Kate Walsh Wears a Wicked White
Kate Walsh arrives at the opening of the 3.1 Phillip Lim Los Angeles store on Thursday.
On Tuesday night, the Private Practice star showed up on Jimmy Kimmel Live wearing nothing but a white bath towel and high heels.
When she came out Kimmel asked, “Is today my birthday or something?”
“I was supposed to wear a fancy, sparkly sequined dress… It was very hot and I was ready to rock it out,” Kate said. “The tailor had taken it in. … and I looked like a Vegas stripper. For me, it was not right. I wanted to keep it pure and clean. I’m bringing back the towel.”
Check out the video of Kate in her white towel on Jimmy Kimmel Live.

That dress makes her look like a granny!
not feeling the dress..something u would get at Goodwill not knocking goodwill but u get a mix of everything there
UGLY.
UGH! VOMIT!
mm she looked better before. but I like the dress. not bad at all.
I’d like to see some new on set pics too.
Just Jared, where are Ellen Pompeo pics please??? all her fans are waiting for you to give us some more Ellen. we miss her.
She looks like a man.
Thanks for the new pictures, Jared! I actually love the dress and the shoes (Loubitans, right?) I could understand people not liking it, but to me Kate looks classy. The shoes are very elegant. She is glowing lately.
Trence, there are a lot of pictures of Ellen in Boston or wherever the basketball playoffs were held last week. There are also recent pictures of her in NY. I would give the link to them, but I have no idea how.
Thanks for that! I don’t like the color of the dress, but like the shoes and kate of course!Mmmmmm, what interesting dress….
I think she is pregnant. Looks pretty.
she’s totally pregnant
3.1 Phillip Lim is one of my favourite designers, but I don’t really like this dress.
Thanks Jared!
She looks so soft and sweet. Love her!
Gosh Kate, what did you do? You looks horrible in that dress and it seems you’re 50.
I’m beginning to think # 10 and 11 are correct. I would love to see Kate and Alex have a baby. I love the close up of Kate’s ring. It is very classic and elegant. And it’s worth saying again-those shoes are awsome!
Kate, you look beautiful!
Hmm… PREGNANT!
I love her! yet, I don’t love the dress…. still, any new pics are great so thank you, JJ!
Aww I think she looks great!
Love Kate so much.
Thanks for the pics.
She is obviously pregnant. Some people can be so damn rude. She looks beautful. Congrats to her and her hubby.

Thanks JJ.
Kate looks classy, and gorgeous, and pregnant.
she wore a towel?
trashy attention ***** much?
stop making accusations that she’s pregnant. these rumors have gone around before just let her be. She looks fantastic it’s just that, that dress is not the greatest. when kate is pregnant she will tell. why do you people have to make it so hard for her? these rumors cause people to go anorexic. just stop. holy man.
though i would love to see kate and alex with a baby. they would make great parents.
I liked the dress! It’s classy….and it’s hiding something in my opinion….
HELLO she is pregnant. It is obvious, its not the dress. Duh.
The dress is to hide the pregnancy but she is gorgeous.
#19. Word. People can be so rude & jealous !!
She’s most likely pregnant, it’s no secret if you’ve followed Kate’s pictures recently. She looks beautiful & glowing. Thanks for the photos Jared.
Only Kate could look gorgeous wearing a the towel on Kimmel !! I love the fact he has a huge crush on her. Pity the next guest Jerry Springer did the same, no-one wants to see his legs !
I love her shoes. She sure has a great collection of Louboutins.
And congrats to her & Alex if she is pregnant - they come across as a very sweet down-to-earth couple in Hollywood. She has had a great few years, her own show, marriage, & now a possible baby. And I’m glad the red hair is back.
damn she look like a man in the face
OMG she is totally pregnant!! Its so obvious!
Thanks 4 the pics JJ.
Thanks JJ.
Love Kate. She looks gorgeous.
So pretty. Soft & feminine. Love that metallic belt too.
oh snap! = it’s called bone structure. Kate is lucky to have been blessed with cheekbones & bedroom eyes. She isn’t a non-descript flat faced, no features woman. I can see how many compare her to the classic beauty Catherine Deneuve. Beautiful.
