Barry Manilow was set to appear on The View, but has since decided that he wasn’t right for visiting the show. Apparently the reason that he decided to pull out before his appearance has to do the with pregnant, big mouth, who doesn’t think before she speaks. Elisabeth Hasselbeck is apparently no friend of Barry Manilow’s.

When speaking of why he refuses to go on The View, he told TMZ, “I strongly disagree with her views. I think she’s dangerous and offensive. I will not be on the same stage as her.”

There is only one show on this list that nearly everyone in my house watches on a regular basis. My pick for this one is Real Time with Bill Maher.

The Colbert Report • Comedy Central •
The Daily Show With Jon Stewart • Comedy Central • Late Night With Conan O’Brien • NBC •
Late Show With David Letterman • CBS •
Real Time With Bill Maher • HBO •

Winner: The Daily Show with Jon Stewart

Thoughts: John sauntered up to the stage while waiting for the rest of the crew to get up there. John and cast looked great. He was funny, as to be expected. I was slightly bummed that Bill missed out, but I am glad that Jon Stewart won this one. He thanked everyone and Comedy Central.

Considering I didn’t have a chance to watch any of these I will just leave you to see the nominees and the one who picked up the award.

Broken Trail • AMC •
Prime Suspect: The Final Act (Masterpiece Theatre) • PBS •
The Starter Wife • USA •

Winner: Broken Trail

Thoughts: Queen Latifah came out to honor the cast of Roots, who actually gave out the award for Outstanding Miniseries. Queen Latifah looked absolutely fabulous in a red dress. The cast of Roots was moved to be honored. Robert Duvall accepted the award. He thanked his wife and many others.

Dane Cook has a new song floating around and BWE decided that they liked it so much that they needed to make this video. The video is hilarious, but the song is completely uncharacteristic of the comedy that Cook often offers his fans.

Watch the video and listen to the song. When you’re done let us know what you think.

When Foxy Brown was put in Riker’s Island (the first time) she told the court that she was pregnant and she was getting married. Now she’s going to be sitting in Riker’s Island for a year and Brown’s manager is telling people that she is not pregnant.

Chaz Williams, Foxy’s manager told the AP, “This is the official statement: she is not pregnant.” Meanwhile, in other Brown news, while she will not be having a baby in prison, it is being said that she will be releasing a new album while she is there.

Sharon Osbourne is a pretty upfront person. If she doesn’t like you, it’s likely that you will hear about it from her. If not, she will let the press know to make sure you get the memo. Two people she doesn’t like, so much so that she is willing to call them out by press, include Courtney Love and Madonna. This time, Osbourne spoke to the folks over at the Daily Mirror.

Osbourne says that her dislike with Courtney Love deals with the fact that Love gave Osbourne’s son some prescription pain killers when he was just 15 years old. Osbourne says that is not a very motherly thing to do. On the other hand, who allows their 15 year old to associate with someone that is cracked out? Questions aside, it is being said that Love gave Jack the prescription painkiller, OxyContin. This is something that Jack eventually ended up in rehab for taking.

Osbourne says:

“I will never have time for Courtney Love. She was the first person to give my son Jack the prescription drug OxyContin. There’s not a shadow of doubt in my mind about that. My dislike towards her is very personal. I’m not saying Jack wouldn’t have taken it if she hadn’t given it to him, but I’m appalled that an adult mother would give that to a 15-year-old boy. How could she do that to someone else’s child? I haven’t had a row with her, but I will never talk to her.”

Meanwhile, her distaste for Madonna just deals with her mean and unaffectionate nature. Osbourne says she has never liked the singer and from the sounds of it, she never will.

“I dislike her. She annoys me. I’ve met her a few times and found her very cold and very rude. She’s annoyed me for years though, way before all the buying a baby thing.”

Comedian Kathy Griffin won a Creative Arts Emmy during the recent ceremony, for her show, Life on the D-List. Now it is being said that the comedian will be having her speech edited and ripped apart because it is not appropriate enough to be aired on television. The Creative Arts Emmys will air on E! on Saturday night, which is the night before the Primetime Emmys will be shown live.

