I think Sandra is totally funny and I love her irreverant outbursts. The fight with Star isn't even as bad as with Elizabeth in the end.

Barbara asks her, "What do you think of Laura Bush?" and Sandra says, "I think she is heavily medicated."

Thanks for the tip, Jazzy, that was a well spent 7 minutes.

^^^ Holy crap, that was hilarious. Women are so effing catty! I love Sandra Bernhard, though, so Star and Elisabeth can suck it. Thanks, Jazzy, for bringing it to our attention, and thanks to Suze for posting it.

I think all the women on The View can suck it.

Whoa, now see, this shows just how bad it is. When a sweet person can speak with such venom!

Sandra is so funny in that video. She tells how it really is. lol

What the h*** is wrong with Elisabeth H? You'd think Sandra insulted her mother or something?

Hmmm ... maybe we've found a skeleton in the Bushes' closet?

Did anyone watch Star last night? I didn't bother, but I'd love a Cliff's Notes version.

I did. it was quite interesting actually. Star says she was told in April, ABC says she was told in November...Star says that the whole freebie wedding thing was all ABC's idea and that she was actually not even allowed to ask for specific things. ABC did that and then she was told to talk about it. I have to give her credit, she said she would never denegrate Barbara Walters b/c she gave her the opportunity and she learned so much from her and respects her. She said no one will ever be able to bait her or make her say anything bad about her or The View.

I have to agree Star handled herself admirably last night. I do think, however, Star was not telling the truth regarding what she knew and when. I just got that impression and I think the facts somewhat support that conclusion because she totally surprised the people on the View b y announcing it on Tues. instead of Thurs. and she gave that interview to People the week before. So, this, to me, appears to be a totaly calculated move by a woman who has been canned and has no job waiting. In the end, that I care at all is more horrifying to me

I know. I thought the same thing.

yeah, my heart bleeds to a millionaire celebrity...

I watched also and feel that all she did wrong was surprise everybody at The View by making her announcement two days early. Besides the People Magazine interview, what Barbara Walters seems to be most pissed about is that Star told the truth about her being fired instead of making up some bull**** story that it was her own decision to leave the show.

I think Star is right - telling the truth about being fired is the more dignified way of leaving the show. Barbara thinks it would have been better to make up a story, but that would have left Star looking like a big liar when the truth about why she left eventually got leaked to the tabloids.

i didn't see star last night, but i did see her this morning on the TODAY show & from what you guys have posted, she said the same things~ now i went on the record not being a fan of hers, but i thought she did wonderfully & is totally coming out as the bigger person in all of this~ i wish her well w/ whatever she choses to do w/ her future~

I agree... The only thing she did that took them by surprise is the surprise announcement two days before...and the facts, no lie. She may have wanted to do it on Thursday but I think People posted the story before the Tuesday show even aired so she may have had little choice... But I think the way she did it on The View was dignified.... and the way she handled herself on Larry King was dignified... She took back control, which probably pissed off Babs and ABC... I think if the discussion of her being let go came up back in November and they didn't tell her about it... I'd be a little upset about not being let in on what's going on. Things can be turned around if worked at.

Anyway... I think the Producers of The View including Babs and ABC are the ones that look a little evil in the situation at this point.

Hi everyone!

I saw the Larry King interview last night. Star seems to think that she will be getting lots of television opportunities in the future, but I think she is dillusional. She has turned herself into one of the least liked celebs in America (with a little help from Kathy Griffin). She has been kicked off The View because, frankly, no one likes her! Why does she think that anyone would be interested in watching a show with her as the main host? It makes no sense! She has no fan base, so how can she think that the sky is the limit for her?

Or, do you think that this recent "getting fired" thing will make her look better in the eyes of the public and boost her career?

Your thoughts?
