The Will & Grace alum, 45, stars in Broadway's Act of God on May 28 Is the hectic Broadway schedule tiring? Doing this particular show is quite exhausting, because it's basically a one-man show and a 90-min. monologue. You have to project. A lot of energy is needed. What do you like about acting onstage as opposed to TV or films? I enjoy the immediacy of the audience's reaction—they're not afraid to tell you when you're funny and when you're not funny. You break down the fourth wall. But I'm thinking of building a fifth wall. George Burns and Morgan Freeman have played God too. Does that add any pressure? As great as those guys were at playing God, neither of them grew up a repressed Irish Catholic! What are…

ALL THE NEWS & BUZZ FROM HOLLYWOOD PRINCE'S ESTATE THE BATTLE BEGINS WHEN HE DIED ON April 21 Prince left behind multiple properties (including his 55,000-sq.-ft. compound Paisley Park), a vast music catalog as well as a vault of unreleased music—and one burning question: Why didn't a superstar with so much wealth have a will? A judge in Chaska, Minn., who presided over a hearing regarding the future of Prince's reportedly $250 million estate, says that might not be the case. "The court is not finding that there is no will," said Judge Kevin W. Eide, "but that no will has yet been found." Since the discovery of Prince's lifeless body inside an elevator at Paisley Park, his sister Tyka Nelson asked the court to appoint Bremer Trust, which has…

On Oct. 31, 2006, actress Adrienne Shelly was doing what made her happiest: balancing motherhood with work. While frosting cupcakes for a Halloween party she and her husband, Andy Ostroy, hosted for their 2-year-old daughter Sophie, she spoke by phone to Michael Roiff, who produced Waitress, the indie film she wrote, directed and starred in, hoping it would be accepted at the Sundance Film Festival. "Before she hung up, she said, 'Let's talk tomorrow,' " says Roiff. They would never speak again. On Nov. 1, Ostroy found Shelly, 40, hanging from a shower rod in the Manhattan apartment she used as an office. At first police believed her death was a suicide, which Ostroy, 56, says was "not even in the realm of possibility. She was so happy." Days later…

CANINE BURN VICTIM He's a 4-Legged Firefighter MEET HANAHAN, S.C., fire department's newest recruit: Jake the dog! The 13-month-old pit bull has been named an honorary firefighter in the small southern city, an almost inconceivable plot twist considering he was severely burned as a puppy just one year ago (inset, bottom left). "Seventy-five percent of his body had second- or third-degree burns," says firefighter William Lindler, 42, who rescued Jake from a burning shed last April. The canine's original owners couldn't afford his medical care—including antibiotics, daily medicated baths and laser skin treatments—and decided to give him up. So Lindler, a father of two with a rottweiler, Bella, at home, decided to adopt him: "My wife, April, said, 'He was always meant to be yours.' " Now, a year later,…

'I'm still in shock. Prince was a true musical icon and genius' Ryan Ann via people.com For May 9, 2016 Prince Prince was a monumental figure in the history of music. Because of him many young singer-songwriters were inspired to pursue their dream to be in the music business. Robert Rath via e-mail I'm at a loss for words—I feel empty inside. RIP. Maggie via people.com As a young girl I went to see Prince on his Purple Rain tour in November 1984. I'll never forget the hush of the audience when "Let's Go Crazy" started the show. Thirty-two years and many concerts later, it remains the most exciting experience of my entire life. Sandy Plenski Novato, Calif. Lara Logan Thank you for including the article about Lara Logan in…

Diane Guerrero still has nightmares about the day she came home from school to find her parents gone. "Sometimes I'll wake up screaming," she says. On that awful afternoon 15 years ago, she ran through the house frantically calling for her "Mami" and "Papi." They had been arrested, it turned out, and would soon be deported from Boston back to their native Colombia. Now the Orange Is the New Black and Jane the Virgin actress, 29, has documented that loss and the anguish that followed in a memoir, In the Country We Love: My Family Divided. "My family is broken," she says. "And it shouldn't have to be." Guerrero's mother, Maria, and father, Hector, came to the U.S. on visitor visas in 1981. Maria convinced Hector that they and Maria's…

MAY 27 X-MEN: APOCALYPSE STARRING JENNIFER LAWRENCE, MICHAEL FASSBENDER Apocalypse is an action-packed final chapter for some of the Marvel-ous mutants.

Last time I cringed My really bad guilty pleasure is The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and I cringed the other night. They can act like they never graduated from high school! Last recurring dream I always have dreams that I'm in my apartment and I find these extra rooms that I didn't know were there. That and being underwater. But I always come to the surface. Last irrational fear I have an irrational fear of cockroaches. But we were recently going to work during this storm in Scotland—the trucks were being blown across the road, and I was terrified. I think that's a rational fear, though. Last moment of bliss I had some time off, so I went to Venice and then to Paris. I ate everything I wanted…
