Screencaptures of Grey's Anatomy's episode: 4x13 Piece of My Heart are now in the gallery!
I'll just come right out and say it: Even at a proximity of three feet Kate Walsh is utterly stunning, as I found out last night sitting opposite the "Private Practice" star in the bowels of a local hotel. Not bad, as she admits herself, for a 40-year-old actress, a mainstay on "sexiest" lists: Sexiest TV actresses, sexiest TV docs, sexiest Hollywood Obama supporters.
Coincidentally, Walsh was in D.C. yesterday to talk sex -- sex education -- at a packed Planned Parenthood event. Walsh's briefing drew hordes of Capitol Hill staffers hoping to catch a whiff of her star power and get a load of the woman who has kissed both McDreamy and McSteamy.
Walsh, though, says she was happiest to see Planned Parenthood's teen advocates share the mike with her to talk about their work in peer education.
"They're really amazing and crucial in sex education," said Walsh. "They fill in the gaps to supplement the abstinence program, which is really not working."
And, conceded Walsh, one need look no further than 16-year-old Jamie Lynn Spears for a high profile teen pregnancy. Spears's pregnancy, the actress says, only points out how far this country hasn't come in discussing sex with teens. Walsh, a staunch Barack Obama supporter, plans to continue her work with his campaign Monday in Philadelphia. She says the Illinois Senator and presidential contender has a solid track record of supporting pro-women, pro-choice legislation.
Then, Monday, she returns to Los Angeles to shoot a "very special" episode of "Grey's Anatomy." She wasn't dropping any hints about the plot, but did mention that she'll have to go back to being a redhead for the episode, which airs May 1.
Read on for the full transcript and Walsh's take on "Private Practice," the best kiss she's had and why she persists in torturing men with her "ridiculous hotness."
Liz: How was Capitol Hill today?
Kate Walsh: It was great. A great experience. I had never been to the Capitol, so that was exciting.
