Rosie O'Donnell's friends aren't content watching the View co-host chew out Elisabeth Hasselbeck on camera. They're taking the increasingly furious - and childish - fight back stage. Page Six reports:

Yesterday, Rosie's chief writer, Janette Barber, was allegedly escorted from the building after she was caught drawing moustaches on photographs of Hasselbeck that hang in the "View" studios.

The Post's Adam Buckman reports ABC confirmed in a statement only that "photographs at 'The View's' offices were defaced.

Meanwhile, the Post's gossip column also reports that Rosie may not be returning to The View to complete her contract:

When one fan wrote [to Rosie], "Work isn't worth that battle," Rosie replied, "Agreed." Another wrote, "Please walk away. It's not worth it." Rosie replied, "Well, you know when it's time to go."

To a fan who asked when she would return, O'Donnell answered, "No idea."

The notion that scandal-ridden actor Isaiah Washington would make a pro-gay PSA for GLAAD borders on the absurd. The entire set-up's like a bad plotline from an equally bad prime time soap: actor fucks up, goes to "rehab", makes PSA telling people not to fuck up. It's ridiculous! We've all read the words, but now you can see the - um - real deal above.

Meanwhile, TMZ also has an uber-bizarro video of Bobby Trendy and an American Idol reject (aka one of Trendy's horrible homo spawn) fagging it up. Warning: this video is not for the faint of heart. It is, however, perfect for anyone looking to call someone a faggot. Isaiah Washington take note.

Ch-ch-check it out, after the jump...

It's almost as if Gatecrasher has become the gay gossip's go-to:

Which designer and TV personality who advertises for sex online insists on hooking up with all the lights off so his tricks don't find out he's a (minor) celebrity?

There's an email circulating around town which suggests Jay Manuel and his miraculous hair may be leaving America's Next Top Model. Either that or network executives are offering viewers double the faggy fun.

A source close to the Tyra Banks-hosted beauty contest sent out a memo looking for a Manuel-esque, amiable, "honest" art director. Hmm, could it be that Manuel - who also produced ANTM - has decided to put all of his energies into hosting the show's Canadian counterpart? Or perhaps he's spending more time offering the lonely hearts at Match.com a little love advice?

Of course, Manuel may also just want to spend more time with his boyfriend, who he allegedly once described to Elle Girl as a "rock hard top". Ewwww...

(PS: We have searched high and low for that Elle Girl interview, but to no avail. Gay gold star to the reader who produces the revolting text.)

TR Knight's not the only Grey's Anatomy star grabbing headlines this week. Rumor has it Isaiah Washington will not be returning to the hit ABC series. At least not on a regular basis.

Us quotes a proverbial insider: “He will not be back as a series regular". The actor - whose faggot flinging led Knight to come out of the closet - may appear in a few episodes. The article also claims that Knight didn't earn many friends during his two season stay on the set.

Katherine Heigl, 28, said her costar “just needs to stop talking” after Washington used the f-word again at the January 15 Golden Globes, but the damage had been done.

“The cast – especially the women – just don’t like him,” says a Grey’s source.

“The stars of the show really felt ABC made a mistake by keeping Isaiah [after his controversial behavior].”

We're on the edge of our seats!!! Okay, not really, but we bet Washigton's shitting bricks...

The Young and the Restless' Bryton McClure - who fancies himself worthy of first name recognition - may have a skeleton in the closet. Either that or someone's using the actor's picture for their profile on online hook-up site, Adam4Adam.

We can't say for certain that's Bryton - who founded RADD (Recording Artists, Actors and Athletes Against Drunk Driving) - but it sure does raise some serious questions. For example: does Bryton do dudes? Also, if it is, in fact, Bryton, why does he lie about his age? The real Bryton McClure came into this world on August 17, 1986, which means he's a mere 20 years old. This Adam4Adam profile, however, claims he's 27.

Something isn't quite adding up here. Any clues, readers?

(Note: As of this writing, Adam4Adam's experiencing technical difficulties, so the above link won't work. Luckily, we had the foresight to snap a shot of Bryton's alleged profile.)

Today's NYDN queer query doesn't even try:

Which mocked-up reality show "relationship" is set to unravel now that the guy wants his 15 minutes of fame - and doesn't want to pretend to be straight anymore?

No doubt Elton John's European fans are shaking their faggy fists today. The gay singer's management has regrettably announced that John will not be performing in Venice, Paris, Seville, Berlin or Moscow for his "Red Piano Tour". An Elton flack released the following statement:

We regret to announce that Elton John's European 'Red Piano' shows have been canceled. The promoter has been unable to guarantee to put on the shows, resulting in us having to take this very difficult decision.

We do of course appreciate that Elton's fans will be disappointed at this news, and we are already looking into the possibility of returning to the affected cities in the very near future.

Rosie O'Donnell's most recent blog entry's saturated with piss and vinegar. The soon-to-be ex-View co-host writes:

There's apparently been so much speculation into the identity of that massage-loving actor, Gatecrasher ran an elaboration:

Someone with experience of our often-cited massage-therapist-loving Hollywood star writes in with a description of exactly how he hits on them: "He tells the therapist that he's had so many massages he's become an expert - then tries to get him on the table so he can massage him."

Meanwhile, The Post has this little tid-bit:

Which state legislator is about to come under heavy fire from gay activists because she's not supporting the gay marriage bill? They say that although her legal residence is in Brooklyn, she really lives with her lesbian partner in Manhattan

George Michael may be packing his bags. British press are reporting that the troubled 43-year old singer - who just last week admitted to being a drug addict and has been found guilty of driving under the influence - can't handle the tabloid heat:

The kind of media coverage I've been having, I have started thinking for the first time in my life that actually I shouldn't be living there.

I think there are places I could live and still be able to visit home where I would not have to worry about this constant surveillance. I have got to think seriously about whether or not my love for my country is keeping me somewhere which is not good for me.

Ben Widdicombe offers us even more gay-flavored fun:

Which married, massage therapist-loving actor had to pay a guy off on the set of his current film after he got a little too touchy-feely?
