Today was a bittersweet day on ‘The View,’ as all the co-hosts came together for a Barbara Walters sendoff. And in case you were concerned about how they would all fit, they took a special seat at an extra-big table. I must say that I miss Joy Behar’s one-liners the most, and it was quite nice to see Meredith Viera’s calm temperament on stage again. Watch the very sweet reunion below.

Amy Purdy & Derek Hough’s Awe-Inspiring Tango — TAKE A LOOK
If there was ever any doubt about Derek Hough’s domination of Dancing With the Stars, watch his powerful performance of the Argentine Tango. Hough’s captivating choreography was shockingly created during Purdy’s back injury, forcing Purdy to watch as Hough executed the moves with another partner during practice. She therefore had an extremely short period of time to prepare for Monday’s show. If you watch the video below carefully, you’ll notice that Hough designed each move around Purdy’s injury to put less pressure on her back as they performed. He’s an artist.

Isaiah Washington Makes Poetic Return to Grey’s Anatomy
“Isaiah is a person that we all love and have loved for a very long time. I feel like there have been a lot of people that have been like, ‘How can you do this?’ And I feel very strongly and fully believe in people’s ability to grow and change and learn from their mistakes and when they know better, to do better. If people don’t think that, over the course of seven years, it’s possible for a human being to change, then there really is no future for the human race at all.” Series creator Shonda Rhimes, on Isaiah Washington’s return to Grey’s Anatomy after his much-publicized exit from the show. Watch Washington’s beautiful chemistry with Sandra Oh below.
Dancing With the Stars — Macy’s Stars of Dance Performance
Dancing With the Stars has upped the ante this year, with professional performances from their seasoned elite, along with modern music choices and more talented stars. While the jury is still out on the bid to regain their ratings, they’ve certainly given it their A-Game. Watch my personal favorite, Derek Hough, perform with a group of very talented dancers for a featured routine.
Lindsay Appears on The View — WATCH NOW
No one has ever doubted Lindsay Lohan’s charm, beauty, and talent. That being said, everyone has doubted her ability to make a comeback, considering her many inconsistencies. Sure sobriety is a life-long struggle, but bad behavior has consequences, and some of that bad behavior is irreparable. As for the media’s fascination with the raucous red-head, it’s a little hard to explain. The View joined that fascination with Lindsay’s guest appearance. So is she reformed? First I’d like to know if she showed up on time.
Lake Bell Covers Esquire — Debuts Beautiful Boobies
The very beautiful Lake Bell covered the April 22 issue of Esquire Magazine, and it’s certainly worth the look. Read some choice quotes below, and take a little time to enjoy the view.
On wanting to be an actress as a child:
“I was tirelessly motivated, because I felt very clear about what I wanted to do. I didn’t fully understand what it meant to be an actor, but I knew it was someone who gets to play different characters, gets to pretend to be in different worlds, and gets to make people laugh or feel. I’m sure there was some sort of validation, where the attention is on me and I can make people laugh; that’s normal kid stuff. But then it started to gestate into something more complicated and exciting and very fulfilling.”
On directing:
“If I write something and I’m going to put in all that love and energy, I want to direct it. As an actor, you have access to the trenches—to a myriad of different sets. You can sponge and learn, or you can go back to your trailer and look at YouTube videos of cute kids falling asleep. There’s a time for those videos, but I had a hunger to learn.”
On marriage:
“Marriage is traditionally old-school in many respects. It is highly antiquated, and, that being said, beautiful.”
On her new movie Million Dollar Arm:
“It’s sweet. And it’s a true story. You’re going to cry.”
Andi Dorfman Disses Juan Pablo is New-Season Poster
Though Andi Dorfman was an ABC favorite after she axed Juan Pablo during her stint on The Bachelor, I still contend she’s far too difficult to be an in-demand Bachelorette. Sure she’s strong, but she’s also temperamental, and much like Deanna Pappas, I simply can’t see her appealing to a mass quantity of men. That being said, this should be an interesting season. As for the poster that poked at Juan Pablo, that copywriter deserves an immediate raise.
Tony Dovolani and Nene Leakes Fight Over the Foxtrot — WATCH NOW
Last night’s Dancing With the Stars gave viewers a behind-the-scenes peak at all the backstage drama surrounding the show. For starters, Nene Leakes danced with Derek Hough last week, much to the dismay of Tony Dovolani, who didn’t want to hear the inside scoop about Derek’s superior choreography. If you know the show, then you know Derek Hough is the true star, with choreography and moves that far exceed his fellow dancers. And while Tony is certainly talented, it’s just not a fair fight. Watch the drama below.
