Kristen Bell Joins HRC Campaign

Wednesday, March 28th, 2012

Add Kristen Bell to the ever-growing list of celebrities and politicians speaking out in favor of marriage equality.

The “House of Lies” actress is the latest to film a video ad for the Human Rights Campaign’s (HRC) Americans for Marriage Equality effort. “It breaks my heart to know that millions of gay Americans still can’t marry the one they love, and I can,” Bell, who will next be seen opposite Bradley Cooper in this summer’s “Outrun,” says in the new clip. “That makes no sense.”

Bell’s efforts earned the praise of HRC President Joe Solmonese. “Every day committed and loving gay and lesbian couples face the unfair reality that marriage is out of the question for them,” he said in an email statement. “Kristen Bell, like a majority of Americans, recognizes the injustice of this discrimination, and the harm it inflicts on families across the country.”

This isn’t the first time the 31-year-old actress has spoken out in favor of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) rights. Earlier this month, she told The Advocate that she and fiance Dax Shepard would hold off on tying the knot until until same-sex marriage is legal throughout the United States. “The reason we’re not rushing to get married is because I don’t feel appropriate taking advantage of a right that’s denied to my best friends,” said Bell, who names openly gay “Star Trek” actor Zachary Quinto as a confidante. “Dax and I have talked about it a lot, and this issue is very important to both of us. We’re just standing up for what we believe in.”

Kristen Bell Reveals the Moment That Made Her Feel “Insignificant”

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

In Big Miracle, Kristen Bell plays a young but driven reporter sent to cover a major story unfolding in the Alaskan wilderness. When we recently met with Kristen in LA to talk about the movie, which filmed on location just outside of Anchorage, she told us she was up for the challenges the role presented. Not only did she grow up in Detroit, where the Winters are notoriously harsh, but as an actress, she said she could relate to her character’s ambition as well as her career setbacks. Kristen also talked about what it was like to be caught in an onscreen love triangle between Drew Barrymore and her longtime friend John Krasinski, and a magical moment during the shoot that left her feeling “insignificant.”

“Self” Magazine Behind-the-Scenes Video

Tuesday, January 31st, 2012

Cover girl Kristen Bell reclaims the small screen this month in Showtime’s new series, House of Lies. Bell stars in the hit comedy as Jeannie Van Der Hooven, the whip-smart management consultant teamed up with the brazen and charming Marty Kaan, played by Don Cheadle. We loved Bell as a teen sleuth on her hit show Veronica Mars (and as the sly narrator on Gossip Girl) so naturally we were thrilled at her return to our DVR queue.

Bell was so fun to have on set–between listening to Glee tracks, the star dished on everything from her long-time vegetarianism to her experimentation with 80′s hairstyles. Check out the behind-the-scenes cover shoot video below, then grab our February issue and see why we fell for Bell.
