The Closer’s Kyra Sedgwick enjoyed an in depth conversation about Conan’s hair and the remake of Shaft during an appearance on The Tonight Show Monday.

Kyra, who is already a Golden Globe winner, is up for a Best Actress Emmy for her role on the TNT series.

The Gossip Girl star has landed the role of Ren McCormack after High School Musical star Zac Efron pulled out of the project earlier this year. Chace is undergoing grueling singing and dancing lessons to prepare for filming, which begins next year.

“It’s that Chace Crawford guy, right?” The Closer actress said in an interview with PEOPLE over the weekend. “We’re thrilled! [Daughter] Sosie is a big fan.”

“We met him at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner. Kevin and he had a chat. He’s very sweet. He has big shoes to fill!”

In the original 1984 film, big city boy Ren moves to a small town where rock music and dancing has been outlawed by a local minister. Ren decides to get the laws changed and falls in love with preacher’s daughter Ariel in the process.

After 30 years as an actress, Emmy-winning actress Kyra Sedgwick will be honored with the 2,384th star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next week.

The Closer star — who made her professional acting debut at the age of 16 on the soap Another World — will unveil her star at 6356 Hollywood Boulevard, next to husband Kevin Bacon’s star, on Monday, June 8.

Kevin Bacon wasn’t “footloose” enough to catch a thief. The Friday The 13th star is in the market for a new phone after his Blackberry was swiped by a creep thief in a New York City subway station last week.

According to The New York Post’s Page Six Column, Kevin’s BlackBerry was stolen at the 53rd Street and Seventh Avenue Station — serving the B, D and E Lines — in Manhattan at 10:50 AM on Thursday.

According to spies for the tab, the actor — who was traveling with his band The Bacon Brothers –reportedly chased down the thief but lost him in the crowded station.

The culprit is still at large.

The isn’t first time Kevin has been robbed blind, earlier this year, Kevin and wife Kyra Sedgwick were revealed to be among the hundreds of people hit by The Bernie Madoff Ponzi Scheme.

Kevin Bacon and wife Kyra Sedgwick are the latest Hollywood celebs embroiled in former Wall Street financier Bernard Madoff’s $50 billion Ponzi scheme.

On Tuesday, a rep for the Footloose star and his Golden Globe-winning wife confirmed to New York Magazine that the couple lost money with Madoff, but declined to put a dollar figure on how big a hit Kev and Kyra took. (We hope they didn’t lose much!)

“Unfortunately your report is true. I can confirm that they had investments with Mr. Madoff.”
