Hannigan is rich in love, life — but 'Mother' character isn't so lucky
By Donna Freydkin, USA TODAYNEW YORK



— She's a long way from band camp.


Alyson Hannigan, who went from music nerd to sex kitten in the 1999 comedy American Pie, is now hitched, both on screen and in real life.

On her CBS show, How I Met Your Mother
(Mondays, 8:30 p.m. ET/PT), she and husband Marshall (Jason Segel) are
having major money woes over his unemployment, her shopping addiction
and the money-pit apartment they bought.

"I love being a part of a healthy couple. I can
relate to that because I just adore my husband and our relationship.
It's so important to me," says Hannigan, 34, who has been married to
actor Alexis Denisof for four years.

In tonight's season finale, she says, "we deal
with Marshall and Lily's debt problem, and he sets up a website to sell
some of her clothes so they can pay the contractor to fix this
apartment, the worst mistake they ever made."



But the cliffhanger, she says, involves Ted (Josh Radnor).

Could it also involve Britney Spears' character,
Abby, who appeared for the second time in last week's episode? She
plays Barney's new girlfriend — who's really mad for Ted.

Hannigan says the singer, whose divorce,
breakdowns and custody battles have kept tabloids in business for the
past two years, is "lovely. She's so sweet and polite. She's quite shy.
We sort of bonded the last time and talked about dogs and clothes,
girlie things. And now, when she came this time, I had my puppy,
Oliver, with me, and she got to meet him. She bonded with Oliver, and
he gave her kisses."

She's welcome to come back anytime, Hannigan
says. "If you don't think of her as Britney Spears, she's just a very
nice, normal person. The second time, she felt even more comfortable
than the first because she knew what to expect from us and that we're
all nice.

"It's just when you leave the stage, the
security — there are helicopters flying over to get shots of her. The
first time, a helicopter followed her into work. This time, it was a
little more subdued."

That word basically sums up Hannigan's real life
in Los Angeles. She and Denisof are spending some time this summer on
the East Coast, visiting family, with Yorkie puppy Oliver in tow.

"My husband and I are just going to travel.
We're going to drive down to his dad's farm in Maryland. I've never
been there before, which is terrible — we've been together 8½ years!
I'm very excited."

So is Hannigan as much of a clotheshorse as Lily?

"Yeah, maybe. Yes. I wasn't always. In my mid-
to late 20s, I woke up and realized I was a woman and loved shoes and
bags and clothes. I'm shopping with a vengeance now," Hannigan says.

"We also have a philosophy that if you buy one
thing, you donate another. My husband will literally buy one T-shirt
and go home and find another T-shirt to donate to Goodwill. But I
accumulate and purge."

Alyson Hannigan - "How I Met Your Mother" Sitcom - She hates kissing Jason Segel

Former BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER star ALYSON HANNIGAN hates kissing TV husband JASON SEGEL - because he’s a smoker.

Segel went cold turkey after the actress told him how awful their intimate moments on U.S. sitcom How I Met Your Mother were - but he only managed to stay nicotine-free for a year.

And now his bad habit is worse than ever.

Hannigan says, "I cannot stand cigarette smoke, it’s like kissing an ashtray and he’s trying to be polite by having gum or mints, but it doesn’t help."

The actress thought she’d solved her co-star’s nicotine addiction when Segel started owing her small fortunes in smoking fines.

She explains, "When we started the pilot (for the show) he was like, ’Get me to stop smoking, I’ll be your best friend.’ So we did this bet where he would owe me $10 every time he had a cigarette. After the first day, he owed me $200.

"So he said, ’I’m just quitting,’ and he quit cold turkey for about a year. It was fantastic but then... he got stressed out and he started smoking again."

Don’t mess with Alyson Hannigan and her pickles! The pregnant How I Met Your Mother star has a special craving for the snack.