God I love her. Thanks JJ
I like those sparkly bracelets she has been wearing lately. Very pretty.
Video of Kate signing autographs for fans afterwards. Love that she kept her word & signed for everyone, even apologising for her messy signature lol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bt9nI8LYRZY
She’s looking old… like a 60 year old woman. Yeesh!
Kate always does great funny interviews. One of the few actresses who is naturally funny IRL. She is truly versatile. Can’t wait till PrP returns.
Thanks Jared. I hope the rumors are true. They are a cute couple.
To the rude and jealous, we know that you are bitter, bitter , bitter, bitter because JJ didn’t pick up the photos of the one that doesn’t even sit by her husband anymore at ball games. Not even that makes her interesting.
Kate is looking great.
I like the dress. Perfect summer dress, floaty & light. And I love it when Kate wears her red hair all loose & wavy. So naturally beautiful. Thanks for the photos Jared.
The Kimmel interview is brilliant. Only the white towel could top Kimmel’s appreciation of the red sparkly dress she wore on her last interview.
PrP starts July in UK folks
WIth Season 2 already picked up for next yr.
I’m 99% sure she is pregnant. She has been wearing looser clothing recently, & the set pics from PrP show an obvious bump. Shonda did say they would would work around Kate if she decided to have a baby - which is great news. They are already shooting ep 3, can’t wait for the first promo vids soon.
“JJ didn’t pick up the photos of the one that doesn’t even sit by her husband anymore at ball games. Not even that makes her interesting.”
TRUE!! If that was KW she would have sat right there next to her husband wearing no clothes or a hand towel so everyone would be looking at her.
Gawd help EP for not being a media wh*re who’d go on TV in a TOWEL just for people to care about her. KW is low class trash who’d do anything to get people to look at her.
She looks old , she better be pregnant or get so soon. Her age is catching up to her.
gross
the people wanting her pregnant so bad are sick in the head. get lives.
#37 - Why would anyone be jealous because that person respects her privacy to not want to sit in front of the cameras all night? She gets my respect. Unlike someone else who defines the word “desperate”
Kate looks beautiful. Not really fond of the dress, but I do believe she is pregnant. She has a nice very successful husband, her own show, a movie she just finished (coming out next year), and a possible baby on the way. Wonderful.
Thanks for the autograph video. She is so sweet.
Why do you people who claim to dislike Kate so much always come looking for her? And you do realize there was a lot more to the towel on Jimmy Kimmel than the desire for attention. It may have been a funny way to hide a growing baby bump (I cannot believe I just used that term) or more likely, since Jerry Springer also came out wearing a towel, it was part of Kimmel’s comic plan. You see, unlike some one hit show wonders in Hollywood, Kate has always been a working actor and comedian. Comedians are people who do things to be funny and make others laugh. One of the reasons why I and I suspect many others love to watch Kate in an interview is because it is an outlet for her to display her natural comic abilities. Hence, the towel was meant to be funny-and judging from the crowd on Kimmel, and many comments afterwards-it worked. I found it very much in the same vein as Will Ferrel’s comedy. But if this type of humor offends you so much, than perhaps you should refrain from watching late night TV.
I have to say it again-those shoes are fantastic!
You know what? All of you jealous haters need to get over yourself!
Kate doesn’t go around flashing her n*pples, she doesn’t ditch her husband because unlike your media wh*re, she actually cares! I know. Shocker to a lot of you. It’s unusual seeing someone that has a heart, unlike your sl*t that was accused of having an affair with her co-star. And you think KATE’S a media wh*re?! SERIOUSLY?! She’s not even close! She went out in that towel because one, it was hilarious and she looked stunning. And two, her dress was not to her standards!
Anyway, Kate looks gorgeous in anything she wears. The towel was HOTTTT!!! Outrageous! And Jimmy’s comments made it even better. He was right on! Amazing interview, she always has the funniest things to share. Looking forward to the next interview!
I really hope that Kate will have a baby Walsh!! Kate and Alex would be great parents. Not to mention their baby girl or boy would be gorgeous! Best wishes to the happy couple!!!
