Jane Krakowski Manages Sweet Tooth

May 28th, 2009 / Author: Valerie Nome

Jane Krakowski calls ice cream “one of my favorite desserts” during Breyers Smooth and Dreamy Webisode event held at Midtown Loft and Terrace in NYC.

Although  the 30 Rock star, 40, confesses she doesn’t eat it very often, she abides by the dieting motto “everything within reason.”

“Ice cream is one of my favorite things,” she gushes. “I always think you can tell a great ice cream by their vanilla. It’s the test of all tests. But my favorite flavor probably is chocolate chip mint. It’s so delicious. And Breyers, I’ve always loved their chocolate chip mint ice cream because they don’t put green in it. It’s actually natural – it’s white. It’s the way it’s meant to be.”

As waiters sail around offering up Atlanta Burning Delight desserts decked out with  “peaches on the bottom, vanilla ice cream, raspberry topping and whipped cream,” Jane’s Webisodes air. She’s placed in iconic roles in Gone With The Wind and King Kong.

“I’ve never done anything that was this technically advanced in the sense that I can actually be acting with Clark Gable and it’s seamless,” the Tony winner tells me. “I was absolutely blown away by the advancements in the green screen technology and what they can do these days. Our director of photography lit it with that old Hollywood studio lighting that nobody does these days. It was one of those experiences that I don’t know where else aside from this Webisode you could have.”

Ooh, check out that sundae bar! We’re talking Smooth and Dreamy Rocky Road, Strawberry Cheese Cake, Chocolate Chocolate Chip and Creamy Vanilla pairs with marshmallows, strawberries, fudge, nuts and raspberries. Delish!

Gift bag time: I pick up a Breyers ice cream scoop (it’s awesome!), Breyers ice cream coupon, red heart-shaped bowl, matching red spoon, Smooth and Dreamy Breyers notes, Gone With The Wind DVD and The King Kong Collection DVD. Woo-hoo!

Is it Time for 30 Barack?

May 14th, 2009

Ask most TV actors who they’d love to have do a cameo on their show and you’ll hear a who’s who of A-list names like Brad Pitt, Kate Winslet or Russell Crowe, but all those superstars pale in comparison to the name on the top of 30 Rock star Jane Krakowski’s list.

"I keep saying we’ve just got to get [Barack] Obama," she reveals to Eonline.com. "We’ve had Steve Martin. We’ve had Oprah. We’ve had Jerry Seinfeld. We’ve had all these great musical greats. Let’s just go for the big guns now."

And those aren’t the only huge names that have popped in for a guest spot. Just this season alone, Jennifer Aniston made a memorable appearance as Tina Fey’s possibly insane party-girl pal, and Salma Hayek had a recurring role as Alec Baldwin’s love interest.

As for landing Barack, Jane thinks it might be easier than people imagine. "I always say, ‘He was on The Tonight Show, so he’s part of the NBC family,’" she laughs. "He might want to just come by."

Stars Mix and Mingle For Conde Nast Traveler

October 28th, 2008 / Author: Valerie Nome

Stars step out for Conde Nast Traveler Readers’ Choice Awards, which take place at the New York Public Library.

As tunes including Justin Timberlake’s Lovestoned and Madonna’s Holiday spin, Jane Krakowski tells me she hopes Oprah’s appearance on 30 Rock cements the show’s place on the talk show icon’s Favorite Things List. “We hope to get the Oprah Seal of Approval,” Jane tells me. “I don’t know where we could go from there!”    

Ouch, what happened to her 30 Rock costar Katrina Bowden’s eye? The white part is – eughh – blood red.

“I was eating granola actually, and a piece of it went down the wrong tube,” Kat admits. “You know when you get that coughing attack? I busted a blood vessel in my eye a few days ago.”

That said, “I love trail mix, granola, nuts and dried fruit.”

Surprise, surprise, it’s Aubrey O’Day! She greets me with a fervent wave. “She’s my homegirl,” Aubrey tells her rep. I tell her my whole office thinks she’s going to be a big star. “I hope that I’m going to be a big star,” Aubrey laughs. “I hope that your office is right.”

Gossip Girl dad Matthew Settle reveals he’s going to be a daddy on March 10 – that’s my birthday! And Carrie Underwood and Sharon Stone’s, too. What most excites him about fatherhood? “Trying to fix all the problems in my life,” he tells me. “Those are the classic things that parents do wrong! Seeing if I can just be supportive. Applying the wisdom I’m learning on Gossip Girl.”

Real Housewives of New York star Bethenny Frankel admits she’s dating “manyone” now. How does she juggle multiple men? “Don’t get in textual relationships,” she tells me. “No textual relationships. You’re always left holding the bag. It’s like when do I text back? It’s lack of communication. You have to let them know you’re not into textual relationships right away.”

Mario Cantone, who doesn’t have scoop on the Sex and the City sequel, loves to vacation in Ravello, Italy. “It’s beautiful,” he says. His tastes weren’t always so chi-chi. “My first car was a horrible, cinnamon colored Malibu. 1970. It was horrifying. My mother bought it. I just used it all the time.”

Christy Carlson Romano remembers me from Equus opening night. Whoa! Christy’s starring in Avenue Q now, which is next to All My Sons, featuring the one, the only Katie Holmes. Any tips? Sleep! “She’s exhausted,” Christy says of her streetside encounter with the star. “She looked like she was tired, but she also looked like she was so excited and so set to be doing this.”

Although Christy thinks Daniel did a “great job” in Equus, she’d like to see Zac Efron give it a go. “I think Zac could totally do it. Broadway’s hard, but it’s just as hard as doing a 12-hour workday that doesn’t stop because you’re a celebrity and your life is a 24-hour show. I think Zac Efron has been working his butt off with High School Musical, and he’s been performing all over the country. They’re good kids, those guys.”
