Things are really looking up for Kate Walsh - first her own TV series, and now an engagement. The Grey's Anatomy star and her movie producer boyfriend Alex Young are reportedly engaged after only a few months of dating. "It happened a few days ago. And that's all I can say. I'm on cloud nine," says Walsh of the news.

Grey's star signs record deal

All kinds of spinoff careers are stemming from the hit show Grey's Anatomy. Actress Kate Walsh has landed her own series which will expand on her Grey's role of Addison Montgomery-Shepherd, and Sara Ramirez, who plays Callie, has signed an album deal. "All I can say is that Eric Idle and John Du Prez, who were the writers of Spamalot, are writing the album," Ramirez told press at the Step Up Inspiration Awards this weekend. Ramirez has inked a deal with Universal Music and will spend her summer hiatus from the show recording the album.

Grey's set still stressful

Grey's Anatomy actor T.R. Knight is counting down the days until this season of the show is wrapped. After a stressful year caused by costar Isaiah Washington's on-set gay slur, Knight says, "I just focus on doing the work. That's my job. That's what I'm paid for and I think that's enough... We have about twenty days [of filming] left, not that I'm counting... It's going to be nice to have two months away, you know. I think everyone's looking forward to it." I guess things didn't chill out on set after Washington's stay in "rehab."