To the person mentioning her age, I have never seen such a rude immature comment, not to Kate, just women in general. Getting pregnant is not all that simple for some women. Some women even in their 20s have trouble conceiving or even have many miscarriages til they are able to carry a pregnancy thru term. Some women try for years and years, and are unable to have a child. So, mentioning someone’s age is terribly rude and inconsiderate to all women. Grow up.
As for the rest of you rude people, I am not even going to waste my time on you. #45 Brainysmurf, could job though.
It’s obvious that poster #40-43 are the same person. They don’t even try to make their comments look different. Moaning cos there are no pics of their star. Boo hoo. Jealously just makes you look green.
Kate Walsh actually has a sense of humor & is a valued talkshow guest because she can actually talk without resorting to insults or coming across as a total cow & *****. She can forms opinions & express them without the need of a script. Other actresses are so vapid & boring in real life, that they only have fashion shows to turn up to cos they can’t be trusted to open their mouths otherwise.
And the towel gag was a running gag as the next guest wore one too, but then that would be lost on those with a humor bypass
Thanks for the photos Jared. We Walshaholics (copyright BauerGriffin !) appreciate the pics of a talented individual.
Kate has a great sense of humor & a great sense of irony which is completely lost on some naive little things, who can only resort to mud-slinging when they don’t get what they want. Grow up.
I loved that interview. Anyone watching the new season of Weeds ? Didn’t Kate date Justin Kirk a few years ago ? I can totally see why, both of them are hilarious.
Loving the photos. The color grey looks awesome on redheads.
Thanks Walshaholic for that video link. That was very nice of Kate to sign & pose for those photos with fans. One of them even saw her at that charity improv thing by the sounds of it. She is so down-to-earth, someone on PP compared her to George Clooney in that she has that natural charm both on and off screen which totally comes across. Let’s hope this SAG strike doesn’t materialise.
She looks pretty & I would be so happy for her if she is pregnant. I suppose we will know some enough, just have to be patient…!
Not a favorite dress, but very elegant & classic, like La Walsh herself.
Thanks Jared.
She looks old and frumpy.
to 35:
Do not use my name to say that thing! And kate is goorgeus!!
Oh sweet lord, seriously can you guys be more obviously jealous no one cares about the one with the lumberjack walk? Face it no one cares.
Kate is a gorgeous woman, with a brain, and sense of humor to rival her her looks. I love that she is extremely easy on the eye, but a truly love that she is an intelligent and articulate woman with a genius sense of humor.
She with all her success and all her popularity never has been anything less than gracious or generous towards others, and humbly grateful for her good fortune.
she looks ugly and old.
And we have another live idiot.
Actually the same live idiot posting with different names, change the email too…
58th!!! She really has aged around the eyes in the last few months. I love her, but she good have picked out a better dress to wear. This one does nothing for her figure, pregnant or not.
another hater. It gets old, you know?
If you don’t like her, don’t post. Period. is that a hard thing to do?
LMAO. Oh this is getting funny now. Ya know what is really sad, the person who begged for pics, Brainysmurf actually answered he/she very nicely. Then they continued to bash. Goes to show, that you just cant be nice to some.
She’s amazing!!!
Thanks, Jamie! I like your posts too.
On a fun note, OK magazine had a small write up about Kate and Alex. Apparently Kate surprised Alex with tickets to the US Open because he is a golf lover. Kate tried to golf, but she was not that good. Oh well, at least she tried.
omg thanks JJ for the pics!
She is def preggers!!! That kid is gonna be gorgeous!
Is the world prepared for that kind of greatness and beauty??
lol
This dress is very elegant on Kate. The bracelets are especially amazing. I really want Kate Walsh’s wardrobe and I want to look as good as she does in it. The woman is supposed to be forty and she looks great.
I do not think she is pregnant (she’s too thin) but I agree-when she and her husband have them, they’ll be beautiful.
Back at ya Brainysmurf!
OMG, thanks so much for the cute OK magazine info. Ill be sure to pick it up. Aw..they are such a cute sweet couple.
Really don’t like the dress….
