*Country superstar Tim McGraw has joined the national conversation surrounding Kanye West and his actions at the MTV Video Music Awards.

The singer, who was the subject of Swift’s first hit single called “Tim McGraw,” said the rapper’s disruption of her acceptance speech Sunday upset his daughters Gracie, 12, Maggie, 11, and Audrey, 7.

“He shows himself to be an idiot every time he does stuff like that,” the artist told CMT Insider. “[My girls] were upset. But what he did do is provide a great example of how not to be, and my girls learned a big lesson.”

But, he added, “When they weren’t looking I said, ‘He needs an a– whoopin!’”

*This is a classic! A blast from the not so distant past, Ed Lover, is here to put on blast, as only HE can, all those who stole the limelight from others these past couple weeks.

He needs his own show again because if this is what he can do with just a few minutes, imagine what his half hour program would look like.

He even has celebrity guest appearances. Somebody get MTV on the phone Â… ED LOVER’S BAAAACK!!

Mary Travers, who as one-third of the hugely popular 1960s folk trio Peter, Paul and Mary helped popularize such tunes as “Puff ” and “If I Had a Hammer,” died in a Connecticut hospital Wednesday after battling leukemia for several years.

His hallmark character, on a game-changing TV show, was a meek, mild-mannered poet who came out holding a large flower, beginning each poem with “A poem, by Henry Gibson.” Henry Gibson, one of the original cast members of “Rowan and Martin’s Laugh-In,” has died.

Wendy Williams has a hot new show she left radio for and sheÂ’s up to all her shenanigans there as well.

When she saw Oprah interviewing Whitney Houston, she mustÂ’ve had a flashback to her time on the radio with Whitney. That little incident left a screaming match between them that no one will forget.

Now Wendy Williams is trying to say that listening to Whitney brings back old times of her cocaine use. She said she was once addicted to cocaine and she could relate with Whitney. EXCEPT! she feels that Whitney is blaming all her problems on Bobby and her drug problem was not BobbyÂ’s fault.

*ABC News has explained how it managed to get hold of President Obama’s candid comment about Kanye West while he was doing an interview with another network, and TMZ.com got hold of - and posted - full audio of the exchange. [Scroll down to listen.]

The network said some of its employees overheard a conversation between the president and CNBC’s John Harwood and didn’t realize it was considered off the record, according to the Associated Press.

Harwood had sat down with the president to tape an interview following his appearance on Wall Street on Monday. Although they are competitors, CNBC and ABC share a fiber optic line to save money, and this enabled some ABC employees to listen in on the interview as it was being taped for later use.

Before the interview started, Harwood asked the president if he was miffed over the behavior of Kanye West, who was widely criticized for interrupting Taylor Swift as she accepted an award at Sunday’s MTV Video Music Awards to say that Beyonce deserved it.

Drew Barrymore chose a real balancing act for her directing debut. She does it on wheels, directing and acting alongside “Juno” co-star Ellen Page in “Whip It,” a rowdy tale of roller-derby women.

The exclamation point in the title is your first clue that Steven Soderbergh’s intentions are more than a little askew with “The Informant!” Then you notice Matt Damon’s helmet of hair, his pouf of a mustache, his corny sportswear and the paunch where the “Bourne” trilogy star’s taut abs used to be.

Actor Keanu Reeves had no problem getting inside Buffalo-area jails. The feds haven’t been so lucky.

Jay Leno inaugurated his new 10 PM show on Monday night, and started things off with a blockbuster guest, Kanye West. Normally, a three minute stint wouldn’t be a big deal, but after Kanye’s flame-out with Taylor Swift on the MTV Video Music Awards (VMAs), managing getting him to apologize on the air is a big coup.

*The Kanye West saga seems to be NEVER ENDING. Rumor has it that Kanye’s outburst caused a HUGE fight between Jay-Z and Beyonce.

According to industry insiders, Jay was there when Kanye ran up on stage and took the mic from Taylor. MTV execs were FURIOUS at Kanye for what he did and demanded that he go out on stage and apologize to Taylor but Kanye refused and opted to leave the venue.

Jay was pissed at how the MTV execs played Kanye but what really pissed him off was when Beyonce was gracious enough to allow Taylor to have her “moment” to shine. Allegedly, Jay saw that as a “dis” to the Roc family.

To “punish” Bey for her “disloyalty” Jay partied it up all night with Rihanna. Personally, I think all of this is a bunch of BS. I cannot see Jay-Z being pissed at his wife for acting like an adult.

Speaking of drama, word on the street is that Kerry Washington and Kim Kardashian have been going at it over Reggie Bush.

Sure, the West Wing gets the glory. But the East Room gets the action. Indispensable, yet overshadowed by more famous rooms like the Oval Office, the roomy space at the end of the White House’s first floor is more than a hub of activity.
