Hollywood PrivacyWatch: Shenae Grimes
12/11 — Saw SHENAE GRIMES at the Woods last night. I had actually met her at Happy Ending a few weeks ago. Real nice and undiva-seeming.

Ted McGinley, Pathos Personified

Move Over, Silver: Shenae Grimes Has Something to Blog About!
(UPDATE! Shenae Grimes's rep Holly Shakoor claims the blog entry attributed to her client below was written by an impostor. God, Adrianna, is there no end to your sabotage?

The '90210' Approach to Lunch: Eat Nothing, Then Throw It Away

Shenae Grimes Is The Only One Who Gets to Smile Around Here!
In most respects, 90210 lead Shenae Grimes couldn't be more different from her franchise predecessor Shannen Doherty: instead of coming across as a Midwestern fish out of water in Beverly Hills, she's already tanned, styled, and starved within an inch of her life (and it's only three weeks in).
