Julie Chen - Is Her Career Over?

#justiceforatwt

She has no discernible talent, she's not pretty, witty, or young. She has no charm and would not be able to boy a television let alone be on one if it weren't for whom her snatch snatched. She is over, across the board. And she knew all about sleazy Moonves. She stole him from his wife Nancy.

The only thing she could do is split from Moonves and it could create sympathy for her. That may safe her career.

multiple people who worked with Chen at CBS News’ morning program and later at Big Brother and The Talk recounted instances in which Chen was allegedly cold and dismissive to staffers in the control room (“I don’t want her in my ear,” Chen allegedly complained about one CBS Early Show staffer whose job was to give her cues), boasted about her ability to have people who displeased her fired, and exercised her clout behind the scenes to work her will against management decisions she disagreed with.

“You bet you’re taking full responsibility—I’ve made all the right phone calls,” Chen allegedly told a CBS News producer who had irked her with an off-camera glitch and was fired shortly thereafter, according to a source familiar with the conversation.

Such was the perception of Chen’s power within CBS, according to a network source, that the CBS news division is reluctant, and possibly terrified, to break into The Talk’s live broadcasts with special reports. Indeed, from January 2016 through July 2018, ABC broadcast 32 special reports during the 2 p.m.-to-3 p.m. Eastern time period when The Talk is aired; NBC had 19.

CBS had only six—opting not to follow the lead of the other two networks when President Donald Trump withdrew from the Paris climate accord, when a Florida pedestrian bridge collapsed and killed six people, and when Trump signed an executive order reversing his widely condemned family separation policy at the U.S-Mexico border.

CBS’ explanation—that it prefers to place important breaking news on its live streaming video service CBSN instead of the broadcast network—isn’t terribly convincing.

“What about abuse of power?” veteran network news executive Shelley Ross posted on her Facebook feed as advance word of The New Yorker’s Moonves blockbuster spread throughout the media. “Leaving [David] Letterman on after his own admissions of egregious behavior. And what about Julie Chen’s abuses of power…”

Former Good Morning America executive producer Ross—who was personally vetted by Moonves and spent an unhappy six months in close proximity to Chen as senior executive producer of the CBS Early Show before being dismissed in March 2008—declined to comment for this article.

Another doomed executive producer was broadcast veteran Susan Winston, who lasted all of two weeks on The Talk, after she was hired ostensibly to fix the chaotic daytime gabfest toward the end of its tempestuous first season in April 2011.

According to CBS and outside sources, two of the Season 1 panelists, actresses Leah Remini and Holly Robinson Peete, didn’t get their contracts renewed after they unwisely pitched a senior CBS entertainment executive that they should be given more authority on the show’s direction—and Chen should be fired. Both Remini and Peete were unavailable for comment.

“You don’t know what you’re getting into,” Moonves allegedly joked to Winston as she took on the challenge. (Winston declined to comment to The Daily Beast, but this account is sourced to a show insider who, like most of the people interviewed for this article, asked for anonymity so as not to risk antagonizing the entertainment industry’s most powerful executive.)

One notable incident allegedly took place during a production meeting of more than two dozen people and panelists at The Talk, where Chen presided, according to the source, who is a self-described witness.

“I was standing in the back and Julie was running the meeting; she ran all the meetings,” this person said. “She was going over what would happen in the show, saying, ‘I’ll say this, and then you’ll say that, and then this will happen,’ and so on. Suddenly she got up and was standing on her chair and she shouted, ‘You make me vomit! You make me vomit!’ And I’m thinking, what the heck is this? I’m not sure what she was angry about. I have no clue. I have watched people go into psychotic rages. I would say that she had what I would call a psychotic break.”

Soon after that, this person continued, Moonves and Winston’s agent, Babette Perry, were summoned to The Talk’s offices, where they agreed that Winston’s gig was abruptly at an end.

However, told of Chen’s denial, the source insisted the account was accurate, and a second The Talk insider who worked on the show at the time but wasn’t a witness independently told The Daily Beast that they learned of Chen’s alleged blowup shortly after it occurred and that news of the incident was widely circulated and discussed among the show’s staff.

One can only hope she goes away.

KARMA'S A BITCH-

She had a good run.

Thoughts and prayers.

I'm watching big brother right now and she hasn't appeared. She's the host, for anybody who doesn't know.

Julie Chen is the host of two highly rated programs at CBS and while I believe she got those jobs because of who her husband is, networks don't like to mess with a proven formula. On top of that forcing out a woman for the sins of her husband would just put more egg on the face of CBS. While I am not one of them Julie Chen does have her fans. If CBS forces her out they surely will have a huge lawsuit on their hands as the new season of The Talk starts Monday, so contracts are all signed and finalized.

Replacing her on Big Brother with less than 20 days left until the end would just be crazy. Julie will want to finish BB and CBS forcing her out for actions by her husband just isn't going to happen. I have no take on whether she will be back next year or for this winters celebrity BB, time will tell.

I have seen people claiming that Julie will want to leave to "save face", but I see her quitting in the middle of either the season of BB or The Talk as losing face, not saving it. I predict Julie finishes BB, and at least a good part of the season of the Talk.

[quote] I'm watching big brother right now and she hasn't appeared. She's the host, for anybody who doesn't know.

For anyone who doesn't know, Julie Chen never appears in either the Sunday or Wednesday editions of Big Brother, she only appears on the opening night, eviction Thursdays and finale night.

[quote]KARMA'S A BITCH-

You got that right!

who?

I remember they used to cut the live camera feeds and disciplined the houseguests who talked about the Chen/Moonves affair. This was before it was widely known. Probably Season 3 or 4.

She is BigBrother. She will always have a job.

one can hope.....is she isn't complicit the sky ain't blue.....this sphincter was engaged to her and wasn't even divorced from his wife!! i say she goes...... she

is horrible at what she does anyway.....

She only has a job on TV coz she put out. She is one ugly motherfucker. I haven't seen much of her shows, not in years anyways but I recall that they NEVER do a tight shot of her face coz she is ugly as fuck!

I'm white. White. WHITE!

I have to admit I’m a big BB/Julie fan. The show will not be the same without her. I hope she sticks around and is not held accountable for her husband’s actions.

[quote]I remember they used to cut the live camera feeds and disciplined the houseguests who talked about the Chen/Moonves affair. This was before it was widely known. Probably Season 3 or 4.

On BB11, Chima Simone claimed on feeds that Braden Bacha, that season's first boot, called Julie a "hoe" before he got evicted.

Neil Garcia, who walked off BB9 after only a few days, has never disclosed why he left, but one of the rumors that persists is that he was making racist jokes about Julie (including making slanty eyes with his fingers), word got back to Julie and Les, and he was given the option of leaving quietly or getting expelled and dragged through the mud.

