Not interested. She lost me when she blasted Tom Selleck, and has only gotten worse sense. No respect for her at all.

I saw her in Fiddler and she was very good. I wish her luck. Her Taboo deal didn’t work out very well.

Loudmouth lesbian. She uses her sexuality to empower her. Nothing she says is of any substance.

Absolutely cannot stand her. She is the armpit of the “entertainment” world. Her poor, poor children.

Never you mind, Ro. Give it your best.

Is she still alive? Hell I thought she choked on a triple whooper.

@Auntie ann:

Yes, I didn’t like the Tom Selleck gun issue she had with him either..but she apologized to him and he accepted the apology so I will still like her somewhat..but she has said herself that sometimes she speaks berfore she thinks..and we should all be forgiving because she does good things from time to time…

I sincerely hope that it works out of her. She deserves to live her original dream.

Good luck to you Rosie !!! And don’t listen to all the nasty hater’s, who seem not to have a life of their own. After reading your blog and your own question and answer column forever, you obviously handle these people well. So these responses, should be nothing.
Thank you for all of your hard work for the ‘ BROADWAY KIDS, ” and other chartiable causes for children. You are super !!

I used to really like Rosie, but she got weird and then turned tail, ran and hid after her Thanksgiving special bombed. What’s she gonna do if this one tanks?

Rosie is a survivor. glad to see she’s in treatment and in recovery. She’ll never be out of work. At least she is out and doing things for the community. Ellen doesn’t talk about her life because she is afraid of losing her career. We’ve seen many baby boomers now coming out of the closet the beautiful babe Jodie Foster and I believe it is thanks to these women who are tired of hiding in the closet that has been role models for other women to come out and not be afraid of who they love.
