Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy Jump Back Into Vaccination Debate

Remember when Jim Carrey was just funny?
The French knight and ladylove Jenny McCarthy are speaking out again on behalf of their pet cause, the continuing quest to prove a link between childhood vaccinations and autism, an incredibly controversial issue that has scared many and polarized many more.
The latest thorn in their collective side is what they perceive to be the virulent smear on the character and work of British gastroenterologist Andrew Wakefield, who authored a landmark paper in 1998 about the possibility that 12 patients with autism and bowel disease were affected by their MMR vaccines.
According to Carrey and McCarthy, Wakefield is now having an awful time getting his current work published, for no good reason other than corporate treachery.
Kelly Clarkson Slams Taylor Swift's Boss for Lame Defense

It's about to get all music industry insidery up in here. Earlier today, Scott Borchetta, the head of Taylor Swift's record label, felt the need to defend his star from all those mean people calling out her lackluster Grammys night duet with Stevie Nicks.
Really, he just made the whole situation worse by issuing way too many excuses for something that really isn't an issue. A sampling: T.Swift's an emotional singer, not a technical one; she's the "voice of a generation"; critics just like to tear people down; there were also technical difficulties that made it hard for her to hear the mix; and "This is not American Idol. This is not a competition of getting up and seeing who can sing the highest note."
And that was the one that sent Kelly Clarkson over the edge and compelled her to let Mr. Borchetta have it...
Jimmy Kimmel Calls B.S. on "Sucker-Punching" Leno
As Jay Leno pleaded with Americans to stop hating him under the soft-focus lens of The Oprah Winfrey Show yesterday, Jimmy Kimmel's name came up. After all, Kimmel was the one who not only dressed up as Leno but also called him out to his face.
And so when Jimmy's great 10 @ 10 segment came up, Leno used the opportunity to tattle on Kimmel to Oprah: "Yeah, I got sucker-punched. It's my show; I could have edited it, but I said, 'No, no, put it out there.' You know when you get sucker-punched, you just get right back up again."
Well, you didn't think Jimmy was going to let that go without commenting on it, did you?
Not Even Oprah Can Stop America From Hating Jay
It's a familiar formula.
National scandal erupts, guilty party begins requisite if slightly disingenuous national tour of apology and, if he/she is really lucky (or really controversial), he/she ends up on Oprah Winfrey's couch.
But it takes a special kind of guy to elicit the acknowledgment from the otherwise Zen talk queen that not only does America pretty much hate you, but you've done the unthinkable: namely, disappointed Oprah herself.
Well, folks, today Jay Leno was that guy.
Jay Plays Victim as Oprah Joins Team Leno
Sure, Conan O'Brien lost his dream job in a career-undermining, confidence-destroying, very public and contract-breaching kind of way—but Jay Leno got his feelings hurt.
So, who's the victim now, hmmm?
Luckily, longtime Jay pal Oprah Winfrey gave the voiceless (save for that one-hour-a-night, five-nights-a-week) victim the opportunity to defend himself.
Suffice it to say, he didn't exactly rise to the challenge.
Kirstie Alley Bashes View Host on Twitter

Talk about your hot topics!
Kirstie Alley hasn't held much back when it comes to expressing her feelings about talk show host Joy Behar via Twitter.
"And WHY has Joy Behar turned into such a self righteous c---head? OOOOooo that's right…FOREVER!" the former Cheers star recently tweeted.
While the actress hasn't specifically stated what's made her so mad, it seems it might have something to do with Behar's handling of the Tiger Woods scandal on her HLN program, The Joy Behar Show…

Leno Talks Letterman, Keeps Quiet on CoCo
You can bet that Jay Leno was among the millions who tuned in for Conan O'Brien's Tonight Show swan song Friday. Not that he was ready to talk about it last night (hey, if your name's not Oprah, he's not chatting).
But everybody loves a good dog fight and, luckily, Leno didn't show quite as much discretion when asked about his once and future late-night rival David Letterman.
Team Obama Joins Team Leno?!

Timing is everything. Unfortunately, the White House's stinks.
How else to explain why President Obama's crew thought it would be a good idea to enlist Jay Leno—the reigning Most Hated Man in Prime Time Late Night—as the emcee of this year's White House Correspondents Association dinner?
David Hasselhoff: World's Best Dad?

Just because David Hasselhoff has had some major family problems—a very messy divorce from Pamela Bach, his battle with the booze, etc.—that doesn't mean he's not a good father.
So says the Hoff's 17-year-old daughter, Hayley...
Conan Should Have Seen It Coming; Howard, Artie, Norm Predicted Demise of "Redheaded Rube"
The regulars over on The Howard Stern Show have been called plenty of names over the years.
Modern-day Nostradamuses (Nostradami?) was never one of them. Until now.
Which is why it's all the more impressive that Artie Lange, go-to guest Norm MacDonald and, yes, even Howard himself, once took turns to warn a Late Night-era CoCo—rather prophetically, as it turns out—about the dangers that lay ahead.
Joel McHale Offers Conan O'Brien a New Job
Last night Joel McHale tried to rally Conan O'Brien since the soon-to-be ex-Tonight Show host is now officially out of a job. Yes, Conan does have an extra $33 million and the public's sympathy so he'll probably pull through just fine, but that doesn't mean he's not still in need of cheering up!
All Joel could really offer was a gig cohosting The Soup. And while Conan's hero Johnny Carson never had to host a basic cable clips show, when Joel lists the perks—making Ryan Seacrest short jokes and hitting Bruce Jenner in the face until candy comes out—it doesn't sound that bad. It is the only job at E! where you can openly make fun of the homegrown talent, which has to count for something, right?

It's Over: Conan Officially Out, Jay Back In at Tonight
NBC Photo: Mitchell Haaseth
Conan O'Brien's Tonight Show is officially yesterday's news.
After weeks of behind-the-scenes maneuvering, public insult swapping and some of the sharpest hours of late-night in the medium's history, NBC has officially parted ways with Team CoCo, reinserting Jay Leno as host of The Tonight Show.
O'Brien will bid the gig adieu tomorrow night, and Leno will return to captain the late-night talker on March 1.
