Colin Egglesfield (The CW’s Melrose Place) has landed a series regular role on Lifetime’s upcoming drama series The Client List. Based on the network’s 2010 original movie, the Sony TV-produced series stars Jennifer Love Hewitt as a Texas housewife who, after being deserted by her husband, takes a job at a seemingly traditional day spa in a neighboring town but realizes that the parlor offers way more than massages and ends up partnering with the parlor’s feisty and disorganized owner to run the business.

All My Children alum Egglesfield will play a new character, Hewitt’s brother-in-law.

According to , Jennifer Love Hewitt is set to star in a new comedy film titled “White Trash Christmas Carol”.

However, McLendon-Covey also plays a mother in Jennifer Love Hewitt’s “White Trash Christmas Carol,” which begins shooting this month in Canada. The comedy has Hewitt taking a lowlife turn as a self-centered, unemployed, whiskey-drinking, Cheez Whiz-eating mother who is about to lose her three children unless she makes some big changes. McLendon-Covey plays “a very reserved character, an uptight mom who doesn’t respond well to Jennifer’s freewheeling ways.”

According to TV Guide, Jennifer Love Hewitt will be one of the many celebrities stopping by the show “RuPaul’s Drag Race” to be guest judges for the show’s fourth season of competition.

RuPaul’s Drag Race, Logo’s campy take on America’s Next Top Model, may not be as well known as the CW hit, but it’s luring some high-profile guest judges that would make other reality shows jealous. When Season 4 of the competition show — which pits drag queens against each other — kicks off in January, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Rose McGowan, Loretta Devine, Kelly Osbourne and two of my personal faves — Modern Family’s Jesse Tyler Ferguson and Glee’s Amber Riley — will be sitting pretty at the judging table.

When there is an official air date for the episode featuring Love, I’ll be sure to post about it!

During her benefit concert at the House of Blues on September 11, singer and book author Deana Martin announced that her 2004 memoir, entitled “Memories Are Made Of This,” is being made into a movie with some celebrated figures hand-picked to help accelerate the project’s long journey to the silver screen.

The book is a 285-page captivating abstract of Hollywood icon Dean Martin’s life, as perceived and witnessed first-hand by the star entertainer’s greatest fan — his devoted daughter.

After taking audience members on an enthralling and visual expedition of some of her best memories growing up with her famous dad, Martin confirmed that singer-turned-actress Jennifer Love Hewitt, 32, is slated to portray the internationally-acclaimed artist in a film adaptation of Martin’s book.
