• Barbara Walters Wants Monica Lewinsky on 'The View'

    Could Monica Lewinsky really be contemplating coming to ABC's 'The View,' at least as a guest host? When that notion first started circulating last week, it was quickly squashed as just a rumor, but the fact is that the floundering chatfest needs a real shot in the arm if there is any hope of it being renewed for another season. Jenny McCarthy recently confirmed that one year after leaving, producers failed to convince her to return to the show, and there are not too many other names even being mentioned. As it turns out, Barbara Walters is pushing hard for Lewinsky to join the show in any capacity.
  • Ryan Seacrest, Jenny McCarthy Detail 'Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve'

    "Dick Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve" is a holiday tradition thath as been around since the 1970s. Unfortunately, the show's namesake died in 2012, but Ryan Seacrest and Jenny McCarthy have been carrying on the tradition ever since. This year will be bigger than ever, with more than five hours of music planned, featuring acts like Taylor Swift, One Direction and Elton John. The pair dished on what they are looking forward to the most tomorrow night, Dec. 31, during a press conference. "I think there are two incredible live moments that we're going to have here in New York. One is Taylor Swift celebrating the incredible year that she's had, live," Seacrest said, "Billboard" noted. "And then we're going out to Barclays Center [in Brooklyn] to Elton John, who will be standing by. This show has been going for decades, and this is the first time he's been on our show, so that's exciting for us." McCarthy added, "The fact that we've got so many artists this year makes it feel like it will be the best year yet. At rehearsals yesterday, the producers said, 'Without a doubt, this is our favorite show.'" Florida Georgia Line, Idina Menzel, MAGIC!, Iggy Azalea, Charli XCX, Meghan Trainor, Lady Antebellum and Gavin DeGraw are also set to perform.
