Josh Holloway Says Get Lost to Hair, But Hello to Fans

PopSugarUK — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 23:00:00 -0700

Josh Holloway joined his fellow Lost cast members for the opening of The Counter in Hawaii at the weekend. Before he got stuck in to the food at the Honolulu restaurant he found time to chat with Loaded magazine about his plans and his fans. Here are the highlights:

On whether he's looking forward to the end of Lost: "Oh my god, yes! I’m looking forward to knowing what the f*** is going on, first of all. I still have no clue. The only thing I ever got right was the island moving, which was pretty good, but that’s it. I don’t know what the story is and where we’ll end up."
On what he'll do when the show finishes: "I may shave my head into a fine mohawk, like a tall one, because one of our camera operators had a beautiful mohawk for the first two years. I’ve always wanted one."

To find out what Josh said about the fans who approach him, read more.

On the Lost fans who approach him: "It’s more older, drunk, American women that come up to me. [They say] 'Oh my god!' and they grab me and shake me, and stuff like that. It’s not your 21-year-old hotties that ever talk to me. Nope, it’s normally older ladies that have been drinking too many Mai Tais at their dinner."
On whether that kind of attention bothers him: "I don’t mind. I like a good saucer. It doesn’t bother me. [A saucer is] an older lady who likes a cocktail or two. I don’t judge."

Sounds like Josh is a pretty friendly guy. Would you want to see him with a mohawk, or do you love his long hair? You can read the full interview in this month's Loaded, out now.

Us Brits were represented by David Beckham, who brought Victoria, Brooklyn, Romeo and Cruz to watch him win a surfboard for Choice Male Athlete; Keira Knightley, who wasn't actually there but won Choice Drama Movie Actress; and Ed Westwick, whose Choice TV Villain surfboard proved that even when we're putting on US accents, Americans think that Brits are best at being villains!

Josh Holloway Joins the Cast of Stay Cool

BuzzSugar — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:31:14 -0700

Now, I was interested in the initial movie news concerning Stay Cool, when the cast included Chevy Chase, Winona Ryder, Hilary Duff, Sean Astin and Jon Cryer. But now that they're adding my beloved Sawyer (Josh Holloway, of Lost), my interest has naturally morphed into complete fascination.

The movie, described as a "knowing-your-age comedy" follows "a successful author (Mark Polish) who is forced to confront an unrequited high school crush, Scarlet Smith (Ryder), when he returns home to deliver a commencement address to graduating seniors."

Duff plays Shasta O'Neill, "a sexy high school senior who flirts with the visiting author and invites him to the prom." Holloway's character is "the former high school jock and ex-boyfriend to Ryder's Scarlet."

This collection of people is hilariously bizarre in my eyes, and I can't wait to see what comes out of this project. Will you be first in line at the theaters along with me?

Lost Episode 6: "The Other Woman"

BuzzSugar — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 09:31:01 -0800

Bottom line of this episode of Lost: Sucks to be Juliet. I still don't altogether trust her, but man, she has got it bad on that island. Anyone else find her to be really pretty in this episode, too? OK, maybe I am warming to her. Just a little.

The episode wasn't as gripping as last week's with Desmond's crazy experiences, but it was more of a fill-in-the-gaps episode, rather than a blow-your-mind episode. For a thorough recap of "The Other Woman," check out WhiplashGirlchild's post. To see some of my thoughts and to share your own (spoilers ahead), read more.

I love how they tried to mislead us in the beginning, when Juliet is explaining to a therapist that she hates to be the center of attention. My first assumption was that Juliet is one of the Oceanic Six - but no. OK, so maybe they only misled me.
There was a time when I thought the driving rain in the forest meant something significant every time it happened, like a motif or something. Now I'm pretty sure it's not that calculated.
How did Therapist Lady Harper get a message from Ben when he's being held captive by Locke?
Goodwin says he got the burn on his arm because he "was pressed up against a transformer." Like, Optimus Prime?
Dan: "So they have Miles."
Kate: "Yeah, but he's fine. They're treating him fine." You know, grenade in the mouth, he's really comfortable.
Best line of the episode: "It's very stressful being an Other, Jack." - Juliet
Claire's haircuts are always so fresh and modern.
I love Ben's allusion to the rabbit he used to trick Sawyer into thinking he'd been implanted with a pacemaker. "This didn't have a number on it, did it?" Hilarious.
Lots of private vs. public discussion. Juliet hates to be the center of attention. She doesn't know why Goodwin has a problem with being private about their relationship.

