Momma Spears Pulls Out of The View

So much for getting a view into Britney's world. Her mom, Lynne Spears, has cancelled her appearance on The View today. Damn.

Tune in Tuesday!

On Tuesday, June 6th (aka: Paris goes to jail day), Britney Spears' mother, Lynne Spears will be on The View! They used to have a tight relationship but Brit cut her off after her quick stint in rehab. I'm hoping for momma Spears to dish all to the ladies at The View. And now that Rosie is gone, it will actually be watchable.

Rosie Says It Was the Split Screen

Rosie has said it was the split screen used during her fight with Elisabeth Hasselbeck on Wednesday's The View, that upset her and made her decided not to return to The View to complete her contract.

Rosie is seen here on her blog in a video she made on Saturday night - talking about the situation. She doesn't look good.

This morning on The View, Barbara Walters addressed the situation, and reiterated that it was solely Rosie's decision to leave The View early and that she had spent all weekend sending affectionate emails back and forward with Rosie. Barf.

Then a very perky Elisabeth put her two cents in and said that she had been "in communication" with Rosie and they were discovering the "power of forgiveness". In other words, they have agreed never to speak to each other again.

Thirty seconds after I typed the above sentence - I found this story confirming that they will never speak again.

It's Official...

Rosie is definitely leaving The View three weeks early, after Wednesday's big fight with Elisabeth Hasselbeck.

Brian Frons, President of ABC Daytime, issued the following statement:"We had hoped that Rosie would be with us until the end of her contract three weeks from now, but Rosie has informed us that she would like an early leave. Therefore, we part ways, thank her for her tremendous contribution to 'The View' and wish her well."

Rosie herself said this: "I'm extremely grateful. It's been an amazing year and I love all three women."

Wow - I am so surprised that Rosie is quitting early. She couldn't have just made nice and worked out her three weeks? There must have been so much more going on over at The View than we'll ever know, to make it that unbearable for Rosie to go on - or she's taking the easy way out. I'll be very interested to hear what Barbara Walters has to say on Tuesday.

In the meantime Barbara - if your looking for a couple of new co-hosts Mia and I would like to apply. We're very chatty and keep up with current events! Email us!!

Meanwhile - Trump has managed to get his two cents worth in as well - click here to see what he had to say

Did Rosie Trash Elisabeth's Dressing Room?

Rumors are going around that Rosie was so furious after her big fight with Elisabeth Hasselbeck on Wednesday mornings show, that she trashed Elisabeth's dressing room. ABC is denying it.

Page Six is also reporting that several photographs of Elisabeth were defaced.

Yesterday, Rosie's chief writer, Janette Barber, was allegedly escorted from the building after she was caught drawing moustaches on photographs of Hasselbeck that hang in the "View" studios. The Post's Adam Buckman reports ABC confirmed in a statement only that "photographs at 'The View's' offices were defaced. Rosie O'Donnell was not in the building. ABC Legal and Human Resources are investigating the matter." Barber is an old friend of O'Donnell who worked with her years ago on "The Rosie O'Donnell Show."

Yesterday, Rosie had a scheduled day off and Kathy Griffin hosted the view and the "fight" was discussed only briefly. I watched The View today and it was "previously recorded", so I'm not sure what that means, but I thought that Rosie was sort of ignoring Elisabeth and talking over the top of her, so this morning was a non-event.

Rosie has been hinting on her own blog that she might not be returning to The View on Tuesday. She has also put up this very cryptic video!. What does it all mean?

I think she'll be back on Tuesday - if only to have the last word.

Rosie V Elisabeth
Rosie V Elisabeth Update

Rosie vs. Elizabeth UPDATE

Elizabeth Hasselbeck told Extra TV that all is well between her and Rosie even after this morning's blow up.

“I am fine. We are used to debating things there. You have women who care a lot about things. The best thing about today is that there’s no slow boil, none. It’s there, it’s an issue, it’s dealt with and it’s over. If there are tensions, [and] obviously there was, it’s dealt with in the moment.”
“We’ve invested a lot into our friendship. We also have a lot of passion. The best thing about us is that we are honest and deal with things up front. I honestly think, I believe that we are mature women who can resolve. I hope we can. I would hope that a disagreement or a heated debate wouldn’t be the end of a relationship. … They take work. I’m hoping that can happen here too. I don’t think that is impossible at all.”

Personally, I think Elizabeth is full of crap. I loved that she defended herself against Rosie but you can't tell me that she isn't the slightest bit pissed anymore. I'm just not buying the 'friendship' angle either. I hope that once Rosie leaves, Elizabeth will tell us how she really feels.

Rosie V Elisabeth

Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Rosie went at it on The View this morning. There's something about this fight that puts us on Elisabeth's side - which is shocking in itself!! It's long but worth it.

Bye Bye to Rosie?

Are the morning airwaves about to get a little quieter? TMZ is reporting that today Rosie O'Donnell will announce that she is leaving the morning bitch fest, The View. Word is that she will finish the season though. TMZ says that they have spoken to "multiple industry people" who say that the buzz started from within the show itself. I hope so. I'm really sick of hearing about Rosie and all her feuds. She has used The View as her own little soap box. This is one episode I will not miss!

UPDATE: Rosie just announced that she will leave the view.
"I've decided we couldn't come to terms with my deal."
Rosie wanted one more year but ABC wanted three. She will be on "frequently" next season however. Barbara Walters said they have not thought of a replacement yet.

Antonella Barba: Going Wild?

What is Antonella Barba going to be doing when she gets kicked off (maybe) Idol on Thursday night? If Joe Francis has his way, she'll be "celebrity" hosting a new video of Girls Gone Wild , and Francis is willing to throw a $250,000 contract Barba's way!

Joe Francis told TMZ "We have reached out to Antonella Barba through her family and are trying to reach her directly in order to offer her a hosting job for one of our upcoming video projects. Just like the American Idol judges, we at Girls Gone Wild are looking for a girl next door, with sexiness, attitude, a carefree spirit and a presence that will command the attention of the Nation."

After seeing Antonella's photographs popping up everyday on the internet , I'm sure that hosting a Girls Gone Wild video will be a piece of cake for her!!

In other Idol news, all the men were truly horrible last night and none of them deserve to go on the "the big stage", but unfortunately six of them have to move on.

In even more Idol news, the producers of American Idol have refused to give clips of the show to the ladies over at The View, after Rosie O'Donnell, of course, has been bad mouthing the Idol.
