Laverne Cox is spilling what it takes to be her love interest on screen… and off!
We sat down with the Doubt star on Wednesday morning to get the inside scoop on what's coming up next romantically for her latest character, high-powered transgender lawyer Cameron Wirth, and what it takes to woo her Cox in her personal life.
"I think you have to find the right person," the 32-year-old actress dished exclusively to Et. "In real life, my schedule is insane and so having someone who gets what I do is really, really important."

"The reality of my dating life as a trans woman is really reflected in what Cameron has to do go through," she continued. "I don’t want to give too much away, but his really hot dude named Peter Garrett, played by Ben Lawson, starts to peruse pursue [Cameron] and it's a little...

Hollywood week continued, giving us all the highs and lows we’ve come to expect this season of ‘American Idol’. But you might be surprised to learn which singers were sent home!
Now that Hollywood week has (finally) come to an end, will we be seeing the first signs of a potential female winner on American Idol after a six year absence? The way they’re framing the season so far, it looks like they’re hoping for that to happen!
As the Feb. 14 episode began, we were greeted with a video reminding us that a girl hasn’t won the show in six years. Even though Nicki Minaj and Keith Urban basically forced down our throats that this has been the best set of girls ever on the show, I’d like to see what they’d say if Kelly Clarkson or Carrie Underwood walked in the room!
Now to the performances…...

The end of American Idol's 12th Hollywood Week is upon us, as the girls battle it out during solo rounds. At the end of the day, 20 will be left standing to join this season's top male contestants.
Let's find out who will be moving on to Las Vegas, shall we?
Each female singer will have the option of choosing a song from the Idol song list or singing an original number for her solo audition. This is a new twist for this stage of the competition, one which doesn't seem to have been offered to the guys last week.
Angela Miller chooses option two and decides to sing an original song for the judges. She plays piano with Idol musicians backing her and it gives me chills it's so good. Angela just set the bar so incredibly high it's going to be hard for the other girls to compete with her.

Thursday night's (Feb. 14) episode of "American Idol" starts by asking if a girl can win. We don't actually think a girl can win anymore, honestly. But you don't necessarily have to win the whole thing to have success.
It's the final day of Hollywood Week. 47 women will be whittled down to 20 (and presumably, we'll see the 28 men cut down to 20 as well).
Here are the highlights:
Group One:
Angela Miller takes a risk by performing an original song. Hmm. Turns out, however, that she's pretty incredible. The judges are blown away. Keith Urban looks like he's about to cry.Also in that group are Candice Glover on "Girl on Fire" and Janelle Arthur on "I Told You So" and both are great. Who is not great is Zoanette Johnson, but that's no big surprise. She really has no business still being there. She makes up her song on the spot and it's like -- Ok.

It's been a long and sometimes tear-filled journey for the men of American Idol. They've survived auditions, sudden death eliminations, Group Rounds, and tonight they'll sing their final solo number for the judges.
Who will be left standing? Let's find out now...
Cuts will be made after every 8th performance.
Leading off the solo round is Paul Jolley who's quite nervous. So nervous he nearly cries before he can even sing and Mariah has to remind him to breathe. He's not able to overcome his nerves and Nicki calls his lack of confidence a "turn off" and unprofessional.
Lazaro Arbos is the second to sing and chooses Lady Gaga's "Edge of Glory." Curtis Finch, Jr., sings "Jar of Hearts" and his theatrics distract from what could be an otherwise interesting arrangement of the number.
From the first group, Lazaro, Paul, and Curtis all move on. We might only be...

The stakes were high as American Idol contestants converged on Hollywood to see if they have what it takes to be the next winner, as Ryan promised this judging panel would be one of the toughest we've ever seen.
They'll whittle down and weed out those who don't make the grade and at the end. Who'll be left standing? Let's find out now...
In addition to shaking up the judging panel this year, American Idol producers have also shaken up the competition. Instead of bringing all the contestants to Hollywood at the same time, they've opted to separate this round.
That's right--the first edition of Hollywood week is guys only. No girls allowed. (Except Nicki and Mariah, of course.)
The first round of Hollywood Week is the sudden death a capella round. In addition to impressing the judges, their families are in the balcony watching. The pressure is high as they take the stage.

“The evil of bullying”
Prime Minister Julia Gillard is fronting a campaign to tackle bullying.
In a video produced for The Community Brave Foundation, Gillard said: “Bullying hurts too many young Australians, in some cases so badly they don’t see the point of continuing their lives. Bullying is a great tragedy, and a great moral wrong – but it’s also a phenomenon we can do something about”.
Joining Gillard in the campaign are Senator Christine Milne, Senator Penny Wong, Senator Matt Thistlethwaite, Senator Doug Cameron, Minister Peter Garrett, Minister Adam Bandt, Sydney Lord Mayor Clover Moore and recently elected Sydney Independent MP Alex Greenwich.
