Shiri Appleby Interview -- JustJared.com Exclusive

Life Unexpected actress Shiri Appleby lends her support to designer Monique Lhuillier backstage at her Fall 2010 Fashion Show during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week at the Promenade at Bryant Park on Monday (February 15) in New York City.

Here’s what the 31-year-old star shared:

JJ: What do you love about Monique?

SA: She’s just so feminine and she has an edge to her – later on in the season [on Life Unexpected], I get into a wedding dress and I was just very adamant that I wanted to be wearing Monique Lhuillier. This is my first show, so it’s nice to be at her show for the first time!

JJ: Did you shoot that scene already? How was it?

SA: We shot it! Amazing, the whole show. We finished shooting on Wednesday. I love the glamour of her dress – you walk out and it’s strapless and I had one of those long veils – it was very Princess Diana! I just feel really happy that people are watching it and paying attention to things!

JJ: What’s your favorite prop from the show?

SA: I think probably the radio mics we use in the radio station – I just love any of those scenes so it makes me feel like a real radio DJ.

JJ: Are you obsessed with reality TV at all?

SA: No – unfortunately, I work so much I don’t watch too much TV! I’ve been watching [the 80's show] Thirtysomething on DVD – I don’t think that counts!
————-
By the grace of the fashion gods out there, I was able to sit next to Shiri during the show. “Loved popping my fashion show cherry with you!” she laughed.

A new episode of Life Unexpected airs TONIGHT (February 15) @ 9PM ET/PT on The CW. Tune in!!!

Kristoffer Polaha Interview -- JustJared.com Exclusive

Kristoffer Polaha shows off his dreamboat looks in the March 2010 issue of Da Man magazine, as captured by celeb photog Mitchell McCormack. Here’s what the 32-year-old Life Unexpected actor shared with JustJared.com:

JJ: Could you tell us about your character, Nate (aka Baze)?

KP: He goes by the name of Nate, he owns a bar that he lives above and he sort of is a ne’er-do-well who refuses to grow up, I suppose, until he is confronted with his 15-year-old daughter who he had with own Portland’s own Cate Cassidy and he sort of, without a moment of hesitation, decides to try to be a father figure to this kid and hijinks ensue. Hijinks and high drama!

JJ: What’s your favorite prop from the set?

KP: (laughs) The prop that’s gotten the most use and that we’ve talked about the most is a bong lamp – it’s a lamp that my character had as a college student, let’s say, and then they turned it into a lamp. He gifts it to Lux and you’ll see it in the episode as it unfolds – but I would have to say that that’s probably my favorite prop!
