She’s the voice of Lois Griffin, the woman behind the MADtv character Ms. Swan, and this month she released her one-woman show DVD Drop Dead Gorgeous. She is, of course, Alex Borstein and to help promote her new DVD she put herself up for an interview with us.
Alex talks to us about comedy cocks, working with her husband, and Olympic gymnastics! Oh, and seeing as Seth recently revealed his top 5 Family Guy moments we thought we’d find out Alex’s list. To find out all this and more, go read Drop dead hilarious: the Alex Borstein interview over in our features section.

Last Tuesday Alex Borstein launched her new one-woman show DVD Drop Dead Gorgeous at the ACME comedy theatre in Los Angeles (where Alex started out). The party included special guests Adam Carolla and Seth MacFarlane among others. We’ve got some exclusive photos from the occasion (below) including one of Alex and Seth MacFarlance singing their famously filthy rendition of You Don’t Bring Me Flowers as Lois and Peter.
Drop Dead Gorgeous In a Down-to-Earth Bombshell Sort of Way is out now on DVD, a great Christmas gift for any fan of Family Guy or the wonderful Alex Borstein herself. You’ll find a clip of Alex in her stand-up act over at YouTube entitled Vagina Soap (also available via Alex’s MySpace). We posted some teaser trailers for the DVD earlier today featuring Ms. Swan.

A few new websites to draw to your attention. Firstly, to help promote the release of Family Guy Volume 4 on DVD next week (November 14th) part of the storyboard for North By North Quahog has been put online. Well worth a quick look.

There’s further online publicity for the new DVD with the launch of American Dad vs. Family Guy: Kung-Fu II Turbo! Hyper-mega edition. Yes, the hit online game is back with a second version, and this time with even more kick-ass action! You can even play as Ryu from the Street Fighter series in this version!

Finally, Alex Borstein, the voice of Lois Griffin, has now got her own MySpace. She wanted us to spread word of it here, so, mission complete!
