Is The View being canceled? Joy Behar's ‘hiatus' remark fuels speculation
A recent on-air remark from The View co-host Joy Behar has stirred speculation about the future of the long-running daytime talk show. The View co-host Joy Behar said the show is about to go on 'hiatus."(X) What did Joy Behar say? During Thursday's episode, the 82-year-old co-host casually mentioned that the show is about to go on 'hiatus,' prompting viewers to question whether it might be canceled. 'Before we go on hiatus, we only have one more show after this,' Behar said, before glancing off-camera and asking, 'I'm allowed to say that, right?' Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin joked in response, 'Too late now." Is The View being canceled? Despite the online chatter, Behar's comment appears to refer to the show's annual summer break, not a cancellation. At the end of the episode, co-host Whoopi Goldberg reassured viewers that The View would return for a new season in September. The show often takes a short hiatus around the Fourth of July, and again in late summer before launching its fall season. The hosts recently returned from a weeklong break on July 7. Online Reactions Despite this, Behar's comment sparked confusion on social media, with some viewers mistakenly interpreting the hiatus as a sign that the show is being canceled.

Stephen Colbert's Late Night Show cancellation leads to Daily Show speculation Political backlash and timing The speculation came just a day after the White House issued a scathing statement attacking Behar. White House spokesperson Taylor Rogers criticized Behar for comments she made on Wednesday's show, where she said President Donald Trump is "jealous" of Barack Obama. "Joy Behar is an irrelevant loser suffering from a severe case of Trump Derangement Syndrome," Rogers said in a statement to Entertainment Weekly. Rogers went on to say, "It's no surprise that "The View's" ratings hit an all-time low last year. [Behar] should self-reflect on her own jealousy of President Trump's historic popularity before her show is the next to be pulled off air."

‘How dare you?': Stephen Colbert responds to Trump's gloating over show's cancellation
In a blistering monologue that blended satire with raw emotion, Stephen Colbert addressed the cancellation of The Late Show and fired back at former U.S. President Donald Trump, who had publicly praised CBS for 'taking a good stand' in pulling the plug on Colbert's late-night programme. Advertisement 'How dare you, sir?' Colbert said, with faking anger. 'Would an untalented man be able to compose the following satirical witticism?' Cueing up a segment titled 'Eloquence Cam', Colbert then glared into the camera, adopted a thick New York accent, and delivered an unambiguous message: 'Go f**k yourself.' The explicit word was censored for broadcast, but the sentiment rang loud and clear. Colbert Makes Sure That Trump Steers Clear from the Other Late Night Show Hosts Colbert wasn't done. He referenced Trump's social media remark that 'Jimmy Kimmel is next,' and replied with biting sarcasm: 'Nope, no, no. Absolutely not. Kimmel, I am the martyr. There's only room for one on this cross. And the view is fantastic from up here. I can see your house!' Advertisement Opening the show with a sardonic take on so-called cancel culture, Colbert remarked, 'Folks, I'm gonna go ahead and say it: Cancel culture has gone too far. Over the weekend, it sunk in that they're killing off our show. But they made one mistake: They left me alive.' He went on to declare that for the remaining ten months of The Late Show, the 'gloves are off,' adding, 'I can finally speak unvarnished truth to power and say what I really think about Donald Trump, starting right now.' Then, with a comic pause, he offered a deliberately tame critique: 'I don't care for him. Doesn't have the skillset to be president. Not a good fit, that's all.' What Happened to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert The announcement of The Late Show's impending end was first made during the taping on Thursday, July 17, with Colbert informing the studio audience and the wider world shortly after via a video release. He revealed he had learned of CBS's decision the previous evening. Advertisement While expressing regret over the show's cancellation, Colbert took a gracious tone towards the network. 'It is a fantastic job,' he told his audience. 'I wish somebody else was getting it.' He added, 'The folks at CBS have been great partners.' Monday night's episode featured appearances from actors Sandra Oh—of 'Grey's Anatomy' and 'Killing Eve' fame—and Dave Franco, known for films such as 'Now You See Me', 'Together', and 'The Disaster Artist'.