Thanks JJ
She looks scary to me. :Like she’s a mean and serious person in real life. I’ve seen her in an interview before and she seemed pretty cold.
#71 Ummmm…. What interiew were YOU watching? Every interview Kate has ever done has been outrageously funny! So unless you are seriously lacking a sense of humor or you’re just completely insane, you were most likely not watching a Kate WALSH interview.
#71 you are entitled to your opinion, but Kate is one of the very few actresses out there that gains fans every time she does a tallk show appearance. People that never watch GA love her for her talk show appearances. It’s one of her many great talents, to give great interviews. That is one of the reasons that she was the one doing most them for GA during season 3. For PrP she has to because she is the leading lady, but the booker for Kimmel does say they love to have her because “she always has a twinkle in her eyes”.
She is even greater on the radio when they give her not the odd 6 minutes but half and hour.
.
Liz needs to stop smoking whatever it is & swot up on her actresses. You are not talking about Kate because there is no such thing as a cold Kate interview in existence lol.
Thanks for that bit about the golf BrainySmurf. Sweet that Kate got them tickets. And I loved the photos of Kate trying to play golf in those high heels !
I love her she is such a beautiful lady with a warm personality. She is a charming and sweet faced person.
She was on a french magazine last week, but it was just pics about the upskirt.
Love you kate walsh!!
sexysassy - I love the pic you have on your YouTube background.
And thanks JJ for Kate photos. We fans appreciate them
Thank you hannah!
The dress looks better in the pics of her moving. When she’s posing it looks awful.
New kate and alex pics here… http://kate.galerie.free.fr/cpg133/thumbnails.php?album=338
Thanks Ally for the link. Kate looks adorable with that headscarf !! They make a cute couple. Love the pic of them sat holding hands.
If the rumors are true (& it’s looking increasingly likely), glad to see she can cool off in the heat.
Thanks for the pics, Ally! They look so good together
Thanks, Ally
They look great, and oo so cute all of them…
Thanks!
Kate and Alex are adorable.
I love this pic (the link below), it is the cutest pic ever
http://kate.galerie.free.fr/cpg133/displayimage.php?pid=14768&fullsize=1
So love her hair style!!!
And love the pic where they are sit together!
And she ’s aeting a “FLOUP” lol!! SOOO CUUUUUUTTTEEEE!!!!!
Thanks for the pics, Ally.
They are so adorable!
thank you so much for all the pictures JJ. I belive that Kate can look good in anything. The shoes are very nice. I do really do think that she is pregnant!! Thank you for the link Ally.
gorgeous as always! beautiful woman, beautiful dress, beautiful shoes. You don’t have any sense of fashion but we french people do. Her dress is really classy I love it and want the same! Sorry but Kate is not pregnant. Take a look a the pictures on the french site: “phillip lim la store opening”. She’s drinking champagne. I want her pregnant but not right now because of the show. she would have to leave it for a few episodes to give birth. If she wants a baby she’s gonna choose the right time to get pregnant. Love Kate Walsh!! She’s the BEST!!
#88
Look at the photos again, since when does champagne is at room temperature, and doesn’t have bubbles?
The glass has no condensation, and no bubbles, either she was walking around with a full glass for a long time not drinking or that isn’t champagne…
It wasnt champagne. You can tell. Besides since when does holding a champagne glass mean it is champagne in the glass. You can put anything in a glass. Its called juice.
And how VERY RUDE of you to say you hope she isnt pregnant because of a stupid TV show. Since when does being on TV mean you cant be pregnant. Grow up and Get some respect, if you are so called fan you wouldnt say inconsiderate things like that!
#89 if you say so! You so want her pregnant that you see signs everywhere. But I have to say I want you to be right!
OK, lets not attack #88, she/he is entitled to her opinion, and she loves KW so that’s enough
Thanks jess that’s very nice of you. #90 I knew people would react like that. I just gave my opinion. What are you supposed to drink in a glass of champagne? apple juice? You need to start living in the real world. This isn’t your life. Stop saying she’s pregnant when you don’t know. I really, really love Kate Walsh, girl crush like some of you girls said before, but I have to say some of you fans are really scary sometimes.
