Following is a part of an article about a private party held this week. Since it was a private event I won’t give the source this time (and it talks about something irrelevant about her). I wouldn’t even reproduce it if it wasn’t for the lovely words the writer had about Nicollette.

Yes, she’s beautiful, fit, friendly, tan and cool. She projected no trace of Hollywood attitude. She was, however, sore from riding a horse that day.

As if I needed another reason to love Felicity. I wasn’t expecting any less from her, after all, Nicollette was her drinking buddy.

‘Desperate Housewives‘ actress Felicity Huffman has said that she misses her former co-star Nicollette Sheridan on set.

Speaking to Digital Spy, the actress, who plays Lynette Scavo in the show, said: “Gosh, well, I miss Nicollette – she was cool.”

“She’s just a really wonderful woman and a cool chick and I think what she brought to the show was a certain vinegar, a certain little spice.”

“They’re going to have to find that kind of thing elsewhere in a different form.”

Sheridan’s character Edie left the show last season.

Since it’s slow news on Nicollette’s world, except for those rumors about Harry Potter; I thought of sharing this part of an article on a blog of the Los Angeles Times.

We here at Show Tracker admit we haven’t followed “Desperate Housewives” since Nicollette Sheridan departed. Sorry, but we just couldn’t quite forgive killing off Edie, and we took it personally.

You can read the whole article here. But if you haven’t watched 6.11 If… yet, be warned you’ll be spoiled.

I also found an old interview where Neal McDonough talks about Edie’s death and Nic’s last day on set. I truly hope they’re keeping their friendship out of the Desperate Housewives world.

What was filming Edie’s end like?
You’ll see in the episode what I do to poor Nic. It is truly horrible, brutal, but it had to be done. It’s a simple scene, but in its execution it was very difficult. It took forever to do because it was just so hard and very emotional for Dave. You truly see both sides, you see his split personality in this one moment.

Dave is tragic, but Edie’s a fan favorite! Can he emerge from this and still elicit viewer sympathy?
Well, you realize how much he did truly love Edie. But he knows he has a job to do. In the episode after next, everyone on Wisteria Lane comes and tries to help Dave out because he’s such a mess after what happens. It’s not so black and white. Although, someone the other day did call me McCreepy. . . .

(…)

What was everyone’s reaction when news leaked that Edie would be killed off?
Everybody was bummed. But I think Nic, she’s been doing it for five years, and she’s been on television now for 30, and she was like, ‘I wouldn’t mind.’ She’s had a rough time. She had the break-up with Michael Bolton, and all these other things in the papers about David Spade, and she was like, you know, I’m tired of this crap. Not tired of ‘Housewives,’ but tired of a lot of the outside stuff. I think it was the right time for her and the right time for the show.

Tell me about Sheridan’s last day on set.
It was bizarre. It’s like saying goodbye to your sister. It was very somber. A huge cake came out and everyone was there and it was just very odd.  But she’s happy about it and is very excited about the future, rest time and everything else. But it’ll be strange. Me and my wife and the kids, we’d see her all the time. She came by for birthdays and all these things. At her house, it was pool parties. She’s just a terrific gal. She’ll be sorely, sorely missed.

End of the year means time for list recapping the year. Now it’s turn for SheKnows Entertaiment and its list with the 10 best TV moments of 2009. Edie’s death made it.

10. Desperate Housewives
As the snarky, unabashed, outspoken housewife, one may go so far to say they saw Edie Britt’s exit a long time coming. As she was dazed and unaware in the driving scene, she loses her life via an electric shock and falls to the ground.  Nicollette Sheridan was quoted several months ago saying that she was done with the character and ready for new projects. “I’m on to the next project and done with this show.”

09. Grey’s Anatomy
08. Glee
07. Nurse Jackie

Nicollette is featured on this week’s article on WWDLifestyle as one of the best-dressed people at White House events.

Thanks to flash-happy couple Tareq and Michaele Salahi, the ultraexclusive social event known as the White House dinner has received some serious ink in the past few weeks. While the Salahis might not have been invited (they maintain they were), they seem to have, retrospectively at least, injected some fun and intrigue into that heavily policed, often staid affair.

This week, we took a look back at some of the best-dressed people (including some presumably invited celebrities: Garry Shandling! Michael Bolton! Oprah and Stedman!) at White House events.

KNOTS LANDING’S NICOLLETTE SHERIDAN
On Paper Dolls and Knots Landing… “I Wasn’t About to Be Pushed Around” Though relatively new to TV acting, Nicollette Sheridan has always spoken her mind.
By Carol A. Crotta

She is dessed to kill in a drop-dead black, her blonde hair pulled into a little puff at the top, her mouth carefully carved in a bright scarlet. It’s no wonder, as she moves through the Lorimar-Telepictures commissary to the exclusive Lion’s Den at the back, that even such jaded heads as these are turning. Nicollette Sheridan, 23, has come to understand that she possesses, thanks to fate and good genes, “a look, you know, I suppose – a marketable look.”

That look has in five years taken her from a boarding school in the English countryside to the cover of Cosmopolitan to a steady flow of acting jobs, including this latest on CBS’s Knots Landing. She joined the cast at the end of last season, playing Mac MacKenzie’s long-lost illegitimate daughter, Paige Matheson, and occasionally, in flashbacks, Paige’s mother, Anne. It’s the kind of coy, wait-until-next-week role that can either expand or shrink, depending on how she’s doing and how the audience is responding. So far, so good. “Obviously, we’re writting her up,” says producer Lawrence Kasha, “or else she’d de on the train to nowhere.”