OK, this whole Charles Widmore thing. First off, who is videotaping the incident with Widmore and the "unfortunate" member of Ben's people who got caught? Also, if Ben really did "tape over" the Red Sox game that he showed Jack that one time, then this thing with Widmore happened between that time and right now.
I still want to know why, exactly, Widmore is so invested in finding the island.
Michael Emerson, who plays Ben is simply one of the best actors working on TV right now. Unbelievable.
When Juliet wonders about the children (Zack and Emma), Ben references the lists again. "Who are we to question who's on the list and who's not?"
I always suspected something weird was up between Ben and Juliet. But holy cow he's a psychopath. "You're mine!"
It's just like Jack to be all macho and smug, "He knows where to find me." Barf.
The promos for next week imply that the person on the boat is "a face you never expected to see again." By this point, many of us think it's Michael on that boat. But what if it isn't? What if it's someone else entirely? Someone we all think is dead? That would be crazy.

What did you think about this all-Juliet episode?

Lost Rundown: Episode 3, "The Economist"

BuzzSugar — Fri, 15 Feb 2008 12:30:11 -0800

Last night's episode of Lost left me reeling for many reasons. While we did get to see another member of the elusive Oceanic 6, the episode raised many new questions, and as usual, provided few answers. That said, it was definitely one of the more suspenseful episodes we've seen and had enough twists and turns to keep me entertained for an hour.

For an awesome full plot rundown of the episode, check out WhiplashGirlchild's recap. For some of my thoughts and to share your own (spoilers ahead), read more.

Right off the bat, something tells me that the bracelet Sayid stole from Naomi is going to come back to haunt us. The bracelet reads "N, I'll always be with you, R.G." I kinda wish we could just forget about the characters who have already died since we've got so many living ones to follow, but oh well.
Future Sayid is all cleaned up, preppy, and enjoying a country club lifestyle as a member of the Oceanic 6. Based on his golf partner's reaction, Sayid has created a reputation for himself as one of the survivors. Obviously we can't be fooled by his blow-dried hair and fancy threats - Sayid is still just as intense and unafraid of violence as ever, showcased by how quickly he shoots his golfing buddy dead.
New Sayid is quite the smooth talker, and isn't showing any signs of still being in love with Nadia as he gets involved with Elsa. Sad, I kind of miss when Sayid was the torturer/hopeless romantic.
Everyone seems to disagree with Locke, so why don't they just team up against him? I'm especially surprised that nobody has accidentally killed someone else in the heat of passion yet. Namely Ben - Sawyer never seemed to have a problem taking matters into his own hands before.
Dan conducts an experiment on the island, only adding to the mystery of the space/time continuum. Overall, this subplot paled in comparison to everything else that went down.

It's kind of a letdown to see Sayid fall victim to Locke's trap. Especially since Ben pretty much owns Sayid's soul from here on out.
Favorite line of the episode goes to Hurley: "I saw you snap that guys neck with the break dancing thing you do with your legs . . . I think I'll hang back here." Also, that scene from last season was awesome.
Aww, the scene where Sawyer wants Kate to stay with him on the island is pretty sweet, although it's hard to believe that Sawyer is ready to settle down with Kate and raise island babies and live happily ever after. Plus, we know Kate is going to get off the island so clearly Sawyer's powers of persuasion are going to fail eventually.

Speaking of which, does anyone else think that maybe Kate isn't one of the Oceanic 6? Seems unlikely that she wouldn't have to go to jail, considering she was on the run for years before the plane crash. I wonder if she finds another way to get off the island without being as high profile as the Oceanic 6.
Sayid and Elsa's romantic moment gets interrupted pretty quickly when they whip out their guns and start shooting each other. Sayid gets away with the gunshot, only to be stitched up by his new boss - ta da! It's Ben, who is now some kind of doctor?
So, Sayid is working for Ben, but is Ben still running things back on the island? Ben says that Sayid has to "protect his friends," but are those his friends on the island or the ones who were rescued? Who else is Ben asking Sayid to kill? And does he have any contact with the other members of the Oceanic 6? The fact that Sayid still can't figure out a way to outsmart Ben is kind of ominous for the future.

