ABC’s The View is supposed to be all about expressing opinions on hot topics, be it politics or pop culture. Opinions are like, well you know, everyone has one. Today The View’s Elizabeth Hasselbeck apologizes for hers.

Last year, ESPN reporter Erin Andrews was in the spotlight, but not for her dancing. A stalker filmed a naked Andrews through a hotel room peephole. Hasselbeck’s comments that sparked an uproar went something like this: the man, since convicted, would have seen “a little bit less — without the prison time” just by watching “Dancing With The Stars” this season. Most obviously referring to the skimpy costumes Andrews parades around the dance floor in each week.

She most definitely has a point…just maybe it is a point that should left unspoken.

On Wednesday’s episode, Hasselbeck said Fighting back tears, Hasselbeck explains that her 5-year-old suggested she call Erin and apologize for her remarks. She did and then publicly apologized on Wednesday’s show.

ABC finally put Kate Gosselin out of her misery. After four painful-to-watch dances, the reality mom will be hanging up her dancin’ shoes. She and partner Tony Dolovani became the third couple to leave the dance floor on the hit show Dancing With The Stars.

Kate let go a flood of emotion, along with a few shaky and rehearsed words, after she was given the boot.

“I am very honored to have been here … It was a good experience.” She added, “I cannot wait to watch the rest of these people perform Monday … I’ve really grown to love everyone.” She finally thanked her fans for voting for her despite low scores from the judges. Said Gosselin, “Thank you for believing in me probably more than I believed in myself.”

Maksim “Maks” Chmerkovskiy may be putting the moves on another dancer, well dancer in training, during season 10 of Dancing With The Stars. Maks, 30, says he and ESPN correspondent Andrews, 31, are “maybe” dating, according to Hollywoodlife.com.

“She’s very friendly, super nice, great personality,” he gushes to PEOPLE. “She does not hold back. She’s open, and what you see is what there is. Everybody who meets her falls in love with her.”

This relationship is “maybe” spawning on the heels of his break-up with fellow (and former) dancing pro, Karina Smirnoff. After their first routine with Erin was finished on Monday night, Maks had this to say:

“I’m so proud,” he told PEOPLE. “I made her do a cha cha that I would make a professional dancer do.”

Andrews seems equally enthralled with her mentor, “This one has been amazing,” she said. “When Kentucky was upset (referring to the NCAA basketball tourney), he texted me about it. He was like, ‘You’re the only person I know that cares about this.’ He’s been adorable.”

Adorable? Maksim Chmerkovskiy is down right smokin’! Good grab Erin, let’s see if you can hang on.

Just days after accepting the Oscar for her movie, The Blindside, Sandra Bullock was blindsided herself. Maybe biker Jesse James has inhaled too many exhaust fumes, or maybe he is just plain stupid. If married to Sandra Bullock, only an idiot would even look at another woman. Let alone a former Amish gal (that’s right…Amish) currently a mother of two and covered in tattoos.

Michelle McGee, a stripper in San Diego, says she carried on an 11-month affair with the Oscar winner’s hubby- and that he says his marriage was a sham and  “just for publicity.”

“I would never have hooked up with him if I thought he was a married man,” McGee told In Touch Weekly. “He gave me the impression they were separated.”

She said she met James at his motorcycle shop in Long Beach, while Sandra was filming The Blind Side.

“We ended up on the couch,” she said. “He wanted to watch movies, but I asked him, ‘What’s going on with you and Sandra?’”

“‘She doesn’t live here. She has a house in Austin. She is filming, and I can’t talk about it,’” James reportedly told her.

They had sex “two or three times” in his office that night, she said, and have been sleeping together for nearly a year.

It is probably my most favorite commercial on the tube these days…it’s an E-Trade advertisement featuring talking babies. It is one of a series of advertisements starring some oh-so-cute tots and it is now the center of a lawsuit, thanks to Queen Lindsay.

Lindsay Lohan is suing the financial corporation, insisting that one of the babies — who happens to be named Lindsay — was modeled after her. The baby is referred to as a milk-a-holic (hilarious). Wonder what would give her the idea that the baby was modeled after her? The ad shows a baby boy apologizing to his girlfriend via webcam for not calling the night before. The baby girl(friend) asks, “So that milk-a-holic Lindsay wasn’t over?”

