Kanye West has apologized twice on his blog and again last night on Jay Leno -- but according to Taylor Swift, she still hasn't heard a word from him personally.

Swift was on "The View" just moments ago and says she was "rattled" by West's stage rush ... but added she would be willing to meet and call a truce.

An NFL announcer just took a cruel and cheap shot at Whoopi Goldberg -- live during a Detroit Lions football game.

During the first quarter of the Lions game today, the announcer, Chris Myers was talking about a player who was on the Pittsburgh Steelers last season but now plays for Detroit. He said, "Going from two Super Bowls in Pittsburgh to the winless Detroit team -- that's like going from dating Beyonce to Whoopi Goldberg."
So the question is ...

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.

What's the one phrase that can get mild-mannered Danny Glover doubled over? Well, if you're a photog with a lot of balls, and you've seen "The Color Purple," you might know that it sounds a little like this:
"What's it like to be the only person to wear the pants in a relationship with Oprah?"

Too bad Whoopi Goldberg was the woman he was shacked up with in the movie ...

Whoopi Goldberg didn't say much about her "Ghost" co-star Patrick Swayze -- but it was all we needed to hear.

Prancing around with a lottery ticket and a pair of sensible Dorothy clogs, Whoopi Goldberg was quite the view in NYC on Monday.

The 52-year-old-Oscar-winner-turned-morning-talk-show-host knows it's all about matching your smokes to your footwear.
Smoking may kill, but it's the shoes that are murder.

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.

Oscar winner-turned-"View" co-host Whoopi Goldberg (left) -- and Chic singer-turned-prolific music producer (Madonna, Duran Duran) Nile Rodgers (right).

One of them is a man.

Comedian Whoopi Goldberg has put down the mic to venture into another line of work -- selling her line of bed sheets on QVC! Wait, WTF??
Whoopi explained the inspiration behind the design of her luxurious cotton bed sheets -- the monster tattoo of a dragon on her right shoulder. Again, WTF?!

It's not quite as glaring as Brad Renfro's omission from the in memoriam montage, but Whoopi Goldberg got teary this morning on "The View" over getting left off the Oscar-host clip reel -- even though she's hosted four times.
Barbara Walters wondered if she was left out because she was included in an Oscar-winner's reel, and pointed out that Steve Martin was also left out. But the waterworks started when she thanked the rest of the "View" crew for "making up" for the diss.

The place to be in New York this weekend wasn't Butter or Marquee or Tenjune -- it was the brand new Apple store on West 14th Street. For the love of Jobs!
The new Mac emporium opened Friday night, and celeb shoppers snatching up the latest iPod toys included TMZ fan Whoopi Goldberg, "Sex and the City" hunk Jason Lewis, fan-favorite Mary J. Blige, "CSI" hottie Melina Kanakaredes and Oliver Platt.
Fresh copping a plea in her DUI case, Vivica A. Fox was also geeking out in NY, spotted leaving a Dell store in midtown -- though she wasn't too talkative. And for once, we spotted Ice-T and his usually spanktacular wife Coco, not talking about her booty.

Two giants of comedy walk into a Patagonia store, and what comes out? Dye job advice.
Robin Williams met up with pal Whoopi Goldberg in SoHo last night, and they did a little shopping with Robin's daughter Zelda -- and not much else. Whoopi seemed totally whupped after a long day, and packed it in early.
But even more startling was when Whoop noticed our photog's newly blackened hair, and told him to go back to his natural blond. This, from someone who has looked exactly the same since 1982.

Denzel Washington, ever the gentleman, doesn't mind signing autographs -- as long as it's just one per person.
Such was his output, as TMZ observed, when he gave out his Johnny Hancock after a taping of "Regis and Kelly" in New York. Meanwhile, Vince Vaughn wouldn't give an eager fan his scribble, blaming it on the trailing paps. Kanye West was more obliging outside of the Mercer Hotel, where the orange-tastic chef Mario Batali got stuck behind a constipated cab. Elsewhere around the Big Apple, Kelly Ripa, Whoopi Goldberg, and Josh Hartnett made their rounds.
Finally, TMZ was there as pop princess Samantha Cole celebrated her birthday, rolling up in absolutely blingerrific style in a Bentley that almost -- but not quite -- upstaged the b-day girl, replete with $4 million in diamond trim.
