If you’ve read all the hype about the musical drama Smash and you think it’s another Glee, Katharine McPhee says think again.

The American Idol runner-up says the new series – which premieres on NBC Monday – is nothing like the FOX network hit.

“[I’m] not saying that one is better than the other…” she tells Celebuzz, “They’re just totally different shows.”

How 'Smash' Is Bringing Broadway To The Small Screen


Posted on Feb 03, 2012 @ 10:57AM - Add a comment

Two desperate and talented performers — Ivy (Megan Hilty), a Broadway veteran looking to move beyond the chorus line, and Karen (Katharine McPhee), a Midwestern girl stuck waiting tables — fight to star in a musical based on the life of Marilyn Monroe.

To get the lead role in the new musical drama Smash, they'll have to win over a writing duo that's out for one more hit (Debra Messing, Christian Borle), a producer in the midst of a messy divorce (Anjelica Huston) and a director (Jack Davenport) with an ego bigger than the Big Apple.

"I have always had an interest in theater," explains executive producer Steven Spielberg, "but it's that creative process — what goes on before the curtain even goes up — that really fascinated me."

The result is a behind-the-scenes look at musical theater with a few soulful show tunes for good measure (think: Glee meets The West Wing). And in a meta twist, the Marilyn production they're putting together on the show may one day be staged as a reallife Broadway musical.

From the Opening Night of the Metropolitan Opera to the sweltering hot streets of Los Angeles, stars were out and about on Monday showing off their fab and drab style.

Kerry Washington scored herself the best look of the day, hitting the opening night of Das Rheingold at the MET in a gorgeous Grecian style Marchesa gown, which featured purple embroidered detail.  The leading lady couldn’t have looked more sexy or sophisticated in the off-the-shoulder creation, which was perfectly hued for her skin tone.

Miley Cyrus showed a little too much skin for seventeen, trying to beat the record-breaking heat in Los Angeles.  Her bra-baring lace top, which she paired with uber-tiny cutoff jean shorts and cowboy boots was a little too racy for her underage status!

PHOTOS: Stars Who Are Too Sexy Too Young

Cameron Diaz looked Knight and Day divine at the Tokyo premiere of her film, jazzing up a modest Bottega Veneta turtleneck dress with snazzy and color-happy Jimmy Choo sandals, while Gemma Arterton kept in sexy and simple in a strapless black gown at the NYC screening of Tamara Drewe.

It was an action packed weekend on the red carpet, as stars got all dolled up in the hottest designer dresses for the most exclusive events across the world, but not everyone made the hot list!

Nicole Richie was perhaps the biggest disappointment of the weekend, hitting the Opening Gala and Unmasking of the Resnick Pavilion at LACMA in a truly over the top Marchesa gown! The fearless fashionista was drowning in the black and white tulle costume, which seemed like a totally out of character choice for the bohochic babe.
