Rosie's Latest Target Is 'Intoxicated' Abdul - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Jan. 19 — Rosie O'Donnell is one of the 37 million TV viewers watching "American Idol," but don't count her among those who liked what they saw.

For the second day in a row, "The View" co-host suggested Paula Abdul was drinking during the show and lashed out at the show for making fun of the people auditioning.

O'Donnell and her co-hosts played a clip from Wednesday night's "Idol," in which a contestant, following an off-key audition, was roundly mocked and rejected by the judges.

"That's compassion for you," O'Donnell said. "Isn't that what America thinks is entertainment, to make fun of someone's physical appearance? And then, when they leave the room, laugh hysterically at them -- three millionaires, one probably intoxicated."

O'Donnell had joked about Abdul's demeanor a day earlier. "Paula was very thirsty last night," she said.

"That girl was sipping Coke every shot. And toward the end of the evening, one eye was wandering."

has she never watched American Idol before? That's what the entire first two hour special episode is about. Geez.

I can't stand her.

It's actually pretty much like that the first 3 weeks. I don't know what her problem is. People have to know this going into these auditions, it's only been happening for 6 years now.

WTF? Whatev, I cant stand Rosie anyways.

Rosie needs to shut her mouth!!!!

I don't watch Idol, and have never seen it voluntarily. But in that interview she did one morning a few weeks ago with KCPQ in Seattle, there was definitely something wrong with her. She'd either had a mild stroke, or more realistically, she was tanked on something.

i think some people go into the auditions and try to do the WORSE possible performance they can, just to get on TV. They'd HAVE to... it amazes me that some of those people actually call themselves "talented"

This is news? People have been saying this for days. She probably has a drinking problem.

EmoJoe · 01-20-2007, 03:17 PM

shes such an idiot

people have known the AI auditions are to humiliate people for 5 years now.

Dutabi84 · 01-20-2007, 03:41 PM

Who cares? Dozens of entertainers are making fun of Abdul. Letterman did last night, why aren't any journalists writing stories about that?

How ironic that Rosie is criticizing the harshness of the judging, yet! she is talking abt Paula Abdul and a supposed intoxication problem that Rosie knows nothing abt.
