Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Award Shows, Comedy, Music, Prime Time, ABC, FOX, Gossip,
UPDATE: It turns out Ed O'Neill was apparently misquoted. You can read the retraction statement here.
“I love Jane, honestly I do. I’m dying to star in one of Christopher Guest’s movies alongside her, but I don’t think she should have gotten the Emmy for that part. [Sue Sylvester] is just a one-note character."
-Modern Family star Ed O'Neill on Jane Lynch's Best Supporting Actress win for her role on Glee. (For the record: Ed was the only adult from his ABC show to not receive an Emmy nomination.)

Quote of the Day: DWTS’ Maksim Chmerkovskiy on Being Eliminated
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Gossip,
"Yeah, for me personally, it's probably the one that's the hardest to swallow. ...This season has just been ridiculous since day one. Just one after another after another. Brandy and I think this is the culminating point of this season, it just came crashing down. We almost feel like the effort wasn't worth it. We put in a lot of work. We put in a lot of effort. It's been a very, very difficult season. ... It just feels like it was an uphill climb the entire time and to really come that short of the finale. It's just very upsetting."
-Maksim Chmerkovskiy reacting to the surprise elimination this week on Dancing with the Stars. (Maksim and partner Brandy saw Bristol Palin make it to the finals over them.)

Quote of the Day: Gilles Marini on Romancing Same Woman as His Mother
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Gossip,
"I didn’t have the guts to bring it up with her! Her role went to more than first base – my role was all about, “hey look at me, I’m doing other girls, you like it?” [laughs] It was completely different. But yes, mother and son romanced Kim Cattrall. We’re definitely French, that’s for sure! [laughs]."
-Brothers & Sisters' Gilles Marini on Sonia Braga, the actress who will play his mother on the ABC show. Both Marini and Braga starred opposite Cattrall on Sex and the City (if you know what I mean).

Quote of the Day: Ryan Gosling on His Famous Mickey Mouse Club Costars
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Kids, Music, Gossip, Video,
"It was kind of depressing because when I got there, they realized that I wasn’t really up to snuff in comparison with what some of the other kids were able to do. I remember one time they put four of us in a dance routine, but I was so off. I was on the end, so they just pushed the shot in closer on the other three guys to frame me out. I would just come in at the beginning of the show and then come back at the end, and occasionally I’d have a sketch here or there, but I didn’t end up working that much, which was disheartening."
-Oscar nominee Ryan Gosling on what it was like to be on the Mickey Mouse Club at the same time as Justin Timberlake, JC Chasez, Britney Spears and Christina Aguilera. (Ryan can be seen singing with Justin and JC above.)

Quote of the Day: Nigel Lythgoe on Idol After Simon Cowell
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Music, Prime Time, Reality, FOX, American Idol, Gossip,
"We've had some incredible country voices -- in truth, Simon would have gotten rid of them straight-away because he wasn't a country fan. This season we have a 16-year-old kid with an incredible voice and a jazz kid who does this fabulous scat-singing. Again, we wouldn't have had him on the show because Simon would have said, 'He's not an American Idol! Get rid of him!' ... What you are definitely going to get this season is an American voice and American music."
-Executive producer Nigel Lythgoe on the benefits of Simon Cowell leaving American Idol.

Quote of the Day: Patrick Swayze’s Widow on DWTS’ Jennifer Grey
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Prime Time, Reality, ABC, Dancing With The Stars, Gossip, Video,
“A friend asked me if I thought Jennifer was being sincere, and I said absolutely. I thought she was sincere. There’s got to be some part of her that knows it will help her chances a little bit. But does that cancel out whether she really does care? No, it doesn’t. I think her feelings are very true and at the same time, I think she’s going to win!”
-Patrick Swayze’s widow, Lisa Niemi, commenting about Jennifer Grey‘s emotional moment—and future—on Dancing with the Stars.
