The Emmy announcement was a few minutes ago and sadly Anna didn’t make the cut in the Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series category. Pushing Daisies was also snubbed and failed to get a nomination as Best Comedy Series.

Both Lee Pace and Kristin Chenoweth were nominated in the Outstanding Lead Actor and Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Comedy categories though, and the show was nominated to several other awards. Congrats to the cast and crew of Pushing Daisies! Let’s hope Anna’s amazing work and this great show are recognized by the Television Academy next year.

Venue: Karlovy Vary International Film Festival.

KARLOVY VARY, Czech Republic — Legend has it that Countess Elizabeth Bathory was a murdering monster, the scourge of 16th century Europe, slaughtering virgin girls by the score and bathing in their blood in order to stay young.

June Sarpong is one of those celebrities that it’s a pleasure to see. And last night saw the former T4 star launch her newest venture – a website designed to encourage young people to get interested in politics and issues that affect us all! Political news from around the world will be reported and then next to reports will be explanations of what it all actually means! I think this is a great idea considering so much political news is full of random phrasing that hardly any of us can understand!

June has got a full team of journalists working on the site, www.politicsandthecity.com, and is going to put in a load of time and effort working on the pages herself.

Politics and the City will feature lots of blogs in the coming from celebrities including Lily Cole, Kylie and Dannii Minogue and Anna Friel. Lily’s just posted her first blog and she talks about seeing Stevie Wonder and what she thinks of the US Presidential Election.
