George Hamilton tells THE VIEW: “I had an affair with my stepmother when I was 12″

October 17th, 2008 by Scott Marks

The picture tells all. In an attempt to hawk copies of his memoir Don’t Mind If I Do, George Hamilton came armed with photographic evidence to tell the yentas on The View all about the sexual relations he had with his stepmother when he was twelve.

Barbara Walters is the first to breech the affair with the terminally tanned twat. Hamilton explains that one year before his Bar Mitzvah, he had an affair with his 30-year-old stepmother, June Howard. Why not? As Hamilton explains she was “not a kin, not blood.” Oh, that’s different. Go ahead! You can tell that Joy Behar is visibly excited at the thought of a younger man satisfying an older woman.  “He was a mature twelve” is all the flummoxed Behar can come up with.

“My father never knew about it,” Hamilton explains. His dad, George “Spike” Hamilton, who obviously didn’t live up to his nickname, passed away while the affair was still in progress. “It was very normal,” George, Jr. continues. “She didn’t make me feel bad about it. It wasn’t dirty.” How dirty might it have been had the roles been reversed and a 30-year-old Hamilton was banging his 12-year-old stepdaughter? When Behar informs George that he was molested, the quick-witted stud replies, “It was molestation? Damn! I’m down for it again.” (Insert big laugh from the studio audience.)

The abuse continued for a brief time and when Hamilton became of age the couple reunited for a “follow-up.”  Whoopi tries to help by asking if younger boys being “broken in” by older women was more common in George’s youth. “It didn’t feel abnormal at the age of twelve,” George adds. “It was called something…cuddling and I cuddled.” Well, one man’s cuddling is another man’s statutory rape.

George doesn’t doubt that some might consider it exploitation, but “from my point of view it wasn’t something so crazy…I don’t think it warped me in my life.” Given his ego, it was probably far too late for that to happen.

The Daily Mail asserts that George is, “‘without guilt’ towards his father George Snr  -  perhaps because his stepmother, the ‘beautiful, homewrecking’ June Howard, was the woman who had destroyed his parents’ marriage.”

Barbara Walters sat quietly through the interview and when she felt as thought the topic had been thoroughly covered, she segues into another part of the book never once calling Hamilton on being the slimy braggart that he is. Are these old broads on The View so desperate for ratings that they’ll let some third rate actor appear on their show in an attempt to celebrate and minimize the impact of sex with minors in order for him to sell books?

George’s son (and the former Mr. Shannon Doherty) Ashley Hamilton, now being billed as a stand-up comic, followed his dad with a set of jokes that Johnny Yune would have rejected.

Barbara Walters confesses affair with senator to Mother Superior Oprah

May 1st, 2008 by Scott Marks

It was a meeting of daytime TV’s two biggest yentas, Barbara Walters and Oprah Winfrey. Walters brought her view to Harpo Studios and, not to be upstaged on Winfrey’s turf, Babs let loose a powerhouse piece of personal gossip: She revealed a past affair with married U.S. Senator Edward Brooke, whom she remembers as “exciting” and “bwilliant.”

In a further attempt to sell copies of her new memoir Audition, Walters also blubbered on about guilt pains she harbored over her mentally retarded sister.

Appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show scheduled to air Tuesday, Walters shares details of her relationship with Brooke that lasted several years in the 1970s, according to a transcript of the show provided to The Associated Press.

A moderate Republican from Massachusetts who took office in 1967, Brooke was the first African-American to be popularly elected to the Senate.

He was African-American and a Republican? How does that happen? Okay, now I understand why she offered the gossip to O instead of sharing the exclusive with her hobgoblins on The View.

At the time, Walters had already gone through two husbands and was still co-hosting NBC’s Today show. Walters admits that public knowledge of their affair could have ruined his career as well as hers.

Walters also talks openly (and tearfully) about her oyngaboodle sibling Jackie. Walters confesses that, as a child, she sometimes felt embarrassed by her older, mentally retarded sister. Now she knows how Star Jones felt.

“(Jackie) stuttered terribly. People made fun of her. People made fun of me,” Walters says. “I didn’t bring friends home. I felt terribly guilty because she was very loving and I didn’t always feel that way.”

Jackie Walters died in 1985 of ovarian cancer.When the AP uses the term “chokes up,” I take notice. Let’s hope that Babs will make an upcoming cameo in my crybaby reel.
