Five "Lost" actors will make a rare local appearance — doing a Shakespearean scene — to help the Honolulu Theatre for Youth raise funds.

Henry Ian Cusick (Desmond), Michael Emerson (Ben), Jorge Garcia (Hurley), Daniel Dae Kim (Jin) and Elizabeth Mitchell (Juliet) are slated to do a brief, comedic scene from "A Midsummer Night's Dream," a fall production by HTY, at the benefit event Le Masquerade. The fundraiser, themed "The Dream," takes place from 6 to 10 p.m. Oct. 25 at the Ko'olau Grand Ballroom of the Ko'olau Golf Club in Kane'ohe. Tickets are $195; call 457-4255.

DUCHOVNY, WIFE SEPARATED

It appears David Duchovny's love life off screen is also going through some trouble.

The "Californication" star and his wife, actress Tea Leoni, have confirmed speculation that they've been separated for some time, report celebrity news sources.

"In light of continuous speculation over the lives and marriage of Tea Leoni and David Duchovny, the couple has confirmed that they have in fact been separated for several months," the statement released Wednesday says. "The couple had hoped to keep this separation private for the sake of their children."

The couple has been married since 1997. They have two children: daughter Madelaine, 9, and son Kyd, 6.

Duchovny, 48, voluntarily entered a rehab facility in August to be treated for sex addiction. He has since been released for successfully finishing treatment.

BONET PREGNANT WITH THIRD CHILD

Lisa Bonet, 40, who stars on the kooky time-travel cop show "Life on Mars," tells People magazine she is expecting her third baby.

"I'm seven months, and I feel great," Bonet says. "I've had a tremendous amount of energy, which is lucky, because I have a 14-month-old."

Bonet and former "Baywatch Hawai'i" star Jason Momoa already have a toddler, daughter Lola. They began dating about two years ago.

Bonet also has a 19-year-old daughter, Zoe Kravitz, with rocker Lenny Kravitz.

Bonet says she'd rather not find out in advance the sex of the baby.

"When my friends ask me, I say, 'I really don't know,' " she says. "I love the mystery and I trust the mystery about it. It adds a whole other component at the end."