Dakota Johnson narrowly avoids wardrobe malfunction with daring outfit choice
Dakota Johnson nearly had a wardrobe malfunction during a late-night TV appearance. On Monday's episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," Johnson — who was wearing a black mini-dress with a plunging neckline — instantly regretted her decision. "Oh God," said Johnson, who was promoting her new film, "Materialists." "This is the wrong outfit." "No, no. I think it's perfect, you look great," Fallon said. "Just don't move." "My eyes are up here," she joked. A dazed and confused Fallon playfully looked up to the ceiling and said, "I don't know what to do. I'm confused." After the TV host redirected the conversation, Johnson was still concerned about the possible malfunction. "Tell me if there's a problem," she said. "Right now, there's not a problem," Fallon quipped. "There's almost a problem, but not quite — it's just… everything is going according to plan." "Does anyone have like, a blanket I could wear?" Johnson asked. Fallon handed Johnson a tissue that she placed in her cleavage. "That's perfect. No one will even know the difference!" said Fallon. "You look great!" One year ago, the actress suffered another wardrobe malfunction while appearing on "Jimmy Kimmel Live." "Dakota, your dress just came unhooked," Kimmel said to Johnson, who tried to maintain her poise as she clutched the detached metal strap of her black dress. "Should I get some scotch tape?" Kimmel inquired. "My dress just - it just fell off," Johnson said, astounded, but with a smile on her face. "It seems to be hanging in all right?" Kimmel countered. "Well, I'll just hold it," Johnson said, continuing the conversation in stride. "Just hold the important part," Kimmel joked. Johnson cheekily placed her hands on her chest, much to the amusement of the audience. "The movie is really good," she noted.

George Santos Sentenced to Over 7 Years in Prison for Fraud and Identity Theft
Disgraced former U.S. Rep. George Santos, who lied about his life story and defrauded donors, was sentenced Friday to over seven years in prison, sobbing as he heard his punishment. Santos, who pleaded guilty last summer to federal wire fraud and aggravated identity theft, appealed for mercy, telling a court through tears that he was 'humbled' and 'chastised' and realized he had betrayed his constituents' trust. More from The Hollywood Reporter Jimmy Kimmel Reacts to "Preposterous" George Santos Lawsuit George Santos Talks Donald Trump, Hermès and Political Future in Interview With Ziwe: "I'll Be Back" Jimmy Kimmel Says George Santos Is Demanding $20,000 for Showing Cameos on Late Night Show 'I offer my deepest apologies,' he said, adding: 'I cannot rewrite the past, but I can control the road ahead.' U.S. District Court Judge Joanna Seybert evidently wasn't convinced. 'Where is your remorse? Where do I see it?' she asked as she sentenced him to 87 months behind bars. She said the former politician appeared to feel that 'it's always someone else's fault.' The New York Republican served in Congress barely a year before his House colleagues ousted him in 2023. He admitted to deceiving donors and stealing the identities of nearly a dozen people, including his family members, to fund his winning campaign. As part of a plea deal, Santos has agreed to pay roughly $580,000 in penalties in addition to prison time. The 36-year-old didn't respond to reporters' shouted questions as he walked into a Long Island courthouse, but he told The Associated Press on Thursday that he was resigned to his fate. 'I'm doing as well as any human being would be doing given the circumstances,' Santos wrote in a text message, adding that he was 'ready to face the music.' Prosecutors sought the 87-month sentence, questioning Santos' remorse in light of his recent social media posts casting himself as a victim of prosecutorial overreach. Prosecutor Ryan Harris said some of Santos' victims were 'extremely vulnerable,' including a woman with brain damage and two octogenarian men who have dementia. Santos has said in recent days that he has no intention of paying back victims promptly, Harris noted. 'People think of this as a victimless crime because it's about money. There are many victims in this crime,' added New York Labor Commissioner Roberta Reardon. She addressed the court as a victim because Santos collected unemployment benefits while employed by a Florida company. Santos' lawyers had called for a two-year prison stint, the mandatory minimum sentence for aggravated identity theft. Defense lawyer Andrew Mancilla portrayed the ex-congressman as a troubled figure forged by adversity. Santos, who has no prior criminal record, grew up in a 'broken house' and was subjected to bullying throughout his life, the attorney said. As a result, 'he built the man he wanted to be, not who he was,' Mancilla said. 'He did that because he believed that the world would not accept him for who he was.' 'Deep down, he is warm, kind, caring, and thoughtful,' Mancilla said. But, the lawyer said, now 'everyone hates George Santos.' Santos was elected in 2022, flipping a wealthy district representing parts of Queens and Long Island for the GOP. Soon after, it was revealed that the political unknown had fabricated much of his life story, painting himself as a successful business owner who worked at prestigious Wall Street firms and held a valuable real estate portfolio. In reality, Santos was struggling financially and even faced eviction. The revelations led to congressional and criminal inquiries into how he had funded his campaign. As his sentencing approached, Santos was reflective in social media posts, thanking his supporters and detractors alike. 'I learned that no matter left, right or, center we are all humans and for the most part Americans (LOL) and we have one super power that I cherish and that is compassion,' he wrote Thursday on the social platform X. 'To the trolls… well you guys are an impactful part of how people shape themselves, and y'all made me much stronger and made my skin thicker!' He also made one final plug for his Cameo account, where he records personalized video messages for $100. 'Think ahead and of any celebration or event coming up later this year. Book them today,' Santos wrote, ending the post with a series of heart emojis.
