Bill O'Reilly Addresses "Fiery Debate" on The View

Yesterday morning, Bill O'Reilly was a guest on The View and got into such a heated exchange with Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg that those panelists walked off the set. Watch the confrontation unfold NOW.

Last night, meanwhile, the Fox News host addressed this "fiery debate" on his Talking Points segment.

Admitting that "I am often offensive, everyone knows that," O'Reilly defended his belief that a mosque should not be built near the site of 9/11 by saying:

“No one I know wants to insult Muslims, but many are tired of the political correctness surrounding the 9/11 attack. Did we say, in World War II, ‘We were attacked by “Japanese extremists”? [...] No: we said we were attacked by ‘Japanese.’”

For an intelligent man, that example makes no sense, of course. The leaders of a country choosing to take their nation to war is nothing like an infinitesimal percentage of the world's one billion Muslims planning a terrorist act.

We've also never heard O'Reilly lump all Christians together when an abortion clinic is bombed.

Jesse James and Kat Von D: Going Strong!

Jesse James recently relocated to Texas so his kids could be near their former stepmom, Sandra Bullock, even though he cheated on her and she divorced him.

That plan had the added benefit of putting distance between his family and his other ex-wife, Janine Lindemulder, whose parole bars her from leaving California.

It all made sense at the time for the troubled biker, but he could be headed back to the Golden State before long. The reason for that is simple: Kat Von D.

MANY TATS, ONE LOVE: It's getting serious for Jesse and Kat!

Janine herself muses: “He did everything he could to try and win Sandra back but it didn’t wash and now that he has Kat in his life, why would he stay in Texas?"

“All of his friends are in California and he was like a fish out of water in Austin which is really Sandra’s town. The sad part is that he made the kids move there."

“He’s a narcissist and if it means being with Kat Von D and the publicity that will bring then I’m sure he will go for it," Janine adds. “I guess I should be happy."

Good attitude, Janine. Way to stay positive.

Adam Lambert Dedicates Malaysian Concert to "Love"

Adam Lambert did not let protests by the Pan Malaysian Islamic Party ruin his concert in Kuala Lumpur last night.

The second-largest political party in that mostly-Muslim nation had decreed the singer's "gay performances" earlier in the week, while members stood outside the stadium last night and waved banners with messages such as "Muslim students protest gay icon in our country" and "Not our culture."

These people are as unoriginal as they are intolerant, huh?

But this demonstration did not disrupt the gig, as Lambert remained true to his pledge to tone down his act in accordance with Malaysian government guidelines and told the crowd:

"Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's show is about love."

He proceeded to play hits such as "Whataya Want From Me," "If I Had You" and "For Your Entertainment." Much to the delight of those in attendance.

Nurhazwani Hifni, a 25-year-old accountant at the concert, said she was happy that Lambert respected Malaysia's regulations and respected the differences in culture, but, in the end, "all the fans are here for the music."

With Adam, that never disappoints.

Taylor Swift to Appear on Glee?

Glee hit a home run with its Madonna episode, but whiffed with its Britney Spears tribute.

Might the show try to break this tie with yet another installment dedicated to a pop singer?

As she makes the media rounds in anticipation of her new album's October 25 release date, Taylor Swift was asked about the Fox hit by Zap2It. Making it unclear whether she would guest star or her songs would be used on the series, Swift replied:

"There have been conversations and when those happen with all these new opportunities, it usually comes down to scheduling. I'm a huge fan of the show, and I think it showcases music in a great way, so I would be really excited if anything were to happen there."

What do you think of Swift making an appearance on Glee?

While this possibility, unlike that of an episode dedicated to NSYNC, doesn't make us recoil, the show might be best served to just focus on its actual cast for awhile. It features a tremendous set of young actors and actresses. There's no need to rely on gimmicks so often.

Michael Lohan: I'll Become a Drunk to See Lindsay!

That douchenozzle Michael Lohan needs to get a clue.

Unable to pry himself away from cameras long enough to give his massive ego a rest and realize he's a terrible father his kid despises, he instead resorts to one ridiculous gimmick after another to get the attention of the media Lindsay Lohan.

His latest stunt? MiLo claims he's going to intentionally fall off the wagon and check himself into the Betty Ford clinic - that way he can be near his little girl!

