Claire Danes is probably pining for the days she had to worry about stalkers, now that she's stalking out corporate payouts! She recently shilled for an eyelash enhancement product called Latisse (brought to you by the Botox folk), and tomorrow she'll be giving painting demos in Grand Central Terminal! Or something. According to a press release we received, this is to celebrate the launch of Valspar Paint’s new Hi-DEF Advanced Color System. Get there tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. to check out the actress formerly known as Angela Chase paint walls. (Speaking of which, it was Chase who once said, “I bet people can actually die of embarrassment. I bet it’s been medically proven.") To be fair, tomorrow's event is also to benefit art advocacy non-profit United States Artists (though this doesn't mean Danes isn't getting paid). Still, Daria would never pull this shit.
