On Gear Live: 2024 Nissan Z Nismo Review

Christina HendricksChristina Hendricks "hates" to think about Mad Men ending. The flame-haired actress - who plays Joan Holloway in the 60s-set TV show, which was recently renewed for a sixth season - claims the program has "completely changed" her career and she doubts she will ever find a job she loves as much.

"It's completely changed my career. Instead of people wondering who you are, you walk in and they say, 'I love your show.' It's a nice way to start an audition. I hate to think of it ever finishing. I have concerns about finding something I'm going to fall in love with as much."

However, Christina - who is married to actor Geoffrey Arend - is looking forward to other projects and spending some time with her husband: "I've got a couple of things lined up for the next break, and I hope to enjoy my home and husband."

Christina, 37, was "smitten" with Geoffrey when she first met him because of his sense of humor. "It just became very obvious to me, I was smitten. He makes me laugh and he's my best friend and I would always rather be with him than not, so those are pretty good indications."

Nicki Minaj and Mariah CareyMariah Carey and Nicki Minaj have called a truce.

The American Idols judges - who were involved in an explosive argument on Monday during which the "Starships" rapper screamed violent insults at Mariah because she made her feel "inadequate" during the auditions round of the competition - are said to have buried the hatchet.

The chart rivals were reportedly civil and professional throughout yesterday's auditions for the reality TV singing competition in Charlotte, North Carolina, according to US gossip website TMZ. A source told the site that everyone working on the popular series was "shocked" and "embarrassed" by the outburst, which hit the internet after being caught on camera.

Producers were forced to call filming to a halt earlier this week after the judges' disagreement over a contestant turned into a bitter screaming match as Nicki hurled insults at Mariah, calling her "boring as f**k" and threatening "off with your head!"

Christina ApplegateChristina Applegate will return to Saturday Night Live this month after a 19-year absence.

The Anchorman star - who last hosted the comedy sketch show in 1993 - has been confirmed for the October 13 episode, which will see Passion Pit as the musical guest, according to The Hollywood Reporter.

Other stars lined up for this season of Saturday Night Live include Bruno Mars, who will be both host and musical guest on October 20.

It was recently revealed that Christina will reprise her role as Veronica Corningstone in the follow up to 2004's Anchorman starring Will Ferrell as Ron Burgundy. Although Christina initially stated she had not been approached, producer Judd Apatow has confirmed she will appear in the forthcoming motion picture. When asked if Christina will make an appearance in the movie, Judd said, "She will be back."


Britney SpearsL.A. Reid thinks that Britney Spears would have been a successful X Factor contestant.

The "Toxic" singer and "Skyscraper" hitmaker Demi Lovato both joined the judging panel of the show this year, but L.A. believes they would have had no problems competing if they were just starting out because they are both talented and hard workers.

"I think that both Britney and Demi would've been able to handle it. These girls are really talented and they were trained to work hard. They didn't become a success because they were slackers. Both of them worked really, really hard coming up the ranks."

L.A. also claimed he would win if he auditioned because he does such a good rendition of Prince's "When Doves Cry."
He explained, "If it was me, very simple. I would go up and I would sing 'When Doves Cry' by Prince. And I would win. By the way, I would sing it in Boot Camp and would sing it in the finals and I would win. I'd be a one-trick pony and would only do one song, 'When Doves Cry.'"


The Governor, played by David Morrissey

AMC's popular zombie drama series The Walking Dead returns this Fall for its third season with new characters whose small screen arrivals have been eagerly anticipated by the comic book's fans since the series first aired.

One of those characters is the Governor (pictured above), played by British actor David Morrissey. A big bad of the upcoming season, executive producer Greg Nicotero reveals that the Governor on the show will still surprise fans of the comic: "It's very different from what you know of the character from the graphic novel, with the long stringy hair."

Bill and Giuliana RancicGiuliana Rancic will broadcast the birth of her baby boy on her reality show.

The E! News anchor and her husband Bill Rancic welcomed their first child, Edward Duke Rancic, into the world via gestational surrogate last month in Denver, Colorado, and the brunette beauty has decided to share his intimate arrival on the new season of their reality show Giuliana and Bill.

"This is our sixth season and people have followed our story for years. To have people praying for you and supporting you and wanting the best for you and wanting you to have this baby so badly, and then to say, 'Thanks for all your prayers, thanks for your support, we're not showing the baby.' That's wrong," she said.

The couple originally said they wanted his birth to be private but have now decided to follow in the footsteps of Kourtney Kardashian by including their home video camera footage of his birth in their show.

Nicki MinajNicki Minaj is to star in her own reality TV show.

The "Starships" hitmaker - who was recently unveiled as a judge on American Idol - is said to have begun filming a fly-on-the-wall documentary series for the E! network earlier this week, gossip blogger Perez Hilton has revealed.

Insiders are convinced the eccentric singer will make for great viewing. "Nicki's life on camera will blow away all other previous reality stars," one insider said.

There's no word yet as to when the series is expected to air.

Nicki recently revealed she agreed to judge American Idol because it is such a "credible" show: "This is such a credible brand. It's really serious, it's real deal it's not anything else other than really looking for talent. If I can be a part of that I'm really down for it."
