Debra Takes a Break From Her Wifely Duties

PopSugar — Wed, 30 May 2007 00:57:37 -0700

Debra Messing has been busy promoting The Starter Wife but she took a break to help nurse her sore thumb with a little iced coffee and shopping in Soho last weekend. The mini series, which premieres on USA this Thursday, stays in the comedic realm that Debra is used to from her Will & Grace days, but the filming experience was very different. She said, "In The Starter Wife, we shot it like a film, we shot it out of order, it was 4 months, 6 hours worth of film, so there was the luxury of time to tell the story. So I think the comedy comes out of character more and there is more of a balance between the drama and the comedy."

We can't wait to check out Debra's performance when the series airs. In the meantime, don't forget to enter our Starter Wife Bag Giveaway!! All you have to do is click here and leave a comment to win lots of goodies!

Debra Premieres Starter Wife, With Starter Wife Creator

Debra Messing was out looking nice (other than the dress) to celebrate the premiere of her new mini-series, Starter Wife. Also gracing the red carpet with her presence was Gigi Levangie (Grazer), who wrote the roman a clef, Starter Wife, on which the series is based. She was also on the arm of her maybe/maybe not ex-husband, movie producer Brian Grazer. Soooo, does that mean she wasn't a "starter wife" after all? Anyway, the show looks like it could be good summer fun. Plus, check back soon for our awesome Starter Wife Swag giveaway!! Yay! Free Stuff! Fun times.

Debra's Just Getting Started

PopSugar — Fri, 13 Apr 2007 07:53:52 -0700

We haven't seen much of Debra Messing since her lovably quirky Will & Grace days. Apparently she's been spending time in NYC with her husband and son (and shopping for jewelry by the looks of it) - but she'll be back on the small screen soon. This May, Debra stars in a new series on USA called The Starter Wife. The show based on the bestselling novel is about a woman who divorces her Hollywood exec husband and starts a new life for herself. Sounds like the perfect guilty pleasure.
