In case you needed any more proof of that Barbara Walters is now the TV embodiment of senility, watch as esteemed hostess emeritus of The View shames the Twilight star about his... um, admission to Details Magazine.

Until Ryan Seacrest called in sick for last night's SAG Awards, we'd always just kinda assumed that E! had procured him in from the hallowed halls of the Cyberdnye Systems Corporation. Turns out that maybe, just maybe, he is human after all. We just got a call from E! letting us know that Ry Guy had (gasp!) "the flu" last night. But, as with any ongoing investigation, there's always more. Moments ago, a source at Details Magazine told us that Seacrest managed to show up at Pier 59 in Los Angeles on-time and ready to shoot their April cover. Says our source:

How in the name of all that is magabranding and holy can Details put Kevin Federline on its cover FOR THE SECOND TIME? (The first was all the way back in March, 2005: "the second-worst selling issue of the year," says WWD.) Do not understand! [Memo Pad]
