★ Last weekend, Justin was in his home state of Ohio. Fans took photos with him in his hometown (Springfield) and also in Yellow Springs at Young’s Jersey Dairy. Check out some of the the fan photos below (click on the thumbnails to see in full size at the source).
FYI, Young’s made a Facebook post about Justin’s visit and that was picked up by local news sources. 😂
★ With the Fall TV premieres starting soon, previews are starting to come out. This is TV Guide’s recap and preview for Grey’s Anatomy.

★ The Hollywood Reporter posted an article that included interviews with actors Caterina Scorsone (Amelia Shepherd) and Giacomo Gianniotti (Andrew DeLuca). Below are the parts that refer to Alex’s storyline, but the full article can be read at the link.
Overall, season 13 will focus on the show’s original stars — Meredith, Alex, Bailey (Chandra Wilson) and Richard (James Pickens Jr.), who all just inked new deals to return to the veteran drama.
“There is going to be a lot of checking in with the original cast; we love them so much and there has been such a renaissance with the show that it’s nice to focus on the core pieces that have been there since the very beginning,” Scorsone says, referring to the unlikely accomplishment that a show in its 13th season would be back on top at the network.
(…) For Alex, Jo and Andrew, meanwhile, season 13 will begin with the wake of Alex’s beat-down of Andrew and Jo’s decision about whether or not to tell her boyfriend that she’s already married.
“Jo has got to decide whether she wants to use this opportunity to finally come clean to Alex about her past or if it’s just too great and she’ll keep burying the secret. But if she chooses to bury the secret, she chooses to lose Alex,” Gianniotti says.
Andrew, however, will have a more central role with Alex this season than ever after the brutal beating. “Because Alex misinterpreted the situation and beat DeLuca so badly, he’s going to have a lot of legal consequences to deal with,” he says.
The actor, promoted to series regular last season, hopes to see Andrew taken a bit more seriously by his peers as he looks to figure out his specialty in season 13. Naturally, that could bring him closer to Alex as Grey’s looks to up the drama between the duo.
“He’s a natural in pediatrics, even though he didn’t really like to do it,” Gianniotti says. “Alex and Andrew relate a lot together and last season was building toward DeLuca being inducted into working with pediatrics. With all the things that have happened with DeLuca and Alex and creating a workspace where the two of them are working together, that could be very tense after what’s happened.”

★ TV Guide published an interview with Kelly McCreary (Dr. Maggie Pierce) where she talks about season 13 of Grey’s Anatomy focusing on the remaining original characters. Below are the excerpts related to Justin’s character, Alex Karev.
Kelly McCreary, who joined the cast in Season 11 as Meredith’s (Ellen Pompeo) half-sister Maggie, tells TVGuide.com that creator Shonda Rhimes plans to take deep dives into the characters of Meredith, Alex (Justin Chambers), Bailey (Chandra Wilson) and Richard Webber (James Pickens Jr.) in the upcoming season.
“After such a long period of time and so many new people coming in and out, they remain the foundational characters of the show,” McCreary says. “We’re gonna be spending some more time with them to check in with where they are. The way that we spent time with Meredith last season, exploring the major shift in her life, the loss of Derek, I think we can expect to see those doctors being explored where they are in this moment, all these years later, the changes that they’ve gone through.”
(…) It’s a safe bet that Alex’s Season 13 storyline will revolve around the fallout from Jo’s (Camilla Luddington) revelation that she’s already married and has been living under an alias to hide from her abusive husband — not to mention that beatdown we saw Alex giving DeLuca (Giacomo Gianniotti) in the Season 12 finale.
(…) “One of the things I’m looking forward to most is the focus on … those old, established relationships and those characters,” McCreary says. “Those characters are so rich and they have so much meaning for our audience. I think it’ll be wonderful to spend some more time with them.”
★ This Friday was the table read for Grey’s episode 13.03, and creator/producer Shonda Rhimes posted this photo of Justin and his co-star, Giacomo Gianniotti.

★ As some of you may recall, a while back there was an issue with an Instagram account going around claiming it was Justin’s new account (I posted about it here and here).
Well, Justin’s Instagram account (instagram.com/officialjustinchambers) now displays the verified badge (blue check in the profile) that authenticates the account.
Hopefully, that discourages people from impersonating him and avoids Instagram users being duped.
★ I’ll have to sort through the video archive soon, but for now I posted on Twitter (@JChambersOnline) a couple of 1999 TV commercials for ‘Calvin Klein Contradiction’ that Justin was the face of.