I think they will keep her till next season in both shows. But I see here resigning/fired from the Talk after that. But I think Grondner would want to keep her in BB forever.

She adds nothing on the Talk, but I do think she's good on Big Brother. I'd keep her around just for that.

She’s TERRIBLE on BB. The show desperately needs help in the host department. She’d be forgotten within a few weeks. A new host with an actual personality that wasn’t a block of wood would make the show infinitely better.

Arisa Cox, the host of [italic]Big Brother Canada,[/italic] would be awesome. She's stylish and charismatic, and she absolutely loves the game.

I cannot believe trash like "Big Brother" (an ignorant misuse of Orwell's "1984," btw. Doesn't the Orwell Estate have any say in this?) is still on the air. I wish people who watch this garbage would read a book instead. So depressing.

I'm wondering if the person who created the now legendary thread years ago "I hate my friend Julie" was talking about Ms. Chen.

Imagine the frau outrage if a woman was punished for the sins of her husband. Facebook would go up in flames. Julie will go when Julie gets paid enough to leave on her own.

Her career over? HA! No one can keep her left foot at a slimming 45 degree angle from her right quite like our Julie....

The contestants on Big Brother all think she’s lovely.

I love Wil Heuser's Julie.

[quote]Doesn't the Orwell Estate have any say in this?

There’s a disclaimer in the credits (no affiliation with Orwell Estate) so it seems they had something to say.

I support her!

I support her!

Looks like CBS will put the full $120mm in a trust pending the investigation outcome. The “donation” will come from CBS’s own pocket. He’ll put up a hell of a legal fight if they try to reduce the amount - a lot of this stuff is still “he said, she said” legally, right? Her husband definitely knew how to bully and negotiate. This bitch is set for life and has a great chance of a massive settlement should they divorce. She gives zero fucks people, and got what she wanted. She’s like a louder, fatter, more talented version of Wendi Deng. Like Wendi, the worst that will happen to her is hanging out with celebs and dating much younger man candy.

R4 That's it? If those are the worst stories they got on her, then she's safe on that front. Of course, it still means she has to suck up to whoever takes over CBS to keep her job.

Thanks, r32.

the problem with the Talk is that it is you say this, I'll say that, you say this, then I'll say that....it's not like the View where it's a free for all and you don't know what's going to happen.

The Talk plays it safe and when you play it safe, you have a safe show.

CBS and Endemol Shine, which owns all Big Brother editions worldwide, were sued by the Orwell estate in 2000 (during the first US season), but they reached a permissions agreement.

I don't see how she avoids being collateral damage. With Moonves out and the inevitable internal power shift, I can't imagine Shari Redstone keeping the wife of her hated enemy, who has now become CBS' version of Harvey Weinstein, on the company payroll. It may not happen immediately, but look for her to not continue with Big Brother after the current season, and at some point she will "decide" to depart from The Talk to pursue other interests.

Most viewers don’t associate her with Moonves. They’ve never heard of him.

R41 doesn't matter - the TV industry associates her with Moonves and they have all the clout now.

I stopped watching The Talk on a regular basis two years ago. I will sometimes tune in if there is someone I like that is going to be a guest but even then the silly, vapid, questions for the audience and the seriousness with which she asks them should have it's own CBS Special. "Have YOU ever picked your nose and ate what you mined only to discover that your best friend secretly taped it and posted it on You-Tube and now everyone knows your name?"

She'll stay till the end of Big Brother and that's it. Really I don't know what else she can do on camera . Maybe behind the scenes somewhere.

She not particularly good at her jobs...it was clear that she had the right connections because she is very moderately talented.

Yes...until she finds another power player in the TV industry to sleep with and give her plum jobs.

I hope so. I hate to talk bad about people and I don’t know her but she just popped up one day and seemed like a bitch. Then I found out who she is married to and then it made sense. Her husband’s time is up and hers should be too.

R19 that's some before and after!

I just found this fawning piece about her on "Buzzfeed." I had to stop reading before I threw up.

[quote]Imagine the frau outrage i

We call that "frautrage."

Women won’t support Julie when they found out she broke up a 30 year marriage.

r47 nailed it. I am going to close this thread now.

She won't want to stay at CBS after this. I'm sure she'll finish up the current year of BB and move along.

I admit I loved Kristen Wiig's Chen impersonation on this SNL sketch.

They are saying they are going to talk about Les on the Talk.

Julie ISN'T there for the premiere episode of The Talk

Sharon O. breaks the news. Julie taking personal time to be with her family at this moment.

Wonder if she will be on Big Brother Thursday?

If she is I’m sure all the houseguests will tell her how amaze balls she is looking that night.

No, her career is not over! How can it? She made it all on her own!

From the Big Brother Thread

[quote] Julie Chen will not be on @TheTalkCBS, issuing a statement: “I am taking a few days off from The Talk to be with my family. I will be back soon and will see you Thursday night on Big Brother.”

She got a new face for him and everything ....

Taking a few days to figure out how to spend the forthcoming $100 million severance payout. Yacht or ski resort?

She'll probably finish up big brother. I don't think she'll enjoy working at CBS, without Moonves behind her. She won't have the power to get people fired anymore. She'll have to be humble and collegial. It would be hard to go from Queen to just one of the gang.

The new powers at CBS can wage a media campaign against her. The stories of her shitty behavior can get a lot more attention from bigger news outlets. That would turn a lot of her fans against her.

Yes but who else would hire her? QVC maybe.

R65, I was about to make the same comment. If she really has been playing queen bee based on her political clout at the network, there will be a lot of people who will take great pleasure making her pay without her protector.

R11, no fucking way is Julie returning to BB. She’s done. OVER.

I would begrudge her less for getting her jobs via Moonves if she was actually talented.

She will continue on both shows. Something this fall or winter, she'll have a tantrum during a View production meeting and the hammer will fall. TPTB at CBS will privately, firmly, definitely tell her that her word is no longer law. The show is a collaborative effort and if she doesn't agree with that, well, let's meet with your agents and lawyers to talk about an exit strategy that preserves everyone's career. And also about how you covered up and had knowledge of that that lizard you married was doing.

sometime, not something.

how can you do that R52?

Julie Chen is a fucking MESSSS in life, hunty!

Did she show up at The Talk today?

OMG JULIE CHEN NO-SHOW ON THE TALK SEASON PREMIERE TODAY!!

'THE TALK' ladies all saying, "I love Julie, I support Julie!"

But why?

How could Julie not know about the shenanigans and philandering?

How do they not see Julie as a massive, unprofessional whore?

Especially if Julie Chen was blasting Bill Cosby and others so much.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

R70, i think...you mean...The Talk

The ladies did not go easy on the Moonves

damn, she looks so different without all that make up. still ugly.

