Smash’s Megan Hilty on Playing Marilyn Monroe

Feb 13, 2012 @ 6:30 pm

Ivy Lynn (Megan Hilty) and Karen Cartwright (Katharine McPhee) are both vying for the role of Marilyn Monroe on tonight’s episode of Smash, and we caught with Hilty at New York Fashion Week to get the inside scoop on what it’s like to channel the icon. “It’s so much fun,” Hilty said of playing Monroe. “At first it’s a little terrifying, taking on something like that, but I get to hide behind my character a little bit. I can say ‘Oh, Ivy Lynn is playing Marilyn.’” Catch Smash tonight at 10/9c on NBC. Tell us: Are you Team Ivy or Team Karen?

Rachel Berry of Glee’s Engagement Ring: The Inside Scoop!

Feb 8, 2012 @ 12:15 pm

Finn Hudson (Cory Monteith) proposed to Rachel Berry (Lea Michele) on Glee this week, and she said yes! So, how did the engagement ring—a heart-shaped diamond in channel setting featuring six smaller round diamonds—come to be? We caught up with Paul Breuninger, the show’s prop master, to find out. “When I picked the rings, I tried to be very character specific, and consider what’s proper and appropriate for Lea and Cory,” Breuninger told InStyle.com of shopping for the fictional high school students. After picking out several options, he showed them to a few staffers, including Ms. Michele. “Lea seemed fine with all of the choices, so we deferred to Cory, who made the final decision in the end.” (Like a true engagement!) The designer, however, remains unknown. “TV is too fast to bring in a lot of big-name designers, but letting Cory and Lea in on the process gave them a feeling a participation, so they could better get into their performances.” How romantic!
