Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at Ashley and her former castmates when they shot for Nylon Magazine’s TV Issue! So cute and funny. Ash is with Sara. There’s also stars from other shows like Lie To Me & The Vampire Diaries. They talk favorite TV shows as well as TV nostalgia.

Its Official The CW has cancelled The Beautiful Life after two episodes.  Let’s hope they at least air the remaining episodes.

It’s sad because it did in some cases MUCH better than MP but because it’s a reboot (a la 90210 they’ll keep that).  Well here’s hoping much success for our girl Ashley and her co-stars!

Over 300+ caps were uploaded tonight of The Beautiful Life: TBL | The Beautiful Aftermath. Marissa got sneaky. This show keeps getting better with every episode and her one-liners are absolutely hilarious. Here are some previews from the episode:

Enjoy!

Here’s a synopsis of what to expect in episode 3, The Beautiful Lie…

Season 1: “The Beautiful Lie”
SABASTIAN ROCHE (“GENERAL HOSPITAL”) GUEST STARS — Sonja (Mischa Barton) is being hounded by the press about a risqué photo which forces her to consider quitting the modeling business. Aware of the chemistry between Raina (Sara Paxton) and Cole (Nico Tortorella), Claudia (Ell Macpherson) secures a campaign for a major clothing line for the two. Raina struggles with the public image she must maintain with Cole, while her true feelings are for Chris (Ben Hollingsworth). Raina’s family drama finds its way back into her life and she finally faces her father (guest star Sebastian Roche, “General Hospital”). Isaac’s (Corbin Bleu) relationship with Vivienne (guest star Jamie Murray, “Dexter”) is strained when he is surprisingly replaced, by Chris during a photo shoot. Raina’s brother, Alex (guest star Billy Magnussen, “As the World Turns”), lands himself in a bit of trouble with the Russian mob, but Marissa (Ashley Madekwe) comes to his rescue.

It’s shaping up to be yet another good episode!

Ashley has an interview online with The Examiner about beauty secrets, fitness, and what’s to come on the new series – The Beautiful Life: TBL.  You ever wonder how Ashley keeps up with looking so beautiful, what she uses for make-up and more – well you can find out now!  Here are some cool blurbs from the interview…

What is your daily beauty regimen?
When I wake up in the morning, I always wash my face with a gel cleanser, either from Dermalogica or Clinique and I always moisturize. I use Oil of Olay as a moisturizer.

Who is your personal beauty icon?
I love Thandie Newton. She always looks so fresh faced and her skin looks really pure. Love her.

Can you tell me a little bit more about your character Marissa on The Beautiful Life?
I play Marissa, and she’s very spicy, ambitious, she’s not afraid to say how she feels and go after what she wants.
[Admin Note: Read the entire article here.]

Just lovely; isn’t she the best? I can definitely see Ashley and Ms. Thandie Newton in a film somewhere down the road playing perhaps mother/daughter or even sisters. Here’s hoping!

The Beautiful Life continues tonight with The Beautiful Aftermath… here’s what’s going to go down tonight.

Season 1: “The Beautiful Aftermath”
NINA GARCIA (“PROJECT RUNWAY”) GUEST STARS — Chris (Ben Hollingsworth) believes his chances at a modeling career are over and prepares to leave New York City until he receives a surprise phone call from Claudia (Elle Macpherson). Claudia informs Raina (Sara Paxton) that she needs to focus more on her career and less on her new relationship with Chris. Isaac (Corbin Bleu) confronts Vivienne (guest star Jamie Murray, “Dexter”) about her behavior towards him at a go-see, and the two end up working out an arrangement that serves both their needs. Marissa (Ashley Madekwe) accuses Sonja (Mischa Barton) of stealing the Versace campaign from her and decides to seek revenge in a very public way, which leads Sonja to Cole (Nico Tortorella) for assistance. Marissa invites Raina’s brother, Alex (guest star Billy Magnussen, “As the World Turns”), to a party hosted by Nina Garcia (“Project Runway”), where more secrets about Raina’s past are revealed.
