Don Rickles Terrorizes ‘The View,’ Insults Elisabeth, Barbara, Jay Leno, World

4:11AM Kyle Buchanan | Ever since Don Rickles appeared in the middle of the most painfully awkward Emmy ceremony ever and brought the house down by making fun of it, we’ve looked forward to the day when he would bring those same powers of incisive cruelty to The View. Today was that day. More »

Barbara Walters to Rosie and Star: ‘Ladies, Get On With Your Lives’

3:39AM Kyle Buchanan | While promoting her upcoming variety show Rosie Live yesterday, Rosie O’Donnell shocked exactly no one by dishing dirt on her former View cohosts. “[Barbara Walters] wanted everyone to believe and think and act as if we get along and are really good friends and happy and hang out together, and, you know, that’s just not the reality,” O’Donnell said. “I’m not saying they loathe each other, but the fact of the matter is, there was not a lot of camaraderie off camera.” We’ve heard similar stories, but O’Donnell’s comments at least compelled the co-hosts to summon some on-screen camaraderie today in order to denounce both Rosie and intermittent Barbara-basher Star Jones. Sadly, we fear that their ridiculously transparent “The Former Co-hosts Who Must Not Be Named” shtick will only open the door for a publicity-hungry Debbie Matenopolous to attempt an unsolicited, aggrieved rebuttal in the pages of Life & Style.

Which Recent Makeout Session Tops List Of Legendary Stomach-Turning Celebrity Hookups?

5:10AM Molly Friedman | We rarely like to take a mental walk down memory lane when it comes to the Most Nauseating Celebrity Hookups of all time, but news of the latest addition has unfortunately led us to revisit the grotesque list. We’ve already seen Liza Minelli and Phantom Of The Plastic Surgery Ward David Gest exchange saliva, Star Jones give Al an awkward lap dance and guiltily pleasured ourselves by witnessing wrinkly charmer Hugh Hefner and his thin lips attach themselves to the Girls Next Door. But after reading about one beach yoga-practicing, SUV-abandoning actor known for generally annoying everyone in Hollywood, and one scratchy-voiced “punk” rock chick known for generally hating everyone in Hollywood playing tongue twister in LA this past Tuesday, we may have a winner. The canoodlers in question, and just how far they went, after the jump: More »
