Ian Somerhalder and Maggie Grace, who played incestuous stepbrother and sister Boone and Shannon on “Lost,” are hooking up in real life, according to Us Weekly.
 File this one under “life imitating slightly incestuous art.” Before Lost’s Ian Somerhalder and Maggie Grace were killed off by the island of scary cloud monsters and disproportionately good-looking people, their characters, Boone and Shannon, hooked up in a flashback sequence (skeeving the rest of us out since they were playing stepsiblings). Now the couple are quietly dating offscreen!
“They stay out of the limelight,” a source tells Us, “but they spend a lot of time hanging out and working out together at Gold’s Gym [in Venice Beach, California.]” The pair will “kiss and hold hands when they come and go from the gym. You can tell they’re a couple.”
Obviously, there’s nothing wrong with this since they’re (so far as I know) unrelated in real life. But it does strike me as a tad creepy.

Cynthia Watros, who plays Libby on ABC’s hit “Lost,” is starring in a pilot for another show. Not surprisingly, this is leading to speculation that her “Lost” character will be killed off. E! Online’s Gina Serpe reports,
Try as the Lost writers might to keep a lid on series-shifting spoilers, when one of its stars is tapped to join another TV show, it would seem that that person’s fate on the island is pretty much sealed.
[...]
According to the Hollywood Reporter, Cynthia Watros, who plays Hurley’s love interest, Libby, has been cast in a CBS comedy pilot, calling into severe question her chances of making it out of Lost’s second season alive. Watros has signed on to star opposite Love Monkey’s Tom Cavanagh in the sitcom My Ex-Life, centering on a divorced couple turned best buds who are sharing custody of their children. The show is aiming for a slot on CBS’ fall schedule, which will be announced next month.
In what appears to be attempt to minimize revealing Lost plot points, the Reporter notes that Watros has committed to be a guest star and not a regular on the show. However, with her character being one of the two divorced parents in My Ex-Life, it seems that the guest star line is just a smoke screen.
Per usual, Lost producers aren’t talking. They’ve already killed one regular this season–Shannon (Maggie Grace) was mistakenly gunned down by Ana-Lucia (Michelle Rodriguez)–but with tension mounting between the so-called Lostaways and the Others, it would be surprising if there wasn’t at least one more grave to be dug on the island.
Watros is one of three full-time cast members to have joined Lost this season, along with Rodriguez and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (Mr. Eko). The three were among the “Tailies,” those who were in the rear of the plane and survived on the other side of the island.
Of course, “Lost” is an ensemble show. Several characters, notably middle aged black woman Rose, have been absent from several episodes in a row. Given the success rate of pilots, there’s no real reason to kill Libby unless the show takes off.
Not that it would much matter. Hers is perhaps the least interesting of the recurring characters on the show. And, while pretty enough, easily the least hot of the female stars.
   
“Lost” hearthrob Josh Holloway is apparently not all that different than the character he plays, according to an interview with the New York Post:
Josh Holloway, who’s in ABC’s hit “Lost,” admits he considered dumping his fiancée when his star began to rise. “There’s a Hugh Hefner that lives in all men,” happily married Holloway tells Men’s Health. “So when ‘Lost’ took off, part of me thought, ‘Do I cut and run?’ I still like to look around, but respectfully and with no intentions. ‘Married, not buried,’ I always say.” Still, he can’t help fantasize about bachelorhood. “If I were single?” Holloway muses. “Damn, I’d have one girl doing my laundry, one shaving me, one bringing me a cocktail and another one coming out of my tent all hung over.”
Todd thinks he might get his wish sooner rather than later. Minus half his loot, I would add.
  
Todd provides several photos of Holloway and his wife, (longtime love, Yessica) which provokes several comments about the wife’s skill set. I’ve shamelessly stolen a representative one, thumbnailed leftmost above. I’ve added two others found on the Web.
As to whether Holloway is a pig, an aspersion cast by several, I would note that 1) he is a man and 2) he is a rich, famous former model stuck in Hawaii for weeks at a time with Evangeline Lilly, Emilie de Ravin, Michelle Rodriguez, and, until recently, Maggie Grace. If he’s not cheating on Yessica now, he never will.
  
Apropos of nothing in particular, I nonetheless find it amusing that Holloway’s IMDB profile informs, “His first job was picking up dead chickens at a farm.”
CPG has proclaimed that former “Lost” cast member and “Fog” star “Maggie Grace is hot.”
Maggie Grace probably shouldn’t have left âLostâ to star in “The Fog”. After all, everyone’s seen “Lost”, but I have yet to watch anyone who will admit to having seen the Godawful “The Fog” remake. Anyways, here’s Maggie in a slinky red dress at some celebrity show/auction/charity whatever. Doesn’t she just look ravishing in red?
He provides several photos of Grace in said red dress and she is certainly quite attractive. The one below, however, is the closest that I can get to determining whether she is “hot.”
I decided that further research into the issue was required.
Based on this preliminary assessment, I would have to concur. I do not considered this research to be concluded, however.
