A Grammy Award winning singer/songwriter has scrapped a scheduled appearance on Barbara Walter's "The View" because he doesn't want to be seen on the same stage as Elizabeth Hasselbeck.
Barry Manilow told TMZ.com that he "strongly disagrees" with Hasselbeck's views and that she is "dangerous and offensive."
This is the first time in the brief history of the show that a celebrity guest has demanded that one of the co-hosts be sidelined before a cameo appearance is made.
Manilow, who has been on the show before – he even gave Hasselbeck a hug once – scrapped the visit because, he said, someone needed to "stand up to these people."

Shut up and die works for me. Never did like the cream puff.
LOL!!
Somebody needs to take Barry out behind the barn and wack him with a stick.
“Girly” side? Manilow? Say it ain’t so!! LOL - his objection to Elisabeth Hasselbeck is that she’s more girly than he is, and he wanted to be the queen of the show. :-)
Say it ain’t so, Jack!
Well, I guess he won’t be wanting the MONEY of all those conservatives who want to see shows in Vegas. Everyone, choose ELSEWHERE. Barry doesn’t want you in the room with him. Let him sing Mandy for liberals only. Their loss.
“Now that I couldn’t tell you as I am probably the only person around who has never watched American Idol.”

Hehe...sorry, me neither. I had to be told who Simon was at the end of the movie ‘Shrek’. Of course, I am quite pious about this. The fact that we don’t know much about American Idol means we really have a life, right.
Well, then again, maybe not since I am posting on the internet at 1:15 AM. LOL
Sorry. I never heard the term ‘trouser pilot’. If it’s really bad, please don’t tell me.
Yep, do have a life but don’t have to work tomorrow so can do things I would normally not do very early on a Thursday morning. Such as...be awake at 1:21am...lol.
It's a pretty hilarious reference actually. Think "World Class Buggerer".
As far as being "really bad", I assure you, you don't want the "trousers" back... ; )
If he ain’t gay, he missed a sure bet! I think he might have been suffering from a permanent case of PMS, like most liberals do. I’ll bet his little prune-face got all scrunched up when he announced his no-show on the View.
Some of you people know WAY too much about “The View”....
LOL. They should tell him Hasselbeck won’t be there, and have her surpise stand in be Ann Coulter. He’s afraid of “dangerous and offensive”?
Ann’ll give him that.
Thirty-plus years ago when I was in high school we referred to Mr. Manilow as Barely Manenough. What a putz.
Geez, what a pissy little coward.
It looks series, there is a minor demonstration in Polk gulch San Francisco, right now! This is hugh.
