Elisabeth Hasselbeck, Erin Andrews Dancing With The Stars Apology
Today on The View, Elisabeth Hasselbeck started crying as she apologized for the remarks she made criticizing Erin Andrews on her “skimpy” Dancing With The Stars outfit.
Watch the video of Elisabeth apologizing:
Here’s the transcript of the apology:
Speaking of Erin Andrews, who we just saw—you know, we talked about Dancing with the Stars yesterday, and I went home, wasn’t feeling that great about it. And I’m sitting there with Grace, my five-year-old, and she said, ‘Mommy, why do you look so sad?’
And I said, ‘Well, Grace, today… mommy hurt someone’s feelings, and…’ Gosh! And it’s harder when you’re explaining it to your kid. It was a moment that I thought I should explain to her, so I… yesterday, when we were talking about Erin, even though I was focused on the detestable criminal who’s behind bars, thankfully, who’s really made her life a living hell and, um, is in jail, I ended up hurting her. And, so I told Grace, I said, ‘Grace, Mommy feels really bad because I hurt somebody.’ So I took out her little devotional that we read, and I read her, ‘You know, Mommy always reads you reckless words pierce someone’s heart like a sword.’ And I told her and I promised her that I would use my words more mindfully, like I try to do, to build people up, not break them down.
And thankfully, she’s five and so cute, and she said to me, ‘Mommy, why don’t you just call Erin and tell her you’re sorry?’ So, thankfully, I listened to her, she’s a wise little girl, and I did. So, I’m really sorry and I wanted to offer that publicly, too, even though I did file that advice.
Here’s what Elisabeth Hasselbeck said originally to Erin Andrews:
I think in light of what happened … and as inexcusable as it was for that horrific guy to go in and try to peep on her in her hotel room … in some way, if I’m him, I’m like, ‘man, I could have just waited 12 weeks (nervous laughter from crowd)’ … I could have seen this, a little bit less, without the prison time

I don't believe the contestants choose their own costumes. Grow up Elizabeth, it is an entertainment show.
Where is your mind?
Elizabeth for someone who is so religious, you sure are quick to speak in judgement of others. Also I noticed watching the view every time you are pregnant you have absolutely no problem wearing short dresses. There maybe people out ther that don't feel thats appropriate but you still do it. Maybe you should mind your own business.
Actually,
I beleive the dancers do have a say in their outfits.. Mainly the instructors…
Guearenteed IF Erin was uncomfortable with her costume..The Producers would NOT insist she wear it..
….What Elizabeth was experssing was her “view”
point and Im thinking this is America…
So why is it when a conservative speeks their mind..ALL the media has to jump on it…
Once again..This is AMERICA….SHe did sincerely make ammends with Erin..AND ITS OVER..
Elizabeth is a b**ch…plain and simple…stupid, self-serving too.
ndrews told Access Hollywood she "cried" after hearing the remarks. "I think people can have opinions about the show, but my biggest complaint is she's a woman and a mother and it was a mockery of something I've lived through this last year. … I felt like it was a slap in the face for victims of stalkers and victims of s*xual predators." .

This is not about a person having their point of view. She IS a mother and a woman and to suggest that what a woman wears contributes to whether or not a s*xual predator singles them out is contrary to what we know statistically and purely insensitive.
