In Greece With 'mamma Mia!' Star Meryl Streep!
Mon, 30 Jun 2008 20:07:19 | Rate news: +1
Audiences who watch 'Mamma Mia!' are swept away on celluloid to the beautiful blue skies, white rocky cliffs and turquoise water of the Greek islands -- and "The Insider"'s own Lara Spencer is soaking up the sun on location with Meryl Streep in anticipation of this summer's musical masterpiece! "It's one of the most beautiful places I've been in my life," says Meryl of their idyllic location, adding that everyone in the cast bonded easily. "We had fantastic dinners at tavernas, where would could sit 16 people together, and we ate together every night, and there was a lot of great dancing." In theaters July 18, 'Mamma Mia!' is based on the hit Broadway musical, itself inspired by the incredibly catchy music of Abba. Featuring such sing-along classics as "Dancing Queen," "Knowing Me, Knowing You," "SOS" and, of course, "Mamma Mia," the story follows an independent, single mother (Meryl) and her spirited, about-to-be-married daughter (Amanda Seyfried) who is determined to find the identity of her father to walk her down the aisle. Pierce Brosnan, Colin Firth and Stellan Skarsgard are the three candidates, all of whom were involved with Meryl's character 20 years earlier when they visited her Mediterranean paradise. Julie Walters and Christine Baranski round out the cast as Meryl's best girlfriends, with Dominic Cooper as Amanda's handsome fiancé. Meryl tells Lara that she used to listen to Abba back in the days of drama school when she'd be in exercise class "because that music does get you pumping when you're lazy," and adds with a smile that sometimes those catchy tunes "go into your head and lodge there, and I thought I knew them all, but I had some of the lyrics wrong [and] they pointed it out to me." So, which is her favorite Abba song? "God, I don't know," she says. "'Dancing Queen' was like the iconic great song. It was impossible to maintain your gloom, or even try as I might to go down." Watch "The Insider" on TV Monday night for more with Meryl and Lara!

"The Insider" has the latest... Chris Kattan married model Sunshine Tutt during a ceremony on Saturday, the comedy star confirmed on his official Web site.  "Married in beautiful Yosemite Valley, California today," said a brief statement on the former "Saturday Night Live" funnyman's Web site. The couple got engaged back in 2006 on Christmas Eve at the home of Tutt's grandparents home in Gainesville, Texas. Kattan, 37, later spoke about the proposal to Tutt, 31, in his Web journal. "I got engaged. Crazy, huh? So, I did the whole formulaic proposal thing. I asked her the big question, She got a little misty in the eyes and said, 'No.' Then I said, 'Aaah, come on bro. Please?' Then she said, 'Did you just call me bro?'" Kattan has popped up in a series of comedy movies since leaving "SNL" in 2003. Tutt also appeared on the bid screen in 2001, playing a model in 'Monkeybone,' and has played herself in episodes of the TV series "Sunset Tan."
