Jan 31st Recap
Jane Krakowski, of NBC’s 30 Rock, appeared as the guest host today. Jane, who started her acting career in the theater, said that since her success on television, with Ally McBeal, she has been able to get better parts on Broadway. There were a couple of awkward moments during the hot topics segment when Joy Behar made comments about Jane’s former co-star Calista Flockhart’s weight. When talking about Grey’s Anatomy star Isaiah Washington going into rehab after calling a co-star a homophobic slur, Joy joked that is was common for people to hurl insults at their co-stars. She asked Jane if she ever called Calista a “skinny bitch.”
Elisabeth Hasselbeck wore a “Be Ugly” t-shirt, part of the Ugly Betty “Be Ugly 2007″ campaign, which partners with Girls, Inc. The goal of the campaign is to make women and girls feel good about themselves and feel beautiful, even if they don’t look like women in fashion magazines. Joy said that as a young girl, she always thought she was beautiful until she saw the women in magazines, and then she felt bad about herself. Joy jokingly compared the editors of Elle and Vogue to war criminals, because they are waging war against the women of America.
Mary Hart of Entertainment Tonight appeared to talk about her 25 years on the show, as well as discuss how February is women’s heart disease awareness month, sponsored by the American Heart Association’s “Go Red for Women” campaign. Heart disease is the number one killer of women in America. For more information about women and heart disease, visit the American Heart Association.