"If I bring the wrong ones home, she won’t touch ’em,"
said Hannigan’s husband, actor Alexis Denisof, last night at the Best
Friends Animal Society’s 15th Annual Lint Roller Party in Hollywood.
"It has to be the exact right ones. They’re the sweet, kosher pickles.
They can’t be the pepper, garlic or whatever—it has to be the right
one."


Denisof also revealed some baby names. Well, names they’ve already ruled out...


"Our plan is to each make a list and give it to the
other one, and then we kinda sleep with it for a while," Denisof said.
"We start eliminating names from each other’s list, and somehow we’ll
compile a master list."


And as far as the already eliminated names go, "She
ruled out Bruce, which I was opting for, and I also got overruled on
Dennis," he said.


With no mention of any female names, does that mean the
duo is having a boy? "We know the gender, but I don’t think I’m allowed
to say," Denisof said. "Alyson didn’t give a clearance."


As for Alyson, she is loving pregnancy. "I love
everything. I just feel great, and I can feel the baby move, and I’m
just over the moon!" she cooed.


Also at last night’s soiree were Jodie Sweetin, Rene Russo, Cloris Leachman and Emmy Rossum.

— Alyson Hannigan a répondu à quelques questions pour le site Assignment X et parle notamment de son rôle de Lily dans How I Met Your Mother, de son prochain rôle dans American Reunion, de son mari Alexis Denisof et de son futur bébé.
Ci-dessous, les passages concernant Buffy, son bébé et son mari.
Asssignment X: Willow, dans Buffy, était votre premier grand rôle et dura sept ans. Elle était souvent en couple, mais jamais définit par ces relations. Après ça, étiez-vous retenu pour des rôles où vous n’étiez pas reléguée au rôle de la « petite-copine » ?

Alyson Hannigan: Oui. Je pense que ça ne m’est jamais vraiment venu à l’esprit de dire « Oh, non je ne peux pas… » Parce que Lily (How I Met Your Mother) était la « petite-copine ». Mais elle avait sa propre voix et personnalité, et c’est ce que je recherche.

Asssignment X: Pour quand attendez-vous votre second bébé ?

Alyson Hannigan: L’été prochain.

Asssignment X: Votre mari, Alexis Denisof (Wesley dans Buffy), interprète le rôle de Benedick dans le film de Joss Whedon « Much Ado About Nothing »…

Alyson Hannigan: Oui, il est vraiment le littéraire de la famille et c’était très bien pour le film. En plus, on a pas de Baby-sitter, du coup, quand il travaillait, je pouvais être à la maison avec notre fille. J’étais très contente qu’il fasse ce film, et il s’est bien amusé. Ils ont fait ça « à l’arrache » dans la maison de Joss et c’était vraiment marrant. J’ai hâte de voir le résultat.

Aly Hannigan : Bien en fait, je m’y suis fait car j’ai déjà tourné l’épisode qui me la fait réalisé. On vient de terminer notre 150ème épisode avec How I Met, alors qu’il n’y en eu que 144 avec Buffy.

Aly Hannigan : C’est un peu bizarre. Je veux dire par là que c’est fantastique d’avoir pu être dans une première série qui a duré si longtemps, et une deuxième qui dure encore plus longtemps. Tout ce que je peux dire c’est « Merci, je vous en suis très très reconnaissante. »

Aly Hannigan : [rire] Et bien, j’ai entendu que l’idée était tombée à l’eau et que ça n’arrivera pas. Mais quand on dit Buffy, on pense Joss. Joss est Buffy d’après moi. Donc si ils annonçaient qu’un film allait sortir sans lui, bien je dirais que c’est tout simplement un film différent, ce ne serait pas Buffy. Ça serait totalement différent.

Aly Hannigan : Oui toujours, mais c’est plus équilibré maintenant. Après c’était tout le temps « Buffy par ci, Buffy par là ». Maintenant c’est plus partagé avec How I Met Your Mother et aussi avec American Pie.
