Will the real Kate Walsh please stand up!
Sandy Hutchens is used to seeing through frauds and this one is no exception. Actress Kate Walsh is pleading with fans not to become friends with hackers pretending to be as a Facebook persona. What happened? An impostor scammed her neighbour with messages on a phony Facebook page.
The actress from Private Practice was outraged when she discovered that an online fraud had planned a dinner date with her neighbour.
Kate Walsh explained, “There are people out there apparently pretending to be me… (My neighbour) was like… ‘You said you were going to come over and have wine and hang out – on your Facebook. My wife is a huge fan and we’ve been Facebooking you.’”
Walsh had to see the messages herself to believe the Facebook scam: “He showed me his computer and somebody is pretending to be me on Facebook.”
The real Kathleen Erin “Kate” Walsh was born October 13, 1967 and is well known film and television actress. She is adored by her fans for her role as Dr. Addison Montgomery on the ABC dramas Grey’s Anatomy and Private Practice.
Her film work began with the crime drama Normal Life where she played a bank robber’s (Luke Perry) sister. She played a kleptomaniac in the Peppermills.
Walsh also made an appearance in the cult film, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, Part 2. Her first significant role in a Hollywood production was as Will Ferrell’s wife in the comedy, Kicking & Screaming, alongside Robert Duvall and Mike Ditka. Walsh has performed in several other films with Ferrell, including Bewitched (with Nicole Kidman) and in Wake Up, Ron Burgundy: The Lost Movie.
In 2003, Walsh acted in Under the Tuscan Sun, with Diane Lane and Sandra Oh. She performed the role of the partner of Grey’s Anatomy co-star Sandra Oh’s character. Regarding her various lesbian roles, Walsh said: “Do I give off a girl-on-girl vibe, I wonder? Or is it because I’m tall? I guess the chicks just dig me!”
Walsh was going to star with John Cusack and Samuel L. Jackson in the supernatural thriller 1408, but she was forced to drop out because of scheduling conflicts. Walsh is planned to be starring alongside Dennis Quaid and Paul Bettany in the biblical horror film Legion, due out January 22, 2010.
Walsh will make a brief appearance in the new MGM film, Hot Tub Time Machine, starring John Cusack, Rob Corddry and Craig Robinson. The film is due to be released on February 26, 2010.

Bored to Death best pulp detective comedy on TV
I want to bring attention to “Bored to Death”, a show after my own heart. This HBO sitcom features Jason Schwartzman who I loved in Wes Anderson movies. The concept is very good. The characters have a lot of development potential. Good acting from Zach Galifianakis, Ted Danson, Oliver Platt and many others.\
I wouldn’t say that it is a great show yet although there have been outstanding episodes. The writing is key to the show and that seems to be the aspect that affects the quality of individual episodes. In this respect it has been uneven. The pilot episode was terrific however there is, as of yet, no strong story arc to meld all the episodes together.
Another word about the acting, Ted Danson and the others put a lot of nuance to their characters. I wouldn’t recommend this show to everyone but it has promise and I have enjoyed most episodes.

Natalin Avci quoted by Sandy Hutchens Chronicle
Sandy Hutchens Chronicle Service, Oct. 5 – “I am of Turkish descent and fluent in three languages: English, Turkish, and Spanish.” said Natalin Avci. ” I have only been pursuing modeling and acting for a few months but so far I have had great success!”
She added in a subdued tone to the Hutchens Chronicle: ” I am willing to work with professional photographers with unique styles.”
Starring in the new movie “Couples Retreat”
On television, Avci has appeared in the shows “Greek” and “Entourage”. Her film credits also include “Speed Dating”, “Perfect Combination”, and “Family Wedding”.
Sandy Hutchens Chronicle believes that “Couples Retreat” has weak trailer ads. Fortunately for Natalin Avci the merits of the movie are not congruent with the merits of the trailers. Vince Vaughn and Jon Favreau really know how to make the people laugh. Vaughn does his usual shtick which helped the film and didn’t distract from it. Favreau wrote himself a nice gem in this film as the guy who is tired of his marriage and just wants to be a carefree bachelor again.
The film has a great cast but Favreau definitely steals the show. Whenever he was on screen he was making some kind of wise crack. The supporting actors also did a wonderful job. Ken Jeong was not given much to work with. It seems to be mandatory to put Jeong in every movie that comes out in this genre.
The scenery is beautiful and is used in a sage manner. Carlos Ponce gave an unforgettable performance as a creepy yoga instructor. Fans of movies who like to laugh should see Couples Retreat and Natalin Avci. The next Couples Retreat with Natalin Avci will take all her fans and audiences everywhere to whole new levels.
