Kim Raver Joins Grey's Anatomy
Lipstick Jungle fans will be happy to hear that Kim Raver is checking into Seattle Grace. It has been announced that the actress will join the cast of 'Grey's Anatomy' as a new surgeon.
Her first appearance will be on November 12th, so set your DVRs.
What do you think about the addition? I really like Kim (from 24 not from Lipstick Jungle), so I'm always happy to see her getting new work.
Lipstick Jungle Is Cancelled
E!'s Party Girl got the word from the star, Brooke Shields, herself that NBC has finally made a decision: Lipstick Jungle is cancelled.
'It was going to stay and we just were officially told it's finally not
coming back,' she said at the Latisse launch party last night. 'It's
very sad. I think a lot of people were really sad, but I think we hung
on a really long time. It was three great years that we've been working
on it.' "
I knew it wasn't looking good when Lindsay Price was cast in a new pilot, but since her new role was in "second position" to her role on Lipstick Jungle (meaning Lindsay couldn't be in the new show if Lipstick Jungle was renewed), there was still some hope.
Well, despite low ratings, the show did get three years. Join me in mourning in the comments :(

Celebrities Out With Their Children
Several celebrities were photographed out with their children over the weekend. Uma Thurman and her son Levon caught a Broadway show together. Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise brought along several of Suri's dolls while exiting their NYC apartment. Meanwhile, Kim Raver took advantage of the great weather NYC has been having and strolled around her little man in the East Village.

Brooke Shields Hosts Tupperware Party In NYC
Last weekend, I was lucky enough to get an invite to a Tupperware party hosted by Brooke Shields. The event took place in The House and all proceeds were donated to the Boys and Girls Club of America. 100% of sales!!
Brooke's first Tupperware Tea Party included several of her celebrity friends including her Lipstick Jungle co-stars, Kim Raver and Paul Blackthorne. Also in attendance were Rosie Perez and Jane Krakowski. We even got a sneak peek at Brooke's new line, Radiance which will debut in January.
I have two gift bags from this party to give away and you will NOT be disappointed! The lotions alone are to DIE for. I can't stop putting mine on! (Contest coming up very soon - stay tuned before noon)
Now onto the insider scoop.
When Brooke first arrived, Tupperware gifted her with a "bag" made out of Swarovski crystals and a Tupperware box for her daughters. She was really excited to receive it. You can see a picture of it in the thumbnails below.
Rosie Perez and I chatted a bit about red meat. I can't tell you how we got on the subject, but it turns out the actress doesn't eat any because of a childhood experience she had that traumatized her.
When she was young, her family couldn't afford to purchase red meat. So, they lived on chicken and pork. When she was about 7, a friend's family offered her a steak for the first time and she started to cry because she thought her chicken had gone bad and they were trying to make her eat decayed meat. She ran home to tell her mother who then explained what it was. Rosie was utterly embarrassed and was then picked on for many years over the event. Eventually, she got enough courage up to try a hamburger and threw up immediately. That is when she decided to never eat meat again.
Paul Blackthorne was my new best friend. Not because he is devilishly handsome, but because he was so FUNNY! We sarcastically went back and forth the entire day and I really enjoyed his company. I wish him much success from and after Lipstick Jungle. He plays Brooke's husband for those who don't watch the show.
Kim Raver actually made me a little star struck. 24 is one of my most favorite shows - but no pictures were allowed with her so I couldn't snag one. I was REALLY upset about that one. But I wanted to respect the "rules" and let it go.
Brooke was a busy bee taking pictures and doing interview the entire time. She was running up and down the stairs going wherever Tupperware needed her to smiling all along. Whenever she had a moment, she would huddle up with Kim and Jane to laugh and catch up.
Lindsay Price was supposed to attend, but she fell ill that morning.
Jane Krakowski was as fun in person as you would think she was. We spoke only for a few moments while we were getting our picture taken, but she really was as sweet and genuine as ever. And petite! Did I mention petite?
And for all of you tea lovers out there (yes, I'm right there with you), Tupperware has just launched a new line of tea pots and tea flavors for purchase. They had them brewed at the event and I think I drank about 6 glasses of the iced one. So YUMMY! This isn't your mother's Tupperware anymore!
Kim Raver For Cookie Magazine
Kim Raver is on the cover of next month's Cookie Magazine and WOW does she look beautiful with her babies! I love her on Lipstick Jungle. That show has really grown on me, so I was excited to read her interview. The poor woman talks about her struggles with weight and body image after having a baby.
On returning to work to
the set of Lipstick Jungle after having her second son Leo just
weeks after giving birth… "It was important to me to experience both
nursing Leo and recovering from having him. I'd be in a fitting trying to
squeeze into clothes, and I'd think, I'm not doing this. There's going
to be more milk, and healthier milk, if I'm eating well, and I'm already
stressed out because of my work level."On her body image after
having a baby: "I remember crying at one photo shoot because I couldn't
get into the dresses I'd normally fit into. Brooke [Shields, her
costar] was so lovely. She reminded me that [this period is just] a short
window."Raver's message to other
new moms: "Remember to love the body you're in after having a baby. You're
not sleeping. You're juggling one, two, or three kids. If it's emotionally
satisfying at three or four in the morning, when the baby won't go back to
sleep, have a piece of chocolate! While you nurture your baby, it's
important to nurture yourself."
It's so sad that actresses and women in general feel so much pain over the way we look. The media has fooled us into thinking that just having a baby isn't good enough, we need to be a size zero after giving birth too.
