Elisabeth Hasselbeck talked herself into some pretty big trouble on “The View” yesterday. While talking about the Mumbai massacre, she made an offensive reference to Deepak Chopra. Chopra is a popular Indian medical doctor who’s focused much of his writing on spirituality. He was recently interviewed by CNN and said the terrorists in Mumbai were trying to get Washington’s attention. Hasselbeck’s response was to tell him to “Go light a bowl of incense.”
Though Elisabeth Hasselbeck has offended many during her tenure on The View, she’s never quite had what could be called, in the show parlance, a “Ching Chong” moment. So named for Rosie O’Donnell’s Asian language impression in which she shrieked, “Ching Chong Ching Chong!” and stopped just shy of declaring, “That was me, Rosie, playing an Oriental!” the gaffe is the type that incurs the wrath of an entire race, and Hasselbeck may have had her own in this morning’s episode.
While attempting to reference Deepak Chopra’s recent remarks on the Mumbai massacre (he implied the terrorists had an eye on America), a frustrated Hasselbeck first called him “Glitter Glasses Whatshisface,” and then, dismissing his comments as beneath her recognition, muttered, “Go light a bowl of incense.” Why stop there, Elisabeth? Tell those minorities how you really feel using the most stereotype-laden kiss-offs you can muster! If your stylist tries to dress you in another pirate shirt? “Oh, go take your AIDS pills!” Joy Behar got you down? Just say, “Whatsa matta, you-a? Something land in your spaghetti? Oh, what-a spicy meatball!” It’s fun, easy, and guaranteed to get the letters pouring in!

I’d never defend Elizabeth Hasselbeck, but I can’t help but wonder if she was stereotyping an entire culture with the incense comment or if she was rudely and ignorantly referring to Chopra’s liberal spiritual beliefs. I interpreted it more as a crack about New Age spirituality more than a cultural slam. I could be completely wrong, and either way it’s clear Elizabeth’s comments were incredibly ignorant, inflammatory, and meant to reduce Chopra – if not an entire culture – to simple stereotypes. She doesn’t strike me as the type to apologize, but it seems like a ridiculous, insensitive, personal slam like that sure deserves one.
The names of the most recent crop of people who passed the New York bar exam were made public today, and guess who's not on it? Prozac Nation author Elizabeth Wurtzel, who decided to enroll in law school after she felt powerless on 9/11 (and her subsequent books Bitch and Now, More Again: A Memoir of Addiction were literary duds). Wurtzel, who graduated last May at the age of 40, doesn't sound like she's the best test-taker.
Wurtzel was seen taking the July exam at the Javits Center, a tipster tells us, but, as you can see below, the pass list is Wurtzel-less.
According to a New York Times story last year, she won her spot at usually super-choosy Yale with a subpar LSAT score of 160. While Wurtzel took time from her studies to condemn scurrilous Internet gossip, law school sounded a bit difficult for Wurtzel; she didn't hand in a paper because she and had an self-admitted "attitude problem." Nonetheless, she's had no trouble finding employment. Last month she started at Boies, Schiller, the law firm headed by Microsoft trust-busting attorney and Al Gore recount counsel David Boies.
Elizabeth Hurley in Porto Cervo, Sardinia (Aug. ‘07)
Am I the only one who thinks this movie looks like it sucks balls?
And I swear, everytime the commercial comes on television, I am sitting there with my 12-year-old stepson.
Talk about uncomfortable moments.. Of course then that commercial is followed by an erectile dysfunction commercial, followed by and Anusol commercial, followed up by a douche commercial..
Not many A-listers rushed out to this premiere either. In fact, it looks like a lot of lame porn stars came out looking for a little publicity.
For example…
This is Katie Morgan. Some hooker porn star who thinks she looks like Christina Aguilera. Yeah, Christina after being smacked in the face with a 2×4.. Repeatedly..
Then there is token porn star, Traci Lords, who is best known for making X-rated flicks at the age of 15.
Bitch wishes she was Jenna Jameson, but never quite reached that level of stardom. So she makes appearances here and there, and probably does a little side work in order to make ends meet..
The real stars of the show, Elizabeth Banks and Seth Rogen. They don’t know it yet, but this is probably the low point in their careers.. I will say that they both looked better than anyone who showed up to the premiere though.

