Singer/actress Brandy guest-hosted on The View earlier this week and she's scheduled to return to Star's seat on Friday. Of course, ABC isn't saying a word about whether she's up for the job, but guest hosting is how Elisabeth Hasselbeck got her seat at the table. I didn't see this week's episode with Brandy, but I read that she pretty much stayed quiet and, even so, Barbara Walters gushed about her at the end of the show.I've seen Brandy on America's Got Talent and she seems weak to me. She always defers to the other two judges before giving her own opinion about a performance, and her opinions are almost always sugar-coated. With that kind of meek attitude, she's not going to be able to get a word in edgewise with Rosie O'Donnell and Joy Behar beside her.
Who do you think should replace Star Jones? I vote for Tracy Morgan.

Maybe they should consider cancelling this annoying show once and for all. THAT would have my vote.

I think that after Viera left, the show went downhill. She kept the show together. But what's even more shocking to me is the evilness of Barbara Walters. What happened to her that she got soooo cold and nasty????

Personally I believe Rosie O'Donnell is a BIG mistake to begin with, Rosie will eat Brandy up and spit her out. Rosie wants total power. Queen Lateffa however, would be more appropriate, Queen is capable to handle Rosie on her own level. Queen is strong, has class and is capable of talking to an audience, interact with people on a panel, sing and does not denegrate people as Rosie can do. Also Queen has a lot more class than Rosie.
JUST MY OPINON

Queen Latifah...good one! She would be able to handle them very well.
Although I am partial to the Tracy Morgan idea, I always loved that sketch.

Queen Latifah has class? She's beens arrested for illegal posession of a firearm, assault, driving under the influence of drugs, etc. If that's class, what's OJ, the Duke of Brentwood?

Wanda Sykes would be great addition to the show. That is my vote.

Either Wanda or The Queen would work. The only problem is that once Rosie turns into the incredible hulk and Barbara gives up the evil eye, somebody's gonna get their feelings hurt. Though ladies don't take no s*@!

Having Rosie on the show is a big mistake. It wont be the View it will be her show. I think Joy and Elisabeth better look for new jobs.
Rosie would eat Brandy for lunch, but the Queen would take her down.
I hate the way the show is going and I feel bad for Elisabeth.
What was Barbara thinking?

The Queen, fer sure! You need somebody who's able to stand up to Rosie's vitriolic rhetoric. I say, dump Rosie before she comes on, bring on Latifa and find another Meridith.

Where does Gayle King live? I thought she lived in Chicago? She is very involved with her childrens lives and Oprahs magazine. Why would she leave? Queen Latifah sure could handle RO but I just don't think The View will survive another two years.
Did anyone see Kelly Monaco on TV on Tuesday? Elisabeth was all over her like she felt threatened by her.
