Seriously? OMG! WTF?

According to The Hollywood Reporter, America Ferrera did not want to sign on to do the sequel of The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants. She had no choice because she signed a sequel option when she did the first one. That movie came out before she did Ugly Betty and her co-stars were on successful shows and got higher billings than her. Now that she has won awards for Ugly Betty she had other options she was looking into during her summer break and now she has to turn them down for The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2. 

I can't say I blame her, the first movie was good but it was good a one-time movie. A second time around I think will be cheesey. Not every movie needs to be made into a sequel and this one is no exception in my mind, I  mean wouldn't it be smarter to do it with a new set of girls trying out the pants?

So when the picture on the left came out, several bloggers were speculating that Salma Hayek was pregnant. But then the question was if she was pregnant who was the father? Well People Magazine got the answer to both.

"Businessman, François-Henri Pinault, and his fiancée, Salma Hayek, are happy to announce they are expecting the arrival of their first child," Hayek's rep confirmed in a statement Friday.

Salma Hayek lucked out in the fiancee department because François-Henri Pinault CEO of luxury goods firm PPR, which owns Gucci and Yves Saint Laurent, as well as a French department store and national music chain. His father, François, is an avid art collector owning more than 2,500 valuable pieces, including Picassos, Miros and work by contemporary artistst including Damien Hirst. Now bad at all!

No word from Prenelope Cruz about the news.

"Project Runway’s" Tim Gunn will put his fashion savvy to good, satirical use during February sweeps on "Ugly Betty." The fashion-design show’s father figure will appear in two "Betty" episodes, scheduled to air Feb. 1 and 8. He’ll be playing a Fashion TV reporter who covers a controversy that erupts during the Mode fashion week runway show, which takes place during the Feb. 1 installment. That episode will also feature last year’s "American Idol" runner-up, Katharine McPhee, as one of the runway show’s celebrity guests. Gunn, who heads the department of fashion design at New York’s Parsons The New School for Design, has become a fan favorite over three seasons of "Project Runway" on Bravo. He acts as a mentor and taskmaster for the contestants and, via a blog on the show’s web site, also acts as a conduit to fans. Recognizing his appeal, Bravo announced last week that it’s giving Gunn his own show. "Tim Gunn’s Guide to Style" will help the fashion-challenged solve their style dilemmas. There’s no word yet on a premiere date.

Don’t you think that Bravo gave him his own show as a condition for him to return to Project Runway??? Not that I am complaining!

Salma Hayek has persuaded best pal Penelope Cruz to guest on an upcoming episode of her Golden Globe-winning TV comedy Ugly Betty. Hayek, who appears on the show as a vampish magazine writer, has been trying to find Cruz the right role since the show started last year. The actress, who is also a producer of the series, says, "We’re going to do something with her, but maybe later."

I am sorry but the show went from Golden Globe winner to schockly in one day. I mean concetrate on the storylines and not casting people like Katharine McPhee, Tim Gunn, Kathy Griffin and Penelope Cruz…I mean that was downfall for Will and Grace and countless other shows. That is a tactic failing shows use.