Whether she was Saved by the Bell or just your average Las Vegas Showgirl trying to make it big, we've always held a special place in our heart for Elizabeth Berkley...
And now you should, too! The lovely "actress" was spotted leaving a blood bank in Los Angeles this week after making a contribution.
Is it just us or does SBTB deserve a reunion show? If they're giving us more 90210, they can give us more Saved by the Bell!
Either that or Showgirls 2 - take your pick!
The Daily Mail is reporting that The National Enquirer is reporting that Dame Elizabeth Taylor is not doing well after being hospitalized for pneumonia.
Elizabeth Taylor was put on a life support machine after suffering congestive heart failure, it was reported this evening.
The 76-year-old's condition was said to have deteriorated after she was initially diagnosed with pneumonia last week.
Her children were at her bedside and doctors warned she might not survive, said the U.S. publication National Enquirer.
Health fears: Elizabeth Taylor was reported to be 'still very sick'
But the following day she improved and the dual Oscar winner was breathing without medical help last night.
A source said: 'The doctors thought they were going to lose her. She's still very sick, but she's past the crisis.'
When it comes to The National Enquirer being a source the negative is that they are normally right on when celebrities are sick like Patrick Swayze and Farrah Fawcett, but the positive is that they exaggerate their conditions. So let's hope that is the case now, but until we know exactly how she is doing pray for her. Dame Elizabeth Taylor is a fighter, so let's pray she wins this fight!!!
UPDATE: Her publicist issued this statement!!!
"Ms. Taylor is fine. Her hospital visit was precautionary. She will be returning home shortly. At present, she is surrounded by family, friends and fabulous jewels."addthis_url = 'http%3A%2F%2Fseriouslyomg.com%2F%3Fp%3D8816'; addthis_title = 'Pray+for+Elizabeth+Taylor%3F'; addthis_pub = 'seriously';

Elizabeth Hurley, 43, appears to be heading for the elephant graveyard of celebrities. The English model and actress is turning her newly found ‘farm life’ into a reality TV show. The new show will focus on Hurley’s life in a country setting. The show will also give viewers opportunities to join her and her husband, businessman Arun Nayar, on their lavish 400-acre farm/estate. Which according to reports, was recently purchased in the Cotswolds for 3.3 million pounds. Hurley hopes the series will help show a completely different facet of herself, presumably to demonstrate she is a down-to-earth mortal just like the rest of us. She tells of her motivation for the reality show saying:
“I know that people always imagine me with perfect hair and stuck in high heels since I was a child, but that is not who I am, at least not all the time.”
She went on to say:
“Even my husband got a surprise the first time that he saw me in the country. He found me in some Wellingtons covered in mud, with holes in my jersey, and he thought that I was playing a joke on him. But we English are not as elegant as we seem.”

Gorgeous Elizabeth Hurley is about to show you all that she is more than a pretty face and zero body fat as she gets set to star in her own reality TV show about life her farm.
The show will follow Liz as she goes about daily life looking after her chickens and sheep on her farm in Cirencester, Gloucestershire. This should be interesting, instead of seeing Liz in fab evening gowns or looking super hot in a bikin we’ll get to see the modle/actress/designer in torn clothing and muddy boots.
She said: “People always imagine me with perfect hair. But that’s not who I am. The first time he saw me in the country, my husband found me in wellies, covered in mud.”

TMZ.com: It's a miracle Liz Taylor could stand up with all the bling she was rocking outside the Abbey in WeHo on Friday. Oh right, she didn't have to -- the 76-year-old legend was carted out on a wheelchair.We're told she was at the gay bar as the surprise... Read more
We spotted two American Pie alums over the weekend, engaging in very different activities! Shannon Elizabeth enjoyed a low key Sunday in Hollywood - first she hit up Samy's Camera, and then she went to lunch with a friend.
Professional party girl Tara Reid, on the other hand, went to the Christian Audigier party on Saturday night and emerged later looking a little, well, sloshed. Just look at her hair before and after - you'd think someone would have told her that a headband goes around your head, not on top of it!
Then again, we're pretty sure Tara cared more about the open bar than her 'do!
Two photo agencies have agreed to pay about $115,000 to Hugh Grant, his ex-girlfriend Liz Hurley and her husband for invasion of privacy over photographs taken of them on vacation.
The pictures, taken at a private resort in the Maldives, were published in Britain’s Daily Mail newspaper; and on their website in an article headed “Hugh’s that gooseberry?”; and in the News of the World newspaper in an article headed “Liz does the blokey-cokey”, and on their website. I don’t know about those article titles but it’s a British thing!
The photos were offered to a number of other newspapers and celebrity magazines in October 2007.
None of the three claimants was at the High Court in London to hear the settlement against Big Pictures (UK) Ltd and Eliot Press SARL.
The agencies have apologized unequivocally for using a long lens to violate the trio’s privacy and agreed to pay some of the group’s legal costs.
Grant, Hurley and her husband, Arun Nayar, have released a statement saying it was “reprehensible” that photos were taken of Hurley’s son playing naked on the beach.
The trio plan to donate the money to a cancer charity.