THE NETWORK SHOULDN'T HAVE TO REMOVE MOONVES OR CHEN!

THEY WOULD BOTH RESIGN IF THEY HAD ANY DECENCY!

BUT WE KNOW THEY DON'T!

Julie Chen is guilty of nepotism and whoring. She enabled Moonves' attitude at the least; I don't see how she couldn't know Moonves was fucking around. She accepted the unprofessional proposals from Moonves -- we all know how explicitly the whoring probably went down now. NOT PROFESSIONAL.

That and the hypocrisy of grilling other #MeToo rapists are cause for both Chen to RESIGN and/or CBS to fire her.

maybe she should get her eyes reversed back to 1998 or whatever/ better employment opportunities maybe?

The opening scenes of BB1 from 2000. The house looks like a daycare center, the video quality is set on "potato," and Julie has an early working prototype of "I need to speak to your manager" hair.

Cut out the racist and misogynist comments and maybe you have something else to offer? Julie Chen certainly didn't earn her positions and fame the usual way, that doesn't mean she hasn't grown into them and I believe that CBS will keep her on Big Brother. The Talk is a terrible show and she would be wise to exit mid season unless she is going to get honest about her life with her husband. I see a BIG book deal in Julie's future. She's smart. She may be the queen (Letterman was forced to have her on repeatedly as IF she were a big celebrity) but that doesn't make her a tyrant or a bitch. Julie is very well liked by all her coworkers and most of the crew. It's an interesting predicament. Barbara Walters had as many bad affiliations as Julie Chen, but she had some actual credentials too.

She's jockeying for a cameo in the sequel to "Crazy Rich Asians."

For CBS, I would think the bottom line is still the #s. If Chenbot has high Q rating and can bring in viewers, they won't fire her regardless she's a cunt off cam or hubby is a perv. She may resign though but I doubt it.

R1 I love you!

Karma's a bitch, kiddo.

I wonder if Julie knew the ladies were going to go hard on Les on today’s show. If she continues to stand by her man it will be very uncomfortable if/when she returns.

Has Lynda Carter made a statement?

[quote] Has Lynda Carter made a statement?

Was she one of the accusers?

All these Jewish-Chinese alliances are troubling as most prove to be anti-social.

Lynda came to Les’ defense last month, r89. Apparently he never tried to fondle her Wonder Tots.

R90 Similar interests: Money and Power!

If she denounces and renounces him her job is safe. She'll even get a book or two out of it. Long suffering wife is torn between exposing her pig husband and living with shame. She'll even play the Chinese card .

Otherwise, gone to be rarely heard from again within a year.

I have not taken into account any interaction between her and her monster husband's victims.

Let her stay. And, let her now be treated how she has treated others these past years. Woman fucked around with a married guy and is shocked he fucked around on her. The 120 million wont happen. 20 m will come out of Moonves side and cbs will do what it can to not pay him out. And, Chen will learn what its like to be treated when your husband isn't there.

Wouldn't she have some severance package in her own contracts?

I would think in order to save face she would finish out season 20 of B.B. and work the remainder of her contract on The Talk. I really do think the ladies on The Talk are truly friends and would have her back. This situation with her husband may be bigger than the two of them. Chances are her marriage could very well be ending sooner than later. She has her son to think of and try to protect from the scandal.

I bet they'll buy her contract out and move on.

R94 agreed. Fuck this bitch. She only got to where she was cause she fucked that troll. Never could stand him or her. They reek of smugness and arrogance. Karmas a bitch. But in their case I’m enjoying every second of it.

Hearing rumors she’ll finish the 20th season of Big Brother and then do the Celebrity version.

If she goes back on The Talk it just seems that for almost everything she says or does that black cloud will hover over her.

She won’t be returning for the Talk, and she also won’t be back on BB.

Bye, cunt!!!

Does this mean she did what Les made his accusers do? For every accuser there are probably 10 that went thriugh with it. Like Rene Zellweger and Harvey Weinstein.

I can't wait till the next time she tries to pull her "Do you know who I am?"/"I'm going to make a few phone calls" shit and they laugh in her face. She might, only might, work out her current contracts, but she's gone.

Yeah, hope she invested wisely. Bye ugly cunt! Not that I ever watch any of her shows lol...I only watch 60min on cbs.

Julie will soon star in NCIS SVU.

R96 thinks she's Casper, the friendly ghost

I cant stand this bitch! I am not happy about her situation, but she was a nasty ho who broke up a marriage........

Bye Ching Chong!

She has love him long long time. Now she make big big money in divorce. Smart whore if you ask me

She’ll be in crazy rich Asians - the reality show

Is it to late for her to join the real housewives of Beverly hills?

She'd do well on there. And she has real money via les moonves.

Miss Chen was a local news reader for CBS on New York city about twenty years ago. She was a pasty looking thing with a flabby looking nose. Chen got a nose job, a tan and lost some weight and transformed herself into the vixen she is today, she kept her low pitched sexy speaking voice.

As her restructured career is so closely aligned with Moonves, its more than likely we will be seeing the back of her shortly.

she did not have eye surgery, but a much needed nose job. the original nose was a large, shapeless mass.

Check your facts. Chen talked about her eyelid surgery on The Talk. It was a segment where each co-host revealed a secret about themselves. I don't watch the show, but her reveal made the news at the time. It's not particularly newsworthy, but as always on DL - there are far too many racist comments in this discussion. A lot of Asian women feel that there eyes don't show up on television. Connie Chung used to joke about it all the time. Chen talked about her eyelid surgery because she was conflicted that she dishonored her heritage. There is no reason to trash her about her facial features or ethnicity, unless of course you are a racist.

Ching Chong

Video for my post at R114.

If she returns to The Talk, it won't be for long.

She won’t return to The Talk or BB. Come on, people, use some common sense.

She won’t be coming back to either BB or Talk.

[quote] A lot of Asian women feel that there eyes don't show up on television.

You sound like the racist one, R114.

Eyelid surgery? If so, it's not the big thing going on here. She had half of her original big round nose removed and the remainder reshaped. She's very dishonest for leaving that out of her sob story.

She will be back!

I don't feel sorry for her. Had an affair, fucked the guy in charge, was an overbearing ass to all and now will reap her fuck ups.

I don't feel sorry for her, but I'm not sure she should lose her jobs. She's been established in top rated shows for years. It's no longer nepotism at work, IF she divorces him.

But if she is fired, no one else will hire her for a long time. I realize they won't call it a dismissal.

Star Jones has never been back, Soledad O'Brien, Connie Chung and Anne Curry don't have network gigs. They are all better on air personalities than Julie Chen and they didn't fuck over anybody.

