Sara Haines Signs on for The View
Sara Haines is ready to share her view with the world.
(See what we did there?)
The reporter – who had been serving as lifestyle anchor for Good Morning America Weekend and also as a correspondent for ABC News – has officially signed on as the latest panelist on The View.
She will make her debut this September as the newest member of an ever-rotating cast of occasionally funny characters.
Earlier this month, Whoopi Goldberg signed a new deal to remain lead emcee of the program, which will also bring back Joy Behar and Paula Faris.
Michelle Collins only lasted one year on the series, while it’s unclear at the moment whether Raven-Symoné or Candace Cameron-Bure will be retained.
So, what do we know about Sara Haines?
She was born and raised in Newton, Iowa and she’s the second of four kids.
A 2000 graduate of Smith College in Northampton, Massachusetts, Haines has a degree in Government and actually played both basketball and volleyball for the school.
Haines kicked off her reporting career as part of NBC’s Page Program, eventually becoming Today’s fourth hour contributing correspondent, a role she departed in 2013.
This is when she joined ABC.
On a personal level, Haines lives in Brooklyn… has two chihuahuas … is married to Max Shifrin … and welcomed a son into the world this March.
Will she make you more likely to watch The View?
Less money?
Or do you not care at all at this point?

Ray Rice: I"ll Donate My ENTIRE SALARY to Charity If An NFL Team Signs Me!
Back in 2014, shocking footage of then-Baltimore Ravens running back Ray Rice punching his wife, Janay Palmer, was obtained by TMZ.
Though league officials were previously aware that a violent incident involving Rice and Palmer had occurred, the three-time Pro Bowler was initially punished with a modest two-game suspension.
However, when the footage of Rice brutally knocking out his then-fiancee went public, the Ravens terminated his contract, and league commissioner Roger Goodell announced a change in NFL policy with regard to domestic violence charges.
Rice has made efforts to atone for his horrific act, but it seems that the incident may have effectively ended his career.
Now, Rice is making what seems to be a last-ditch effort to get signed by an NFL team in time for the 2016 season.
In an interview with USA Today, the 29-year-old pledged to donate his entire salary to charity if he lands a new contract:
“All the scrutiny that I’ve got, it was deserved, because domestic violence is a horrible thing,” Rice says.
“Me donating my salary is something that’ll be from the heart for me. I only want to play football so I can end it the right way for my kids and for the people that really believed in me.”
He added that the pledge is not being offered as an incentive, but rather as proof to the league and its fans of how much he’s changed:
“I’m not saying I’d be [donating the salary] to get on the field, but it’s something that will show where my heart is. My heart is about finishing the right way and helping people along the way.”
As a seventh-year veteran, Rice’s minimum salary would be $ 885,000.
Having not set foot on an NFL field for the past two seasons, Rice stated in a recent interview that he’s aware of the fact that his window of opportunity for a comeback is closing rapidly.
So this may not be Rice’s attempt to bribe his way back into the league, as some detractors have claimed, but it’s certainly an act of desperation from a man who knows he has few options left.

Whoopi Goldberg Signs New Deal on The View
BREAKING NEWS:
Someone is actually sticking around The View.
Following months of contract negotiations and public speculation, Whoopi Goldberg has announced via Twitter that she will return for the show’s 20th season.
“Ok NOW it’s official, I have re-upped for 1 year returning to @TheView 4 the 2016/2017 season,” Whoopi wrote earlier today, adding:
“Will continue 2 annoy some, delight others.”
At least she knows her audience and her standing with them, right?
Goldberg, of course, has been one of the few steady cast members on The View over the past several years.
That show changes panelists more often than Kim Kardashian changes filters on her Instagram account. (Or some better metaphor.)
As it currently stands, Joy Behar and Paula Farisare already committed next season, while regular contributor Sara Haines is in talks to join the round table.
There’s no word yet on the statuses of Raven-Symoné or Candace Cameron-Bure, however.
Just last month, meanwhile, it was announced that Michelle Collins would be leaving the program.
She became the latest series casualty in the process. Just consider:
Rosie O’Donnell has come and gone twice over the last few years.
Then there was Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy, neither of whom lasted very long.
But they at least stuck around longer than Rosie Perez, who was on the show for approximately 129 minutes.
Are you glad Goldberg is staying? Are you upset? Could you not care any less?
And can you imagine the ratings increase if one of the following stars snagged a seat at The View table?

Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 3 Recap: Thanksgiving Drama ... or Signs of Hope?
What went down on Sister Wives Season 7 Episode 3? A whole lot of drama regarding Thanksgiving and much deeper issues, that’s what.
If you watch Sister Wives online, you know what the Browns have been going through lately, and if you know families in general, well …
Let’s just say the holidays have a unique way of bringing out the best – but also the worst, and the most dramatic – in just about everyone.
When you see Meri and Janelle Brown clash over Thanksgiving, in other words, you’re seeing the result of more deep seated issues.
The catfish scandal fallout is something that will likely play out on TV – and behind closed doors – for months if not years out in Nevada.
Still, in the wake of all that, there are signs of hope.
Focusing on Thanksgiving not long after the Browns’ therapy session was probably good timing, but the occasion meant its own stressors.
Meri and Janelle joined forces to create the elaborate place settings for the 70+ Thanksgiving dinner attendees … oh yes, seventy plus.
Janelle worked hard to accommodate Meri’s plans, and with a gracious attitude to boot, all in spite of their shared history with Kody.
No matter what she’s been through, Janelle seems to want a real friendship, even a deeper relationship, with her #1 sister wife, Meri.
Of all the Sister Wives, she’s the least likely to be thrown off by whatever drama Kody has going on, and the most likely to stay level-headed.
In a sense, she’s the glue keeping them together.
Most notably at all, Janelle took the time to express how thankful she is that Meri is with them for the holiday after all she’s been through.
That kind of selflessness can’t be ignored.
Bottom line: Janelle may not always feel like she gets adequate attention, or love, or whatever you want to call it from her fellow wives.
Instead of withdrawing, she goes out of her way to remind them just how much they mean to her and assure them that they’re in it together.

Madonna Busted For Posting Fake Parking Signs Outside NYC Home
Madge has been under a lot of stress lately, in her case against ex-husband Guy Ritchie over custody of their teenage son, Rocco.
So you can’t blame her for going a little nuts over parking privileges in front of her $ 40 million townhouse on New York’s Upper East Side.
Sources tell TMZ that Madonna and her team basically made up their own rules when it came to public parking spots. Someone posted “Tenant Parking Only” signs, sprayed “NO PARKING” warnings on the curb, then painted said curb yellow.
One of Madonna’s neighbors thought this was a little weird/wrong and got in touch with the Department of Transportation, who sent an agent over to the singer’s home on March 23rd to assess the situation.
Guess what? The signs were fake, and Madonna’s people were instructed to remove the signs immediately.
TMZ spoke to the whistle-blowing neighborhood, who explained that when she asked a man standing outside Madonna’s home (where 3 SUVs were parked) about the signs, he said “We know the right people.”
If by the right people you mean the sales associates in Home Depot’s sign department, then yes, yes you do.
No one is exempt from city parking laws.

Kylie Jenner Defies Kanye West, Signs Deal With Puma
The last few weeks have seen so many insane Kanye West Twitter rants that it’s tough to keep track of them all.
But amongst all the usual Kanye bluster and BS, one of the more memorable tirades was directed at Puma, and featured Kanye informing the sneaker company that he basically owns Kylie Jenner.
Apparently, Kanye caught wind of the fact that Kylie had been offered a seven-figure endorsement deal by the popular brand.
As you may know, Kanye designs hideous sneakers that are manufactured by Adidas, and he saw Kylie’s new opportunity as a conflict of interest.
So, as he does when he feels he’s been publicly disrespected (or when he gets mayo on his BLT, even though he TOTALLY SAID NO MAYO, BRUH!!!”), Kanye took to Twiter to express his seething outrage:
“1000% there will never be a Kylie Puma anything. That’s on my family! 1000% Kylie is on Yeezy team!!!” quoth Yeezus.
“Puma we gone give you your measly million dollars back!!! Never try to divide the family!!!”
Yes, the man went full-Don Corleone over some freakin’ sneakers, and apparently his over-reaction did not go over well with the Kard clan.
Maybe it was Kylie’s way of asserting her independence, or Kris’ way of reminding Kanye that she owns Kylie, but for whatever reason, Kylie reportedly went right ahead and signed with Puma.
We would give Kylie props for making Kanye look stupid, but it was more like an assist.
As usual, he did a fine job of making himself look like an idiot.

Kim Kardashian, Kanye West Show Signs of Relationship Trouble on Recent Date
Earlier this week, several media outlets reported that Kim Kardashian had hired a divorce attorney without Kanye West’s knowledge.
We dismissed the rumor as typical tabloid BS, and we still don’t think Kim and ‘Ye are headed for a divorce – but that doesn’t mean they’re not experiencing problems.
According to Radar Online the Wests recently stepped out for what was supposed to be a low-key date at Kenmore 75 in Manhattan.
As is usually the case, however, they attracted the notice of dozens of other patrons, many of whom observed that the couple did not seem terribly smitten with one another.
“They were just very distant towards one another the entire time they were there,” says one onlooker. “They honestly acted like they could not be bothered with each other.”
Another witness described Kimye as looking “tense and unhappy.”
The couple was eventually joined by Kim’s sister Kourtney and best friend, Jonathan Cheban.
Sources say Kim and Yeezy seemed to lighten up once company arrived.
Rumors of marital trouble between Kardashian and West seem to surface at least once a week, but this time around they seem more legit, as there’s ample evidence to suggest that Kim was not happy with Kanye’s attack on Wiz Khalifa and his 2-year-old child during a recent Twitter rant.
Could it be that Kim is finally getting as sick of Kanye as the rest of the world has been for years?