She wants $100 million for her pain and suffering. Lohan’s lawyer, Stephanie Ovadia, said the actress has the same single-name recognition as Oprah or Madonna. What? Are you kidding Lindsay? First of all, there are millions of Lindsays in the world. How many Oprahs or Madonnas do you know? Secondly, don’t flatter yourself, your name shouldn’t even be in the same sentence with showbiz icons.

Grow up…you are such a baby.

After spilling his guts to Playboy, John Meyer has offered Jessica Simpson an apology for his disclosures concerning their sex life, via email. What a jerk, right? Jessica opens up to Oprah about John Meyer, the “mom jeans” thing and her weight on today’s episode. She doesn’t seem to be inclined to accept the emailed apology, she didn’t hit reply.

I don’t know why she is so pissed off anyway, he was very complimentary about her abilities in the boudoir. He called her sexual napalm for god’s sake! Napalm? Who thinks of that? In the Playboy interview, John also refers to Jessica’s bedroom behavior as crack cocaine to him. Really John? The entire rant on Jessica seemed to stem from crack cocaine, but it was however, very complimentary to her. Who doesn’t wanna be sexual napalm?

If you’ve been keeping up with the latest season of ABC’s The Bachelor, you may be thinking that it seems more like an episode of Jerry Springer than quality family programming. The latest publicity stunt involves 25-year-old Tenley from Oregon. In an advertisement for an upcoming episode, Tenley says to Jake, “I’m pregnant.”

It is, in fact, a stunt. The clever editing by ABC’s staff left audiences thinking that her words were true. It was revealed on Monday night that Tenley was only joking with Jake. This is just one of the low-blows the reality show has given this season in order to attract audiences.

In last week’s episode, Rozlyn Papa is accused of an “inappropriate relationship” with one of the producers that gets her eliminated from the show and the producer fired. Again, some cleverly edited promos lead audiences to believe that the “inappropriate relationship” may have involved two women in the house.

An anonymous bachelorette said the network would do anything to create drama. She told Radar Online, “You have to be so careful on that show because someone could step on your foot and they’ll make it look like you broke your toe! ABC will do anything to create drama. Even if they were just cuddling, the producers can easily make it look like something more.”

I literally had to do a double take when I passed by the tabloid section at the supermarket. The headline read, “New Look for Kate Gosselin”, but could that be her?

The picture splashed across People Magazine’s January issue looks more like a photoshoot for one of Hollywood’s newest starlets. But, it is in fact, Kate Gosselin. It appears she is attempting to start her life over, a life without hubby Jon Gosselin, and she starts with this awesome makeover and an interview with People.

“It’s good to have hair again,” Kate tells People. “I never thought I’d have short hair for as long as I did. I feel like this is a fresh start, a fresh me, a fresh life.”

Later in the interview, she refers to herself as the new “Kate Clean Slate.”

“I’m rebuilding. There’s no option for this not to be a good year. Now I get to start over with a new self and new goals.”

Though police have announced that no further investigation is required in Tiger Woods’ late-night crash, the rumor mill is still working overtime and jeopardizing the marriage of the 7-time green jacket winner.

Jaimee Grubbs, Tiger’s alleged mistress, played a voicemail message that the golf superstar had left her on November 24. In the message, Tiger asked her to remove her name from the outgoing message on her voicemail because Elin (Tiger’s wifey) was becoming suspicious.

TMZ reported that Elin also called Jaimee herself on Friday, the day of the crash. Jaimee says the caller — a woman — did not identify herself but said, “You know who this is because you’re f**king my husband.”

So, maybe it isn’t a rumor.

Are celebrities really dumb enough to think that cocktail waitresses, strippers and the like will keep their mouths shut about hooking up with a superstar?

The search for a killer is over. The only suspect in the murder of Jasmine Fiore was found dead in a Canada motel room on Sunday. Ryan Jenkins, husband of the slain supermodel, had been on the run since Jasmine’s mutilated body was found last week in a dumpster in Buena Park, California. He committed suicide by hanging himself in the motel room.

The hotel manager says Jenkins was checked in by a young blond woman who stayed with Jenkins for about twenty minutes after they checked in and then left. When Jenkins did not check out on Sunday morning, the manager went into his room and found the suspected murderer hanging from a coat rack on the wall of the motel room.

Lt. Steve Holliday of Buena Park PD addressed the press, saying, “The sadness of this is all is that Mr. Jenkins will not stand before an Orange County jury for his crime.”