Colleen Zenk put on Facebook something about Moonves saying that ATWT and GL had 'had their day' and now it's over adding #karma.

I think those two shows would still be on the air if the ratings were high; and turning ATWT into Port Charles helped kill it. Also, GL killing Phillip, turning the show over to Ellen, Kreizman etc. killed GL.

Julie may have to divorce her husband, he did horribly wrong.

Les Moonves ex-wife says she and Moonves kids DO NOT watch Big Brother

"Neither I nor our children have watched it in years," Nancy told the New York Daily News in June 2004. "I don't want to see [Chen]. It's not healthy for me or my kids." She continued, "I knew our marriage would end eventually. But the way it happened was not correct, it was not moral."

Why should she divorce him? Her kid still needs a father. Now that he's outta big job, he will have more time to spend with the kid. She's known about his behaviour for years. There is no way she didn't know. She obviously doesn't give a shit. She only cares about the benefits that came with the marriage, the power, money etc.

How could you stay partnered with someone who you knew had such a bad moral and harmful character. I mean he physically assaulted people. Most people want to be proud of their relationship. He's toxic. That not the father a kid needs.

Y'all so stupid.

She's a she, AND Asian.

She ain't goin' nowhere.

You're an old white fag pig R130. Don'tcha Know. Your opinion is ridiculous, callous and racist of course.

R124, I came back!

Struck a nerve, did I, R131? How hard it is to hear the truth.

What nerve did you strike? You made misogynist and racist comments. Old white fags on Datalounge do that often enough. I am not a woman and not Asian. You still offend me R130.

What the hell is "ATWT" and "GL"?

You have failed at life, R135. I’m embarrassed for you.

We've all heard of a powerful and wealthy guy getting a women half his age R129. Look at Weinstein. Melania even said she married Trump for his money and he married her for her looks. Does anyone think an attractive woman would be attracted to an overweight slop that was poor? And don't tell me it would be for his mind.

I'm available!

She’s an honorary white person...she went and got her eyes fixed so she wouldn’t look Asian...married a Bloomingdale Jew...she sold her soul a while ago. Don’t pity her...

Bloomingdale Jew? What's that?

Gee, sorry to have offended your dainty, delicate feelings, R131/134, but I'm a 62-year-old professional who recently got kicked to the curb by my employer, after 20 years of slavish devotion to duty.

The company made it CRYSTAL clear during the preceding years that it had to do SOMETHING about its "diversity problem" - meaning, giving a leg up to women and people of color.

Translation: older, disabled, gay white men need not apply/are totally expendable.

So I know what I'm talking about. And that's WITHOUT resorting to using the word "fag," unlike dainty, delicate, shitheaded, clueless you.

r135, I'm assuming As the World Turns and The Guiding Light, which I think were cancelled to make time for The Talk.

If Julie does stay, no more #metoo chat and who's cheating on who gossip. Since that is 60% of this shows content. She's done.

[quote] The company made it CRYSTAL clear during the preceding years that it had to do SOMETHING about its "diversity problem" - meaning, giving a leg up to women and people of color. Translation: older, disabled, gay white men need not apply/are totally expendable.

Seen that myself, R141.

If Chen stays, she'll find that "You know who I am, don't you" and "Don't force me to make a few phone calls" won't work any more when she doesn't get her way. She won't be able to bully without repercussions. I'm not sure she'll want to stay in those circumstances.

Julie has discussed on The View in detail customs and ways of the Asian people. She is always concerned about how her family looks at things. I’m sure this has been a huge disappointment to her family.

Thank you, R144.

See what I mean, twat at R131/134? Eat my "fag" ass.

Who wants to eat a disabled 62 year old unemployed fag ass? Gross Gramps.

Julie Chen has nothing to do with the failures and misfortunes of your life. Stop directing your anger at minorities and maybe your pathway to happiness will unblock your nasty ancient ass. Good luck.

I like her, I can't help it.

How does Julie Chen like to be eaten out?

Butt first. .

I don’t even watch the bitch. How anyone in their right mind could watch the frau fest known as the Talk is beyond me. Isn’t Sharon Osborne supposed to retire anyway? Christ it seems like some of these shows have been on 50 years.

Les' interim replacement CEO has definite gay face. Perhaps the CBS soaps are safe after all.

What is with R152's headline? Are they implying "a Pace University grad" is something low?

Bad luck Julie. Now she cant bully anyone like her husband.

r154 That bitch and Sharon are going down

She and her husband deserve to go down for canceling Guiding Light. I watched that show with my Grandma in the 70's and it was a classic.

I watched Guiding Light in the 1950s eating lunch with my mother, before I was old enough to go to school. She refused to miss it. It was only 15 minutes long then. I think it had earlier been a radio soap when she a little girl and she had grown up on it.

But Julie Chen! Never mind decades of broadcast history, Julie had to have a show! And we should be grateful she got one no matter what the cost, because, you know, Julie Chen!

[quote]She'll even play the Chinese card .

[quote]Bye Ching Chong!

[quote]She has love him long long time. Now she make big big money in divorce. Smart whore if you ask me —LiChow Chen

Et al.

She got the Big Brother gig in 2000, well before the two started dating 4 years later. With The Talk, you can argue that was pure nepotism.

The Talk is arguably what tarnished her reputation and made her out to be a hypocrite. She regularly came to the defense of #MeToo victims on The Talk but "stood by her man" in the fallout of her husband's own #MeToo scandal. The clips of her reflexively going after #MeToo accusers yet standing by Les doesn't make her look very credible in retrospect, and many of them have gone viral in the past few months.

[quote]She got the Big Brother gig in 2000, well before the two started dating 4 years later.

We know when they publicly began dating but do really know when they secretly started fucking?

[quote]We know when they publicly began dating but do really know when they secretly started fucking?

True but 4 years is a long time for straight couples to be fuck buds before making it official, though he was married to another woman until they got divorced in 2004. He married Julie in Mexico 13 days after his divorce was final!

They began seeing each other publicly while Moonves was separated but yet divorced from his first wife. But most people think they were fucking much earlier and the little gold digger stole him from the mother of his children.

It's always weird to me that people are married to the same person for decades (nearly three decades in Les' case) and then they divorce and marry someone else. When will he trade Julie in for an upgrade?

"Jenny made her mind up at twenty-two,

To get herself a husband was the thing to do;

So she got herself all dolled up in her satins and furs

And she got herself a husband--but he wasn't hers."

Rough year for producer Sara Gilbert. First the Roseanne implosion and now The Talk could go down.

Expect an announcement today that a replacement has been found for Chenbot for tomorrow live Big Brother and for the foreseeable future.

R166, Please don't let it be Omarosa.