So, what did Griffin say to get in such trouble? She didn’t say the N-word and she didn’t talk about Britney’s boo boos. Instead she is being censored for what appears to be some remarks she made about…Jesus. Apparently his peeps (the Catholic League) had a problem with her “hate speech”.

If you are wondering what she said it wasn’t anything about roasting Jesus on a cross, though you might think that by this overreaction of necessary editing that is going on. Griffin began by saying, “A lot of people come up here and thank Jesus for this award. I want you to know that no one had less to do with this award than Jesus.” Offended? I know I am…not. Of course, there is more.

While some reports are saying that JT partied all night long and left with Rihanna at the end of the night, other reports are saying just the opposite.

People Magazine is reporting that Timberlake wasn’t feeling too hot and skipped the parties to take his mother and girlfriend, Jessica Biel to dinner.

According to reports, Biel and Timberlake sat beside one another with friends at Tableau restaurants in the Spa Tower of Wynn Las Vegas. People at the restaurant are saying only good things about the two celebrities. “They were always touching and being very sweet with one another and in front of Justin’s mom.”

It’s so rare to be able to make people laugh. Sure, some people don’t like how Sarah Silverman calls Paris a slut or makes fun of Britney’s baby’s mistakes. However, let’s consider this for a moment. Paris was seen last night trying to be Diddy’s jacket, hanging all over him, and obviously pretty drunk. She can say she’s not that kind of girl, but she sure looks like it to everyone else.

Meanwhile, there is Britney. I do not doubt that she thinks she loves her kids, but would you seriously want her for a mother? She wasn’t sober last night and even if she claims she was, she wasn’t after the show when she was out showing her snatch to the entire Downtown Las Vegas area. The pictures are on the Internet already, but due to their unattractive nature we have opted to leave them out.

It must be hard being unattractive and bitter. Paris was not showing her giving, beautiful side of her changed ways this weekend. At LAX, Paris met up with pregnant pop star Christina Aguilera. Christina was with husband Jordan Bratman and some of her friends. Hilton was seen touching Christina’s belly and speaking with her, but Christina had no idea of Hilton’s plans.

People Magazine is reporting that Hilton got on the loud speaker at LAX to make a little announcement. “Congratulations to the most beautiful pregnant woman in the world. You’re gorgeous.”

Clubgoers noticed Christina looked shocked as she dropped her head to her husband’s shoulder in disbelief. However, she recovered quickly and laughed it off as the crowd including Adrien Grenier, Criss Angel, and Melanie Brown all cheered in response to the good news.

This name won’t be familiar to all people but Madeleine L’Engle was a celebrity in her own right. After all, good authors are certainly hard to come by. L’Engle was most famous for her children’s fantasy novel, A Wrinkle in Time. Published in 1962 after multiple rejections, Wrinkle won a Newbery Medal the following year. L’Engle went on to publish as many as 60 books including a mix of memoirs, poetry, and fantasy novels.

Once the Harry Potter books came out, there were many pseudo-comments given to L’Engle and the series that started with A Wrinkle in Time. Fans suggested that the Wrinkle series would be a great in-between read while waiting for more Harry Potter to come out. While L’Engle did admit to reading one Harry Potter book, she was not a fan. In a 2006 Newsweek article she spoke of Harry Potter. “It’s a nice story” she said, “but there’s nothing underneath it. I don’t want to be bothered with stuff where there’s nothing underneath.”

You may know star chef, Gordon Ramsay from Hell’s Kitchen where he is often seen yelling at people who are supposed to be chefs but that continuously screw up their food while on camera or from the BBC’s Kitchen Nightmares where Ramsay rips apart failing restaurants in an attempt to make them more successful. However, in his entire career (or any other chef for that matter) he probably never dreamed of this happening to him. What did he do you ask? Recently, Ramsay roasted one of his testicles.
