It's not Kathy Griffin. It's not Rosie O'Donnell. It's not even Perez Hilton.
Nope, as the daytime chat-fest launched its new season, it was Whoopi Goldberg joining the team to a standing ovation.
"Good morning, I'm Whoopi Goldberg," she said as the show began.
Will Whoopi start stirring up trouble, Rosie-style?
I guess we'll wait and see.

What is it with these people? Can we just put them all on Jerry Springer and be done with it? (Are they even still filming Jerry Springer? God I hope so.)
The latest in a long line of Lohans to air their dirty laundry to the media is Dina Lohan's boyfriend, Jim McMillan, who penned a scathing missive that ended up in the hands of Page Six. McMillan was responding to the allegations Michael Lohan made about Dina, accusing her of being a drug and alcohol abuser, and about Jim, claiming he was not safe to have around the children.
"First and foremost, I am a gentleman. I have never been inebriated in front of [the children] or said anything about a man I know nothing about. I did decide to learn about Michael Lohan and did a quick background check. The following is public record, fact and irrefutable: On 10/13/84, you struck, choked and kicked Susan L. Hubbard of Ohio, causing fractured facial bones.
In [New York], there are 10 arrest records found for securities fraud, DWI, assault, grand larceny . . . Dina has never been arrested or charged with anything.
Upon getting out of jail, you hire a publicist and start a smear campaign against your children's mom. You take a photo of her holding a water bottle at your daughter's premiere, and you call her a party mom. You . . . accuse her of being an alcoholic, a drug user, an unfit mom and a philanderer.
You do it in a very public way and force them to deal with the fallout. If you want to assassinate someone's character, leave Dina alone. She is way out of your league. She is a classy, intelligent, loving mom . . ."
You people are the very definition of class. I can't understand at all why Lindsay is the way she is. />What is it with these people? Can we just put them all on Jerry Springer and be done with it? (Are they even still filming Jerry Springer? God I hope so.)

Before launching into "Winter" at a Florence show in late May, Tori sang an impromptu song about the trials and tribulations of Lindsay Lohan.
This was before her most recent run-in with the cops!
Tori is so prescient.
I love her!!! />

I guess the whole acting thing didn't take, not in the long run, so now he's directing.
His latest film is called Run, Fat Boy, Run -- written by the hilarious Michael Ian Black -- and it premiered in London yesterday. ...
Ever careful not to be photographed with alcohol, B Spears hits up the Las Vegas opening of LAX. (The club, not the airport.)
Yeah, homegirl looks dry as a bone.
With Criss Angel in tow.
Nicky Hilton showed up, too.

No, not to each other.
Kate Walsh married that film exec at Fox who she got engaged to five minutes ago after the two dated for ten minutes. I give this marriage a few months. The two got hitched in Ojai, with Katherine Heigl, T.R. Knight, Chandra Wilson, James Pickens Jr., Justin Chambers and Shonda Rhimes in attendance. If you can believe it, Isaiah Washington missed the festivities.
Giuliana DePandi got hitched to Bill Rancic, the first winner of The Apprentice. The two got engage...
Proving yet again that a baby can't save a marriage, Heath Ledger and Michelle Williams "quietly and amicably split a few weeks ago."
According to a source, "The relationship had been rocky recently. They tried very hard to make it work but finally decided to separate. They just grew apart ... They have a beautiful daughter and they are both committed to being great parents."
Their daughter, Mathilda, is 23 months old. ...

The perpetually dreadlocked Counting Crows frontman took his shirt off in dangerous proximity to a Splash News camera man.
I know, I know. He's a little flabby. He's a little pale. He's getting really old. But I refuse to give up on my dream!
One day, I will have sex with Adam Duritz. And then we'll get married and have lots of babies and he'll write songs about me and it will be fabulous.
Counting Crows' new album -- the first once since 2002's Hard Candy -- will be released Nove...
Looks like the big "comeback" album is dropping November 13, just a few days after the one-year anniversary of her filing for divorce from K-Fed.
That's also the same day Celine Dion's releasing her new album.
Somehow I don't think either of them will be much competition for the other.
Not that I'll be buying either. Don't get me wrong, I'll be listening to Britney's album. In my heart of hearts, I'll always be rooting for Brit-Brit. But I'm sure the whole thing will leak online weeks be...
Plus, it's always reassuring to know that even reality TV stars are not immune to those really annoying zits right under your nose.
Leaving Opera in Hollywood last night.
Sounds like we have a new hot-spot, kids. Everyone's been spotted there this week.
