Kristen Bell Looking Like Diane Kruger in a Creepifying Way

Kristen Bell (Heroes, Veronica Mars) in Peach Magazine looks eerily like Diane Kruger:

Speaking of Diane Kruger, as I understand it (and who knows how well I understand anything!) Kruger was going to be in Moonlight, but then backed out - seems like a good call since the show has now been canceled. And I completly understand why. Not even Jason Dohring could get me to watch that after two episodes.

Kruger dates Joshua Jackson, who will be in the new J.J. Abrams Fox tv show, Fringe. Yay! Two cute pictures of the couple after the jump.

You guys - let me know if the season three finale of Supernatural KILLEDYOUDEAD cause I am going to arrange some group therapy! Oh, Dean!

Today is a day to listen to Veruca Salt songs as loud as possible, wear green eye shadow, and drink sugary lemonade that makes you lick your lips after every sip. (Oh, and to catch up on Greek!)

Catching Up with Kristen Bell

The quirky and always lovable Kristen Bell is in Women’s Health Magazine for May 2008. I am crazy-happy to hear that she’s in constant contact and good friends with Veronica Mars alum Ryan Hansen (and his wife). I never even had a fleeting fangirl moment of Veronica/Dick shipping, but maybe if you were that will make you happy. I know Jason Dohring (Logan Echolls, Veronica’s big love on the show) is married, but I wish we could hear about them still being friends and hanging out. Maybe that would happen if they were on the same network, but Dohring is on Moonlight with CBS, while Bell is on Heroes for NBC. Alas!

In the Women’s Health interview, Bell describes herself as a homebody. (Woo, let’s hear it for those of us who’d rather watch a movie at home with friends instead of hanging out at a migraine-inducing bar all night!) As a homebody, she certainly has fun, though. She lives in a house with four of her friends, and they use one of the rooms as the ‘dance-party room’ and slide around in it in their socks. I’d so be up for that. My kitten, Frida, loves to do her own variation of that. I open up the Diet Coke boxes I have and she sort of slides through them with a running start, which sends her and the box swooshing across the kitchen floor. It’s a good time for all.

On the health front, what can we do to mimic Bells’ routine? She said she always takes the stairs - no matter what. And she does yoga. Both of those sounds doable. But then you hear that she “trains twice a week to build muscle.” And that doesn’t sound fun at all. I don’t know. Maybe it depends on what music she’s listening to. Can’t we all just jump on trampolines and sing karaoke?

As many know, Bell does the voiceovers on Gossip Girl. She plays the anonymous voice of the person who writes a scandal-filled blog about everyone. When asked what it was like to be this voice, i.e. “cattiness incarnate” - Bell said, “I channel the voice that everybody’s had in her head since grade school. … You’re worried that someone is thinking something bad about you, so you think it about them first.” Sure, I might have that voice in my head, but it’s always had a Scottish accent - what’s THAT about? Why does Ewan McGregor hate me!?

Stealing Hearts and Kissing Poodles

That’s what James Marsters is doing now. Or at least his new character is. (Or wants to do.)
Marsters played a platinum-haired vampire on Buffy the Vampire Slayer (where he first won me over, I can’t seem to resist sexy vampires*), and now he’s playing a brunette Time Agent (read: thief) on Torchwood.

Torchwood is a spin-off of the BBC show Doctor Who. It airs on BBC America and BBC Two. It is currently in its second season. That means you can catch up. Yay! (Under the jump I’ve put links for the DVDs.)

Marsters plays Captain John Hart. Tvguide.com recently had an interview with James about this role. He told TVguide that Torchwood is, “… a funny, subversive show like Buffy. I feel very much at home.”

There is also this gem of a quote:

“My character is way beyond bisexual. Spike was a romantic; this guy would do anything that moved. I cast a lustful glance at a poodle!”
