Read Who Should Be the Next CoverGirl?

Ellen DeGeneres by Jeffrey Mayer/ WireImage.com
CoverGirl made a bold, unconventional choice this week when they announced that Ellen DeGeneres would be the new face of the beauty brand, following in the footsteps of Christie Brinkley, Queen Latifah and Drew Barrymore.

Who else do you think deserves the CoverGirl treatment? 30 Rock's Tina Fey has already nabbed a Marie Claire cover. Oscar nominee Ellen Page would make one righteous home skillet. How about unusual TV beauties Weeds' Allie Grant or Mad Men's Elisabeth Moss? Chandra Wilson? Sandra Oh? Or, um, the entire cast of Grey's Anatomy?

What do you think? Tell us your unconventional CoverGirls.
Read Have Any Burning Questions About Fringe?

Lance Reddick by George Holz/Fox
I'm going to be speaking to the producers of Fringe today. Now that you've seen the highly anticipated pilot, do you have any burning questions? Here are a few I came up with; please leave yours in the comments section. — Mickey O'Connor

1. What's up with those symbols (leaf, frog, etc.) that appear at the commercial breaks? Are they some kind of puzzle that we're supposed to "figure out"?

2. Why was Walter Bishop institutionalized in the first place? Sure, he's eccentric, but most of the time he seems perfectly lucid.

3. Why do they have a cow in the lab? I know they said something about similar DNA, but why not a monkey or rats like they usually have in a lab?

4. Who do you think should play William Bell, CEO of Massive Dynamics?

5. How did they film that scene with Blair Brown's cool robot arm?

6. Similarly, is the Massive Dynamics headquarters a real building?

7. Who did those cool title cards ("Essex County, Massachusetts", etc.) — are they by any chance by the same people who did Panic Room's opening credits? Or did J.J. do them?

8. What did they use to make Mark Valley's skin look translucent?

9. While we're on the subject, it appears that Mark is a cast regular. Is he dead, alive, something else (zombie? YES, PLEASE!), or does it even matter?

10. Do planes really land themselves at Logan Airport?

11. How often will Lance Reddick appear, and has his casting on Fringe changed his role on Lost at all?

12. Will Olivia Dunham ever crack a smile? (See Anna Torv's answer to the same question here.)

Read Who Should Play SNL's Michelle Obama?

Does anyone have Ellen Cleghorn's number?

While everyone waits to see if 30 Rocker Tina Fey will moonlight on Saturday Night Live as Sen. John McCain's VP pick, Sarah Palin, the long-running sketch show has a bigger — and perhaps longer-term — gap to fill.

Conventional wisdom says that if super-busy Fey can't make time to channel the governor of Alaska, the likes of Kristen Wiig could ably slip on some character glasses and step in. Easy 'nuff. (Just make sure there's a prop baby squirming in the background at all times, even if the scene takes place at, say, midnight.)

Elsewhere on the two tickets, you have Darrell Hammond as McCain, Fred Armisen as Barack, and probably Jason Sudeikis as Biden. Amy Poehler, though pregnant, is a spot-on Cindy McCain.

But finding someone on the current ensemble to send up Barack Obama's wife, Michelle, is a bigger row to hoe. Kenan Thompson in drag? So not going to happen. Maya Rudolph? Long gone.

The buzz over at SNL is that the show really wants to get Mrs. O right, and is exploring many options. Who would you recruit for the plum gig? — Matt Mitovich