THE DOUCHE STORE CALLED: That they did, and the situation is serious. Guess what, Mike? They're runnin' low on YOU! [Photo: PacificCoastNewsOnline.com]

Michael Lohan, who Lindsay admits is the root of her problems, says he's willing to stage his own arrest if that's what it takes to get tabloids' Lindsay's attention.

He says he's going to show up at Betty Ford and demand admission. If that attempt to see Lindsay fails, he's going to get drunk, then go back and make a scene.

Okay, he's an awful person and all, but we kind of hope that happens. This is a celeb gossip website, after all. That'd be pretty good as far as THG material goes.

Jersey Shore Recap: The Worst Wingman Ever

Last night's Jersey Shore was titled "Deja Vu All Over Again." Fitting, as the plight of Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino continued for a second straight week.

After the self-proclaimed King of Pimps ran afoul of Snooki last week, he struck out with more girls, got the gang booted from da club and failed as a wingman.

We felt bad ... for Pauly D. Below, THG breaks down the top Jersey Shore quotes and scenes from last night's episode of the show in its patented +/- recap ...

Not DTF? Then GTF out!

Snooki becomes homesick after saying goodbye to her friend Ryder and contemplates leaving. Minus 7, because we know filming ends in a matter of days.

The Situation kicks a girl out of his bed after she tells him she doesn't want to hook up, leading to one of our favorite exchanges this season. Sitch: "Don't come over to somebody's house at f*%king 5 a.m. and expect to play checkers." Non-DTF Girl: "I never said anything about checkers, OLD MAN!" LOL. Guy is like 28. Plus 28.

Sayeth Snooki, of JWoww's clubbing attire: "She looks so good. She looks like the ultimate stripper." One that can and will beat your ass on cue. Plus 5.

Vinny on Ramona: "I'm a little pot-committed and caught some feelings for her after all we've been through." Minus 9, because pot-committed makes no sense, even if closed captioning says it, and "what they've been through" is him being stood up once.

Pot-committed or not, we're kinda loving Vinny and Ramona.

This is more of a general observation, but does anybody else think that some of the authenticity is fading now that the cast members are celebrities? When they were a bunch of white trash idiots in New Jersey, it just seemed more real. Minus 10.

Back to the show ... Pauly D laments his terrible wingman situation: "What I need is somebody that knows how to take one for the team or entertain a grenade or even decipher the bomb if one comes." Decipher? Eh, the point got across. Plus 8.

Wow! Sammi acts totally irrationally over a mundane comment from Ronnie. What a shock! Asked by his girl if she looks "exotic," Ronnie says yeah, Sammi looks Asian. Ronnie's ex-girlfriend is Asian. HOW DARE YOU RON!? Minus 15.

After a mishap in the kitchen, firefighters visit the Miami house to make sure nothing is on fire. Yet the things that burn, they can't check. Plus 6. Speaking of ...

We need a shot of penicillin after merely watching this.

JWoww creates a chart to see how the roommates have indirectly hooked up with each other. The real question is who hasn't smushed at this point. Minus 7.

The Situation and Vinny accidentally get the car towed. Not his night. Plus 4.

After Pauly D lures two girls from Canadia to the crib, The Situation flakes again after his is engaged. Pauly? Not happy: "I was nice enough to bring two. At least entertain the chick or something so I can get it in." Seriously dude. Nut up. Minus 10.

TOTAL: -7. SEASON TOTAL: +133.

Jasmine Waltz on Attention: Bring It!

We learned a couple new facts about Jasmine Waltz this week: she slept with David Arquette and she has an arrest record.

Having this information go public might bother most people, but most people haven't bedded every other D-lister in Hollywood.

Look for a Jasmine Waltz sex tape to hit the market any week now. [Photo: Pacific Coast News]

"She's clearly trying to further her 'career' by letting these types of stories drag out," a source tells E! News. "By smiling and giving a little to the photogs following her around now, she knows exactly what she's doing."

Case in point? The photo above.

Waltz just happened to stop by Premiere night club in Los Angeles this week where - wouldn't you know it?!? - a slew of paparazzi were parked outside. She also visited ex-fling Dough Reinhardt at home on Wednesday, letting cameras snap pictures of the reunion.

Simply put, "Jasmine is loving the attention," says an insider. Somewhere, Kim Kardashian is nodding her head in approval.
