, Scrubs star Sara Chalke and fiancé Jamie Afifi welcomed son Charlie Rhodes Afifi on Christmas Eve. The new parents must be enjoying their best present yet. Congratulations to the new family!

Television's Hottest Expectant Ladies

babysugar — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 12:11:42 PDT

It may be hard to top hot dog eating contests and faux pregnancies, but the networks are going to have to find a way to come up with more clever pregnancy fodder to inject into their story lines with the number of network ladies firing up buns in their ovens. ABC has quite a few expectant mamas in its lineup while NBC, CBS, and Lifetime aren't too far behind in the baby bump race. Tiffani Thiessen plans to put parenthood on hold since she's signed on to a new show, but she may find inspiration in these fuller tummied leading ladies.

Jennifer Jokes About Searching For a Stable Leading Man

Molly — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 05:00:54 PDT

Jennifer Aniston looked stunning in silver at the Women In Film 2009 Crystal And Lucy Awards in LA on Friday. Chelsea Handler sneaked in a joke about John Mayer as she presented Jennifer with the Crystal Award for Excellence in Film. Aniston responded by making fun of her own love life saying, "I have a strange parallel with movies I was doing and my life off screen. First, it was The Good Girl...which evolved into Rumor Has It, followed by Derailed. Then there was The Breakup. Followed by the lighter side, Friends With Money. If anyone has a movie called Everlasting Love With an Adult Stable Man, that would be great! I'm at table six, and my agents are at table 12." Love her sense of humor.

Jennifer was joined on the red carpet by some of her fellow leading ladies like Jodie Foster, Elizabeth Banks and Holly Hunter. Up-and-coming star Selena Gomez was surrounded by some great role models while Jenny McCarthy kept it sleek in her pantsuit. Catherine Hardwicke has had quite a whirlwind year in the success of Twilight but now she's shifting her focus elsewhere as she and Emile Hirsch take on Hamlet.

TV Tonight: The Scrubs Finale

BuzzSugar — Wed, 06 May 2009 12:30:00 PDT

It's hard to know what exactly to call tonight's episode of Scrubs. Series finale? Season finale? The Last Time You'll See Zach Braff On Scrubs Except Maybe That's Not Even True?

This was all a bit more clear-cut a year ago, when Scrubs made the leap from NBC to ABC for what was supposed to be its final season. Braff said he was done (though he's said he'd be willing to drop by again), and creator Bill Lawrence started working on another show. But within the past few months, there have been rumblings that Scrubs could keep going, even without Braff, Lawrence, or any of the other original cast members who move on to other jobs.

So maybe we should just call tonight JD's big farewell and leave it at that? The episode takes place during his final shift at Sacred Heart, and it's designed to give closure to a number of storylines. Whether we need that closure or not remains to be seen, but it looks like it should be a sweet reward for Scrubs fans who have stuck by the show for all these years. Will you be watching the finale - and do you think it should be the last episode of Scrubs ever? To check out a couple of clips, just

Mix Up Your Workouts Like Actress Sarah Chalke

FitSugar — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 04:30:08 PST

Even the biggest fitness fanatic has been known to get bored with her workouts, and it's good to keep our bodies guessing and our minds motivated by changing up the routine. Underrated actress Sarah Chalke from Scrubs and How I Met Your Mother knows that adding variety to her workouts is the best way to keep her on track, something she says is more important since turning 30.

The charming 32-year-old actress told People that she noticed a difference once she exited her 20s, saying, "I had to really keep up with working out. You can't get lax about it anymore." Like many of us, Sarah admits, "If I do one thing I would get way too bored." She likes to break away from her routine by incorporating things like hiking with her dog, doing yoga, and participating in boot-camp workouts.

How do you mix up your workouts to prevent boredom?

American Music Awards: Sarah Chalke

FabSugar — Sun, 23 Nov 2008 18:00:01 PST

Continuing the LBD attack is actress Sarah Chalke. Tonight she turned up in a black satin Dolce & Gabbana halter dress with sexy corset detail. She kept her accessories black, too. Interesting peep toe pumps, a chunky ring, bracelet, and a small clutch round out the look. Do you approve?

How Sarah Chalke Met David Letterman

PopSugar — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 15:00:26 PDT

Sarah Chalke smiled for the cameras while stopping by The Late Show yesterday to meet David Letterman for the first time. The How I Met Your Mother and Scrubs star had Buzz laughing at the TCAs, and last night was no different - Sarah joked about having a round face and told a funny story about losing her engagement ring, while Dave shamelessly flirted. Sarah's quirky charm and attitude were endearing as usual, so it's no wonder she scored a spot on our 10 Most Underrated Actresses list.

TV Tonight: How I Met Your Mother

BuzzSugar — Mon, 22 Sep 2008 14:30:37 PDT

The end of the Emmys means the true start of the TV season, as networks start rolling out new episodes left and right (are you using my Fall TV calendar to keep track?). Up tonight: the CBS comedy block, which includes newcomer Worst Week and the delightful How I Met Your Mother.

A brief note about Worst Week: I didn't like the pilot very much, mostly because I found the main character unsympathetic and the pratfalls predictable. It's an interesting concept, though, and pretty different for CBS, so I'm curious to see how it does.

Meanwhile, How I Met Your Mother starts its fourth season by resolving the legendary (sorry, couldn't help it) cliffhanger of Ted's proposal to Stella. The show doesn't keep us waiting long for Stella's answer: After a montage of several possible reactions (played perfectly by Sarah Chalke), we see her real response within the first few minutes of the episode. Other things we see over the following 20 minutes or so: Star Wars references, Barney's struggle with having actual feelings for Robin (er, well, having actual feelings at all), a bored and troublemaking Marshall, and a rather amusing exploration of the art of the late-night hookup call. I'm just going to leave it there because anything else would spoil the fun. To check out a clip from tonight's episode, just

Sad Sarah, Saucy Kathy and Mad Men Already Winning Emmys

Molly — Mon, 15 Sep 2008 06:00:00 PDT

One week before next weekend's Primetime Emmy Awards lots of stars of the small screen came out in LA on Saturday for the presentation of the Creative Arts Emmy Awards. The show airs Saturday and was hosted by two of my favorites, Sarah Chalke and Neil Patrick Harris, who kept the laughs coming. As expected, Mad Men and John Adams both took home multiple statues - check out all the winners here. Kathy Griffin kept things raunchy when she won again while Sarah Silverman's acceptance speech for "I'm F*cking Matt Damon" was uncharacteristically touching. She said, "Let's be honest, Matt Damon had very little to do with this being popular. . . Thanks to the person for whom this whole video was made: Jimmy Kimmel, who broke my heart – who'll always have a place in my heart." She deserves the award for her hilarious video and hopefully it's more than just a reminder of her rough split.
