Sherri Shepherd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck: Your Sandbox or Mine?

sweatpantsmom — Fri, 29 May 2009 23:05:00 GMT

View co-stars Sherri Shepherd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck may lock horns on the show, but apparently when the cameras stop rolling the two bond over swingsets and juice boxes. "She calls me all the time. We have playdates!" Sherri tells In Touch about her bond with co-star Elisabeth.

In fact, Sherri says her son Jeffrey, 4, has a crush on Elisabeth's daughter Gracie, also 4. "Jeffrey likes to kiss Gracie...he's like, 'Give me that cheek! Let me kiss you!"

Two View co-stars getting along? There's hope for peace in the Middle East yet.

Barbara Walters To Interview John Edwards' Mistress Rielle Hunter!?

Josh loposer — Thu, 21 May 2009 21:00:00 GMT

John Edwards' mistress has remained silent throughout months of wild speculation (supposedly because John was paying her to) and even a little trash talking from Elizabeth Edwards. Finally, word has it that Rielle is ready to tell Barbara Walters all about it...

"WORLDWIDE ENQUIRER EXCLUSIVE: John Edwards’ mistress Rielle Hunter has agreed to sit down for a bombshell interview with ABC News Barbara Walters, the ENQUIRER has learned exclusively.

“Rielle will break her silence for the first time with Barbara Walters. The interview will air on ABC in June,” a source told The ENQUIRER.

“Rielle is so angry with Elizabeth Edwards for trashing her repeatedly while promoting her book that she’s decided to break from John. She’s going to defend herself and tell her side of the story!”

As crazy and damaging as the affair was to the Edwards family, the aftermath has been even weirder. First, the lying by John Edwards, then the lovechild. Then, we get Elizabeth Edwards saying that she is standing by him and making Rielle out to be the monster.

Still, if Elizabeth wanted this to go away, would she have slammed Rielle in her book and called her "pathetic?" This interview (if it's not a complete hoax) has the potential to be really embarrassing for John Edwards.

If she reveals that he's been supporting her financially, he's going to get a major black eye. Rielle is reportedly demanding that John take a DNA test to confirm that he's the father. He is refusing ... I wonder why? If it turns out that he's the father, Hunter wants 1/4 of his estate (which comes out to $10M).

The Tori & Dean Movie: God Help Us All!

Josh loposer — Fri, 17 Apr 2009 17:30:00 GMT

That's right, some producers at Oxygen actually think that Tori Spelling and Dean McDermott's 3 years of marraige is worthy of not only a reality show, but a made-for-TV movie as well.

Seriously, do people want to watch a romantic comedy based on their marriage? Seems like season three of Home Sweet Hollywood is more than enough Tori and Dean, but who knows?

Is there really enough story to work with? They must plan on getting a lot of mileage out of Dean leaving his wife to be with Tori. And then there's the whole Candy Spelling debacle ... but then what?

Sure, they've had two kids together, Liam and Stella, but they're not really old enough to get into any serious trouble that would make for an interesting movie. Oh wait, this is a made-for-TV movie on Oxygen -- guess the bar isn't set all that high.

I'm guessing that Tori will play herself, but who will they get to play her mother? They're not exactly on the best of terms right now, both blaming each other for their estrangement. I'm going to go ahead and nominate Barbara Walters.

Ladies On 'The View' Try To Make Tori Apologize To Her Mother (Video)

Josh loposer — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 18:30:00 GMT

Now that Tori Spelling has released a book about about parenting called Mommywood, the drama surrounding she and her mother Candy's falling out is really ratcheting up a notch. During Tori's appearance on The View yesterday, both Barbara and Joy got all up in up in her bidness about reaching out to mommy (video after the jump).

Whoa, if the ladies on The View can't solve it in the course of a 7 minute interview, it must be a really serious problem.

While they may be right in a lot of ways, it really just looked like Babs and Joy are bullying Tori in order to get some kind of ratings-boosting online reconciliation going, and Tori's just not having any of it.

