Rosie Leaving The View!
NEW YORK (AP) -- Rosie O'Donnell has fought her last fight at "The View." ABC said Friday she won't be back on the show following her angry confrontation with co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck on Wednesday. O'Donnell asked for, and received, an early exit from her contract. She was due to leave "The View" in mid-June. "Rosie contributed to one of our most exciting and successful years at 'The View,' " show creator Barbara Walters said. "I am most appreciative. Our close and affectionate relationship will not change." In a statement, O'Donnell said she was grateful. "It's been an amazing year and I love all three women." Presumably, that includes Hasselbeck. The two exchanged bitter words on Wednesday over O'Donnell's opposition to the war in Iraq. They've frequently had snippy political exchanges during O'Donnell's year on the daytime chatfest, but never as long and loud as that one.

The Sims...Movie
20th Century Fox has purchased the rights to a live-action version film of the mega-popular computer game "The Sims." The computer game is the best-selling of all time with a whopping $1.6 billion in sales worldwide.
Fox says it will be live-action.
The Sims is a simulated computer game where players determine the careers, love lives, family lives and even personality of the characters in the game.
The creators won't have a hard time finding actors for this crap. Most actors in Hollyweird have no emotion and are basic robots. I hope The Sims movie turns out as well as Super Mario Bros. the Movie. Source

Is homophobe Isaiah Washington leaving Grey's Anatomy??
Kristen at E! is reporting...
I've now heard from various reliable sources that Isaiah has been taking meetings in New York and Los Angeles in search of a new job that would take place during the coming TV season, so it certainly appears that Isaiah's Grey's days are over. Insiders at ABC tell me "not everyone will be coming back" to Grey's this fall, and although T.R. Knight's fate was also left hanging in the balance after the season finale, I'm hearing he's gonna be back (gotta wrap up that love triangle, not to mention his betrothed is the new chief resident!) but like I said, Isaiah looks to be a goner.

Readin', writin' and Scientology
Is Scientology being taught in public schools?
With the help of John Travolta, educational techniques developed by Scientology founder L. Ron Hubbard are being used in a Louisiana public school, according to Florida’s St. Petersburg Times.
In the mayhem that followed Hurricane Katrina, Celebrity Scientologists, including Travolta and Isaac Hayes, “played key roles” in persuading Prescott Middle School in Louisiana to adopt a Hubbard program called Applied Scholastics, reports the St. Petersburg Times.
Defenders of the program say that students’ scores have improved since it has been put in use — and insist that Applied Scholastics has nothing to do with Scientology, other than the man who created it.
Critics, however, disagree. Teaching the studying technique is “covert religious instruction” Dave Touretsky, a research professor at Carnegie Mellon University, told the Times, and he said that using it in schools could be unconstitutional. Source

You know those Scientology wingnuts will sue.
An aspiring starlet who wants to lose her virginity on camera is taking Katee Holmes as her nom de porn, and Katie Holmes isn't liking it one bit. The young Katee says that taking Mrs. Cruise's name is a "tribute to Katie," according to Page Six, because Katie has always portrayed "an innocence" in everything she's done. (Except that topless scene in "The Gift," of course.) The fake Katee is planning to lose it on camera, among other activities, and Katie and husband Cruise are reportedly considering their options against the young "Holmes."
He needs to come out already.
Kevin Spacey takes another tiptoe past the gay rumors in the June issue of Gotham magazine. "I'm living my life how I choose," says the actor, who was feted by the mag at Buddha Bar last night. "In no way, shape, or form am I hiding, or am I terrified. I'm having the time of my life living my life. … I don't think any degree of bizarre social pressure or media intrusion [means] I have to participate."
