So, that's a confirmed no, then?

how do you prove a negative? maybe she watched it with baby Jesus.

Baby Jesus watches sports and helps out whichever team prays harder. This is established fact. He doesn't have time for silly movies.

i stand corrected.

Okay, I'm giving her a pass on this... if I hadn't known about his wife's death, after him remarking that his wife had told him that he couldn't make that movie, I may have asked a similar question.

Except as interviewers on a national show, you'd think mayyybe its their job to be informed of their guests big news ahead of time.

Maybe this is what happens when you replace journalists with fluffy wives of has-been QBs whose main claim to fame was being on Survivor.

He was very gracious about it. It could've been awkward.

Here's my Stanley Tucci story. Warning! It's a snoozer.

I saw him and his family on the street some years back. They were the most impeccably dressed people I had ever seen. Not a wrinkle on the bunch. Not a button or shoe unpolished. Everything perfectly pressed. Everything perfectly tailored - impeccable. Just out of the box. Very lovely.

I don't know if this was their usual fashion mode but I got exhausted just looking at them.

brap: I saw him and his family on the street some years back. They were the most impeccably dressed people I had ever seen.

Call me nuts, but I think that's terribly sweet. How sad for him to have lost his wife. Maybe he and Liam Neeson ought to go bowling or something. :(

That said, Elizabeth Hasselbeck has consistently proven herself to be a top-shelf dumbass. This is just the latest evidence.

Me too. Besides, she publicly apologized on Twitter.
 
2009-12-21 10:30:27 AM
Oddly enough I had the same thing happen to me.

I was emailing him about a project he was putting together and the response was "gimmie a break dude, my wife just died".

A few years ago the exact same thing happened to me with a playwright. I calld his home and his wife said "sorry Dave, Jimmy cannot come to the phone right now. He just dropped dead 20 minutes ago in the lobby".

Please don't try to contact me or my immediate family.

\my stepmom thinks you're cute, however. Maybe you should call her.

You're killing people, aren't you?

/always thought Tucci was hot.
 
2009-12-21 11:21:20 AM
i only know her "deal" from links posted here, but hot damn is she entertaining.

i know her husband is (was?) a pro football QB. i wonder if he ever pulls her aside and tells her to tone it down as she's hurting his brand. or alternately, whether "the view" staffers strap her down to a gurney before every show, "clockwork orange" style, and shoot her full of red bull and hi octane coffee, and clip her eyebrows open and force her to watch a 10 minute highlight reel of democratic highlights or 9/11 footage or something.

this gal is priceless.

It's the View. It has nothing to do with journalism.

I guess she's not English.

Archie: Wanda, do you have any idea what it's like being English? Being so correct all the time, being so stifled by this dread of, of doing the wrong thing, of saying to someone "Are you married?" and hearing "My wife left me this morning," or saying, uh, "Do you have children?" and being told they all burned to death on Wednesday. You see, Wanda, we'll all terrified of embarrassment. That's why we're so... dead. Most of my friends are dead, you know, we have these piles of corpses to dinner

Let me guess you think that all the big shots actually read the books people are shilling on the shows as well? Most of those shows have 2-3 guests per show (therefore 10-15 per week) I think they can be excused if the don't know EVERY fact about every guest, especially since they are supposed to be filled in by some uber-nerd producer beforehand.

DOUBLE THIS.

I didn't know that Stanley Tucci's wife was dead. Nope, I sure didn't. It also wasn't my job to interview Stanley Tucci on national television. And don't talk to me about exhaustive research. I'm pretty sure that glancing over his Wiki entry wouldn't have broken Hasselbeck's tiny little brain.

Wait, hah. Now I get it. Stanley Tucci doesn't have a CONSERVAPEDIA entry. Poor Hasselbeck. She really did have no way of knowing.

What about when the actors pray really really hard to win an award? Thankfully Jesus saves a lot of time by ignoring half of Hollywood. Silly Jews.

Why would you need journalists to do the view? The premise is a bunch of bickering shrews. It's not like they are doing serious news.
 
2009-12-21 12:04:19 PM
I check out the video, and right before the question, he actual mentions his wife reading the script. I mean, usually that means she's alive (he never said his "late-wife"), and it wasn't really awkward, they just moved on. I would give her the pass on this.

At least she didn't ask if he was any relation to Flower Tucci.
 
2009-12-21 12:16:14 PM
His wife could have conceivably seen parts of the movie before she died, though.

The original release date of the movie was March of 2009, putting a test or screener version of the flick well within a time when she could have seen the movie, or portions of it, before she died in April. The release date was only pushed back because they wanted to take advantage of the 'awards season'.

Having said that, there's no way Hasselbeck would've known this because it would have meant her gaining knowledge on a subject before opening her mouth. That, as it has been proven time and again, goes against her very nature.

Yeah but you'd think you'd do some research on the guy you're interviewing. At least a quick IMDB or wikipedia look see.

/oh so your first movie was....

Psumek: Yeah but you'd think you'd do some research on the guy you're interviewing. At least a quick IMDB or wikipedia look see.

Pffft. The dude is on a fluff show to plug his movie, not a serious interview show where he's going to talk about his life. That's the only reason he is there. To plug the flick. All these broads need to know are a few bare bones things about the movie in order to let him start plugging.

This broad may be a dope (all of the gals on this show are), but in my opinion people who expect The View to live up to the standards of good journalism are dopes, too. Might as well expect filet mignon from McDonald's, too.

I said some. Looking up your body of work on wikipedia doesn't mean "good journalism." Fark I'd expect that if he went on some crappy Shock Jock radio show.

She is not a dope.

I guess I'll share my own weird death story. I sent a CPU to a guy in Florida and got it back a few days later (he paid for overnight). When I went to the PO to pick up a package, it was the CPU, with a note saying that the person was deceased. Not terribly creepy, though, until you realize that all of this was going on during the Anthrax scares.

Phil Herup: Naaaa. She gives Roman Polanski a pass though. He committed just "rape" and not "Rape Rape".... which is apparently a type of rape that is really bad.

It's Hollywood. Remember that half the women who work there got their jobs by bending over in a director's house with a face full of drugs before their 18th birthday while "modeling" and you'll understand why the insiders are confused about why Polanski's crimes are such a big deal.
