BEING SINGLE OBVIOUSLY AGREES WITH HILARY DUFF

We couldn’t NOT publish this photo of Hilary Duff because she has NEVER looked more glamorous! Like a real movie star! Maybe her new series “Younger” and the fact that she’s single, has influenced her style. The TV Land comedy series is produced by “Sex & the City” creator Darren Star and it has certain desirable similarities to “City.” Hilary, 28, plays an ambitious and well-dressed career girl in New York. The new season starts this week.

HILARY DUFF AND LUCA HAVE A GOOD HAIR DAY

134858PCN_Duff19cut
Now that she’s single, Hilary Duff has been having some fun experimenting with hair colors. – this week it’s turquoise. Since she and Mike Comrie divorced, Hilary has had main custody of their little boy Luca, 3. Hilary is a little sad because Luca is so tall he can barely sit on her lap any more – but she does manage to carry him. If Luca’s hair looks a bit like the 80’s band Flock of Seagulls, it’s because of the wind. Hilary’s new series Younger for TV Land premieres this week.

ANOTHER OPPORTUNITY FOR LUCKY KIRSTIE ALLEY

Kirstie Alley gets lucky every time she appears on Dancing with the Stars. Opportunities seem to pop up out of nowhere and now she’s doing a pilot for TV Land called “Giant Baby.” Kirstie plays a Broadway star whose life changes when her long lost son turns up to reconnect after his adopted mother dies. Her loyal but tormented assistant played by Rhea Perlman urges her to welcome the twenty-something young man into her world. Kirstie’s character decides the nerdy son needs a makeover and she struggles to make him cool. Sounds like a good fit for Kirstie, but hopefully the title will change if the pilot becomes a series.

LAVERNE & SHIRLEY AREN’T EXACTLY BUDDIES ANY MORE


One of our favorite sitcoms, “Laverne & Shirley,” was honored at the TV Land Awards and Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams turned up, along with costars “Lenny“ and “Squiggy.” Everybody got along fine onstage but the two leading girls were distinctly cool with each other while sitting at their table in the audience. A source told us they barely acknowledged one another and Penny (who CAN be gruff) made a point of turning her back to Cindy and chatting only with her friends. Is this an old feud or a new one?

JOHN TRAVOLTA AND THE SWEATHOGS REUNITE FOR TV LAND AWARDS

We have to give John Travolta a pat on the back for agreeing to appear on The TV Land Awards 2011 (airing April 17) with the cast of “Welcome Back Kotter.” Most break-out stars don’t want to look back at the shows that started them off in the business. The role of Vinnie Barbarino launched Travolta to incredible success. The other guys, not so much. But it will be fun to see them again. Lawrence Hilton-Jacobs, Ron Palillo, and Marcia Strassman are set to appear- Gabe Kaplan and Robert Hegyes are still thinking it over.
