The lashing rain didn't keep host Jennifer Garner from the I Have a Dream Foundation Los Angeles' Dreamkeeper Awards and Gospel Brunch Sunday at the Sunset Strip House of Blues. The awards, given to Grey's Anatomy's Sara Ramirez, CSI: NY's Hill Harper and businessman James Berk, honored those who share the foundation's vision of a strong commitment to foster the academic development of youth all over the United States.Garner emphasized the importance of mentorship programs for children, crediting a short list of mentors who inspired her toward her goals. "That's part of the reason why I believe in this so much. I'm definitely a product of my mentors," said Garner. "I had a school librarian, Annis McCann, who really believed in me, and my ballet teacher, Nina Denton, mentored me. I had great parents, and I had an older sister who was and is somebody I look up to. And in college, I had people who just took that extra time with me. And you know, I wasn't the straight-A, good kid. I did...

Turns out Gabrielle Union spoke too soon when she told TVGuide.com that the writers' strike nixed her chances of joining Ugly Betty. Multiple sources confirm to me exclusively that the Bring It On actress has just closed a deal to play Wilhelmina's younger sister.As I scooped in Ask Ausiello last month, the character — Dominique — is described as a relentless party animal who has a skeleton rattling around in her closet. Incidentally, the role was initially supposed to be recurring, but due to the you-know-what, Union's only booked for one episode. Speaking of the you-know-what, click here to watch my latest adventure stalking Amy Sherman-Palladino on the picket line.

Nearly every industry professional points out that the strike not only affects the writers, but everyone in entertainment. That notion struck Gabrielle Union squarely. Attending the two-year anniversary party for Tao in Las Vegas, Union told TV Guide, "We were trying to work out a little part [for me in] Ugly Betty, and then the strike came!" If she gets the chance, Union will play "Wilhelmina's younger sister, who's crazy! Hopefully we'll be able to work it out soon, and squeeze her in somewhere!" — Reporting by Stefanie Szlamkowicz

Before we get started, lemme just say that I got a new tattoo last night and it’s quite fetching. Red circle with a star in the center on the inside left forearm. Even the artist dug it. My buddy Jake got an anchor on his bicep…little jealous, not gonna lie. Hurt like a mofo, though. Kids, don’t try this at home.OK, now that we got that out of the way, it’s time for a little more sharing: I love the scary. Horror movies. Haunted houses. Hell, I yelped like a girl at those Burger King commercials with the wooden-faced whatever-that-is. And to anyone who was sitting near me during Rob Zombie’s Halloween remake, I apologize. Welbutrin make me all better now.Honestly, I have willingly chosen to have the bejebus freaked out of me for like, the last 7 years, spending almost every night in October watching some scream gem or another (ask me about The Boogens, please!). So, in honor of my inner scaredy-cat and the glorious approach of my personal High Holy Day of Ha...
