Well, this is just all kinds of awkward…We never would have taken Babs Walters for the cougar kind, but the 80-year-old television icon couldn’t stop batting her eyelashes at Zac Efron, 21, on Monday’s The View.
Paging, Baby V-Hud!
The former High School Musical hunk dropped by the morning gabfest with his Me & Orson Welles co-star Claire Danes in tow and Barbara somehow thought it would be the perfect time to get all googly-eyed about Zac’s killer abs. Brain Bleach, please!
La Toya Jackson will open up about her late brother Michael, his alleged murder, and the King of Pop’s relationship with the three children he left behind in an interview with ABC’s Barbara Walters next month.
The former Playboy centerfold has been outspoken about her belief that her 50-year-old brother was murdered ever since MJ’s death of a suspected overdose at his rented Los Angeles June 25. Now she’s breaking her silence. ABC promises a “no-holds-barred interview will cover topics including La Toya Jackson’s impressions of Michael Jackson’s children and her insight into the Jackson family.”
“I am thankful to the investigators for uncovering the truth to the world, and I look forward to the day that justice will be served to ALL the parties involved in my brother’s homicide.”
La Toya’s interview with Barbara airs on Friday, Sept. 11 on 20/20. La Toya will also fill-in for Elisabeth Hasselbeck as a co-host on the Walters-produced daytime talk show The View on September 16 and 18.
Eeeek! Barbara Walters returned to her upscaled Manhattan penthouse last week to find a dead pigeon lying in the middle of her bathroom floor.
According to The Globe, the shaken creator of The View was stunned that the creature was able to get into her home — after all, all of the window were locked.
Barbara quickly alerted the building super, who explained that the pigeon probably entered the apartment through the chimney and later killed itself trying to escape.
“Babs freaked out when she saw the lifeless creature and had someone else dispose of it.”
Barbara Walters has a bone to pick with Bruno. Babs claims she was left disgusted and outraged by Sacha Baron Cohen’s box office hit — and wants the world to know it.
During a heated debate during The Hot Topics segment of The View Tuesday, the veteran newswoman complained that she found movie boring and “very pornographic” for its R rating. Apparently, BW didn’t enjoy seeing close-ups of penises and anal sex. Barbara also discussed her concerns over parents bringing their children to see the comedy.
The usually levelheaded Whoopi Goldberg unleashed her inner Native New Yorker on conservative commentator Glen Beck on The View Wednesday.
The Oscar-winning star coined a new catchphrase on today’ show, calling Beck a “lying sack of dog mess” after the host of The Glen Beck Program publicly lied about his chance meeting with Whoopi and View creator Barbara Walters on an Amtrak train last week.
