Gilles Marini on Nip/Tuck

We may have seen the last of on Sex and the City, but that doesn’t mean we’ll be seeing less of the French hunk. (Well - if you take into consideration clothing, we will.)

Vampire Diaries Desperate For Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift: From CMAs to Vampire Diaries?With the kind of ratings she’s scoring, it’s no wonder that Vampire Diaries executive producer Kevin Williamson wants Taylor Swift on his show.

“I’m desperate to have [Swift] come play a vampire. Wouldn’t she make an amazing Kirsten Dunst circa Interview With the Vampire type? Oh my god, I cannot tell you how hard I’m trying to get her—I would kill to have her on the show!” Williamson said.

I’m not sure how her anti-vampire boyfriend would like that idea very much, but hey, he said he was desperate.

Lady Gaga Told Gossip Girl Writers What to Do

While the rest of the cast haven’t let any info slip about the anticipated episode, Gaga herself decided to fill us in on what to expect, as well as divulging how she told the writers how she wanted the story to pan out.

“I am the narrator behind what is going on with the characters and make the song part of the moment,” the “Paparazzi” singer explained, noting that she didn’t want to be on a stage, as many musicians awkwardly and randomly appear on television shows often do (also because she stressed that she doesn’t lip-sync).
