Her Name is Jane Lynch » Julie & Julia http://www.hernameisjanelynch.com You know her. You just don't know you know her.

In another Best-Of list, TV Guide named Jane Lynch’s portrayal of Sue Sylvester as one of the “Best Performances of the Year.” They say what we’ve been saying all along: that her diabolical plotting “is the perfect antidote to the show’s occasionally over-the-top sweetness.”  Exactly.

In other news, Jane appeared on The Bonnie Hunt Show a week or two ago.  You may or may not (probably will not) recall that Bonnie Hunt’s show recently got the ax, which is so sad because Bonnie Hunt seems like a very nice lady.  Honestly, though, we think her skillz lie in acting, not so much hosting. In this short segment, Jane talks about how her mom left her in the middle of the red carpet premiere of Julie & Julia to run and fawn over to Meryl Streep:

Because Jane mentioned that her mother did this in the middle of an Access Hollywood interview with Amy Adams, we just had to track down the clip.  You are welcome!!  Now, if you go forward to about 23 seconds in and look to your far, far left: we’re pretty sure that’s our Jane putting a “I know, it’s effing MERYL STREEP!” hand on her mom’s shoulder.

If you’d be so kind, order the DVD (or anything, for that matter) from Amazon using our ever handy links, and we promise to keep the respectful snark coming over the next year or so. Deal?

In other news, Jane Lynch has a short Q & A (will someone please do an actual spread on her already?!) over at Crave.  The article unfortunately is called “Jane Lynch is Our Favorite Villain” – unfortunate because this is a total misreading of the characters Jane plays, and because, really, everyone’s favorite villain is Willem Dafoe, especially after he made that horrendous Lars Von Trier movie, Antichrist.