I've got to say, I'm kinda impressed with the way Tori stuck to her guns -- even when the crew started laying on the guilt trip about how the "feud" was hurting her children Liam and Stella's relationship with their grandmother.

Did they really expect to break Tori down and have a Kumbaya session on the show? I'm kinda thinking that they did. Hopefully, Tori and Candy will one day bury the hatchet, but apparently the hard sell didn't work.

Elisabeth Hasselback Is Ready To Go

trix — Wed, 01 Apr 2009 17:32:00 GMT

Elsabeth Hasselbeck is expecting her third baby in August and has everything ready, so to speak.

She says the only thing she and her husband have to do is buy diapers, in August. She should really buy the diapers in July, since who knows, the baby could come early and she needs to be ready.

She has explained what is going on, to her daughter and son, and says that her 16 month old son Taylor has no idea what's going on, but Grace, who is 3 1/2, is super excited.

It must be nice to have everything done and not have to worry about for the rest of the pregnancy.

If you have more than one, how did your older child react when the second, or third one arrived?

Womb With a 'View': Elisabeth Hasselbeck is Pregnant

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 29 Jan 2009 19:05:00 GMT

The View co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck announced on this morning's show that she is expecting her third child. "I'm pregnant again!” she said. "I'm due in August. I'll try to pop this one out before we leave [on summer hiatus], Barbara."

Hasselbeck and her husband Tim are already parents to daughter Grace, 3, and son Taylor Thomas, 14 months.

"We were thoroughly happy with the surprise of it," she said. "I didn't even know for two months." The conservative Hasselbeck, who often spars with her liberal co-hosts, says she mistakenly thought she was just tired from the excitement surrounding the election, but "No – I was knocked up and didn’t realize it!"

Congratulations Elisabeth! If it's a boy, how about naming it Barack?

Remember The Pregnant Man? He's Knocked Up Again!

HerBadMother — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 17:41:00 GMT

So. Remember that guy, Thomas Beattie? You know, the one who used to be a woman but then became a guy but kept some of his woman parts so that he could bear children? Which he did? Well, he's pregnant again.

That's what he told Barbara Walters, anyway. Babs said on The View today that she was chatting him up in a 20/20 interview (airing this Friday) and got this 'weird' feeling that led her to ask him if he was pregnant again. He said yes.

Which, congrats? I mean, a wanted pregnancy is always something to celebrate, but seriously - he just gave birth a few months ago. I gave birth before he did and the very thought of another pregnancy makes me clamp my legs together. To each his (her?) own, I suppose.

The View Gets Presidential for Halloween

Karl Erikson — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 16:02:00 GMT

I can't imagine how boring "The View" is going to be in a week, when there's nothing more to say about politics. At least for another 6 months, when they start campaigning for 2012. I love watching the Hot Topics on The View. It's like political mud wrestling every day. This time next week it's gonna be Snore Central.

For Halloween on Friday, the girls at The View are dressing up as former Presidents of the United States. No, not the music group...actual presidents. Here's a preview photo - because you know they film the special shows ahead of time.

Whoopi Goldberg is Franklin D. Roosevelt, Joy Behar as Theodore Roosevelt, Sherri Shepard dresses as Abraham Lincoln, Elisabeth Hasselbeck as Ronald Reagan, and Barbara Walters as George Washington.

Who are YOU dressing up as for Halloween?

The View Feud: Who Goes? Joy Behar Or Elisabeth Hasselbeck?

Sassy Smith — Thu, 30 Oct 2008 12:02:00 GMT

Feud on The View! Been there, done that right? This time it's Joy Behar and Elisabeth Hasselbeck that are at odds and apparently the tension between the two is unbearable. So, one of them will have to go - who will it be?

According to the Chicago Sun-Times, Joy and Elisabeth aren't on speaking terms after the cameras stop rolling. They're reportedly having backstage screaming matches that are escalating. Why? What else - their very different political views concerning the upcoming election have the women furious with each other.

