It's nice to see that even despite what we consider to be very justifiable backlash following his visit, the Anne Frank House is standing in support of Justin Bieber.

As we reported, the troubled pop sensation managed to cause some pretty serious controversy over the weekend during his trip to the Amsterdam home in which the courageous Jewish teenager hid from Nazis and wrote her now-famous diary, when he wrote in the guest book:

"Truly inspiring to be able to come here. Anne was a great girl. Hopefully she would have been a belieber."

However, despite having the gall to make what have should have been a solemn, sobering and reflective visit about himself, representatives from the house stated this morning on their Facebook page:

We guess impressing the other comics was more important to him than showing some tact for a lot of hurt, suffering people in America right now!

Although Comedy Central's Roast of Roseanne apparently brought some touching and genuinely HIGHlarious moments for the comedienne, there was also a GLARING negative from Jeffrey Ross, who will be censored during the network's airing for cracking a tasteless joke directed at Seth Green, to whom he compared Colorado shooter James Holmes!

In "jest', Jeff said:

And we don't blame her at all! This is NOT cool!

Zsa Zsa Gabor's husband Frederic Prinz Von Anhalt used very poor judgment when he decided to release a tasteless photo of himself with his wife, who was recently in a coma.

He's tried to insist that he released the photo to reassure fans, but given the fact that Gabor was propped up in her bed and a glass of fancy champagne was placed in her hand, it's clear that the photo was staged, which is not sitting well with Zsa Zsa's daughter.

Here's what daughter Francesca Hilton had to say about it:

"He releases photos of my mother in unflattering situations without hair and make-up, two things that were so important to her."

"He is feeding her alcohol, which could be detrimental to her condition since she is on numerous medications. It's disgusting, and no one is doing anything about it."

We agree with Francesca. This photo was in VERY poor taste and it should never have been released.

What do U think? Do U agree that the photo shouldn't have been released?

After being fired from Aflac for his tasteless jokes about Japan, Gilbert Gottfried made an apology via Twitter yesterday, which we thought was weak and too-little-too-late.

Not EVERYONE is against Gilbert though. In a clip from The View (above), Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar defend the comedian, claiming he's "always inappropriate," and that "comics have never been appropriate."

Joan Rivers also came to Gilbert's side, and defended him with the following tweet:

“Oh come on people-this is just outrageous! Gilbert Gottfried was FIRED from Aflac for making jokes about the tsunami in Japan. That’s what comedians do!!! We react to tragedy by making jokes to help people in tough times feel better through laughter.”

Looks like Joan's not 100% on his side though, because she tweeted the following later on:

“Heard Aflac has 75% of it’s business in Japan. I stand by what I said but Gilbert-as a spokesperson-you should know who you represent!”

We understand the argument that comics are "inappropriate" and "that's what comedians do," but there's a time and a place for everything.

Publicly making tasteless, inappropriate, and insensitive comments about people who are currently in the midst of a tragedy is wrong, whether it's a comic making the jokes or a lawyer, or whoever.

Do U think Gilbert was wrong? Or do you agree with Whoopi, Joy, and Joan's defense of the comedian?

Wow, Gilbert. If the goal here was to remind us that you exist, then congratulations! Mission accomplished.

Comedian Gilbert Gottfried has taken to twitter to post SEVERAL tasteless jokes about Japan.

Here are a few of his inappropriate "joke" tweets:

Japan is really advanced. They don't go to the beach. The beach comes to them.

What does every Japanese person have in their apartment? Flood lights.

I was talking to my Japanese real estate agent. I said "is there a school in this area." She said "not now, but just wait."

My Japanese doctor advised me to stay healthy I need 50 million gallons of water a day.

We understand that everyone has their own way of dealing with tragedy, but these are truly tasteless.

Don't worry, Gilbert. We may not have appreciated this material, but you could always try these jokes out on UCLA girl and "Overjoyed" girl. Maybe they'd have positive things to say about them…

Do U find Gilbert Gottfried's jokes funny? Or do U think they're tasteless and inappropriate?

American Apparel has released a new stripper-wear swimwear ad full of T&A, not that that's anything new.

Because the ad has been deemed "too racy" for the US (shocking), this nipply ad will only be running in Europe.

Call us crazy, but if we were in the market for a new bathing suit we'd want on that WOULDN'T expose our naughty bits.

Silly, silly Emma Roberts!

We can't WAIT for your first nude scene (and lord knows it's coming) so we can remind you of this little gem you recently spouted out!

The actress has decided that exposing your tittays on film isn't very clASSy, and said:

"I would show my back and my butt on camera, but I would never go topless. Going topless is so tasteless, and I prefer to leave all that stuff to people's imagination. But you never know what might happen. This is what I'm saying now, but in five years' time it could be totally different."

We love how she pretty much says that she's going to be shoving her foot in her mouth in like five years, but still! Where does this bizarre train of thought come from??!

Running around with your ass hanging out is cool, but being topless isn't??

What effing world do YOU live in, girlfriend??

What do U think?? How many years until Emma Roberts shows her boobs on screen??