Jon Stewart Signs Massive Deal With HBO
Fans of Jon Stewart need not worry that they won’t see him as much since he left The Daily Show in August (having hosted since 1999).
According to TVLine, Stewart inked a four-year production deal with HBO that includes a “short-form digital content” focused on current events through Stewart’s “unique prism,” which he will both produce and star in.
The deal also includes “a first-look option for other film and TV” projects.
“Jon Stewart led a revolution that changed the face of TV comedy on The Daily Show,” HBO president Michael Lombardo said in a statement. “He graced our network nearly 20 years ago, so we’re thrilled to welcome back his immense talents in this next chapter of his career.”
Stewart also released a statement on the deal. “I’m so excited to be working with Richard [Plepler], Michael and the entire HBO family,” he said. “Appearing on television 22 minutes a night clearly broke me. I’m pretty sure I can produce a few minutes of content every now and again.”
This isn’t the first time Stewart has worked with HBO; he had a recurring role on the Larry Sanders Show, hosted George Carlin: 40 Years of Comedy, as well as his own stand-up show, Jon Stewart: Unleavened.

Lamar Odom: Awake, Talking, Showing MAJOR Signs of Improvement!
Good news about Lamar Odom’s remarkable recovery continues to pour in, as TMZ reports today that Odom is awake and communicating with doctors and family members.
One hospital source even claims that Odom is “speaking sentences” and text messaging with friends.
On Tuesday, Odom was found unconscious in his suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Pahrump, Nevada.
He was taken to a Las Vegas hospital where doctors determined that Odom had overdosed on a cocktail of drugs. Initial reports indicated that the 35-year-old former NBA star was unlikely to ever regain consciousness.
Miraculously, Odom began to show significant signs of improvement on Friday afternoon.
Odom reportedly opened his eyes when doctors removed his breathing tube, and he was taken off life support shortly thereafter.
Insiders say Lamar is far from out of the woods, but he’s currently doing considerably better than expected.
Though he remains hooked up to a dialysis machine and has almost certainly suffered at least mild brain damage, Odom is now expected to pull through.
Less than 48 hours ago, those closest to the former reality star were said to be bracing themselves for news of his death.
We’ll keep you updated on Odom’s condition as more details become available.

Lamar Odom Shows Signs of Life as Heart Function Improves!
Some good news out of Sunrise Hospital in Las Vegas today, as TMZ is reporting that after nearly three days in a coma, Lamar Odom is showing signs of life.
Hospital insiders say doctors have cautioned that Odom’s chances of recovering remain slim, but they’re encouraged by the fact that his heart is beating on its own and its condition seems to have improved dramatically in just the last 24 hours.
As you’ve probably heard, Odom was found unconscious in his VIP suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Nevada on Tuesday night.
He has remained in a coma ever since, and yesterday, it was widely reported that Odom had been declared brain dead.
It’s unclear whether those reports were inaccurate, or if Odom was misdiagnosed, but the fact that his heart is beating on its own can be taken as an indication that some brain function remains.
Unfortunately, several of Lamar’s organs are still badly damaged – possibly beyond repair – and he is still hooked up to a ventilator and a dialysis machine.
Sources say doctors have encouraged visitors to remain as calm and quiet as possible in hopes of maintaining an environment that will be ideal for healing.
We’ll have updates on Lamar’s condition as more information becomes available.

Lamar Odom Shows Signs of Cocaine and Opiate Use, Source Claims
Last night, Lamar Odom was found unconscious inside his VIP suite at Dennis Hof’s Love Ranch in Nevada.
Currently, Odom is comatose and in critical condition. Sources say he is unable to breathe on his own and his heart and kidneys are failing.
Sadly, a full recovery is looking increasingly unlikely, and friends, family and doctors are working to figure out how the 35-year-old former NBA star wound up in this state.
Lamar has a history of addiction, and sources are now telling TMZ that he had visible track marks on his arms when he was brought to the hospital.
Subsequent tests reportedly revealed that Odom had cocaine and opiates in his system.
Love Ranch insiders initially stated that Odom seemed relaxed and happy at the beginning of his stay, but became withdrawn and moody over the past 48 hours.
Sources close to Odom believe his relapse was triggered by watching Keeping Up With the Kardashians on Sunday night.
We may never know for certain if that was the case, but the timing of the episode coincides with the reports of Odom’s abrupt change in demeanor.
As of this writing, hospital sources say they’re uncertain if Odoam will ever regain consciousness. We’ll keep you updated as more information becomes available.

French Montana and Sanaa Lathan -- Clear Signs of Movin" On
Z STAFF
EXCLUSIVE
French Montana and Sanaa Lathan seemed to have clarified things before the rumors could even be substantiated … it sure seems they’re NOT together.
We got French outside Hooray Henry’s in West Hollywood Friday night and he skirted questions about dating Sanaa but was super complimentary of her.
For Sanaa’s part, she was outside Playhouse in Hollywood and got pretty handsy with “The Wire” star Michael K. Williams.
Love and rumors … both fleeting.
