Lucy_Lawless
It’s been nearly a decade since 41-year-old actress Lucy Lawless starred as a leather-loving heroine, but that’s ancient history. After "Xena: Warrior Princess" came to an end in 2001, the New Zealand icon continued her adventures in Hollywood, doing everything from minor television roles to showing off her singing pipes on “Celebrity Duets.”

Fortunately, Lawless has made a triumphant comeback as Lucretia in Starz’s television series, "Spartacus: Gods of the Arena." While Lawless did co-star in the previous "Spartacus: Blood and Sand" as the sinfully seductive wife of a gladiator trainer,...

What does it really take to be one of the most recognized muses in rock ‘n’ roll? Just ask fiery haired Pamela Des Barres, the world’s most famous groupie. Before TMZ and Perez Hilton reported on the escapades of celebrities, the now 62-year-old California girl set off to meet her idols and was doing plenty of kissing, but no telling, at least until she published her world renowned memoir in 1987, I’m With The Band. Finally, she dished on what it was really like to be with some of music’s most influential artists, including Mick Jagger, Keith Moon, Jimmy Page, and Jim Morrison. Yet, it wasn...

Q&A With 'Drop Dead Diva's' Margaret Cho

June 4th, 2010 9:28am EDT
Margaret Cho
Comedienne Margaret Cho has a lot to be thankful for. The San Francisco native who grew up among ex-hippies has transformed herself from budding stand-up opener to Jerry Seinfeld to cultural icon. At 41-years-old, Cho has become everything from best-selling author to a sex kitten on her own glitzy burlesque tour.

Having made thousands of fans laugh worldwide, as well as advocating human rights for women, Asians, and the LGBT community, Cho is a star in her own right. Just when one would expect her to step off the spotlight to relish her fame, she continues to get more bellies aching with h...

Q&A With 'Alice In Wonderland's' Tim Burton

May 24th, 2010 12:10pm EDT
Tim_Burton
No one is more “curioser and curioser” than goth cinematic artist Tim Burton. The 51-year director resembles many of his strangely wonderful, yet tragic characters. Born in sunny Burbank, California, Burton, who idolized monsters and grim poet Edgar Allan Poe, often hides behind a camera or oversized indigo-hued glasses. Whether surrounded by hungry paparrazzi in Los Angeles or strolling with his wife Helena Bonham Carter near their home in the UK, he’s often hunched over with wide eyes staring back. Burton, always decked in coal black garments with a crow’s nest resting on his head...

Q&A: Liz Phair Discusses 'In Plain Sight' Musical Role, Hitting The Road & More

May 12th, 2010 11:27am EDT
Phair,_Liz
Before Miley Cyrus worked the stripper pole, there was indie rock artist Liz Phair who enjoyed teasing listeners with songs about getting down and dirty. Blonde and rail thin, the rebellious singer appears on her iconic 1994 cover for her debut album Exile in Guyville bare chested and howling. With lyrics like “I want be your blowjob queen,” the two-time Grammy Award winner enjoyed talking about sex more than pubescent boys, but also sympathized with teenage girls frustrated over settling for less.

While Phair fascinated audiences like any true rock star, she went the domestic route and ga...

Betty White
At 88-years-old, Betty White has the sizzling hot career that most 20-year-old starlets could only dream of. Refusing to sit back and enjoy her “golden years,” White is one of the busiest actresses in Hollywood today. When she’s not starring opposite America’s sweetheart Sandra Bullock in The Proposal, getting slammed into a puddle of mud for a Snickers, or spotted as dim-witted Rose Nylund in reruns of “Golden Girls,” White tirelessly fights for animal rights and accepts countless lifetime achievement awards. It’s no wonder that many demanded to see the funny lady host “Saturday Night Live...

March 4th, 2010 10:16am EST
Anne Hathaway and Helena Bonham Carter
On Friday March 5th, audiences around the world will be falling down a cinematic rabbit hole and feeding their heads with the silver screen delights created by Hollywood’s own mad man. Tim Burton’s fantastically dark take on author Lewis Carroll’s most famous story, Alice in Wonderland, is more of a sequel where Alice returns to a world of nonsense. Tea parties are all the rage, caterpillars smoke hookah, and cats make meowing passé. The children’s tale is a perfect match for Burton, who has brought characters, such as Batman, Beetlejuice, and Edward Scissorhands to life, and was set on hav...

When cocktail waitress Jaimee Grubbs met the world's top golfer at age 21, she thought she had finally found prince charming-except he was already married with two children and also had over 10 mistresses claiming to be his number one girl. However, unlike the other not-so-secret flames who either embraced their newfound fame or shun it, Grubbs was the first to openly show the real side of 34-year-old Tiger Woods-a womanizer who couldn't satisfy his hunger for blondes. The former reality television star not only came forward about her relationship with Woods in US Weekly, but she also revea...
