Lost's Sheila Kelley Would Like to Clear Up What She Knows -- And What She Doesn't

Whether or not she'd be sharing any screen time with those characters is something Kelley couldn't divulge, though she had nothing but good things to say about the scenes she's already played with Holloway. "I had a most wickedly wonderful time playing opposite Josh," she said, "and not only because he is very talented and committed actor but because he plays a mean guitar between takes and is most entertaining!"

Kelley is no stranger to series television, having played Gwen Taylor on L.A. Law for three years (she's also married to The West Wing star Richard Schiff). Still, her last TV gig before Lost was an unconventional one: Thanks to her side business creating pole dance exercise routines called "S Factor," Kelley was called on to coach Teri Hatcher through one for an episode of Desperate Housewives. I asked Kelley if she'd found any use for her expertise on Lost.

"What S Factor pole dancing gives a woman is a sense of body power and confidence like nothing I have ever done before," she said. "Zoe is a woman who lives fully in her body without apology or fear. She's a force to reckon with and S Factor gave me a taste of that kind force. I don't know...something happens when you hang upside down from a pole 14 feet off of the floor and slither down to the ground like a snake."

As for those glasses, the 30 Rock fan is happy about the inevitable comparison fans are making.

"The island's very own Tina Fey? Cool, so then maybe I could be Liz Lemon's evil twin sister Lily Lemon on 30 Rock! Or better yet, Tina Fey could come take one of my S Factor Pole Dance classes...and then Liz Lemon would do a hell of a lap dance which would seal the deal on her new non-beau, Wesley, or send him running back to Queen Elizabeth!"
