Elisabeth Hassles Bush into Invite
George W. Bush's number one fan Elisabeth Hasselbeck whined yesterday morning about not getting invited to the White House Xmas party. Well, it worked -- she got invited.
The Hass got a call from Bush HQ, and the President's office actually apologized to her, according to a "View" rep. Bush's people "explained that she and her husband were indeed invited to the White House for Christmas and were sorry that it did not arrive."
Nothing like being on the JV list for a party.
Abdul Attacks Idol: They Knew About Stalker
Paula Abdul is pissed off -- and lashing out at "American Idol," claiming she begged "Idol" producers to keep suicidal fan Paula Goodspeed off the show -- but even after the desperate warning, the dangerously obsessed fan made the show anyway.
Just moments ago on "The View," Babwa went into detail about an interview she did with Paula on her Sirius radio show last night, where Abdul also claimed she's the victim of a three-way conspiracy to ruin her career -- and the perps are bigwigs at Fox, "Idol" and Simon Cowell himself.
"Idol" already added a fourth judge to the new season -- which, in Barbara's opinion, will be Paula's last.

Children, children.
Rosie O'Donnell just wouldn't let up on Barbara Walters and "The View" yesterday afternoon and late last night, mocking her right into the camera on Conan O'Brien's show. Babs had excoriated Rosie yesterday for "dumping" on "The View" for purposes of pimping out her new show.
Then last night, Rosie went ahead and slammed Barbara ... without mentioning her name, of course.
Your serve, Ms. Walters.
My Big Fat Greek Divorce
First Barbara Walters, now her husband -- Debbie Matenopoulos has been quit on again.
Jay Faires, prez of music at Lionsgate, has filed for divorce from the former "View" host and soon-to-be former wife.
In papers filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Faires cites "irreconcilable differences." They were married in July 2003. According to the docs, they have been separated since March 22, 2008. Faires filed the divorce docs Wednesday.
We don't know if she gets to keep the rock, which has an estimated value of a small country.
Elisabeth to Joy Don't Hassel the Beck
The supposed catfighting at "The View" continues.
The Chicago Sun-Times reports Elisabeth is none too pleased Joy did a "vicious impression" of her at a comedy gig. She wore a "ratty green coat" to mock the outfit Hasselbeck donned at a Sarah Palin rally, and took a dig at EH for ridiculing the press about the whole Palin-wardrobe thing. "Elisabeth spends that much in a month," joked Joy.
That's an exaggeration, admits an "associate of Hasselbeck," but it "apparently enraged" her nonetheless.

The yentas of "The View" went all googly-eyed for Barack Obama on today's show, but it was Barbara Walters who really went there with Barack.
When asked about being Brad Pitt's ninth cousin, Obama said that Brad was the one who got the looks in the family -- Babwa disagreed, strongly. And then they had to go and talk about stuff like foreign policy and race relations and O-blah-blah-blah-ma ...
