Clueless Roseanne Keeps Tweeting: Considering Fighting Back, Says “my nervous system/family/wealth will NEVER b taken from me”

0

Roseanne, the Alexander Haig of TV, is clueless and losing it on Twitter. This is what she’s done this afternoon. And it’s still early in LA or Hawaii.

She’s getting defensive, too. She declares: “my nervous system/family/wealth will NEVER b taken from me”

Got that?

Exclusive: Roseanne’s One Scheduled Show, in Maryland This October, Has Been Cancelled

0

I told you recently that the MGM National Harbor in Maryland couldn’t sell tickets to see Roseanne Barr. Their original May date was rescheduled for October just to see if her new season could scare up buyers.

Now the show has been cancelled altogether.

Yesterday afternoon when I called the show was still on. But given the developments late in the day, it’s all over.

On top of that, Roseanne’s agents, ICM Partners, have dropped her.

I guess she could go back to Canada, where she played a few dates this spring. Ambien is cheaper up there, anyway.

 

Watch Roseanne Sing “My Way” and ABC Chief Ben Sherwood Joke About Her Tweets at Network Presentation

0

Not many people have seen this video of Roseanne Barr getting the star treatment at the recent ABC upfronts. Network chief Ben Sherwood lets her joke that he writes all her Tweets. She sings “My Way.” The whole presentation is tied to the success of “Roseanne.” Yesterday must have been brutal in the Disney ABC corporate suites. Not only did they lose “Roseanne” but “The Middle” wrapped its nine season run. Their scheduling problems today are outsized.

Donald Trump Thinks “Roseanne” Scandal Is All About Him, Roseanne Attacks Her Own Castmates, Ambien Maker Has Witty Response

0

Just to catch us up.

Donald Trump thinks the Roseanne scandal is all about him. He wonders why Disney head Bob Iger hasn’t called to apologize about comments made about Trump. Trump actually is the product of Planet of the Apes and Lost in Space, with some input from the smoke monster in “Lost.”

 

Then there’s Roseanne herself. Clueless abut her situation and not taking any responsibility for her actions, she’s attacking her castmates.

 Michael Fishman, who plays DJ (Dan Jr) on the show, had previously Tweeted:

Barr responded: “i created the platform for that inclusivity and you know http://it.ME . You throw me under the bus. nice!”

Finally, Ambien wins the award today for wittiest response to Barr’s assertion that their drug made her say all these awful things.

“Roseanne” Can’t Come Back– Without Roseanne or On Fox–for a Variety of Reasons

0

There are some wild clickbait stories popping up today about the return of “Roseanne.”

One would be to kill off the Roseanne character and have the family continue without her.

The other is to move the whole thing to Fox, like Tim Allen’s show, where racist comments are a given.

The answer on both counts is “NO.” Won’t happen.

First of all, “Roseanne” with a dead Roseanne would face endless Twitter and social media attacks from Barr. She can’t shut up, she won’t go away, she’s crazy as she can be. She’d be hounding the cast and crew and the viewers all day long.

Second, Laurie Metcalf and John Goodman are gone. They haven’t said a word about Barr’s scandal. Metcalf is up for a Tony Award, and it’s hers to lose if she says the wrong thing now. Goodman has a thriving movie career and good will at places like “SNL.” He is not going to jeopardize any of that by continuing with this mess. It’s best for each of them to get away from “Roseanne” fast, clean break, over.

Sara Gilbert must be dashed. The “Roseanne” revival was her idea, and it was great money. Even she knows that the party is over. And she has a day job – “The Talk” on CBS– that could adversely affected.

So “Roseanne” is over. There’s no going back.

Exclusive Why Melania Trump Has Been MIA: Source Says She’s Taking Care of Ailing Mother at Trump Bedminster Golf Club

0

EXCLUSIVE Everyone is wondering where Melania Trump is. She’s 20 days MIA after having surgery to remove a benign tumor in her kidney.

So where is she?

A pretty well informed source has offered me this theory. “She’s taking care of her mother.” That’s Amalija Knavs, who turns 73 in July and is — I can tell you this exclusively– battling a pretty serious illness.

“They’re all at Bedminster,” the source says. “Melania, her parents, Barron when he’s not in school. She’s (Melania) not in the White House.”

Apparently, the Knavs (or is it Knauss) have a house on the Bedminster property, right next door to Jared and Ivanka. It’s like the Brady Bunch!

In a way this will disappoint people who were rooting for Melania to escape the clutches of her husband since there have been revelations about his cheating with porn stars and Playboy bunnies.

But it’s really more of a sign of devotion to her parents. The Knavs were last seen in public on May 2nd, when they received their permanent American citizenship thanks to chain immigration. Because Melania became a citizen, so thusly did her parents. It’s the American way unless Donald Trump doesn’t like your skin color or religion.