Julie to the other women of The Talk after they spoke up against Les:

Out of morbid curiosity, did the View address the situation at all?

They should get Ann Curry to replace Julie on The Talk. Would be doubly vindication for her, and for CBS. And a good fit, since she's a Half-Asian newscaster who is a bit stodgy and could use the softer side.

R141 You weren’t fired after 20 years just to add more diversity; you were probably incompetent or did something wrong.

Julie is a dead woman walking. There is no way CBS will keep her around as she is too closely tied to Moonves and she's not become caught up in the whole #metoo movement. She will not return to the Talk and they will replace her as host of Big Brother if not this season, next.

You, too, can eat my ass, R171.

Margaret Cho. She and Sara would have a great dynamic.

Bullshit R171 . My friend was fired after 23 years for the same exact reason,and he hadnt even had a raise in 5 years. Since he left 2 years ago theyve had FIVE "people of color" fill his position then they quit or get fired. He did nothing wrong and was very good at his job,but as a 60 year old gay white man he was disposable. Ive been saying for years that familiarity breeds contempt , and I knew they gay backlash was going to happen , and so its beginning.

Why should CBS trust Julie on a live TV broadcast? They shouldn’t even consider having her do Big Brother tomorrow, much less (pardon my pun) next season.

Considering they are keeping Les on as a consultant Julie's job is probably safe for now.

Where did you hear that, R177? No way that’s happening. He’s OUT and so is she.

Sorry R178, he is staying on as an advisor, not consultant.

He will never step foot in CBS again. The advisor role won’t happen. They are trying to save face and ward off a lawsuit from him, which he’ll never win BTW.

Well that's your opinion R180.

Is her career over? If she sues for divorce, then yes. He is a vindictive psychopath. He would grind her into dust. If "she stands by her man", then no. He'll still be powerful behind the scenes.

Since we have no idea what is in his contract we really don't know if he would win or lose R180.

There were stories and BIs at the time that she screwed around with him while he was married. And I believe his kids were young at the time. There have also been BIs through the years that she is a bitch and used her marriage to him as a sword. If they keep her it will not be for long. She is not well liked and initially was not supposed to be on the View.

I don't think it's much of a secret that Chen is pretty much universally disliked at CBS.

Kids, tonight we celebrate! The ban on Chinese food is off!

R140, it’s a Jewish, wealthy conservative who is just as elitist and bigoted as his/her Christian white counterparts.

R187, you've also described at least half of Trump's cabinet. And I'd throw in that they're usually married to a white Christian - aka Shiksa.

I can't see JC returning to the Talk unless the panel is obliged to walk on egg shells to avoid any subject that might make Julie and the audience uncomfortable. You can't control what guests say and plenty will be #metoo supporters I say she's gone for good

However, BB is a big money maker and Julie is the face of BB. I say she's back tonight and she finishes out the season. Next year we may see someone take her place.

Julie will probably divorce LM. If she doesn't her career is over.

No, it’s not R181.

True r188. Should have mentioned that many of the Male BJs marry shiksas. The blonder, the better.

R189, it’s not tonight, it’s tomorrow night and I think they’re replacing her.

If she returns to The Talk, what will they talk about? Alot of their topics are gossip because they don’t do politics. How can Julie return and gossip about anyone’s life when hers is such a mess? Bye Julie.

Julie can get her own show called “The Walk”.

Yes it is R190. You sound like Trump, facts are not important to you and an opinion, not based on facts, is a fact to you.

There are few weeks left for this season of Big Brother. Julie will finish it out. Even if CBS wanted her out it would take weeks of negotiations to get her out. She's tough.

Howard Stern played with Less and Julie sock puppets yesterday. LMAO

That he assaulted a medical doctor, even though it wasn't work related, is going to do him in. She's a medical professional and wrote an attack about it in a medical journal without naming him. He admits he tried to kiss her, but that was it. Though it was a long time ago it shows pattern and practice. Even she was told not to report him because he was so powerful. A doctor! And some of you expect poor aspiring actors and actresses to report these people. Don't think he will be advising long.

Do these idiots think they're Clark Gable in "Gone with the Wind" where they can just grab a woman and try to kiss her and the woman will be a willing receiver? Even a hot guy may not be able to get away with such behavior, but imagine someone like this or Weinstein? Blech!

Does Julie REALLY think that Les has been faithful to her? She stands by him today, always forever. What a god damn fool! Just go away Julie. You give women a bad rep.

[post redacted because linking to dailymail.co.uk clearly indicates that the poster is either a troll or an idiot (probably both, honestly.) Our advice is that you just ignore this poster but whatever you do, don't click on any link to this putrid rag.]

Well of course she’ll never leave him. He’s probably a billionaire by now.

She's likely already negotiating her way out of her contract.

Read what Linda Bloodworth Thomason (Designing Women) wrote about Moonves in the Hollywood Reporter. She did not leave anything left unsaid, and she rightfully hates his guts.

Now I'm curious to hear what Diane English would have to say? Will some storyline about the metoo movement be worked into the new Murphy Brown? English and Bloodworth-Thomason were doing shows for CBS at about the same time.

Julie has a huge following among Big Brother enthusiasts, who affectionately named her Chenbot, due to her sometimes lack of emotion in her delivery. I wasn't a fan of BB. I did like her the few times I saw the Talk. She showed a personality and even cracked a couple of jokes. Even if she was given the show through nepotism, if she's performing well, there's no reason to fire her, provided that she gets along with her coworkers and supervisors. She's been doing Big Brother for 18 years; it wouldn't make sense to fire her from that show. (But if they did, then probably a former contestant should be named the new host.) Regarding the Talk, it was weird how the show one day returned and simply refused to explain why two panelists (Remini and Peete) were suddenly gone. I liked their energy. In the press, their dismissal seemed to be painted as the result of a feud with Sharon. Sharon is not a nice person; I always suspected that Julie is afraid of her. From what I can tell, the accusations come from the time before Moonves married Chen. So maybe she wasn't aware of what he was doing. I don't think she should be fired automatically because of what her husband did.

They didn't know themselves and were ghetto.

There's no way Julie's passing up the opportunity to watch her least favorite contestant get evicted tomorrow night.

Reading that Bloodworth Thomason piece, I felt angry for her. There's no way Julie had no idea what a terrible man Moonves is all these years. She just didn't care.

Yes, her career is probably over. I wonder do they have to pipe the words into an earpiece for her since I assume she can’t read cue cards or a TelePrompTer?

Judging from recent candid shots of Julie, the make up crew at The Talk are miracle workers.

If she stays, it will be a culture shock. She will be going from an environment where everyone was scared to death of her (CBS News was even scared to break into The Talk for breaking news) to no one giving two shits about her. I don't think she can handle that.