And Elisabeth is apparently peeved that Joy pulled out a crap green coat just like the one she wore when she introduced Sarah Palin at last weekend's rally. Seriously, both of you should be ashamed to wear that color green!

Obama loving Joy jokingly said that it doesn't matter if Sarah Palin spends a whopping $150,000 on her wardrobe because, "Elisabeth spends that much in a month!" Oh snap.

Elisabeth doesn't take kindly to the "jokes," and has even complained to Barbara Walters and the producers.

Can these two put their differences behind them (and quit acting like children) and move on or will one of them pack up and leave? Who should go? Joy or Elisabeth?

READER POLL: Should Elisabeth Hasselbeck Quit The View?

Elisabeth Hasselbeck Opens for Sarah Palin

Karl Erikson — Mon, 27 Oct 2008 16:01:00 GMT

Conservative Elisabeth Hasselbeck of "The View" came down to my neck of the woods this weekend and campaigned with Sarah Palin. The mother of two - Grace Elisabeth, 3, and Taylor Thomas, 2 - opened up for Palin in several cities in Florida. For once, she talks without getting interrupted. You can see the video here where she talks about equal pay for women, energy policy, and Sarah Palin's $150,000 wardrobe. She calls everyone fixating on the wardrobe "sexist."

That's crap. I'd be angry if ANY of the candidates used campaign money to buy $150,000 in clothing. It has nothing to do with gender. It has to do with hockey mom Sarah Palin trying to relate to Joe the Plumber, but spending $150,000 on clothes. That's more money than I'll spend my entire LIFE on clothing. Doesn't matter that she's donating those clothes to charity. It's the fact that she bought all those clothes from Neiman Marcus instead of Sears or Macys.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck's "Great Ameri(Mc)Cain Hero" Shirt Irks Viewers

Sassy Smith — Sat, 25 Oct 2008 13:38:00 GMT

The View's co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck sure gets viewers all riled up! The celebrity mama wore a tee-shirt on air last week, that endorsed John McCain across her front (well not like we don't know who she's voting for anyway). The shirt read, "Great Ameri(Mc)Cain Hero," and reportedly, some of the TV audience were none too happy about it.

Video after the jump!

Barbara Walters said that because of Elisabeth wearing the shirt, the show got "e-mails and calls with people complaining."

Elisabeth rolled her eyes and said, "Well, they must all be voting for Obama."

Babs apparently didn't like that response and countered with, "It's one thing to wear it during Hot Topics but then when you're interviewing celebrities...." (meaning bad move I guess?). She asked if it then becomes "an advertisement?"

Hasselbeck, always passionate about team McCain, said, "I designed the shirt. I sent it to the campaign!... That's who my heart is for."

What do you think? Should she have not worn it at all? Or just during Hot Topics? Or was it okay for her to wear it during the whole show?

The View's co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck sure brings out strong emotions in people. It seems you either love her or hate her. It was rumored that she leaving the daytime talk show and heading to Fox, but she's put those rumors to bed. On a recent show, when prompted by Joy Behar, Elisabeth said, "I'm not leaving The View. I certainly love my ladies. I'm not going anywhere." What do you think? Is it time for her to move on to a place where she can rant and rave her views or is it fun listening to her?

It's Official: Peter Cook is Still An A**hole

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 22:05:00 GMT

You've got to hand it to Peter Cook. Just when you thought he had sunk to his lowest by having an affair with a teenager that broke up his marriage to Christie Brinkley, he tops himself by going on national TV and blaming the affair on...Christie Brinkley.

In an interview with Barbara Walters on 20/20 that will air Friday, Cook says, "I was seeking a connection I could not find in my own marriage. I think the emotional aspect of our lives had changed. I think we were both feeling more like we were living with a brother and sister than a life partner... I think I just suddenly realized when I was getting attention from someone else that this is something that is missing in my life. Nothing like getting sex from your 19-year-old hot assistant to make you realize what is missing in your life!