That’s a tough time for Melania, though, dealing with her own illness and taking care of her mother. Good luck to her!

Christie Brinkley Celebrates Newly Engaged Cover Girl Daughter Alexa Ray Joel — And Becomes Downtown Girl!

0

One of the best mother-daughter duos in the world took over La Pulperia restaurant last night on East 57th St.

Christie Brinkley and daughter Alexa Ray Joel literally turned the place over and then some. The occasion was Alexa Ray’s beautiful new cover of Bella Magazine. I’ve never seen so many flash “bulbs” at one time for just two people. It was like the old days of Hollywood glamour!

Alexa is the oldest daughter of famed rock star Billy Joel, but as we know she has the musical chops as well. She’s performed several times at Cafe Carlyle, has sung and recorded with Dad, and has fended off many requests to make an album.

You know, the hardest thing for any talented kid with a famous parent is to carve out their own identity in the same field.

As I’ve said to Alexa many times, “You should write a Broadway musical.” She could do it. Easily. She responded: “I want to star in a Broadway musical!” She could do that, too. Right now she’s planning her wedding. Alexa is happily engaged to Ryan Gleason, owner of hot spots on the Lower East Side. He’s a nice guy. And a lucky one.

And Christie? Alexa also has her mom’s genes, which is a good thing since Ms. Brinkley is 60something and looks 40. Christie told me she’s finally a Downtown Girl (she was Billy’s Uptown Girl), having moved in below Houston Street to a duplex “or a triplex” depending on how you look at it. “I have amazing views,” she said. So do we.

Add into this mix jewelry designer and rock star wife and mama Ann Dexter Jones, who stopped by to support Alexa and her mom. Ann– married, divorced and remarried to Mick Jones of Foreigner– is another NYC dynamo. All of her kids are big successes including rock producer Mark Ronson, designer Samantha Ronson, DJ Charlotte Ronson.

And no one talked about Roseanne, Harvey, Morgan, Trump, Cohen, et al for at least two blissful hours! Also on the scene last night: Claire Mercuri, singer Genesis Jones, lifestyle expert Valerie Greenberg, and peripatetic gossipeuse Rob Shuter. And everyone got fancy hairbrushes from Angelo David salon.

 

Roseanne Claims Ambien Made Her Do It, But What About Five Years Ago When She Made Same Racist Tweet?

0

Just as we were hitting the sack last night on the East Coast, Roseanne began Tweeting that Ambien made her write the racist rant against Valerie Jarrett.

But in 2013, Roseanne wrote a similar racist rant against another Obama aide, Susan Rice. Was that because of Ambien?

Here’s that Tweet:

 

Roseanne is a racist. She’s also a conspiracy theorist who re-Tweets nonsense from other crazy people on the internet. These re-Tweets are anti-Semitic, which is interesting since she claims to be Jewish. But she continually sends out messages about philanthropist George Soros, claiming he’s a Nazi and hurt other Jews in a concentration camp. Roseanne can’t do any math apparently, since Soros was 13 when he and his family fled the Nazis.

She is completely vile. Not a single word of apology on Twitter will help her.

Roseanne Barr Never Left Twitter At All. She’s Back, Saying She Thought Valerie Jarrett was “Saudi” Not Black

0

It’s all a big joke to Roseanne Barr. Today her career ended, and she destroyed the incomes of a lot of people. She vowed to leave Twitter but guess what? She never did. Her account is still active and she’s still Tweeting.

She added: “Don’t feel sorry for me, guys!!-I just want to apologize to the hundreds of people,and wonderful writers (all liberal) and talented actors who lost their jobs on my show due to my stupid tweet. I will be on Joe Rogan’s podcast friday.”

This miserable creature can’t stop herself. She has no idea how much damage she’s done to anyone, let alone herself. Her agents have dropped her. ABC will wind up suing her. She’s finished on TV. HBO isn’t going to welcome her back. Netflix and Amazon, Hulu: very unlikely. She could do pay per view. But who would pay?

Roseanne, can no one shut you up? I’ll bet your kids, seeing their inheritance slip away, are trying their hardest.

EXCLUSIVE ABC Will Yank Tonight’s “Roseanne” Rerun, Replace it with Episode of “The Middle”

0

There will no more reruns of the “Roseanne” reboot.

I’m told that tonight’s rerun, with Johnny Galecki, has been yanked. It will be replaced by an episode of  “The Middle.” It will just happen without explanation.

The rest of the “Roseanne” rebooted episodes will be relegated to history. They’re not coming back to ABC.

See my syndication story. If you don’t have them on tape, “Roseanne” may vanish like the lost city of Atlantis.

What a stunning turn of events, all in less than a day. How sad for the kids in the cast of “Roseanne,” all of whom deserved better than this.

Otherwise all mention of “Roseanne” has been scrubbed from the ABC website.
