“E!” is trying to save face with Zooey Deschanel after the entertainment news provider took the spotlight to her new ad for Rimmel London.

Normally, extra headline space is great publicity but not in Deschanel’s case. Her ad got the “air-brushed” stamp of disapproval – one that many starlets, including Kate Winslet, have received lately.

Questions started surfacing about the image in the Lasting Finish Lipstick ad, as reporters (including those at “E!”) questioned if the final ad even looked like Deschanel.

A former “Saturday Night Live” comedian can’t find the humor (or relativity) in the gay kiss heard round the world from last week’s ‘Glee’ episode.

Victoria Jackson called it, “Ridiculous.”

It's a story that's been done before of course, but FG gets some good jokes out of it in this episode.
