AMY BRENNEMAN ON JUSTIN THEROUX'S BIG BULGE

Amy Brenneman Actress Amy Brenneman stopped by HuffPost Live yesterday to talk with Host Ricky Camilleri about her new HBO series “The Leftovers” and weighed in on the important matter of co-star Justin Theroux’s bulge that appeared in the show’s first episode. Ricky Camilleri: “[Liv Tyler] referenced this hilarious thing about Justin Theroux’s sweatpants in the pilot. Did you hear about this? She referenced his sweatpants’ bulge and said that she noticed it clearly in the screening of the pilot. Did that become a cast joke for everybody or is that just her own private joke?” Brenneman: “I think Liv…[it was] in the privacy of her own thoughts. I know exactly what she means because there is a flashback episode where he jogs again and it did bring the pilot back. [Theroux's bulge] is really adorable, and a very specific choice. And I don't know who came up with that -- if it was Justin, wardrobe, Damon [Lindelof].”

HEDWIG AND THE ANGRY INCH IS JUST ASTONISHING

Image
**** THE GLORIOUS CORNER Story By: G. H. HARDING **** Neil Patrick Harris HARRIS SIZZLES IN HEDWIG --- Neil Patrick Harris in Hedwig and the Angry Inch is just astonishing. We saw it Wednesday and I'm tempted to say it was one of the best things I've ever seen on Broadway. Harris, who won a Tony this year for this performance, is a triple-threat for sure. I even remember him as Doogie Howser, M.D. on TV, and his work in the just-ended How I Met Your Mother was superb. He’s been in Glee, Rent, hosted the Tony Awards, and has appeared in such movies as the forthcoming Gone Girl and A Million Ways To Die in the West. Hedwig and the Angry Inch is a rock musical about a fictional rock and roll band fronted by an East German transgender singer. The text is by John Cameron Mitchell, and the music and lyrics are by Stephen Trask. The musical premiered in 1998 and has been performed throughout the world in hundreds of stage productions. ...

STONESTREET DISHES RICK SANTORUM ON GAY ISSUES

Image
Eric Stonestreet There's no question that Emmy-winning sitcom "Modern Family" is influencing American cultural opinions on same-sex relationships through its characters Mitch and Cam. And that influence goes all the way up to the most powerful people on the planet, as revealed in a HuffPost Live interview with actor Eric Stonestreet yesterday. Stonestreet spoke to HuffPost Live's Caitlyn Becker about the show's impact, and also explained why he refused to take a picture with former Pennsylvania Senator Rick Santorum. Stonestreet: "President Obama mentioned in an interview like three weeks ago, just casually, that Michelle and the kids watch Mitch and Cam and they're in tears. To hear the leader of the free world, the president of the United States, say that and to know we have that sort of reach with people and that the people in power and leadership are watching the show [is incredible]." Stonestreet: "Rick S...