I forgot to say. I didn’t want to say I didn’t want her pregnant. I meant I don’t think she’s gonna want to get pregnant right now because of her show. I express myself wrong. Sorry if I offended you. I have a ******* exam in half an hour so I’m pretty tensed I don’t think you’re scary sorry. If you’re scary what am I?!
On Kate’s wikipedia:
On Tuesday, June 17, 2008, Walsh made an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live to promote her ongoing spin-off of Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice, which is set for a second season. Instead of wearing a dress, she decided to wear a white bathroom towel due to wardrobe issues allegedly bringing up suspicions of a pregnancy.
Heres the direct link:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kate_Walsh_(actor)
Also Kate will be presenting (again) at the ESPY Awards on July 20th.
Kate has said in interviews that she wants two kids, a girl and a boy. Last summer (when she was engaged) in a French interview, she said she wanted to have two kids with Alex but they are both traditional and wanted to wait til they were married. Then, they would have to hurry b/c of her age.
Kate is a smart woman, she knows she can do both as women have done for centuries (women on TV as well).
yes, but I have to tell u that this french interview had a lot of mistakes on it, and i’m sure the journalist did not met kate, to interview her;He certainly took some information on rumours.
Although, the kids things is right cause she said it on the interview in the last german, she want two kids, a boy and a girl.But it’s her life and if she want to tell us some thing, she will tell us.
Sorry did a mistake: it’s “the last german interview”
The interview was a question and a answer interview. It was not from rumors. Whether or not the reporter met Kate means nothing, you can do a interview over phone. The reporter asked her a question and she answered. And she said the same in a recent german interview (where she was there in person, not that it matters).
PrP article (spoilery):
http://bp0.blogger.com/_RrObyQ3XzcY/SGEwtK7VBRI/AAAAAAAAZpg/Yuk-EHQbdcM/s1600-h/Private+Practice.jpg
Thanks for the wikipedia thing; she did look hot with that towel. And thanks for the PP article
Can’t wait for new pics *hint JJ*
Thanks Jamie for the PrP article. It all sounds great !! Glad to hear they will be doing more location filming outside the practice & that S2 will pick up straight from the finale.
Poor Pete though - has he really been standing on Addie’s doorstep for 9 months LOL
the french interview was made up. I’m french and I read it so I understood everything. It was full of mistakes. When she described the proposal for example. It wasn’t what she said in OK! right after her wedding so don’t believe it.
Your welcome.
#103 There may very well have been mistakes. However, in a German interview done while she was in Germany person-to-person interview, she said she wanted two kids. No mistake there.
jamie…do you have a link to that german interview?
Jared, there are new pictures of Kate on the set of Private Practice. Do you think you could post them?
Did we hear if she is pregnant?
No word yet Maggie, but I think most of her fans are convinced !
It looks like they are filming eps 3 & 4 already. I hope the actors strike doesn’t materialise !
Even if there was a strike, it takes at least 3 weeks to organize a vote on a strike, and the SAG direction as no immediate plans to call for a vote. That makes a strike only possible for the end of July.
And even if they vote for a strike, they might not call it immediately inot action, so an eventual strike migh even come in latter.
With some luck, a lot of hard work from writers, cast, and crew, we might at least 6-7 episodes by the end of July. They are getting sides out for new episodes in an interval of 10-12 days.
brand new pics on the french site. could someone tell me what is this actors strike about?
I found something. here’s the link :http://www.nytimes.com/2008/06/26/arts/television/26stri.html?ref=movies
she’s preggo. the towel says it all.
Yeah, the towel says is all, but we sure would like some more pics.
*wink wink* got it JJ?
We have got such a lot of Kate goodies coming up :-
1) The TCAs - ABC are concentrating on it’s new shows - PrP included, so lots of photos & news. Sometime between 7-22 July.
2) Kate as a guest host on Comedy Central’s “The Gong Show with Dave Attell”. Sometime July/Aug.
3) Kate presenting at the ESPN awards
4) PrP Season 2 premieres 1 Oct (I’m betting they show a clip show to recap Season 1 the previous week).
PrP started in Australia last week & won its demo in the hour - fab Kate interview :-