Although she may not have taken home the gold on Dancing With The Stars, Shannon Elizabeth's not letting it get her down!
Yesterday, for instance, we caught the starlet leaving the Sun Works Tanning Salon. Not only was Shannon sweet enough to smile for the camera, but she even took the time to chitchat with our videographer about the show! Atta girl, Shannon - way to not be a sore loser!
Better luck next time, Shannon!
Shannon Elizabeth and her Dancing With the Stars partner Derek Hough were voted off of the reality competition this week, which was surprising after the mid-dance injury competitor Cristian de le Fuente experienced in the show this week.
I guess it is only natural for Shannon to believe that something was amiss when she got booted off. She recently sourced a "bigger force" as the cause of her exit from the show, and not the number of votes from the fans.
TMZ reports that an insider says the "support staff" such as wardrobe, makeup, etc. were tired of Shannon's bitchiness and diva ways. As much as they loved Derek, they were afraid that Cristian's injury meant they had to deal with Shannon's poor attitude for another week.
I don't think those people had anything to do with Shannon's departure. Didn't she throw a bit of a fit last week when she had low scores? And the rumored affair she is having with Derek, who is 12 years younger than her? I think people just don't want to vote for alleged whiny cheaters.
Aside from that, people tend to really back up their favorites when something goes wrong, so I'd imagine that Cristian's fans were voting full force.
It works like that sometimes. Ask Brooke White from American Idol.

More photos of Shannon Elizabeth and Derek Hough leaving the Regis & Kelly studios after the jump.
Their run on reality television came to an end last night, as Shannon Elizabeth and partner Derek Hough were voted off of Dancing with the Stars.
“The show has been amazing. I’ve learned a lot,” Shannon said following the elimination. “I’ve made a friend for life, and hopefully a bunch of friends for life, and I’ll be here to support everyone as much as I can.”
Taking a break from promoting her new line of swimwear, Elizabeth Hurley attended the 2008 Duftstars Award in Berlin, Germany on Saturday (April 26).
Wearing a revealing evening gown, the 42-year-old Bedazzled babe was all smiles as she posed on the purple carpet for the lineup of event photographers.
Wearing a lovely red evening dress, Shannon Elizabeth hit the red carpet on Thursday night for the world premiere of “Deal”.

If the pics look photoshopped, that’s because they are. Hurley admitted to the Sunday Times:
“I can’t think of anything worse in the world than another bikini shoot – and I’ve got two next month. It’s unbearable, and I bring it all on myself. I’ve got nobody else to blame. It’s literallah torture. If you get a photographer you don’t know, of course, you think, ‘Oh God.’ But if you signed on for the gig, sadly, you have to go and be jolly in a skimpy white bikini. So I now rely on nice photographers, and a bit of retouching. I like a certain amount of retouching, like anybody.” (Source)
Well of course, who doesn’t? You just have to be a little more careful in this post 9/11 world — I swear there’s security cameras everywhere. Retouching myself in that public park last year damn near got my parole revoked.
Granted, the woman assuredly looks better than I do in a bikini, but she's so obviously heavily airbrushed in these shots, it's hard not to wonder whether or not this is actually just Eva Longoria or Mariah Carey. The British actress agreed to pose for the photos to promote her bikini line as long as she receives a little digital help. "I like a certain amount of retouching like anybody," she said.
Elizabeth admits that she was militant in her quest to regain her pre-baby figure after the birth of her son. "I did it by eating very little breakfast and not too much lunch. And only boring snacks such as a banana or six raisins. The only meal I have is dinner." Hmm, that sounds like a fancy way of explaining how she starved herself. Now, excuse me while I go gorge myself on these three M&M's I've been saving all month.
More Elizabeth Hurley donning swimwear are after the jump.
Rumor is that Elizabeth Hurley may be pregnant with her second child after showing “a little bump” at a Breast Cancer Research Foundation event in New York last week. What really got the rumor going was Fellow Hottest Pink Party Ever guest Elton John. Pretty in Pink Elton, who gave the actress away at her wedding last year, was overheard congratulating Hurley’s husband Indian businessman Arun Nayar.
An In Touch magazine source said, “Elton kissed and hugged Elizabeth and congratulated Arun.
“They seemed to be giggling over their little secret.”
Hurley wore a pink tummy-covering sari to the event, abstained from alcohol and “carried her clutch in front of her belly.”
The insider reports, “But you could still see a little bump.”
The 42-year-old actress has a 6-year-old son with producer Steve Bing, but is for now refusing to confirm reports she is pregnant again.

