TMZ has learned that legendary singer Barry Manilow has pulled out of his scheduled appearance on "The View" tomorrow -- because he strongly disagrees with host Elisabeth Hasselbeck's conservative view! Paging Rosie O'Donnell!

In an exclusive statement to TMZ, Barry says, "I strongly disagree with her views. I think she's dangerous and offensive. I will not be on the same stage as her." Barry, taking a stand!

Manilow is currently on a press tour promoting the release of his new album, "Greatest Songs of the Seventies."

A call to a rep for "The View" was not immediately returned.

Millee, Millee, Millee....

Libs are such cowards.

Even Democrat Presidential nominees are afraid to go on Fox News.

Tell Barry to just shut-up & sing! :)

Elisabeth Hasselbeck, we are behind you even though Bahbwa & ABC keep you surrounded by 'Rats on your left, right and in the front!

Are ALL of Barry Manilow songs the same or is it just a sick joke foisted on the women who buy his albums?

[Sue Perkick]

That’s just wrong. LOL!

[geezerwheezer]

Manilow is a total schmuck! What a pantload of wuzziness he is. I’ll bet he “loves” Chuckie Schumer though, and Hildebeast too!

[Millee]

Guess after this new one, I'll have to stop buying his music.

Cat fight! My money is on Hasselback. The Queen is going down!, er poor choice of words.

"I strongly disagree with her views. I think she's dangerous and offensive. I will not be on the same stage as her."

You GO Barry!

Thilly Thavage.

Don’t feel bad, my old girlfried Sally Fields was spouting her liberal anti-war rant at the Emmy’s, cut off when she said “G-Damn war”.

[dfwgator]

Has Barry come out of the closet, yet?

I always thought he was skeert of babes, period.

I suppose this track on the new CD will explain why he won't go on: "Don't Go Breaking My Heart" (duet with Rosie O'Donnell).

[jdm]

Oh, but it’s not. It’s so very right, as a matter of fact. :)

[skeeter]

Has Barry come out of the closet, yet?

He said it himself - she came and she gave without taking, but HE sent her away.

[romanesq]

No, Barry is officially still looking for the right girl. There’s just no construction site that’s come through yet.

[dfwgator]

You mean Barry didn’t find the right girl, while he was playing bathhouses in Bette Midler’s band?

[Sue Perkick]

LOL!
