The view....Alicia Silverstone and Elizabeth?

Question

Did you all notice that after Elizabeth and Rosie's fight when Alicia Silverstone came on she went right past Elizabeth and hugged Joy and Rosie, what was that all about? Elizabeth put her hands on her hips like she was pissed.

Hey bubblez.......Did I say anything negative about Elizabeth? I was stating what her reaction was, I would have been pissed too. I am totally on Elizabeth's side, don't be so quick to judge.

Answer 1

That just goes to show how "high class" and "tolerant" Alicia is...

AS for "Page1344" - In case you fell into a coma during the show... Elisabeth did answer the question.... she clearly stated that she does not think Rosie thinks that American Troops are terrorists... (even though she really does)... you probably couldn't hear it over Rosie fat mouthed comments.... wah wah wah.....

Answer 2

Who cares about Elizabeth putting her hands on her hips as if she was pissed. Alicia was keeping it real if she felt like she didn't want to give her a hug for battering her Rosie than who gives.....I am a military wife. My husband deserves the up most respect from Rosie for her being able to sit her butt right there on the show and not be out there fighting in Iraq. My husband has been deployed 3 times to Iraq and while he was there Rosie you was just sitting there eating your little BON BONS and enjoying your relationship with your wife. On the other hand I had to keep my faith that my husband was going to come back home alive. Rosie if you are going to say something about the troops you better be able to back it up because you aren't the one over there and you Hollywood people think you know everything when really you do not know half the story.

Answer 3

It shouldn't matter that Alicia Silverstone is on Rosie's side. She was a guest and should have been polite. She should have shaken Elizabeth's hand even if she didn't want to hug her. That was just rude. I didn't see the show. Does anyone know if she ignored Elizabeth during the entire interview?

Answer 4

What an idiot. Elizabeth has more smarts and couth than Rosie could possibly ever have. And Alicia was just plain RUDE! WHo snubs a co-host of a nationally televised show. If I were Elizabeth I would have been very disgusted with the whole show. I am not one to agree with Elizabeth's political views 100% and not even close to Rosie's, but for Rosie to pick on Elizabeth all the time, I was so excited to see her fight back. GO ELIZABETH! Shut the woman up for once. Who cares about Alicia, I mean seriously, what shows has she been on since Clueless? The snub was uncalled for!

Answer 5

Years ago as a puppy Alicia Silverstone was a guest on The Rosie O'Donnell Show. She in my opinion went for the familiar cast member after the cat fight. EH was mad at Rosie big time. They have been scrapping all week and it's just Wednesday.
If u have notice the show has been boycotted by numerous celebrities. They used to have high profile and entire cast shows of new released films with big stars. No more. If they do many prefer tape. Some are in support of Rosie and come for her to express their cause. The ABC TV casts are brought over to fill in and promote season finales. Did u hear Rosie, "another cast member from Lost" pout.
Ms. O'Donnell had fantastic guests on her show b4. But she never crossed the line as far into controversy there as she has on someone else's show. I am happy people are discussing politics. Depressed at the personal attacks and lack of a professional debate. Bette Davis "Fasten your seat belts folks" it could be a bummpy couple of weeks.

Answer 6

My husband is a soldier and over in Iraq. No one probably would have said much if she had said something about Bush, but you do not attack our troops. My husband chose to be a soldier, but they don't get to pick their wars. They do what they are told. My husband is not a terrorist. Rosie is the coward b/c she couldn't just say what she meant. If that's not what she meant then she needs to learn how to word her statements better. As far as Alicia- who cares? Who made celebrities the know it all of politics? It's easy for them to sit in their big mansions and pass judgement on everyone else. If I was Elizabeth I could care less. I don't always agree with her, but on this I do. It's okay to have different opinions, but the Iraqi's are killing Iraqi's and our soldiers. If you aren't personally involved in the military and going by the media maybe you don't know everything you think you do.

Answer 7

I don't care one way or the other about either of them, but it was rude. AS could have offered a half-hearted greeting, at least.
Sometimes I agree with Elizabeth, sometimes with Rosie, often times wish they would both just shut up.
OT, does anyone know where Elizabeth came from before The View?

Answer 8

I'm going to choose not to take a side. If you look at the video, you see Elizabeth grab onto Alicia's arms and say, "Sorry." I'm pretty sure Alicia quickly replies, "That's OK", and then goes on to hug everybody else. Obviously something happened behind the scenes that we know nothing about. To accuse Alicia of being a ***** is, I feel, sort of harsh.

Answer 9

I used to like Alicia Silverstone but she was WAY out of line and rude to Elizabeth. I am sure she doesn't care about 1 fan but she has lost me anyway. How old is she......5?

Answer 10

Alicia snubbed Elisabeth after Elisabeth said "I'm sorry" (apologizing for the loud argument before Alicia came on). Alicia said, "it's ok", walked right by her without hugging her or shaking her hand and headed to hug Rosie. That was NOT professional. EH did NOT deserve that.

Answer 11

I agree with Kat and Nathan.There is no excuse for Alicia Silverstone's rudeness.She made the matter personal.Not good.As for Rosie, she has been a pain since she met Madonna.Each can discuss the topic and disagree if they want.Its called The View after all.Not "you must agree or I will become a loud obnoxious pouting blowhard' as Rosie does.