Connie Chung won't give Julie Chen the time of day, despite Julie saying over and over and over again that Connie was her idol growing up

I love Connie Chung. That one had a sparkle in her tiny eyes. Connie was a Barbara Walters style viper. She come up on ya like a spider.

Since you took it on the chin, you have lost that toothpaste grin

My mental state is all a jumble, I sit around and sadly mumble

She'll finish the season on BB. Then she'll never return and she won't return to The Talk. Hopefully, that will put that shitfest out of its misery.

when Celebrity Big Brother comes back next year, it'll probably be with Ross and/or Marissa hosting. Julie won't be back again, I just hope they don't get someone awful like Ross to replace her on the regular seasons.

Julie Chen will end her broadcast days as a "Special Correspondent" who does stories for CBS Evening News or CBS Sunday Morning. You know, quicky stories on Easter candy or the oldest bakery in America. Filler shit.

In engineering, the Asian women who flooded the industry turned back a lot of strides made by women in the workplace by adopting regressive tactics such as sleeping their way up or always siding with white managers, no matter how dumb those guys were.

They really had a bad effect, but the ones who suffered most were the Asian women who didn't want to go that route.

[quote]Julie Chen will end her broadcast days as a "Special Correspondent" who does stories for CBS Evening News or CBS Sunday Morning. You know, quicky stories on Easter candy or the oldest bakery in America. Filler shit.

So Julie Chen was basically the Gio Benitez of CBS News.

Since Julie Chen is LA based, she will not be heading back to CBS News in any capacity

I don't like the idea of women being reprimanded for her husband's actions. I've watched Julie for over a decade on Big Brother and she has just found her stride in the past few seasons and she seems nice enough. But her comments coming after MeToo accusers on The Talk and defending the actions of her husband is going to haunt her.

She not only is taking time off from The Talk (during premiere week no less!) but is blocking people from posting comments on her Instagram now. Julie girl is taking it hard.

R174 - OMG, brilliant

Look, no one in their right mind believes Chen is where she is at CBS based on pure talent. She couldn't earn all of this based on her brain, so she fucked this guy. People can pretend she didn't, but she fucking did. He's always been a creep, so the idea that she didn't fuck her way to where she is, is ludicrous.

I mean, she was removed entirely from CBS News and hosts a mindless summer reality series and a daytime talk show. It's not like she's the moderator of Face the Nation or the anchor on the CBS Evening News.

R223, she's like a lot of newspeople who don't really want to be serious journalists. They want to do fluff Natalie Morales comes to mind. She was dying to "Extra" type crap/

She'll probably stay with Big Brother at minimum. It is entirely a Fly on the Wall/Endemol production and it requires very little communication with the people in power at CBS.

Apologies for the syntax. Wrote it quick and didn't spellcheck.

I wonder if CBS will cancel Celebrity Big Brother. It was picked up for a second season in May.

Not after all that publicity they got for Omarosa on Season 1. It'll be back with Stormy Daniels in the cast, whether Julie's hosting or not.

I feel bad for their son Charlie Chen-Moonves

I remember a few years back when Julie was on howard stern when The Talk did a week in NYC. She said something to the effect of Barbara Walters needed to stay away from The View to protect her legacy.

Because at the time there was a lot of bull shit going on back stage at The View. And Julie felt that ABC should even cancelle The View.

Now look at the shit her husband's caught up in.

JEssie Godderz needs to host big brother - shirtless every night.

[quote]I feel bad for their son Charlie Chen-Moonves

Are you shitting me? They named the kid Charlie Chen???

R230 She suggested a the rival show she was mimicking should be cancelled? That sounded a little self serving of Julie.

R230, Didn't she also tell Stern that she actually told that to Walters at some event?

[quote]She is not well liked and initially was not supposed to be on the View.

And she never has been.

jules is coming out of this scandal being exposed as an enabling, spiteful , two faced bitch.

See you tomorrow night LIVE on Big Brother, R236!

Even worse, R232. The kid carries a magnifying glass around with him everywhere he goes.

r232 Dying here. LMAO

Dear Jules. Go away. Please and now. Thank you!

Breaking news: Julie Chen has been replaced by Juju Chang, who will be given a smokey eye.

As with the changing of the Darrens, there will be no explanation given.

Why does the Asian who was on Big Brother years ago loathe Julie Chen? She has been dragging her on Twitter for years.

"I wonder if Julie Chen will take her eyelash brooms with her when she leaves CBS."

A moving truck was spotted at their house in LA. Looks like someone is moving.

That editorial by Linda Bloodworth Thomason was the best..."Let’s be clear. Shoving your tongue or penis down a woman’s throat during an office meet and greet is not a 'mistake.' It is an act of terror"

She's right; Linda's essay, while so rich to read it must be fattening, leaves out a couple of points; did she ever have a hit other than DW?

Didn't Delta Burke accuse Linda and her husband of bullying her during shooting DW?

I recall LBT having several projects on the air until Clinton got impeached.

pathetic, jules replacement is an asian woman.

they have a formula and aint changing it.

Oh, R247. Go have some more coffee.

Why does Leah Remini HATE Sharon Osborne?

R249 Does she really need a reason?

Julie Chen is the poor man's Wendy Deng.

Vegas has tweeted that Chen is still on the call sheet for tonight. I’ll believe she’ll be there when I see it.

Fuck 'em all. My heart belongs to Kaity Tong.

Fuck you, R253.

Is Connie Chung taking over Big Brotherrrrrrrr?

Carrie Ann Inaba is the rightful heir to the throne.

What am I, chopped wonton?

Chen's a COLD, HOOKER MESSSSS, GURL!

The Moonves house will soon look like the ending of the movie Audition

Julie in the Love Tshirt. Oh, gurl.

I can see Julie divorcing Les, winning custody of their son and trying to stay working in broadcasting; personally, I think the Wiig imitation says it all; #chickagirlfriends

but she might find work.

Yeah, she is a survivor.

R233 Yes she actually said they should cancel The View. Even though they've been around first and since the 90s. Julie Chen really is crazy for saying or even thinking that.

R234 I believe she did actually tell Barbara Walters not to return to The View. But she had just left the show. But I believe there was a rumor going around that Barbara was considering a return to The View to help get it back on track.

But they just ended up firing nichole wallace, rosie perez, and rosie O'Donnell quit for the second time. And they brought joy back and that help the direction the show was going in.

I personally love The View. It's the original panel show and the rest are just cheap ripoffs. I've been watching since I was a kid in 1997 and I love the real discussions they have.

The talk is very sterile which is why I don't watch them. I'm not really into the real either.

She really might divorce as this is bringing shame to her family. He parents are very traditional and were hard on her and her two sisters growing up. It was all about honor and perfection

Our friend Julie is a cunt.

