In Touch Weekly Names 'Lost' Star TV's Top 'Hunk'
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Josh Holloway, who plays con man Sawyer on the hit ABC series "Lost," has been named the "hottest hunk" on television by In Touch Weekly.
The magazine, in an issue on newsstands Friday, says the 36-year-old actor is the best of today's small-screen studs, even surpassing castmate Matthew Fox. Fox, who plays Jack on the Emmy-winning drama series, landed ninth on the top-10 list.
Of Holloway, "Lost" co-star Evangeline Lilly is quoted saying, "He's the guy who opens doors, carries the bags for woman and makes sure they feel protected. It's a very endearing quality."
Holloway is no bachelor, though. He's been married to Yessica Kumula since 2004. Fox, 39, has two children with his wife of 14 years, Margherita Ronchi.
Second on the list is John Stamos of ABC's "Jake in Progress." The 42-year-old actor, who previously starred on "Full House," was divorced from Rebecca Romijn last year.
In Touch says Stamos is still a hunk because he "has been twinkling those green eyes at us for 20 years."
Also on the list: Jared Padalecki from "Supernatural," David Boreanaz ("Bones"), Wentworth Miller ("Prison Break"), Eddie Cibrian ("Invasion"), Patrick Dempsey ("Grey's Anatomy"), Shemar Moore ("Criminal Minds") and Tom Welling ("Smallville").
TMZ's 'Lost' Diary: War is Brewing
It's 'Lost' time again and I have no problem admitting that it is the highpoint of my week. I'm gathered at my friend Ari's house with the usual crew: Lauren, Matt, and Jaimee (back from a little hiatus). Lauren has made us all turn off our cell phones and has even gone so far as to confiscate Jaimee's. We don't call her the "Lost Nazi" for no reason.
On with the show...
9:01 - It's Jack flashback time. So, what are the odds Jack fixes the Italian guy? We've got three votes for death, one for cure. I am going for death.
9:03 - Hey remember last week when I said Michael would go crazy with the guns? Yeah it's happening. Not a tough prediction.
'Lost' Actress Cops Plea
Cynthia Watros, who plays castaway Libby on the ABC hit series, 'Lost,' pleaded guilty to drunken driving Thursday. Her driver's license was suspended for 90 days, she was fined $370 and ordered to undergo an "alcohol assessment".
"I'm sorry," Watros told the court after entering her plea.

District Judge James Dannenberg also ordered Watros to submit to 14 hours of counseling. "This is no fun, but you know how much worse it could have been. Get on with your life, and I wish you luck," the judge told Watros.
The night she was busted, Watros' blood alcohol level was just over .10. The legal limit in Hawaii is .08.
Following her court appearance, the star spoke to reporters. "I'm extremely grateful to the people of Hawaii for their love and support," she said. "Thank you."

Fellow 'Lost' star Michelle Rodriguez was arrested for drunk driving in Honolulu the same night Watros was busted. Unlike Watros, Rodriguez pleaded not guilty and is scheduled to stand trial on March 30.
'Lost' is Found on Top
The characters on "Lost" have been through incredible trauma: they're scared and dirty and the actors who play them are Entertainment Weekly's Entertainer of the Year.
A painful chest-waxing in "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" helps Steve Carell (kuh-REHL') land the magazine's number-two spot.
Naomi Watts has been in movie after movie but her performance in "King Kong" gives her the number-three slot.
Also on Entertainment Weekly's list of top entertainers of the year: Kanye (KAHN'-yay) West, Felicity Huffman, George Clooney, Vince Vaughn, Gwen Stefani, Harry Potter and Terrence Howard.
Michelle Rodriguez Cries Freedom
By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
Michelle Rodriguez, a star on ABC's "Lost," complained after her arrest for drunken driving earlier this month that police were taking away her freedom.
Officers pulled Rodriguez over early on Dec. 1 after spotting her black Mercedes allegedly weaving down Pali Highway in the Honolulu-bound lanes from Kailua.
Another "Lost" star, Cynthia Watros, was arrested 15 minutes later on the same road when police saw her car also moving erratically.
Both allegedly failed sobriety tests. Rodriguez had a blood alcohol level of 0.145, nearly twice the legal limit of 0.08, according to documents obtained by KITV-TV.
KITV quoted court and police documents that said Rodriguez was "very argumentative" and kept interrupting the officer who was explaining drunk driving sanctions to her.
"I don't (expletive) belong here! Why don't you just put a gun to my head and shoot me! You've already taken my freedom! You might as well take my life too!" she said, KITV reported Friday.
The officer who took Rodriguez in a police car to the Kailua substation quoted her as saying "Just take my car and I'll walk all the way to the North Shore but don't leave me in the back of this car poppie."
Rodriguez' lawyer declined comment.
The actress plays police officer Ana Lucia on the hit ABC drama series filmed in Hawaii.
