Minnelli plays beauty queen on TV series
BURBANK, Calif. - Liza Minnelli, fresh off her cameo appearance in the film “The OH in Ohio” and her recurring role in “Arrested Development,” will guest-star in an upcoming episode of “Law & Order: Criminal Intent.”

Minnelli, 59, will play a former beauty queen whose daughter, an aspiring beauty queen, was found murdered on Halloween night, said a spokeswoman for Wolf Films, which produces the NBC show.

The episode, called “Masquerade,” is filming now and will air in November, Golum said Thursday.

Spokane names theater in honor of Crosby

SPOKANE, Wash. - Bing Crosby is getting a theater named after him in the city where he first took up music.

Mitch Silver, owner of the Metropolitan Performing Arts Center, has announced that it will be renamed the Bing Crosby Theater on the suggestion of Eastern Washington University journalism professor Bill Stimson.

Silver told The Spokesman-Review the late crooner's widow, Kathryn Crosby, has offered to come to Spokane for a benefit Dec. 8 to raise money for the sign changes and a lobby display.

Reality star temporarily freed from monitor

HONOLULU - TV reality star Duane “Dog” Chapman, out on bail while international criminal charges are pending, had his electronic monitoring ankle bracelet removed for a trip to New York.

A judge agreed Thursday to temporarily free Chapman, the star of “Dog The Bounty Hunter,” of the ankle bracelet so he could attend previously scheduled appearances on the East Coast, said his attorney, Brook Hart.

“As a practical matter, traveling around with an ankle bracelet is not a very efficient practice,” Hart said.

Presley fan club revives enthusiasm for King

TUPELO, Miss. - Fifty years after the “King of Rock ‘n' Roll” played at a fair in his birthplace, the long-defunct Tupelo Elvis Presley Fan Club has been revived.

Presley was born Jan. 8, 1935, in a small, shotgun-style house in the northeast Mississippi city of Tupelo. He died Aug. 16, 1977, about 100 miles away in Memphis, Tenn.

About 20 people showed up earlier this week at the chapel on the birthplace grounds to get the club going. Jane Riley, who helped organize the Elvis Presley Festival in Tupelo in June, said about 400 fans from around the world have signed up as members.

“It's just amazing the common denominator that Elvis Presley and his life and his music provides,” Riley said.