Unfortunately he continues on trying to gain our sympathy. "Just the tremendous amount of work I was putting into my family... my world became her world," he went on. "It had to be that way... there came a time when I pulled up the driveway to the home that I found, that I built, that I lived in, and I felt like I was a guest in someone else's life."

In a tersely worded statement Brinkley's attorney responded to news of the interview. "It is a measure of Peter Cook's character that he has breached the confidentiality agreement that is in the divorce settlement and has sought to present this distorted one sided view of his marriage.

"Mr. Cook had his days in court, testified on his own behalf and ultimately agreed with the view of the children’s court appointed attorney and psychiatrist that the children should live principally with their mother and that she should be the sole custodial parent."

Video: Sherri Sheperd Gives It To Elisabeth Hasselbeck!

Sassy Smith — Thu, 09 Oct 2008 12:38:00 GMT

Elisabeth Hasselbeck had her opportunity to explain herself the other day on The View, but she blew that. On Monday's show, there was more ranting from Elisabeth about Sen. Obama being a terrorist (ridiculous!) and then she called Rev. Wright a "hate monger," and for once, Sherri Sheperd wasn't taking it....

Video after the jump!

Hasselbeck is constantly bringing up Obama's "past," yet if anyone brings up anything about McCain, she makes excuses for him.

Listen, I don't care who votes which way - and I don't care that Elisabeth is a McCain lover, it's the fact that she can't see any other point of view. It's all black and white to her, with no grey areas. She's so tunnel-visioned, it's maddening.

Anyway, watch the clip - at the end Babs tries to calm it down (it became like a school yard, grade 7 fight) and Elisabeth just keeps on yacking....*rolling my eyes*

Howard Stern and Beth Ostrosky Got Hitched Last Night (Video)

sweatpantsmom — Sat, 04 Oct 2008 13:05:00 GMT

It's official: Howard Stern got married to longtime girlfriend Beth Ostrosky last night. The A-list private event took place at New York's famed Le Cirque restaurant. Either my invitation got lost in the mail or Le Cirque never forgave me for the whole silverware-stealing misunderstanding.

Kelly Ripa and husband Mark Consuelos were among the guests and Consuelos, who became an ordained minister over the summer, performed the ceremony.

Jimmy Kimmel, Sarah Silverman, Adam Carolla, Barbara Walters, Billy Joel and wife Katie Lee, Joan Rivers, Stern's radio cohosts Robin Quivers and Artie Lang, Chevy Chase, Donald and Melania Trump and John Stamos were among the 180 guests that attended.

No word on whether any of Stern's children attended; he has three daughters with ex-wife Allison, whom he was married to for 20 years.

This doesn't appear to be a prank like the one he pulled in 2006, when he announced that he and Ostrosky had gotten married only to admit later that it wasn't true. If it is a prank, I totally want my toaster back that I sent them as a gift.

Here's a video of Stern and Ostrosky's celeb friends arriving for the wedding:

Elisabeth: "Yes, I do!"

Babs: "Tell us now why you think that Sarah Palin would make a very good President (since she might one day be "a heartbeat" anyway)."

Elisabeth Hasselbeck Not Leaving The View

Karl Erikson — Fri, 03 Oct 2008 11:42:00 GMT

Rumors have been flying fast and furious about Elisabeth Hasselbeck leaving "The View." Supposedly, she was eyeing a host position at Fox News, where she has appeared several times in the last year. The only strongly conservative part of "The View," I worried about Elisabeth leaving. I actually enjoy those first 20 minutes of the show...in fact, I think the Hot Topics on "The View" is some of the best television out there, but that's only if they keep a diverse panel.

Well, no worries. The rumors are false. Elisabeth's agent said, "While Elisabeth has a great relationship with Fox News, there is absolutely no truth to the rumor that she is leaving 'The View.' Elisabeth is passionate in her beliefs and enjoys being a part of this dynamic group of women and engaging in daily conversations."

