In the wake of Fringe's shocking third season finale "The Day We Died," a new featurette sees the cast teasing what to expect from season four. We're not sure if Joshua Jackson should be all smiles, considering the reality-bending twists  Fringe  writers will have to come up with to get Peter Bishop back on the show for the fourth season due out this Fall.  Not only that, but he'll have to watch his back now that Lincoln Lee (Seth Gabel) has officially been promoted to series regular. It's been only a few weeks since the shocking events of Fringe 's third season finale "The Day We Died," which saw Jackson's Peter Bishop suddenly fading out of existence after using the machine to tear holes between universes and finally bridge the gap in the parallel universe war (isn't this show great?), but already cast and crew are hard at work at plotting out season four. And don't you worry folks, showrunners Roberto Orci and Alex Kurtzman have as...

Chaz Bono engaged Chaz Bono Engaged, Chaz Bono marry ‘within a year. The star of 42 years old – born of a woman named Chastity and began gender reassignment surgery about three years ago – said he and Jennifer Elia long-term partners have devoted much time and are hoping to marry soon. Chaz said: “We have actually been engaged for two years and – somehow had to put things on hold a bit. “I would say within a year, definitely. Do not make excuses, but we went through a lot. I transition. She went to graduate school. So you know, we were making the movie. And I wrote the book. “It was a lot. Now I feel like once this is over, we sit down and plan a wedding.” The couple can marry legally because Chaz is officially regarded as a man, but he insists he would not have felt comfortable with a civil partnership when briefly legalized in California in 2008. Asked if he considered a civil partnership, Chaz – whose parents are the singer Cher and her late former husband Sonny Bono – told televisi...

Maria Shriver talks At times, the marriage of Arnold Schwarzenegger and Maria Shriver looked like a fairy tale come true. But the public record is replete with problems that would strain any union, and recent glimpses into their lives suggested something amiss with a couple who often waxed publicly about their love for one another. Since his term as California governor ended in early January, Schwarzenegger has hopscotched around the world, his wife nowhere in sight. Shriver posted three Twitter updates on April 26, their 25th wedding anniversary, without mentioning the milestone. On Monday, they announced they were separating. "After a great deal of thought, reflection, discussion, and prayer, we came to this decision together," they said in a brief statement that could signal a private breakup rather than a public court battle. If Schwarzenegger, 63, appeared confident about the future since exiting politics, cutting movie deals and fashioning himself as a global spokesman ...

Navy chaplains and same-sex unions Navy chaplains will be trained about their ability to perform same-sex civil marriage ceremonies under new guidance that would take effect should the Defense Department move to recognize openly gay military service. Navy officials said Monday that they updated the training after questions came up about civil ceremonies for gay couples. Military training to apply the new law allowing gays to serve openly began early this year and is expected to be complete by midsummer. In earlier training guidelines issued by the Defense Department and the military services, same-sex marriage ceremonies were not mentioned, and therefore not explicitly prohibited. Pentagon spokeswoman Eileen Lainez said Monday that the federal Defense of Marriage Act does not restrict the types of ceremonies a chaplain may perform in a chapel on a military base. The military would not compel chaplains to perform a same-sex marriage if it would be against their religious beliefs. The Pe...
