Just a quick heads-up on a small event from this spring that we’d previously missed. According to Tricia Helfer’s official blog, Tricia and Battlestar Galactica co-star and best friend Katee Sackhoff attended the Indian Motorcycle California Store Launch on April 18. Where exactly the photos were taken we don’t know. Pics courtesy of Tricia’s official blog:

Just as we’d hoped, Tricia Helfer was at hand yesterday, April 24, at the 9th Annual Tribeca Film Festival Open House Premiere in New York City, looking nothing short of gorgeous in a strapless, silver mini. Open House-director Andrew Paquin and co-stars Rachel Blanchard and Brian Geraghty were also at the event to present and promote their new film. We’ve updated the gallery with our first 33 medium- and hi-res photos of Tricia at the event — as always, more will be added as we find them. Let’s hope Open House gets picked up for distribution!

What a pleasant surprise! Yesterday, March 20, Tricia Helfer attended the 24th Annual Genesis Awards in Beverly Hills, CA. Tricia looked simply lovely at the event in a black, belted cocktail dress and sleek ponytail; you can have a look for yourself by checking out our first 47 medium- and hi-res photos of Tricia’s red carpet and awards show appearance at our gallery. As always, we’ll keep our eyes peeled for more photos.

In the absence of fresher news, we instead have a lovely little update on last December’s 2nd Annual Fur Ball at the Skirball Kitten Rescue Fundraiser, which Tricia Helfer attended alongside husband Jonathan Marshall. The event was hosted by The Office-actress Jenna Fischer, and was also attended by Tricia’s Battlestar Galactica co-stars Tahmoh Penikett and Katee Sackhoff.

We’ve updated the gallery with 7 medium-res photos of Tricia and Jonathan at the event, courtesy of the Kitten Rescue Flickr photo stream. These are the first photos we’ve had from inside the event venue (and of Jonathan at the event), and particularly nice since there has been only a handful of photos available to us from this event to begin with. The pictures furthermore reveal that Tricia and Jonathan purchased the $1,250 “Angel Table” for the event.

Finally, please consider making a donation to Kitten Rescue, the Los Angeles-based no-kill animal shelter and one of Tricia’s dearest animal charities:

Kitten Rescue spends nearly $300,000 a year on its cats and rescue programs. Most of this money comes from the generosity of private donors like you. Whether you are visiting us from just around the corner or from across several continents, you can touch the lives of the many deserving, wonderful animals in our care.

At last, some news, and some great news at that! TrueBlood-Online.com reports the upcoming Andrew Paquin-directed horror thriller Open House, in which Tricia Helfer stars as Lila opposite Rachel Blanchard and Brian Geraghty, will be screening at the 9th Annual Tribeca Film Festival in New York. This year’s festival runs April 21-May 2. Report from TrueBlood-Online.com:

The film Open House, has been accepted to the ninth annual Tribeca Film Festival which will take place in New York City from April 21 to May 2, 2010.

As we have previously reported, Open House is a film starring Tricia Helfer, Rachel Blanchard and Brian Geraghty and is Andrew Paquin’s directorial debut. True Blood’s Stephen Moyer and Anna Paquin (Andrew is Anna’s brother) will make a cameo appearance playing the characters Jennie and Josh. The horror/thriller movie, shot in Los Angeles, tells the story of a wealthy couple in a strained marriage that hosts an open house in order to sell their palatial home. They are horrified to find out days later that one potential buyer never left their house.

As of yet, we don’t know whether or not Tricia is planning to attend the event, but we should be no means rule out the possibility of her doing so. We’ll be sure to post more information on the film, its festival screening and ticket sales as it becomes available to us. This is good news, though; hopefully this means we’ll soon get a first look of some kind of Tricia in the film!

Surprise! Yesterday, January 16 Tricia Helfer made her first appearance of the year by showing up to support best friend and Battlestar Galactica co-star Katee Sackhoff as she hosted the ‘24′ New Season Celebration in Las Vegas, NV. Tricia and Katee both looked nothing short of gorgeous at the event in their sparkly, sequined cocktail dresses. The gallery has been updated with our first 19 30 medium-res photos of Tricia (and Katee) at the event. As always, we’ll be adding more photos as we find them. Enjoy!

We’re back! And we come bringing some new goodies as well. Today (and throughout this Fall), we’ve updated the gallery with 250+ new medium- and hi-res photos of Tricia Helfer at various public events 2005-2009 + replaced some 50-60 small images with better quality ones. Since this is quite a mix of new and updated photos/albums, we’ve listed all updated albums below using the following labeling:

(N) – new additions; (R) – better quality replacements; (NA) – new album

If I could make a suggestion or two three, I’d particularly advise you to check out the fantastic hi-res additions we made to our 2009 Monte Carlo Television Festival Day 5-album, which now features some absolutely adorable(!) photos of Tricia and hubby Jonathan Marshall at the event. Also, the ‘Battlestar Galactica’ Mid-Season Finale Celebration-album from June 2008, featuring some really awesome footage of Tricia and BSG co-stars Katee Sackhoff and Mary McDonnell, has been updated with a ton of better quality replacements to those earlier minimal pics — highly recommend you have a look. Finally, there’s this, this and many other great new photos of the BSG team at last year’s Sci Fi Channel Upfront Party.

But really, those are just the highlights. There are a lot more gems among the rest of the new photos as well. Anyway, without further ado, enjoy!

Since we didn’t want to crowd our original Video Game Awards update with videos, here’s a separate update of online video clips of Tricia Helfer at last Saturday’s 2009 Spike TV Video Game Awards, from which we’ve also been uploading new pictures throughout the weekend. We’ll be updating this post with more clips from this event if and when we find them.

As most of you will know, Tricia was not only nominated for the VG award for Best Performance by a Human Female for her portrayal of Dare in the Halo 3: ODST video game, she also presented at the event a teaser trailer for the upcoming Halo: Reach VG. Unfortunately, Tricia lost the VG award to actress Megan Fox for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.

First up, we have a red carpet video interview with Tricia from MaximoTV.com:

Here’s a video clip of Tricia onstage presenting the Halo: Reach preview from InsomniacGamerZ.net:

As reported earlier, Tricia Helfer appeared as planned at yesterday’s 2009 Spike TV Video Game Awards, held in Los Angeles, CA. As promised, here’s our coverage of her appearance at the event.

As per usual, Tricia looked absolutely stunning(!!) at the event, this time in a peach strapless mini and updo. As most of you will know, Tricia was up for the VG Award for Best Performance by a Human Female for her portrayal of Dare in the Halo 3: ODST video game. She furthermore presented on her own a Halo: Reach teaser trailer at the event. Unfortunately, the winning act in the Human Female category turned out to be Megan Fox in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. Bummer.

Onto our gallery update. We’ve just uploaded to our gallery our first 57 medium- and hi-res photos of a lovely Tricia at the event. As always, we’ll be sure to add more medium- and hi-res pictures as well as video footage from the event as we find them. Be sure to check back with us for updates!
