Well, last night Idina’s appearance at designer/Project Runway judge Michael Kors’ flagship Manhattan store drew quite the crowd for Fashion’s Night Out. So many people went, in fact, that not everyone could fit in the store! Wearing all Michael Kors’ fashions (and adding one of his Hamilton handbags to her ensemble at the end of the night to support the shopping holiday), Idina, accompanied by her pianist Rob, performed Evita-style from the second floor balcony to the packed store. She sang “Poker Face” with the help of the crowd, and the designer joined her for “Defying Gravity.”

There are a number of other videos on YouTube now, including “Poker Face.” Simply run a search for Idina’s recent uploads and you’ll find them!

Photos have been added to our gallery:

If you were lucky enough to attend and have photos you’d like to donate to the gallery, just zip them, upload them somewhere, and send me a link via the contact form and tell me how you’d like to be credited.

The Diggses? The Diggs? What is the plural of “Diggs” when it’s a name? I sure as heck am not going to throw an apostrophe in it…hmm….oh, sorry!

I don’t generally like dedicating a whole news update to photos taken by paparazzi, but these photos are really too cute to ignore. We haven’t seen new photos of Walker in several months and with his first birthday less than two weeks away, we finally get to see just how much he’s grown! Time sure does fly.

Taken yesterday at the Farmers’ Market in Los Angeles, the below photos are collected from gossip blog sites. Many of them are tagged with the source site’s logo; sorry about that. If I’m able to replace them with untagged or higher quality photos, I will.

PBS is conducting their Summer 2010 Television Critics Association Press Tour this evening, and Idina was asked to be a panelist to discuss her experience performing for the Obamas at the White House in July as part of In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration. There’s a chance that PBS may upload the session to their YouTube, but if not, at least attendees were nice enough to Tweet some quotes from her:

On getting the call to perform at the White House: “What a milestone in my life. gave myself a little pat on the back.”

On her Wicked audition: “When I left the audition I went hysterical crying because the role makes you open yourself up so much.”

On Glee: “Somehow, roundabout, Glee is helping people gain a respect for the theater and I’m fortunate to be part of both.”

About performing for President Obama: “I had cotton mouth. I perhaps spit on the President.”

And, of course, HQ photos!

In Performance at the White House: A Broadway Celebration will air on PBS affiliates October 20th. Check your local listings to confirm time and date when it nears.

Idina performed last night at Bethel, NY’s Center for the Arts (site of the legendary Woodstock Festival!). Several photos from her performance have been added to the gallery, thanks to a couple great fans. Simply click the thumbnails below to view them, and remember, if you ever have photos you’d like to share with us, just use the contact form to send me a link with them!

You can also read a new interview she did with the local newspaper about her summers at camp in the Catskills (and more!) by clicking here.

Check back tonight/tomorrow for photos from her concert this evening with the Boston Pops Esplanade Orchestra in Hyannis, MA. 15,000 people are expected to be in attendance. Yowza!

Last night, Idina performed at Vienna, VA’s Wolf Trap Foundation for the Performing Arts. She was accompanied by America’s Symphony, the National Symphony Orchestra, conducted by EGOT (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony)-winner Marvin Hamlisch. I’m proud to say that Wolf Trap’s official Twitter announced that more than 7,000 people were in attendance, smashing her previous record for ticket sales to a solo performance. Way to go, Idina!

Fans have sent in tons of beautiful photographs, so head over to our newly redesigned Photo Gallery (courtesy of Flor) and enjoy them!

Just a quick reminder that tonight’s your last chance to enter to win tickets to Idina’s October 12th performance in Red Bank, NJ. Read about the contest here. The winner will be announced tomorrow!
