Felicity Huffman gets a few good scoops
September 12, 2009 by Amy Bartner
Awwww, tease! Felicity Huffman got a few good scoops of ice cream, that is…for her 9-year-old daughter, Sofia.
The two were walking on Friday in Studio City after getting a cone and two soft drinks.

Fit ‘Desperate Housewives’ prepare for triathlon
September 7, 2009 by Amy Bartner
As I reported a little while ago, Felicity Huffman is training to participate in the Nautica Malibu Triathlon.
Well, turns out, she’s not alone.
Teri Hatcher’s going to do the triathlon, too, which is Sept. 13 and supports the Pediatric Cancer Research Program at Childrens Hospital Los Angeles. Teri’s got here own donation site, with a goal of raising at least $10,000. She’s got a little more than $3,000 right now, so if you’ve got some money, help a sista out! Donate here!
She’s got a short blog on the site, too, which is pretty adorable to read.

“Desperate Housewives” are among the highest-paid TV actors
August 12, 2009 by Amy Bartner
Eva Longoria Parker, Marcia Cross, Felicity Huffman and Teri Hatcher each make $395,000 PER episode.
That sounds like a shocking amount of money, but I sorta expected it to be higher? TV Guide reported that the ladies are third to “House”’s Hugh Laurie, who rakes in $400,000 per episode. But the highest-paid actor is Kiefer Sutherland, who gets $550,000 for each episode of “24.”
I’ll gladly shoot just one episode for them. Just one. And I’d be set for……more than 10 years. Jus’ sayin’…..

More shots of the ‘wives filming the wedding for next season
July 20, 2009 by Amy Bartner
I’m assuming they put Gaby in some super high heels, because she looks like she’s about four feet tall in the photo. And the dress? Is this a dress Gaby would wear to a wedding?
And here’s a shot of Felicity Huffman as Lynette, shot on the set Monday. I love her cute flippy hair and the ’50s-wife-style dress.

William H. Macy on wife, Felicity Huffman: She makes me melt
March 30, 2009 by Amy Bartner
This interview with Parade magazine is so unbelievably adorable.
Here’s what William H. Macy had to say about his wife being part of a gorgeous cast of women:
“The others are sort of model beautiful women and Felicity is not a model type. But I think she’s the sexiest on that show. What is sexy? It’s hard to put it into words. The way she carries herself. And she keeps in really great shape. She’s got the kind of body that makes me melt. She’s cut. She’s strong and lithe and capable. I love that.”
A couple like this is hard to find …read more
Felicity Huffman on ‘The Ellen DeGeneres Show’ on Thursday!
March 11, 2009 by Amy Bartner
OK, I can’t take this one. For those of you who don’t work during the day, I’m completely jealous that you’ll be able to watch Felicity Huffman talk to Ellen on Thursday (11 a.m. in my part of the country — check out www.ellentv.com to see what time she’ll be on for you!). She’ll talk about her new movie, “Phoebe in Wonderland.” She’s shown above at the March 1 screening with Elle Fanning.
These two ladies are two of my favorite people. And Olympic gymnast Shawn Johnson will be on it, too! No worries, though. I’ll immediately come home and Google …read more
Nicollette walks dog, hugs Felicity on the set of ‘Desperate Housewives’
March 2, 2009 by Amy Bartner
Maybe there’s something in the San Pellegrino on Wisteria Lane, but it seems like we’ve seen a lot of hugging between castmates lately (and no, I’m not talking about the soon-to-be infamous kiss between Teri Hatcher and Eva Longoria Parker).
First, Felicity Huffman and Nicollette Sheridan share a hug on Friday on the set of the show (and Nicollette later looks like a picture-perfect model while walking her dog) and then Felicity gives Eva a squeeze during the screening of her new movie, “Phoebe in Wonderland.”

Some of the ‘wives attend ‘Phoebe in Wonderland’ screening
March 2, 2009 by Amy Bartner
Eva Longoria Parker, Marcia Cross and Dana Delany came out to support Felicity Huffman at the screening of her new movie, “Phoebe in Wonderland” on Sunday.
I’m not quite sure what Marcia and Dana are wearing (and haven’t we seen Eva’s shoes already? Good to know she’s like the rest of us and doesn’t wear a pair of shoes only once!) but isn’t this next photo the cutest thing you’ve ever seen? I love it when photographers catch genuine stuff like this, because it’s gotta be real. Right?
In this photo, Eva is thinking: “Man, Felicity, you really _________”

Felicity Huffman in ‘Phoebe in Wonderland’

Phoebe in Wonderland Trailer
Maybe I’m behind in keeping up with movies coming out (probably because the only movie I’ve seen so far this year is “He’s Just Not That Into You”), but I just discovered this charming little movie called “Phoebe in Wonderland,” starring Dakota Fanning’s equally adorable (and apparently talented?) little sister, Elle Fanning.
Felicity plays Elle’s mother, who becomes frustrated when she can’t please her own daughter. Hmm….other than the frumpy brown wig, gotta say…this sounds like a familiar character to me.
Anyway, the movie’s released on March 6, this Friday. I mean, what else are you going to do …read more
100 episodes! A Desperate Housewives timeline
January 17, 2009 by Amy Bartner
Variety ran this timeline of the ‘wives, from the beginning — when marketers promoted the show with dry-cleaning bags. It’s an interesting look back, and I can’t believe we’re just a day away from the 100th episode. I viiiividly remember when I first saw a commercial advertising the show. My thoughts? “Whaaaat?? Are they seriously going to have a show called ‘Desperate Housewives’? That’s so sleazy.” Anyway, to make a long story short, I fell in love with them and five years later I had their baby, which we named DesperateBlog.com. The end!
The Variety package on the 100th episode goes …read more
