Haylie Duff: Lunch Date with Nick Zano
She’s been spending all of her time lately helping MTV search for the next Elle Woods for the Broadway version of Legally Blonde. But over the weekend Haylie Duff was focused on her boyfriend Nick Zano.
The “Napoleon Dynamite” babe was spotted out on a lunch at Sharkey’s restaurant yesterday, looking fine in a pink tank top layered overtop a white one teamed with some black yoga pants and sneakers.
The happy twosome looked to be truly enjoying one another’s company as they held hands while they strolled down the street. And Nick even held the door for his sweetie as she got into the car.
Miss Duff has a lot to look forward to in the upcoming months, with plenty of projects in the pipeline, including “Dead End,” “Doesn’t Texas Ever End,” and “Slightly Single in LA.”
Haylie Duff: Nail Mission
Haylie Duff: Nail Mission
Sometimes one nail salon just isn’t enough. And Haylie Duff was bound and determined to get her nails done just the way she likes them.
The “Napoleon Dynamite” actress was spotted in Ventura, California yesterday visiting two different nail salons in search of the perfect set. And she looked cute in a black tank top with a big blue scarf, and a pair of designer jeans.
Haylie has been keeping herself extra busy lately, working on both a new reality series (Legally Blonde the Musical: The Search For Elle Woods in which she plays host as well as producer) and a Spike TV horror flick “Backwoods.”
She says the “Elle Woods” gig is one that is close to her heart. “I was approached to mentor the girls and serve as the host. When I found out what the show was about I realized it hit so close to home. I had done a Broadway show. That’s when I decided I wanted to be an executive producer.”
Of the “Backwoods” film, Duff told press she was attracted to the challenges of playing her character. “I like to find characters that push me and challenge me. This character was a real survivor. She is the kind of person who, when she is pushed, will fight back.”
Jon Heder and His Wife Have a Girl
Napoleon Dynamite star Jon Heder and his wife, Kirsten, have welcomed their first child, his rep tells PEOPLE.
The baby girl, Evan Jane Heder, is “safe and sound and healthy,” says the rep, who did not reveal the baby’s date of birth.
In March, at the Los Angeles premiere of Heder’s comedy Blades of Glory, he told reporters that his wife, who was with him at the event, was due any second.
Heder, 29, met Kirsten when they were both students at Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah. They announced in September that they were expecting their first child.
Heder, who is from Salem, Ore., burst onto the scene playing the memorable oddball Napoleon Dynamite in the 2004 film. He also starred in Just Like Heaven, Bench Warmers and School for Scoundrels.
