Ugly Betty star Becki Newton said she has a feeling co-star Ashley Jensen will return to the show after she left earlier this year.

Newton, 30, plays bitchy receptionist Amanda in the hit US sitcom. Jensen, 39, who played Christina, quit the show after location conflicts.

Newton said: “Personally – and I can speak for everyone on the show – we’re really gonna miss Ashley. She’s a very talented, cool, chick. We’ve loved having her around. I think she’ll be back though. I have a feeling!”

She also said she isn’t looking too far into the future: “I don’t really know how long it could go or will go, but Amanda will be answering the phones until she’s 90 years old! I’m so grateful for this opportunity. I think it’s a great show.”

Gossip Girl star Leighton Meester has told how her convicted drug-trafficker mother warned her not to take drugs – but also how she can’t help liking bad boys.

The 23-year-old actress, who plays Blair Waldorf in the hit TV show, was born in a Texan federal prison hospital during her mother Connie’s 10-year jail term for running a drug-trafficking ring. Her father Doug was also jailed for his role in the scheme to smuggle marijuana into the US from Jamaica.

Meester told Australia’s NW magazine: “My parents had a very interesting point of view on drugs because they witnessed a lot of people taking them. They basically said to me don’t do it. So I didn’t. And anything I’ve ever done or tried, I’ve been upfront with them about it.”

The star, who is dating co-star Sebastian Stan, also said that she likes bad boys: “Guys who are rebels and make their own rules are appealing. I want them to be dark and bad. And guys who are a little bad – and by bad I mean they’re not constantly around – I consider gold. Guys who are unavailable are a dream for me because I’m unavailable all the time. It’s great because they’re not down your throat.”

Sienna Miller has reunited with her former lover Balthazar Getty after splitting last month, it has been claimed.

Miller, 27, had been dating dad-of-four Getty, 34, since last year after he split with his wife Rosetta.

However, despite the recent split, the pair have now been seen enjoying a romantic holiday in Italy, confirming rumours they are still together.

It is claimed the actress flew to Positano with Getty’s mother on June 19.

Miller and Getty were later seen taking a boat ride together and kissing over lunch.


Liv Tyler’s child concerns

Posted on Jun 22, 2009 under Actress | 1 Comment

The actress and daughter of Aerosmith front man Stephen Tyler recently witnessed a woman shouting at a crying little child and it made her so angry that she almost caused an accident and wanted to call the police. Liv Tyler apparently said the following to the woman: “You can’t do that! I’m going to call the police, I’m going to call Child Services!” but it seems the woman didn’t understand English. How ironic that such a noble endeavor on Liv Tyler’s behalf would yield so little results. But then again, it is good publicity, isn’t it so maybe it wasn’t all that bad.
