It may be called Grey Gardens, but HBO’s upcoming film based on the classic 1970s documentary is anything but grey.

E! got an exclusive first look at the colorful one-sheet featuring Drew Barrymore as real-life Little Edie Beale and Jessica Lange as her mother, Big Edie circa 1973. The Beales, who were relatives of Jackie Onassis, made headlines when they were discovered living as recluses in a decrepit East Hampton, NY mansion.

Barrymore ages from 18 to 61 in the film, while Lange’s years span from 38 to 77.

Lange’s prosthetics alone included a fake forehead, eyebrows, jowls, sagging neck, new nose, mouth, teeth and even earlobes!

For Big Edie’s later years, Lange was outfitted with sagging breasts made from birdseed, when rice and more traditional fat suits failed to do the trick.

Barrymore’s 42 costume changes go from glamorous 1930s couture to Little Edie’s signature look, featuring an imaginative use of scarves, skirts and tablecloths that were usually accessorized by a gold brooch.

Kenley Collins, the talented yet whiny designer whom Project Runway fans loved to loathe, spent Tuesday night in a New York jail after allegedly attacking her former fiancé with her cat.

The 26-year-old was released this morning after being booked on suspicion of assault, menacing, harassment and criminal possession of a weapon, according to the police report.

Per the legal documents, Collins woke up live-in ex Zak Penley at about 7 a.m. Tuesday by throwing their cat at his face. When he tried to leave the room, she slammed the bedroom door on his head.

Collins then, per the report, hoisted Penley’s laptop in the air and shouted, “I’ll do it!” before hurling it at him. After tossing a bushel of apples and a glass of water in his put-upon punim, she then hissed, “You’re lucky, it could have been worse.”

Penley at some point called the cops, who upon arrival noted that Penley has suffered substantial pain and swelling to the face, feared further injury and was “alarmed and annoyed.”

Collins was arrested and taken into custody later that morning. The police report does not indicate which makeshift projectile earned her the weapon possession charge.

Eddie Cibrian is fighting back against a report that claims he’s having an affair with co-star LeAnn Rimes.

“It is a fabricated story that is using random snapshots as connective tissue to create a scandalous relationship,” Cibrian says in a statement first obtained by Access Hollywood.

A Rimes friend tells PEOPLE the country star, 26, and Cibrian, 35 – who is married to model Brandi Glanville and has two sons, Mason, 5, and Jake, almost 2 – are not in a relationship. “There are some feelings there but it’s too early to tell if it’s going to develop and if she’s done with her marriage,” says the pal.

While it’s unclear how the allegations will affect Rimes’s seven-year marriage to songwriter Dean Sheremet, the couple have definitely hit a rough patch, Rimes’s friend confirms.

“[LeAnn and Dean] are figuring it out,” says the friend. “They have a lot of mutual respect for one another.”

“The situation that she’s grappling with right now is not the cause for her marriage troubles,” the friend continues. “There have been issues brewing for months prior to meeting Eddie on set.”

One of those issues: getting married at such a young age (Rimes was still a teenager when she and Sheremet tied the knot). “Like any marriage, they’ve had a couple of rough patches. They’ve gone to therapy,” says the friend. “But they did marry very young and when people marry young it’s very difficult to maintain a marriage for the long haul.”

After spending the first half of March apart – Rimes has been in L.A. doing voiceovers for her Lifetime movie Nora Roberts’ Northern Lights, while Sheremet, 28, has been working as a songwriter in Nashville – the couple spent time together in Washington, D.C. on March 11 where they lobbied House and Senate members on behalf of a new bill to increase funding for psoriasis research (Rimes has suffered from the skin condition since the age of 2). Rimes and Sheremet are both currently in New York City, where she is promoting her TV movie.

Rimes met Cibrian on the set of Northern Lights, which filmed in Calgary last November and December and co-stars Rosanna Arquette. It airs on March 21.

Cibrian and Rimes play love interests – he’s a former Baltimore cop who moves to a remote Alaskan town and falls for Rimes’s character, a feisty bush pilot, when he investigates her father’s death.
