Barbara Walters was back on The View this morning for the first time since mid-January and she explained her absence. We all know that she fell and banged her head the weekend of the Inauguration and while she was at the hospital she was diagnosed with Chicken Pox.
She told her co-hosts that she went to a party in Florida earlier in January and hugged a well known actor who will remain nameless. That mysterious actor discovered after the party that he had Shingles. The newslady never had Chicken Pox, and people who haven’t can get the viral infection from someone who has Shingles. So now we are left to wonder who he is, I know I am curious. Let’s start guessing??? Brad Pitt? George Clooney? Andy Garcia? Sylvester Stallone?
Then Walters explained it wasn’t Chicken Pox keeping her off the air, but a concussion similar to the one that Hillary Clinton had. Doctors put her on bed rest until she was better. And now over a month later, she is better. And we are happy to have her back!
Barbara Walter was hospitalized 10 days ago after she fell and cut her head, and she has remained there with a low grade fever ever since. Today on The View Whoopi Goldberg revealed what has been ailing her, she said 83 year old newswoman has the Chicken Pox. That’s right the octogenarian has the childhood viral infection. The doctors want her to rest and according to Whoopi she is not allowed any visitors at the time. No word yet when she will be released and back on the ABC talk show. Hopefully she will be better very soon.
It appears she is on the road to recovery because why else would her co-hosts joke about it. Joy Behar said that is what she gets for interviewing Honey Boo Boo and Elisabeth Hasslebeck said she thought she was pregnant. With friends like that, who needs Rosie O’Donnell or Star Jones?
BTW I, like Barbara Walters, have never had the dreaded Chicken Pox, but I got the vaccine a few years ago. I am surprised her doctor didn’t do the same.
Whoopi Goldberg made like Whoopee Cushion and let out an extremely loud fart on The View yesterday. It might have been loud, but by the look of Joy Behar’s face it wasn’t a smelly one because if it was she wouldn’t have been laughing as hard.
BTW I think that The View should make it a daily thing. And they can make it contest, guess the exact moment that one of the women is going to let one rip? I would watch if that was the case.
A day after Barbara Walters declared that The Kardashians were one of her 10 Most Fascinating People of the Year, Gilles Marini Tweeted a picture of the legendary news lady checking what made him a star. So I guess even though she said that Kim and her sisters don’t have any talent, they have a talent for helping bring out her naughty side. Granted if I saw the Sex and the City Naked Man, I would do the same thing she did. I mean is there any reason to look at him in the eyes after that shower scene?
Prince went on The View today (yes The View) to surprise the ladies with tickets to his show, and he wasn’t prepared for how Crazy co-host Sherri Shepard would Go for him. The former-Symbol sat next to her and every time the camera had the two of them in a shot, you could see her pants getting wetter and wetter with her Purple Rain. Finally she burst out, “You don’t understand, I have wanted to make love to you to my whole life.” Well as soon as he heard that he got in his Little Red Corvette and high-tailed his way out of there. Poor TAFKAP…