Jenna Jameson was on The View this morning, and it actually I found the interview to be pretty interesting.
I mean admit it, porn stars are a curious bunch!
Jenna was brutally honest on the show, opening up about her career in the sex industry, not glamorizing it, but explaining how she broke into it, why she does it and if she’ll be able to stay out of it now. She actually looked good, better than she has in recent still shots. Oh yeah, she also discusses her weight.
What cracks me up about this interview, is that Elizabeth Hasselbeck throws out one question to Jenna regarding HIV, (at :58) and you can just feel that she wants to make Jenna look bad and possibly blame the spread of HIV on her or something. But Jenna’s answer is good, and doesn’t seem bothered by the question at all. For the rest of the interview Elizabeth sits there stiffly and is quiet as a mouse as the other women pretty much lead the interview. So NOT like her!
Then when Sheri Shepherd is describing Jenna’s new film, Zombie Strippers, (3:28) Elizabeth has a smirk on her face that pretty much tells you she feels superior to, but is intimidated by Jameson. I mean hello? Since when does Elizabeth keep that sharp little tongue in her mouth? Thanks for shutting her up, Jenna!

She's out of the hospital!
Elizabeth Taylor was reportedly rushed to the emergency room earlier this month after allegedly overdosing on prescription pills and booze.
This past weekend, La Liz was out and about in Venice Beach - taking in the sights and soaking up the sun.
Nice to see the grande dame doing better!
Elizabeth Taylor overdosed on prescription meds and booze on April 6. Partay! The 76-year-old actress woke her assistant to rush her to the hospital when she began vomiting and couldn't breathe.
Elizabeth was treated and released at Cedars-Sinai.
"Liz was panicking. She really thought she was going to die," a friend said.
Lizzie has been visiting the gay bars recently, so she might have gotten some bad shit and went into a K-hole. She's in a wheelchair, so that could have been dangerous. She could have run over a pet or an assistant. Never do club drugs if you can't handle that mess.
Former Saved By the Bell babe Elizabeth Berkley was spotted leaving “A Votre Sante” in Brentwood after having lunch with a gal pal on Wednesday (April 9).
The 32-year-old Showgirls actress is getting prepared for her recently announced hosting duties on Step Up and Dance, a reality competition show that gives dancers the chance to show off their steps.
The Breast Cancer Research Foundation hosted the 'Hottest Pink Party Ever 2008' at the Waldorf Astoria last night. The event was hosted by Evelyn H. Lauder.
Liz Hurley and Gwyneth Paltrow both attended the event, as they are both Estee Lauder spokesmodels.
As the name suggests, all attendees were asked to wear pink. Liz wore an Indian sari, while Gwyn wore a bright fuschia dress with a black sash.
The more I see her new 'do, the more I really like it. Gwyneth has a new glow now that she ditched those long stringy locks.
Also at the event was Mr. Fierce himself, Christian Siriano, looking a little Sgt. Pepper-y. I'm curious as to why he didn't don any pink. I would think he might have been able to pull it off.
Representing 'Top Chef' were Padma Lakshmi and the handsome Rocco Dispirito, who might have been the only guy to actually wear the hue of the evening, except for Carson Kressley's little pocket square.
Actually, I'm a little disappointed that Carson didn't wear this pink little number.
