'What Not to Wear' Star Blasts Fellow TLCer Palin

By Rob Shuter Posted Dec 30th 2010 03:00PM

'What Not To Wear' fashion guru Clinton Kelly has come out blazing against fellow TLC star Sarah Palin, saying he wasn't thrilled when he heard that the ex-governor would be doing what he calls an "eight-hour info-commercial on my network." Sources tell me Clinton isn't the only star at TLC who wants nothing to do with the right-leaning politician.

"Kate Gosselin isn't very fond of her either, especially after spending several days taping an episode" of her show, 'Sarah Palin's Alaska,' sources tell me.

Sitting down with Joy Behar and myself a few days ago on her hit new HLN show, 'The Joy Behar Show,' Clinton didn't hold back when it came Sarah.

"She basically stands for everything I don't stand for or I'm against," Clinton said. "So, it's a little bit rough. What bothers me the most about her is her hypocrisy, and you know, I'm trying to be funny, but I can't think of a joke."

After Joy made it clear that she wanted her guests to say how they feel rather than crack jokes, an emotional Clinton continued, "Look at nature. Look at this beautiful Alaska. Look at how beautiful everything is. Let's go kill something because we need some meat in the refrigerator."

Oh well. Clinton better get used to sharing TLC with Sarah -- sources told me last week the network is trying to get her to sign on for a second season.

Just what I was going to say. If you eat meat, somebody had to kill it. If you wear leather, somebody had to skin it. What difference does it make if the Palins can afford to buy meat. They like to eat wild game....so somebody has to kill it why not them. Would it be less offensive if she just bought it at the local butcher shop?

CLINTON IS A LEFT WING DEMORAT CRY BABY LIB. THESE ARE THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE DESTROYED THE USA NOT SARA PALIN WHO JUST HAPPENS TO BE BETTER LOOKING AND A BETTER BODY THAN CLINTON

By Mary

I am shocked, shocked to hear that a TLC personality dislikes Sarah Palin...it's like they all have a liberal "to do" checklist to get their Hollywood SAG card. 1. Badmouth a conservative. 2. Admit self effacingly and reluctantly how "brave" you are for being liberal 3. Mock something that the rest of America admires. 4. Give EVERYONE your stinking political opinion when nobody asked for it.

I'll betcha Sarah Palin could whoop Clinton's prissy butt.

By Shirley Applebee

Clint Kelly has a degree in journalism. How does that make him an expert on style? Joy Behar always bashes Sarah Palin. Kate's children were having fun on the camping trip with the Palins until Kate spoiled it. So, the three winners do not like Sarah Palin. What else is new?

By RJ

I agree with Clinton Kelly - she's nothing but an animal killer who is not only stupid, she makes me sick. So glad most of her tea party candidates didn't win. At least most in the USA have her number. Get lost Palin - no one of merit likes you anyway.

By SH

You are probably one of those liberals that think killing animals is terrible but killing babies is acceptable. I'll just bet you and Clinton Kelly are both pro choice and think abortion is ok.

Gosh you seem like a nice person BUT not that informed. Most of Mrs Palins picks won their election.

I'm sick and tired of evryone it seems piling on Sarah Palin. Why? Because she's as closer normal as one could be these days? Some people should consider themselves very fortunate she has Todd for a husband. He's the most disciplined man I can think of. If people said the things they say about Sarah Palin about my wife I go berserk. Don't know how he does it. Must be a good man.

I like Clinton, I like his show, I really like his cohost babe, style maven diva Stacy London! I don't give a damn about his politics or his opinions on other peoples politics. Libs are libs, we'll all have to just agree to disagree.

Hmmm so a "fashion guru" and the divorced mom of 8 kids is someone we should take their advice on Palin? Sure you can disagree with someone's politics, but the article, Joy Behar and the others makes it seem like THEY were "normal" "ordinary" Americans. Facts are Joy is a severe left winger, apparantly the fashion guru has problems with hunting and whether the divorced mom has any sense is something that is yet to be discovered. Please dont try to paint left wingers with a need to be recognized as part of their way to make money as normal or ordinary.

I've watched Clinton and Stacey transform people and change their lives, but I seriously doubt that any individual's politics is going to disqualify them from getting Clinton's best advise on his show.

"animal killer"..hmmmm it seems you have a phobia. Have you considered going to a psychiatrist about it? I mean WORLDWIDE there are hunters. You are denigrating an activity that has been part of history worldwide. You really should go back to high school and learn some history before opening your mouth so everyone can see the feet in there.

That's quite a statement, Ge0ffrey. Please state your sources.

Well many of us CAN criticize her b/c we DON'T eat, wear or use ANY animal products. We are against animal testing and the use of animals for our entertainment. It's called being vegan; look it up, sweetheart. No hypocrites here.

GEE what would aol do if they couldn't report something of no importance on sarah palin and her family...for as much as you all don't care for her you sure report alot on her .....find another story this is getting boring

By JOHN

Joy Behar ia a frustrated woman who feels threatened by Sarah Palin! If Joy would only take time to satisfy her man (If she has one) as she does with in taking pop shots at Palin....she would be much less frustrated and perhaps nice to be around.

Palin like her or not has more guts and backbone than 90% of the gutless liars and thieves that represent us in the Congress and Senate! America....Palin may not be the answer but she is far better than most who claim they Want the best for you and I and run on the campaign promise...which is usually broken in the first 90 days of serving in office.

By Blonde Ambition

They're both divas out of touch with reality. I will continue to not watch their shows.

By jmaltus

Clinton and Gosselin? My network. A waste of space and time. Why report their "thoughts".