R256, Not so fast. This could be my comeback!

I knew my friend Julie was a cunt!

Maybe she will be on BB tonight because they figure it will be good for ratings, but the ratings may be good even if they replace her tonight as people will tune in just to see what happens.

Eve is such a sweetie. Good pick.

If Julie goes I'd like to see Jerry o'connell take her place. Funny as hell and he does good drag.

please. someone more attractive. minority.

GAYS -

Remember that I will be making my first public appearance on Big Brother TONIGHT at 8PM EST (30 minutes) on CBS. You don't want to miss it!

Kisses, Julie

It is 8:26 in New York right now R272.

R273- Julie is not having a great week. I think she meant 9 on the east coast!

Chen is now Chow Mein. We may see her in a LaChoy or Chung King commercial here and there.

She is probably hoping Les croaks soon so she can get it all.

So where’s the poster who was insisting Julie would not host tonight’s show?

My husband, some hotshot, here's his ancient Chinese secret...

Social climber Julie Chen hitched her gash to the wrong wagon. Hopefully.....

Wrong wagon? She walks away from that marriage a multi multi millionaire. Chickie doesn't need to work again. Ever.

1 minute to go...

The bitch had the nerve to show up!

She's on.

But first...

Dressed in black.

Go Julie Go. What did she do wrong? This thread has the worst characters on it. I know she knew at least some of it, but she's not the perpetrator. Big Brother is Julie Chen's show. As dull as she is the show is worse when she's not there. I watched in one season when I had cancer and then the next one to prove I was better. Julie WAS the lowkey presence of decency and insight on that knuckledraggin shit show.

Hold your chin up Julie Chen.

R286 for the win!

lol, r278,

They could just have Julie phone her part in on the Talk from a separate studio while the others interact on the soundstage.

Della is just one of the old racist boys of DL. I ain't been here long but that's a fat pig there. Sitting on her couch, trying to breathe and be clever. OLD.

R289, that would be hilarious and I am a Julie fan.

lol,r290. You're not too bright, are you?

Not that I owe you an accounting, but here: I'm not laughing at Asians. I'm laughing at the absurdity and stereotypes of that commercial from the 60s that r278 posted.

Get it? Sheeesh.

Oh, and your own post reeked of cleverness. Not.

Moonves is the BOT!

Sorry lady. I'm not that old to understand the brilliant reference you made to some old racist commercial from 50 years ago. The use of "NOT" as a clever afterthought disclaimer is barely in my frame of reference. But "you go girl"

Here you go, R294.

You're depraved on account of you're deprived.

Rumor has it Rachel Maddow might end up hosting big brother.

I guess we'll see. But she's not leaving MSNBC. I don't see that happening not any time soon.

That show is her sweet spot.

LOL R290.

We just saw her swan song.

Bye bye bitch.

I’m Julie Chen Moonves. Bitch is staying by his side. I’ve lost any respect for Jules.

Just for shits and giggles they should have Kathy Griffin host Celeb Big Brother.

My name is Mrs... Leslie... Moonves.

Julie is very talented. I'm sure she's impressed many of the CBS board members with her oral skills...

Did Julie Chen ever use the name Moonves before?

I am Mrs. Leslie Moonves Maine

Maybe she wants to get fired.

Maybe her whole life is in great turmoil. I don't mean that's she crying about the same things that real people do but she's exposed and discredited. It's not like people didn't know the story of her marriage and career before but over time she proved herself to be competent. Lowkey praise. To lose everything at once is devastating for anyone. She's not a rapist. Hopefully she'll be a Georgina and not a Camille.

[quote]Did Julie Chen ever use the name Moonves before?

Never. I have never heard her refer to herself as that in the decade+ I've watched BB.

[quote]Hopefully she'll be a Georgina and not a Camille.

Didn't she just basically cast herself as a Camille tonight?

I would call her announcing her new name doubling down.

In a weird way it made like her just a bit.

I am Mrs Norman Maine

" . . . in the decade+ I've watched BB."

Has a sadder, more pathetic, more if-it-weren't-for-reality-television-I'd-truly-have-no-life-at-all sentence fragment EVER been posted in the history of DL?

Where did yo hear that rumor R296? Rumor has it you don't know what you are talking about.

You're posting on a gay board that's known for endless Golden Girls threads and men presenting their dicks and assholes, R310. I don't think you have room to judge, sweetie.

[quote] We may see her in a LaChoy or Chung King commercial here and there.

When was the last time you saw a commercial for either of those brands? Are they still in existence? (And it's CHUN King, not Chung.)

[quote] Her parents are very traditional

So why were they OK with her breaking up another marriage and fucking a non-Asian?

Does ‘Pearl Cream’ need a new spokesperson?

Bet that bitch takes a pearl necklace from Les on a regular basis!

I don't give a shit, I don't watch any of her shows. she's too ugly.

I really don't understand why DL is attacking Julie, maybe it's DL's usually let's attack women schtick. She is not responsible for Monves actions. And if she's supporting him, she only doing what millions of people do when their family members are in trouble. None of this is fair to Julie.

I've never recovered from the traumatic experience of seeing her on teevee without makeup.

R317 Read the thread first mate, she is a car wash bullying cunt

has anyone called Lisa Ling ?

There's no way of all her years at CBS she's never heard the rumblings about her husband's behavior. She herself on The Talk bitched about Camille Cosby standing by her man while it seems hers did the exact same thing. She gets no pass from me. As I'v said before. Gossip is 60% of The Talk. How is she going to weigh in on any topic and be taken seriously?

Leave Della alone!! I've sparred with her in the past over a few issues but she is not prone to pettiness or posting vindictive comments.

What's DL fave Connie Chung doing?

@r317. That's too much hostility,

Bye bye Ling-Ling.

I'd start watching Big Brother again if Rachel Maddox was the host.

Who is Rachel Maddox R326?

She made sure she delivered a message by calling herself Julie Chen Moonves.... but she got the name of the Big Brother contestant wrong.

She looked him in the face and called him Brent. His name is Brett.

Real focused and professional.

I can't imagine CBS approved her using her married name. This makes her look like an asshole.

Sweetie you actually have to have a career for it to end!

You would think the smart approach would be for her to distance herself from her husband, not show loyalty by adding his last name to her own. What she did on BB is anti-feminist.

Chines women ride hard for there men, and they love supper hard. That's why she added his last name, she was sending a strong message to everyone.

Everything is very strategic with her.

Julie looks like a fool now. Pathetic. Does she really think that her perv hubby, with a LONG history of abusing his power, stopped his bad behavior as soon as she met him? Even he has admitted to this behavior while he was married to the previous wife. Julie is so stupid. I can’t stand to look at her anymore after the Julie Chen Moonves stupidity. She can go away now.

