Barry Manilow Disses Elisabeth Hasselback

Add Barry Manilow to the list of people who do not like Elisabeth Hasselback. Manilow was supposed to do ‘The View’ tomorrow but has decided to back out because he did not want her interiewing him.

“I wanted to let you know that I will no longer be on The View tomorrow as scheduled. I had made a request that I be interviewed by Joy, Barbara or Whoopi but not Elisabeth Hasselback. Unfortunately, the show was not willing to accommodate this simple request, so I bowed out.”

“It’s really too bad, because I’ve always been a big supporter of the show, but I cannot compromise my beliefs. The good news is that I will be on a whole slew of other shows promoting the new album, so I hope you can catch me on those.”

I hear ya Barry. I’m not compromising my belief that Elisabeth is an annoying biotch too, but I’m not sure you can turn down any publicity you’re getting these days.
