America loves celebrities. We love to build them up and watch them fall. And when celebrities fall, the entourages flee leaving no one to give the celebrity a reality check. In the one-hour BIO special 'Celebrity Life Coach' premiering Wednesday, December 1 at 10PM ET/PT, we follow Lauren Zander, 'Life Coach' to the stars, as she takes on a new celebrity client in need of her coaching. For the first time in their lives, the celebrity will be faced with Lauren and her catch phrase: 'Maybe it's you!'. We watch as Lauren coaches the celebrity with her 'take no prisoners' approach, by exploring their past and cleaning up the mess they've left behind; their present which requires tackling all of their current issues and their future as they work towards formulating a clear plan in order to achieve their goals. Lauren's unique method of personal examination, honesty, and personal integrity will make them achieve visible success. This is not therapy; this is a true makeover of a person's life.

InDepth InterView: Kathleen Turner
by Robert Diamond - Sep 17, 2010

Today we are talking to the heart-stopping bombshell of BODY HEAT and PEGGY SUE GOT MARRIED, the satirical queen of comedy in SERIAL MOM, the Mother of mass suicide in THE VIRGIN SUICIDES and the unforgettable dog-trainer in MARLEY & ME, as well as the greatest Martha since Uta Hagan in the Edward Albee's ferocious work of staggering genius, WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF; star of stages and screens all over the world, the one and only Kathleen Turner. Talking theatre (her new play HIGH), film (past and future, including a few in the can such as one co-starring Jason Ritter), television (she plays David Duchovney's confidant on CALIFORNICATION), and her erudite insights on the cultural significance of the basic arts - like theatre - in a technology-drenched world. Ms. Turner also talks about working with Francis Ford Coppola, John Waters, Edward Albee, Michael Douglas, William Hurt, James Woods, Kirsten Dunst, Sofia Coppola, Jason Ritter, Emily Deschanel and a host of other huge Hollywood and/or Broadway heavyweights. Her unmistakable voice and spirit paw and purr through every word she selects, she is the cat's pajamas - or should I say, cat's negligee.