As Sheridan recounts the course her career has taken, it’s clear the train to nowhere seems nowhere in sight. What can you say, for example, when she explains that, when she started out, she auditioned for 10 commercials and got eight of them? That she was chosen for a major role in ABC’s short-lived Paper Dolls with no prior acting credits? That she originally got into modelling after the head of one of London’s largest agencies approached her at a party?

“I think I’ve been very lucky,” she says. “A lot of this business is being in the right place at the right time with the right thing.” The right thing, she might have added, is a resolve and strong sense of self rare in someone her age. She and Paige, not coincidentally, share, “a real streak of survival,” an independence that got Sheridan through an emotionally tough childhood.

I’ve been wondering if I should post this or not, as I don’t like posting things concering Nicollette’s personal life. But this is just too sweet I need to share it.

The worst thing about the end of the relationship (with Sheridan) was losing your best friend in the world and your closest confidante.

It’s a cliche, but I just want Nicollette to be happy. You want the heat, the magic, the connection on every level, but ultimately it’s the bond of deepest friendship that’s the most powerful aspect to any relationship.

This is only a part of the article, you can read the rest here.

I bring to you one of my all time favourite interviews of Nicollette. Really intimate.

NICOLLETTE SHERIDAN BARES HER SOUL
“I’m not a home-wrecker and I’m not the vixen I played on ‘Knots Landing.’ I’m quite the antithesis of that”
By Mary Murphy

Her heart is broken. And it’s a surprise: Nicollette Sheridan is usually the one who breaks hearts. She sits huddled on a green lounge chair on the patio of her exquisitely decorated Bel-Air house, looking beautiful, without a touch of makeup. To an outsider, she has everything: youth, beauty, fame, wealth. She’s a princess in a Hollywood paradise and yet Sheridan herself doesn’t feel that way. For the past three months, except for working on the NBC movie ‘A Time To Heal‘, she’s been holed up in this palatial prison wondering what went wrong in her love affair with Michael Bolton.

“It’s been a really down period,” she says. “Three months ago, Michael and I slipt up. I spent a lot of time alone. It was a time to reflect. I had to look at my life… It was painful.”

This is certainly not the kind of conversation you would expect from Nicollette Sheridan. On Knots Landing, in which she played petulant vixen Paige Matheson for seven years, she was called The Brat, for speaking her mind and getting away with it. But it’s her rogue reputation with men that follows her everywhere. She’s known for lining up lovers like dominoes, then toppling them over. In the past few years she’s been linked with actor John Ritter, Knots Landing‘s Joey Gian, musician Roger Wilson, and movie mogul Jon Peters. In 1991 she married L.A. Law heartthrob Harry Hamlin, then left him for Bolton.

As if her real life weren’t steamy enough, Sheridan is the subject of endless tabloid speculation. One charged that she was dating Tori Spelling’s boyfriend, Nicholas Savalas. “He’s my [half-] brother!” she says. “They hooked me up with my own brother. You can’t win.”

Off-camera, Sheridan has always affected a tough, wisecraking persona. She’s a Hollywood heartbreaker who used to go off-road biking and dance on table tops. But sitting her in a pair of jeans and a white T-shirt, she’s softer than anyone would imagine.

“They just don’t get it,” says pal Jackie Collins, who met Sheridan when she starred in Collin’s TV miniseries Lucky/Chances. “It’s Nicollette the body, the blonde, and the boys. That’s all they see. They’re wrong. Nicollette is an old soul who is very wise, very smart, and very nurturing of her friends.”

Sheridan has always hidden behind her brazen image. It was easier to be a bad girl than a girl with a broken heart. “Throughout the years, I have really sort of laid low and kept to myself,” she says. “And, of course, therefore I have been picked on a lot, and people could fabricate whatever they felt like saying about me.” Now, she wants to explain herself and set the record straight.

This week, Sheridan is taking the biggest risk of her career when she appears as a woman who suffers a stroke during childbirth and has to reevaluate her life, in ‘A Time To Heal‘. But in just a few hours, she sill fly to Japan, where Bolton is touring, to try to put back together the pieces of her broken heart.

“I love him very much,” she wails, twirling her blond ponytail and looking very much like a love-struck teenager. “You know how they say that opposites attract. Well, Harry and I were opposites. But Michael and I are very much alike. And we are struggling to have the ultimate relationship.”

The past few months have been her own time to heal. She and Bolton have talked, they’ve learned from their mistakes, and they’re trying again.

Sheridan met Bolton in 1991. Hamlin was away and she went to a party with her closet friends, sax man Kenny G and his wife, Lyndie. “Michael was so funny,” shw says, remembering that meeting. “He makes me laugh more than anyone else I ever met.”

It wasn’t, she insists, love at first sight. “We weren’t dating when the press said we were having a relationship. It started off very slowly, but we did start dating soon after my split.”

She remembers her first trip on the road with Bolton. “I stood in the wings,” she says. “I watched him in awe. I couldn’t sing to save my life, so it’s incredible to see how he puts out so much emotion. I love watching him sing. And I love the fact that we’re not both actors and that he is successful in his field.”

She quickly learned how successful. Wherever he goes, he causes a ruckus. She doesn’t. At first, it was difficult. “Women freak out when they see him,” she says. “They just freak out. I can go to the grocery store, to the movies, or walk my dog in the park. It’s getting harder and harder for him to do anything like that. I definitely don’t create the kind of chaos he does.”

Is it threatening? “No,” she says. “I don’t feel threatened. Just scared.”
