It's Bonnie Somerville, one of the hot stars of ABC's Cashmere Mafia, which starts in November. You might remember her as Ross' girlfriend Mona, from Friends, or Laura Murphy from the last season of NYPD Blue.
She stars with Lucy Liu, Frances O'Connor and Miranda Otto as one of four powerful, stylish New York women in the show that comes from Sex and the City's Darren Starr and looks an awful lot like a drama version of that show. It even has the same costume designer, Patricia Field. She sure knows how to dress a pretty gal.
But there's hardly any cashmere in the pilot, a couple of coats, and Somerville's gray sweater, so I told the cast and producers that I was extremely disappointed.
"Which scene did you notice cashmere?" Somerville asked.
On you, of course, I replied.
Obviously impressed with my keen fashion sense (one of the producers asked me which one of the women's outfits I wanted, which I thought was a little mean), Bonnie blurted out: "Will you marry me? You'd probably buy me cashmere."
Actually, on my salary, she would be buying me cashmere.
Besides, I'm still holding out for Jennifer Garner.
Here she is looking for a job to keep that sleazy Ben Affleck in poker chips. Once she realizes he's no good for her, I'd be happy to take her in, and her darling daughter, Violet, to raise her as my own.
And you shouldn't be surprised I know so much about fashion. My fellow critics voted me "Best Groomed."
