Jack Wagner, Sherri Shepherd, Maria Menounos, Gavin DeGraw and Melissa Gilbert will all be among those competing on Dancing With the Stars March 19.
A pair of sports stars - Green Bay Packers wideout Donald Driver and tennis legend Martina Navratilova - will also be lacing up their dancing shoes.
Sherri Shepherd is on Team Breezy.
The View host has been vocal in defense of Chris Brown before, so it's no surprise that she stood up for the star in the wake of this week's Grammy lovefest backlash.
Talk about a very Hot Topic...
On yesterday's installment of The View, co-host Whoopi Goldberg raised the issue of Republican Presidential candidate Rick Perry using a hunting camp whose named formerly had the N word in it. When Barbara Walters repeated the name of the camp (admitting it was "very hard" for her to even utter), Sherri Shepherd stepped in and objected:
Move over, Joy Behar and Steve Janowitz. You've got company. Her View co-host Sherri Shepherd and Lamar Sally also tied the knot this weekend!
Sherri and Lamar tied the knot at the Fairmont Hotel in Chicago, her hometown, on Saturday. Her 6-year-old son Jeffrey walked her down the aisle.
Every now and then, The View panelists actually engage in an interesting discussion.
Such was the case when the topic of Tracy Morgan, his recent anti-gay rant on stage and subsequent apology came up this week on the talk show.
Sherri Shepherd may be the host of The Newlywed Game, but she will also qualify as a contestant on that show in the near future: the TV personality got engaged to Lamar Sally on December 26!
A statement by Shepherd's rep details the lengths Sally went to for the occasion:
Sherri Shepherd is battling with GLADD these days over comments The View host made concerning HIV in the African-American community.
But that's not the only fight Shepherd is engaged in.
The feud between GLADD and The View is far from over.
On June 22, comedian D.L. Hughley co-hosted the ABC talk show. He and Sherri Shepherd got into a discussion about the prominence of HIV among African-Americans, both agreeing that it exists because gay black men ("on the down low") have sex with women.
This is a first: The View is facing controversy, and it's NOT over something Elisabeth Hasselbeck said.
In fact, that conservative commentator - whose most recent example of opinionated nonsense involved a shot at Erin Andrews - has nothing to do with why GLADD is taking aim at this ABC talk show.
We were all set to make fun of Sherri Shepherd.
The View co-host is the latest in a long line of celebrities to flaunt her lost weight on a magazine cover, sending a message to some that you're a failure if you haven't dropped many pounds, while also not acknowledging that money plays a major factor in these success stories (personal trainers, chefs, etc.).
We know Sherri Shepherd abhors all that Cookie Monster represents.
Absurd as that is, we know she puts her money where her mouth is.
It's a slow news week. Exhibit A? During yesterday's "Hot Topics" segment of The View, the panel got into a huge fight over none other than Cookie Monster.
Things got a bit testy as Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd discussed an upcoming healthy eating PSA on Sesame Street, in which Cookie Monster, the show's lovable, ravenous blue dessert fiend, is taught about the benefits of smart food choices.
Just a typical day on The View.
Barbara Walters wasn't pronouncing the letter R, Whoopi Goldberg sounded surprisingly level-headed, and best of all, Elisabeth Hasselbeck incurred the rage of Sherri Shepherd when she went on her latest diatribe against Barack Obama.
What panel member on The View does Barbara Walters consider more of a nuisance than Star Jones and Rosie O'Donnell?
The answer might surprise you, Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Read on to find out...
Sherri Shepherd made a successful debut on The View yesterday. In other words:
Unlike Whoopi Goldberg on her first day, Sherri did not defend Michael Vick. What did she have to say about the initial performance?
We wonder what criminal Sherri Shepherd will defend on her first day on The View.
A day after Whoopi Goldberg somehow stood up for Michael Vick during her premiere as a permanent host, it's been officially announced that Sheperd will join the gab fest next week.
Sorry, Rumer Willis, looks like you haven't been chosen as one of the new hosts on The View.
Two months after Rosie O'Donnell walked away from the show, speculation is rife that Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shepherd are about to be sitting in the hot seats permanently. The Los Angeles Times and People magazine report that a formal announcement is expected next week regarding these two comedians joining the ABC daytime gabfest.
There is good news and bad news for fans of The View:
We'll start with the good: Rosie O'Donnell is back from her vacation. Actually, some viewers may take that as bad. Let's try again:
She may have starred on the sitcom, Less Than Perfect, but it looks like Sherri Shepherd is the perfect candidate to fill the permanent fifth hosting spot on The View.
The actress has filled in for Rosie O'Donnell this week and reportedly made quite the impression.
