Monday, May 12 As Ryan Seacrest was giving out the phone numbers to vote, did JASON CASTRO mouth the words, "Don't vote," or did he say, "Vote, vote!"? Finally, we'll get to the bottom of this "American Idol" controversy! On Monday, Jason, the latest contestant to be eliminated, will join me to give his take on the Idol experience. Plus, he's going to sing the Lovin' Spoonful classic, "Daydream." Then, "House" is in the house! HUGH LAURIE, everybody’s favorite curmudgeonly MD will join me. We'll talk about how he accidentally learned that his father won an Olympic medal, his pill popping (I call him "The Swallower"), and we'll play a game of American versus English slang. Then, we'll get to the bottom of another controversy when the star of the show that's taking the country by storm, my new BFF, "The Hills’" HEIDI MONTAG drops in. We'll talk about her ongoing feud with Lauren Conrad -- I want to broker a truce! For goodness sake, it’s just a sex tape! It's time to get over it and move on! Can't we have peace in "The Hills"? To illustrate the point that anyone can get along, I'll also have some more wonderful photos of Unlikely Pairs! Come on Heidi and Lauren, if a kitten and a bear can snuggle up to each other, so can you guys! Plus, look out, The Marshmallow Game is back and it's more marshmallowy than ever! CLICK FOR PREVIEW: |
Tuesday, May 13 It’s a worldwide exclusive! On Tuesday, one of the biggest divas of our time, MARIAH CAREY will join me in her first interview since she married rapper Nick Cannon in the Bahamas! They’ve only been dating for six weeks, so this was definitely a whirlwind romance. I promise that we'll get all the fantastic romantic details! Mariah told People magazine, "We really do feel we are soulmates. I never felt a love like this was in the cards for me." Mariah also has a critically acclaimed new CD, "E=MC2." We'll talk about that too. Did I mention that we’re giving away a GMC Yukon Hybrid? Somebody out there is going to get really lucky and it could be you! Plus, we loved him on "Saturday Night Live" and he's fantastic in "Weeds." For the first time on my show, the very funny KEVIN NEALON will stop by to talk about his hilarious new book, "Yes, You’re Pregnant, But What About Me?" And I’m going to introduce you to an amazing singing group that is currently a YouTube sensation. They’re called "NATURALLY7," and they’ll make their TV debut on my show. They use no instruments when they perform, but instead create instrument sounds completely with their voices. They will sing "Wall of Sound" from their CD "Ready II Fly." And you’re going to love them, I promise! CLICK FOR PREVIEW: |
Wednesday, May 14 BARBARA WALTERS, the legendary newswoman and interviewer has written a fascinating biography, "Audition: A Memoir." Wednesday, Barbara will join me to talk about it. We've told her that nothing is off limits; I'll ask her about Star Jones, Rosie, her personal family struggles and tragedies and about the affair Barbara had in the ‘70s with Massachusetts Senator Edward Brooke, who was married at the time. Of all the giants Barbara has interviewed over the years, her own life has been just as incredible -- and I can't wait to ask her about it... and maybe I can get her to cry the way she gets all the people she interviews to cry. Plus, just two days after "The Bachelor" finale, we'll be joined by the happy couple! After eight grueling weeks of making out and hot-tubbing, MATT GRANT will finally have chosen either SHAYNE or CHELSEA. From the beginning, I thought it was Shayne, but now I think it might be Chelsea... or maybe Shayne. Whoever he chooses, they will both be here Wednesday to talk about their true TV love -- and hopefully we'll get some wedding details! Plus, he captured our hearts with his performance in "Into the Wild," and now he's the star of the summer blockbuster, "Speed Racer." EMILE HIRSCH will make a pit stop to talk about his state of the art new movie and maybe we’ll do a few laps around my studio! |
Thursday, May 15 On Thursday, the Kid Inventors are back with some of the best kid inventions yet! BECKY GOERLING, HOLLY THOMAS, JACK CAPLAN, SAMI STEVENS and the very cool beyond his years, ERIC PIERCE will show off their "Automatic Pet Scratchers," their "Kid Finders," their "Sock Pizzas" and their "Salt and Pepper Carriers." Plus, one of my favorite guests and one of the cutest, "ER's" JOHN STAMOS will join me. We’ll talk about his love life (both on screen and off). I think I’ll try to fix him up with someone. He has a hilarious story about how his mom thought he was an ugly baby. Plus we’ll play a game with a few lucky ladies in the audience. Then chef BOBBY FLAY will join me to talk about his YahooTV.com summer series, "In Search of Real Food," and of course, we’ll whip up some real food that will be real tasty! And it's a blast from the past when DJ TONY OKUNGBOWA fills in for Stryker! Tony says he's found the love of his life. Let's see if I can get him to tell us who it is! |
Friday, May 16 I love this man so much, and it's always an unforgettable show when he stops by. I can't stop singing the song he made with Madonna, "4 Minutes." What a great song, and the video is amazing too. Anyway, the one and only JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE will join me Friday! Yes that Justin Timberlake! We’ll find out what's new. He's got a new movie coming out, "The Love Guru." I hear that it’s fantastic! But what I really want to know is what was going on with Madonna bumping and grinding him at her show at the Roseland Ballroom! Justin will be here to help celebrate my 501/2 birthday. We’ll have some fantastic clips from the party my friends threw for me. Also on hand will be my favorite new singer, DUFFY. If you haven’t seen her, you have to watch -- she is wonderful! Duffy will perform "Mercy" from her upcoming CD debut, "Rockferry." |
