Great news!

Debra Messing is coming back to television for the show Smash, the story about a gay man and a young woman who try to organize a broadway show about Marilyn Monroe.

You might remember that Messing was on a little show back in the day called Will & Grace, a show also about NYC where the male lead is a gay man. That's as far as the coincidences go, though, because this is slated as a drama!

Here's a bit of a synopsis:

"An ambitious drama about the mounting of a Broadway musical, which was based on an idea by Steven Spielberg. The pilot, produced by DreamWorks TV and UMS, follows a cross section of characters who come together to put on a Marilyn Monroe musical on Broadway. At the heart of the show are the musical's composer Tom, who is gay, and the lyricist Julia (Messing), who is somewhat against the idea of a Marilyn Monroe-themed musical."

Sounds good to us!! Especially because the show will feature actual original music and scores for the Broadway play they're trying to make!

Fab!

Good to see U back, bb!

Will U watch Smash??

After Gavin Rossdale admitted to having a gay affair at 17-years-old, his former cross-dressing lover Marilyn (aka Peter Robinson) was not thrilled with his confession.

Marilyn said:

"I find it sad that when I spoke out about what we had, I was labelled a tattletale - and now, Gavin is using it to promote himself'.

I am "pleased that Gavin is finally able to be honest about our relationship' he wishes the rocker 'could have come to terms with this 15 years ago.

Maybe one day Gwen will allow my name to be spoken again in her home without it having any negative connotations. We were together five years. But it felt like 40."

That is not gonna happen!

Nice try, honey.

And the truth is revealed!

Gavin Rossdale recently gave an interview to Details Magazine, in which he FINALLY put speculation to rest regarding a rumor that he and the gender-bending pop singer Marilyn were intimate when he was younger!

And guess what?? The rumors are TRUE!

He explains:

Details: Last year, the cross-dressing pop singer Marilyn revealed that he was romantically involved with you in your teens—an assertion Boy George first made in 1995. Why haven't you talked about those claims?

"I think at the outset there was a sort of fear—that was right at the beginning of Bush, and I didn't want it to be part of it. It felt like a cheap shot, so I was like, "I'm not getting involved." I've never wanted to appear closed about it. It's not something I've talked about really because it's always been in the glare of a tabloid world. It's just one of those things: Move on. When you're 17, Jesus Christ. I don't think there's anything strange about any form of—you're learning about life. It's a part of growing up. That's it. No more, no less."

Details: So it was just a one-time experimentation?

"Yeah. That was it. You have to know what you like, and I know what I like."

Wowza!

But hey, we have to give him credit!

There's only way to find out whether you like something or not, and we doubt that most people wouldn't be comfortable enough to speak so candidly about it!

Thanks for opening up, bb!

Looks like Veronica Mars may become Veronica Munsters!

Pushing Daisies creator Bryan Fuller, who's behind the upcoming Munsters reboot for NBC, wants Kristen Bell as Marilyn in the new show.

For those unaware, Marilyn is the only member of the Munster family who doesn't look like a monster, but they all refer to her as "plain" looking, even though she's gorgeous.

We're not 100% sure how we feel about this, but we're def curious to see how this project progresses.

Would U like to see Kristen Bell return to TV in The Munsters?
