'Nip/Tuck' is seemingly coming back with all guns firing.  The fears of Joely Richardson's departure were assuaged yesterday, and today they've landed Lindsay Bluth Funke herself, Portia de Rossi.  Ellen's beautiful, blonde companion will have a recurring role on the film as a intense mother who wants her daughter to have plastic surgery.  Portia de Rossi's sort of snotty, hot, charm is perfect for the seedy, rich world of 'Nip/Tuck' especially with the change of setting to the glitz and glamour of L.A.  It's interesting that Rossi will take on a recurring role, as these high-caliber cameos are usually one show little blips to draw more fans to the pretty great little show.
