Rape Joke Incites Laughter on 'The View'
Inappropriate: Sofia Vergara joking about being raped on "The View" today.
More Inappropriate: Several members on "The View" panel LAUGHING about it!!!!!
For the record -- Whoopi "rape rape" Goldberg was the only one who looked disturbed by the joke. You can hear someone on the set say, "Whoaaa!" -- but it's unclear whose mouth it came from.
Thanks to Jezebel for pointing it out.

Taylor Swift Is Funny -- Who Knew?
Joe Jonas, Kanye West and Kate Gosselin were all targets of Taylor Swift last night during her hilarious appearance on "Saturday Night Live."
After skewering her ex and Kanye during the monologue, Taylor threw on a classic Kate wig that looks like "a gorgeous waterfall of human hair in the front and in the back ... a patriotic fireworks display."

Kanye Sees Taylor's View -- Calls to Apologize
Kanye West has finally made the call.
Moments after Taylor Swift told the ladies of "The View" that as of this morning, Kanye hadn't called to apologize ... guess who decided to pick up the phone?
Reps at "The View" claim Kanye rang up Taylor right after she finished her segment and offered a big, fat apology for stealing her moment at the MTV VMAs this weekend.
Of course, Swift reportedly accepted the apology.

Mischa on Her Breakdown - Blame It on the Tooth
Mischa Barton opened up about her August breakdown today on "The View" -- saying the whole thing started when her wisdom teeth surgery went "really badly wrong."
A lucid Mischa said she was already "overwhelmed" by work when she went in for surgery, which only made things worse. Barton says she was sent to the psychiatric ward because, "If you say anything, like, negative in the hospital and they think you're a risk to yourself, they hold you, they won't let you go."
Mischa said she hit "rock bottom," but is "fine" now and called the whole ordeal a "wake-up call."
Whoopi's Vegas Act Cut Short After Fan Collapses
The show musn't always go on ... especially when an audience member has a medical emergency towards the end of your set.
Whoopi Goldberg ended her Las Vegas stand up show early Friday night after a man in the crowd collapsed ... reportedly due to a seizure he experienced during the show.
According to the Las Vegas Review Journal, the incident occurred towards the end of Whoopi's set -- and the comedian told the crowd it was best to call it a night so the man could be assisted properly. The man's condition is currently unknown.
FYI -- the whole thing went down in Steve Wynn's Encore hotel -- in the same room where Danny Gans used to perform. And yes -- fans were already suggesting the room was cursed as they streamed out of the theater.

Barbara Walters -- Repeat Offender
No, you're not seeing double -- Barbara Walters committed one of the biggest sins of fashion: Wearing the same outfit in public twice ... in the same week!
Babwa wore this frilly black ensemble to the Time's 100 Most Influential People gala last Tuesday -- then again to the White House Correspondents' Dinner Saturday, matching earrings and all.
Them fancy dresses is expensive, maybe the recession is to blame?

Stephen Colbert: "I Have Twatted"
Was it a Freudian slip ... or did Stephen Colbert and Meredith Viera reveal a little more than they intended this morning on "Today" when they tried to admit to have used Twitter in the past?!
Judging by the face Viera makes, we think it's pretty clear...
Babwa Sings, Eardrums Bleed
For some crazy reason, Barbara Walters thought it would be a good idea to burst out in song on "The View" this morning. It only lasted for six seconds ... but trust us, even that was six seconds too many.
This should be a ring tone.
"The View" is Like a Drug...
Yes, this actually happened during a diet segment on "The View" today ... and no, Kate Moss wasn't a scheduled guest.
Abdul Attacks Idol: They Knew About Stalker
Paula Abdul is pissed off -- and lashing out at "American Idol," claiming she begged "Idol" producers to keep suicidal fan Paula Goodspeed off the show -- but even after the desperate warning, the dangerously obsessed fan made the show anyway.
Just moments ago on "The View," Babwa went into detail about an interview she did with Paula on her Sirius radio show last night, where Abdul also claimed she's the victim of a three-way conspiracy to ruin her career -- and the perps are bigwigs at Fox, "Idol" and Simon Cowell himself.
"Idol" already added a fourth judge to the new season -- which, in Barbara's opinion, will be Paula's last.

Babwa Has to Bwing the Hammer Down
Sherri Shepherd looked for all the world like she was going to smack up Elisabeth Hasselbeck on "The View" this morning. Barbara Walters stopped her. Unfortunately. Discuss.
Race War Leaves Hasselbeck in Tears
We haven't really been paying close attention to "The View" since Rosie left -- but if Whoopi Goldberg keeps making Elisabeth Hasselbeck cry over the use of the N-word, we'll tune in more often.