So what did you think of last night's episode? Were you totally confused? Loving all the action? Are you still pulling for Jack and Kate even though it looks like things between Kate and Sawyer get hot and heavy next week? Share your thoughts in the comments below!

Sawyer Has a Sassy Name for You, Too, Sunshine

BuzzSugar — Wed, 06 Feb 2008 06:30:00 -0800

Even if you don't have Freckles or Dimples, can't be deemed Pregnant Girl, Muttonchops or Gimpy McCrutch and think Cupcake, Sweet Cheeks and Hot Lips are kind of old, there's hope yet for you to get your very own Sawyer-approved nickname. ABC's Lost site is hosting a Sawyer Nickname Generator which asks you a few simple questions and then delivers your saucy nickname. Only drawback: there's no feature in which Sawyer himself sneers the name at you.

For a little extra fun, Lostpedia has a hilarious list of Sawyer's nicknames, along with that YouTube mash-up video of him slinging nicknames left and right. From Pippi Longstocking to Mr. Clean to Jimini Cricket, he really does have one for everybody.

Head over to the generator and then tell us what Sawyer nickname you were given! You can call me Rinse 'n' Repeat.

Lost Episode 1: "The Beginning of the End"

BuzzSugar — Fri, 01 Feb 2008 05:30:00 -0800

I'm not going to go so far as to say the Season Four premiere of Lost was worth the wait because that was a really long wait, and I don't want to jinx us somehow, but this first episode of the new season definitely delivered all the Lost-y goodness we've been craving for months on end. I don't want to spoil too much for those who haven't seen the episode, so to read my thoughts and add your own, read more

If you need an awesomely detailed full rundown of the show, check out WhiplashGirlchild's recap and of course our TeamSugar Lost Group.

Is there a better way to kick off the fourth season of Lost than with a crazy high-speed car chase complete with zooming over fences and crashing into fruit stands? I think not.
Again we get some flash-forwards - this time concentrating on Hurley's experience post-rescue - and they're crazy. Literally. However, the show begins not with Hurley's flash-forward, but with Jack's as he watches the car chase on TV. Also, this flash-forward Jack is way more with it than the last flash-forward Jack was, and he mentions "thinking about growing a beard." So, these scenes are from before the bearded, alcoholic Jack days. Perhaps it's Hurley's funeral Jack attends later?
Now we know that it wasn't just Kate and Jack who were rescued: there's Hurley and probably the three others who make up "The Oceanic Six."
That guy Hurley meets in the mental institution, Matthew Abbadon is a creepy fellow. As is always the case with Lost, a name is not just a name. According to Lostpedia, "In Hebrew, Abaddon means 'destruction.' In Job 26:6; Proverbs 15:11 it means 'place of destruction,' or 'realm of the dead.' Many biblical scholars believe Abaddon to be Satan or the antichrist."

Awww . . . Sawyer shows his little softie side again, asking Hurley if he wants to talk about Charlie. "Holler if you need me." Heh . . . I'll holler for ya, Sawyer . . . heh.
The ladies gossip corner with Claire, Rose and Sun is pretty cute; Sun and Claire joshing each other about hospital birth versus island birth, Rose making reference to Claire rewarding Charlie with sex. Bawdy!
The image of the eye is one of the many common motifs in this show. Still, I jumped a mile when that eye popped up in the window as Hurley looked into Jacob's hut. Whose eye is that? And how does the building disappear when Hurley wills it away?
Holy cow, Jack was actually going to shoot Locke in the face! Locke's hurt little expression afterward was oddly comical, though. Maybe that makes me a bad person.
At the mental institution, Hurley paints pictures of an igloo and a bundled up person next to it. Is this just Hurley veering as far away from his tropical island memories as possible - or something more?
I'm curious as to why Naomi covered for the Losties on the phone with George. But I can't say I care that much.
Aw, watching Hurley's big ol' face crumple just breaks my heart. "I'm listening to Charlie. I'm listening to my friend."
And yet again there is a division into two groups. This time it's the Jack vs. Locke round, however, with repercussions extending beyond even the rescue from the island, as Hurley later apologizes to Jack for having chosen Locke's camp.
