Morning Brew – Monday, Feb. 20: Amy Smart comes onto Emmy Rossum on “Shameless,” more lesbians in prison and in uniform!
Happy Presidents’ Day!
On last night’s episode of Shameless, Amy Smart’s character Jasmine finally told Fiona (Emmy Rossum) how she felt about her. She kissed her with some passion (although it’s not the first time they’ve kissed!) and admitted her feelings which, unfortunately, weren’t shared. Later they got in a fight and I realized shipping them would amount to nothing. Fiona and Steve are pretty much meant to be.
Guess who is getting buff with Bob Harper of The Biggest Loser?
I just took Ellen & Portia thru their 1st #crossfit #WOD. They did a great job & they KILLED it!!! #fb

And they say vegans are weak!
Actress Sunny Bansemer wrote on her website she’ll be joining the cast of Verbotene Liebe as “tough policewoman Bianca Vogel, who falls head over heels for the cute Rebecca.” Another hot cop? I don’t know if I can take it! (Yes I can!) Thanks for the tip Sophie!
There also seems to be a lesbian storyline happening on the Spanish series La Fuga. AfterEllen.com reader Rogue tells us that lesbian inmate Inés (Marta Gutiérrez-Abad) falls for Rebeca (Nikol Kollars), who was initially sent to romance her to catch her in a gay act and get her expelled. Lesbian Canarias knows all about it and has video clips, too!
What’s with lesbians named Rebecca?
Selena Gomez tweeted that Zooey Deschanel was her girl crush and Zooey seems to be flattered.
I’m honored! RT @selenagomez: My current girl crush. Well I’ve never had one before so she’s my 1st #Twirly#Newgirl ! instagr.am/p/HNi5d-xu_j/

If anyone could fall for a girl, it’s Selena. How many gay girls look like her current boyfriend, Justin Bieber? Too many to count.
Speaking of girl crushes, writer Jill Soloway has one on director Elena Mann, as she writes in the intro to their interview on The Rumpus. The two collaborated on part of Michelle Tea’s Valencia movie, too!
Lindsay Lohan is going to host Saturday Night Live again. So we’re all watching this Saturday then?
Someone commented on this new video for The Sounds, writing “Maja is sex on legs!” I wholeheartedly agree.
Exclusive: Heather Hogan watches Nickelodeon. And then she told me Wanda Sykes leant her voice to an animated special called Bubble Guppies. Wanda voices the witch who turns some kids’ puppy into a frog. Obviously they deserved it.
VH1 is looking for a femme who is also Latina or African-American. They say it’s for a “hit reality show” based in New York City and you must “like sports … likes wearing high heels and dressing up, and who is also making something of their life!” What the hell show is this?
Emmerdale actress Charlie Hardwick says she wants her character, Val, to have a one-night stand with a woman.
That’d definitely put the cat amongst the pigeons! And knowing Val, she’d tell Pollard it’s not really cheating if it’s with a woman! I think Val would go for anyone who flashed her the eye.
Casual winkers need to be careful around that one!
