I dont' really have an opion on Rosie, I like her movies, but I never really watched her show. And on the whole her being a lesbian thing, the only place i saw it was in a tabloid. Plus, when Ellen came out there was a big deal made, on actualy reliable sources....so I think if Rosie came out public, you would probably hear about it on ET or something....

Who is Caroline Rhea ?

While this really shouldn't be an issue, I just want to set the record straight. She is indeed coming out of the closet in her upcoming autobiography. I think it's called "Find Me." Diane Sawyer has been granted the first interview on the subject.

Personally, I don't think it makes any difference, folks. Say it's "nastay" all you want, but it's the way she was born.

An aside, I'll be glad to see her leave her show. I was a fan of her stand-up comedy and I hope she'll start doing it again.

Rosie Attacks "Gay Nazis"

Talk show queen Rosie O'Donnell lashed out at New York's gay press on Monday night - because they made it hard for her to 'come out'. The comic was performing at a benefit for ovarian cancer research in New York when she decided to air her feelings about people she referred to as "the gay Nazis" - following her recent decision to make her homosexuality public. She said, "They're saying I'm not gay enough. They say I lied because I said I love Tom Cruise. I do love Tom Cruise. What do I have to do, have sex with Angelina Jolie on TV?" O'Donnell confessed and joked about her sexuality during her short routine, and explained she'll be revealing more in her forthcoming memoirs Find Me. O'Donnell also revealed her heartache over the adopted child she had to give up because Florida state laws prohibit homosexuals and bisexuals from adopting. An onlooker says, "She was tearful as she told the audience about her attempts to adopt a child in Florida - when it came time to fill out the forms Rosie felt uncomfortable answering the question, 'Are you a bisexual or a homosexual?' and ended up having to give up the child."

Thanks for the info! I was just wondering about that - no, I don't have any problems with her being gay, I would just like to know if it's true or not.

I certainly won't miss her. When it looked like Mayor Rudy Giuliani was going to run for the Senate, Rosie used her show as a propaganda vehicle for her gal pal Hillary, and in typical liberal fashion, lauched a smear campaign against Mayor Giuliani.

She said he "was out of control", "he was acting like a dictator", and "he has to be stopped".

In the aftermath of the Sept. 11th attacks, when America was facing one of its darkest moments, we found out differently. Contrary to Rosie's baseless and vicious remarks, everyone saw just what a man of courage and inspiration Rudy Giuliani really is.

Liza · 02-28-2002, 11:16 PM

Wow! Did she really? I stopped watching her show last year, so fortunately I missed that. That's interesting, but I must admit, it certainly does sound like her.

Another thing that bugs me about her is how she seems to show off how ignorant she is. She has a guest like Cate Blanchett on, and she didn't even know what country she's from! Understandably, not everyone knows that actress, but come on, how are you going to interview someone if you know nothing about them?

*shrugs* that was just bugging me.

I personally don't care for Rosie. I find her annoying, obnoxious, and just not funny. And about her being a lesbian, I have the same concern about a celebrity's sexual orientation that I do for the sexual orientation of any stranger I meet on the street: I don't care! I have nothing against gay people. I know some people who are gay and they're very nice people. I think gay people deserve the same rights and respect as straight people. I just don't like it when people feel the need to talk about their sexual orientation to complete strangers. Unless it's a family member or close friend, I don't think a person's sexual orientation is any of my business.

I really don't like Rosie... I did, but then she gott... annoying. Caroline Rhea is kinda cool... I dunno maybe I'll watch it when she comes on.
As for the whole lesbian thing- do I give a flying $h!t? Rosie can go make out w/ a woman as far as I care... well... actually... any woman but Delta Burke.