The publicity director for "The View" said: "Barbara Walters and Bill Geddie, executive producers of 'The View,' consider Elisabeth to be vital to the program."

Sure, it gets heated when they talk politics on the show, but that's what I love about it. I'd really hate to see Elisabeth leave. Glad to hear it's not true.

Guess who is coming to NBC prime time come November? OK, the headline gave it away. Rosie O'Donnell has a deal with the Peacock network for a Thanksgiving special, says Michael Ausiello. It's going to be an hour variety show, possibly a pilot for a series, and it'll be called "The Man Show." What? That's been done? Oh, sorry, it'll be called "Rosie's Variety Hour."

Rosie described the show: "Old time variety, live from New York with a nod to Ed Sullivan, Carol Burnett, and memories of Sonny and Cher." I hear she's going to do lots of giveaways, too, just like on her old show. This time she'll be giving out complimentary barf bags.

Can't wait.

Yesterday Bill was on "The View" and the host of "Real Time" on HBO held nothing back when the inevitable came up...Sarah Palin.

He said, "I've seen her try to speak...twice...and the 'sentence to nowhere' is what comes out of her mouth." He also calls Palin a "bimbo" and a "moron."

See for yourself. There's a lot of stuff in this clip, just over two minutes.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck is reportedly fed up with the women of The View and wants out! She's got a seat waiting for her at Fox News....

According to a National Enquirer source, "Elisabeth feels she can't win at The View, but she's been told by friends at Fox News that they'd find a spot for her without hesitation."

The insider adds that the mom of two feels like she can't win. "Elisabeth is just as tired of the ladies at The View as they are of her! She feels she constantly has to defend herself."

Apparently Hasselbeck has been offered an anchor position at the Fox network and she is giving it serious consideration.

"Besides that, when she gets passionate about her opinions, the others make her look like she's hysterical. But when she doesn't talk enough, she's accused of 'pouting.'"

So will Elisabeth bail on The View? Time will tell!

The snitch says, "They love Elisabeth at Fox - she gets high ratings whenever she appears on the network."

I must say I ~~won't miss her~~ will be sad to see her go.

Barbara Walters Wants Sherri Shepherd Off The View

Karen — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 15:52:00 GMT

Sherri Shepherd has been getting on Barbara Walters last nerve.

From The National Enquirer:

“Barbara has had it with her,” said the source. “Barbara was shocked that Sherri would say she needs to be ’saved’. She’s dumbfounded by the stupid things that keep coming out of Sherri’s mouth…

Barbara has been saying that Sherri’s a “loose cannon,” added the source. “And after hearing what she said to a Christian magazine, word came back from Barbara that she wants to boot her off the show.

“Barbara thinks Sherri has become far worse of a problem than Star Jones and Rosie’s O’Donnell when they were on the show - and that’s saying a lot!”

While Barbara is ready to see Sherri move on from “The View,” insiders say it’s unlikely there will be a dramatic firing.“Barbara may first give her a chance to shape up before shipping her out…

“And if Barbara does let Sherri go, expect a fun farewell with the whole gang saying only nice things about Sherri in public.”

I hate that show. All the crosstalk between them gives me a headache. They're like a bunch of baby birds in a nest - lots of squacking, bird brains.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck's Saggy Boobs At Topless Pool

The ladies on The View were discussing boobs - boobage in many, many forms. Recently Sherri Sheperd and Elisabeth Hasselbeck were at a 'optional topless' pool area while on location in Las Vegas for the show, and they talked about how intimidated they were by the watermelon like boobs on women at the pool. Elisabeth refused to go topless because, as she said, after feeding two kids with those puppies, hers just aren't the same, and are origamically folded into her bra (thanks for the 411 Elisabeth). Watch the video for yourself and you will become intimately familiar with The View gals, and their boobs.