Can Les at 68 still get it up?

[quote] I can see Julie divorcing Les, winning custody of their son

Winning custody of their son? You think a 68 year old sexual predator wants a six year old hanging around?

After that stunt yes she needs to go

What's blowing my mind is seeing people on other sites defending her because they're happy she's not letting herself get pushed around.

Saying her name was equivalent to spitting on victims of sexual abuse. CBS needs to put out a statement today that she’s gone.

Oops, I meant “adding HIS name.”

Agreed. I hope that got her fired. For someone who is supposed to be so smart, that was a pretty stupid decision.

I'm guessing she knows she's done and decided to to that to just say fuck you all

Based on her sign off (calling Brett "Brent"), it's clear to me that to her, Big Brother is just a weekly job that lets her go in for hair and makeup, read a teleprompter, ask questions that are fed by a production assistant into her earpiece, and collect a paycheck. She is an enabler of sexual discrimination, and deserves to have her career brought to an end.

Adding the "Moonves" was a totally cunty move, disrespecting all of the women injured by her pervert husband.

What a bitch to pull that stunt. I am certain that CBS did not know she would do that. Julie, you look like an idiot today to do such a stupid stunt and to be standing by your perverted husband. You can’t come back from this, Julie.

The ladies of The Social thought that Julie might love her husband and her work, but that she gave the middle finger to his victims. Lainey also said there will be many more disclosures to come, so that Julie basically doubled down on her marriage.

Our friend Julie did not show up for work in The Talk today.

Thank you Brent. I’m Julie Chen Moonves. Out for the money.

Her arrogance and stupidity is confirmed with the 'screw all of you' sign off.

The loving couple's perp walk out to a waiting luxury vehicle tells you everything you need to know about this scenario= above it all.

10 to 1 odds that her name will not be on the opening credits on "The Talk" on Monday.

And she will be replaced on Big Brother as of next Thursday.

We'll see Joan Rivers on The Talk next week before we'll see Julie Chen Moonves.

r351 That's Joan Rivers ROSENBERG if you please!

Fanny Arnstein, Fanny Arnstein, what a beautiful, beautiful name!!!

Why is R18, R79, R105, and R316 (all the same person) obsessed with Julie's being "ugly". You add absolutely NOTHING to the thread, simply complaining about Julie being "ugly". Over and over again. WTF. She has good bone structure, facial harmony, and nice skin. You must have ultrahigh standards for women even though you don't want to fuck them. Bizarre.

I concur, R354.

So is her career over?

No, just in transition.

R350 She's done at the The Talk but it sounds like CBS will keep her on as host of Big Brother until the end of the season.

[quote]She'll probably stay with Big Brother at minimum. It is entirely a Fly on the Wall/Endemol production and it requires very little communication with the people in power at CBS.

Don't kid yourself. The network holds all the power and they will do whatever they want.

Former Big Brother contestant Will Wikle posted this in her defence:

[quote] when I was kicked off #BigBrother I started to tear up watching the goodbye messages, but the second we went to commercial, I reflexively started bawling out of control, fell into @juliechencbs’s arms and she comforted me with a sincere empathy & attention that shook me, given it was the first time we’d actually met irl. I left the set with half my face covered in her (tear streaked) body glitter. After this very picture was taken at the finale, she pulled me aside and told me she thought I had a skill set that, with proper guidance, could be parlayed into work in front of the camera. She said some industry friends had been in touch and asked if it was alright if her office coordinated some introductions (me = 💀). I for real nearly fell out on that astro turf lawn in my black velvet H&M women’s blazer. While I reveled in the blessing of Julie, I never expected her to actually follow through with a nobody like me after we left that yard. Flash forward months later to a promise kept and me booking jobs with Bravo, LOGO, and Clear Channel. I’m not writing this post to hype my now faded mainstream “career”, but to highlight my multiple opportunities to observe the generous, noble heart of a singular American success story...she has that First Generation self-made fire and has maintained grace & genuine kindness at her core in the face of extreme success that turns a lot of people into monsters. I watched the way she treated the crew and her assistants, I met her mom...I’m obvi not mourning Les’s comeuppance, but pray that Julie’s independence is respected in the media dissection. In reality, the ‘Chenbot’ is all heart, and I also know she has a steel backbone that will see her thru. I LOVE YOU, JULIE!! @cbs_bigbrother @thetalkcbs #JulieChen 💕🌎⭐️

What a lovely tribute.

And didn't he rebuff her advice and do porn?

She just said farewell.

So she’s letting her career go bye bye in order to support a preditor. How stupid.

Maybe her Asian culture upbringing figures in.

plus she has, I think the technical term is ...a shitload of money.

Guest Co-host Carney Wilson: The wife of a well-known network executive is standing by her man who allegedly abused his power by diddling most females in his orbit. I don't think I could tolerate the decades of infidelity.

Sharon:. I'd take a crap in the lunch of the man who takes his place and place small pipe bombs under the cars of the persons on the board.

Sara:. I'd apologize to all aggrieved parties, leave him for the first one to take me in without so much as a note, and immediately commence groveling to the company.

Sheryl: I'd leave his sorry ass with nothing but his clothes after cutting the ass out of all his pants.

Julie: It depends on how wealthy he is. I think I might try to work things out if he's loaded. (Looking at camera) What would YOU do if you worked for the same company after they forced your husband to resign in disgrace?

Kinda funny she filmed that on the Big Brother set. I read somewhere else she should have filmed it in the diary room. LOL

I never felt one way or the other towards Julie. However, after watching The Talk I have grown to respect her as a person and she seems very fair with her comments. I will miss her. I was surprised to find out the ladies truly are friends on the show. They have a different rapport than the ladies on The View.

That's because they never discuss politics.

She's been erased.

Julie who?

They're not actually friends, R369.

LOL at Julie erased from the credits and NOT talked about on The Talk when every other show was talking about her. Be gone.

Does Leslie have a mushroom penis?

Leslie Jones? Yes.

[quote]Does Leslie have a mushroom penis?

It's probably fungal, so yes.

Doubled down on BB. I guess she doesn’t understand the finale will be her final TV appearance. Bye bitch. Hope it’s worth it.

Is this a trial run for replacing Julie?

Bad idea to bring Rosie on. She doesn’t play well with others.

Rosie O'donnell Moonves.

It looks like Rosie is replacing Julie Chen on The Talk. She even said on Twitter that she'd be willing to move to LA for the show if they asked her.

Julie has vanished-

R383 Thank God!

I'm sure she can get a hostess job at Applebee's or somewhere.

I've also heard hotels in Las Vegas will essentially hire anyone. You don't even have to have decent hygiene according to one Datalounger in the know.
