Nobody Cares About Rosie…or Lance!
Rosie O'Donnell's much buzzed about new memoir, Celebrity Detox, was a big bomb, unfortunately, the new issue of Entertainment Weekly is reporting.
The book sold just 55,000 copies according to Bookscan.
Compared to other celeb books in 2007: Eric Clapton (375,000 sold), Steve Martin (198,000), Slash (70,000), Rosie came in LAST.
Slash from Guns 'n' Roses sold more than Ro! Ouch.
Only ONE BOOK did worse!
Lance Bass's autobiography sold a pathetic 13,000 copies.
Double ouch!

At Least She Tried
yeah thats caption is wayyyyy right, first? like it matters
first
People like writting about their lifes even if they dont have one or nothing really interesting to tell about.
poor rosie how will she survive?? oh yeah, how about w/ the jillion $$$ she already has in the bank. adopt me ….please!!!
first!
Yessssssss I can say first. Rosie is a washed up DYKE I can say that I'm gay myself. Anyway go do commercials for home depot. Straight and Gay America cant stand your ass BITCHHHHHHH
Well duh nobody bought Lance's book. He was a fraud and all the old fans he had were all horny teenage girls with hormones raging. They feel betrayed and lied to so who is left to buy his book?
How could Rosie's book be last and then you go on to say that only one other book did worse?
haha lance bass is a loser!
What ever happened to the cool Rosie? Like from Harriet the Spy?
rosise is so annoying. i liked her better when she wasnt gay.
awww..poor rosie…NOT! It's her fault for not doing publicity for it.
nOBODY WANTS TO READ ABOUT QUEERS. eSPECIALLY rOSIE WITH HER STRAP-ON COCKS.
Wow, both gay people came in dead last…. what does that tell you Perez? oh wait, you already said it in the title of this blurb…
Mario, You said that Ro's book was "LAST" among celebrity books released in 2007. Then right afterwards you wrote that Lance Bass' book sold less than Ro's. Why are you so stupid and fat? I've never criticized you directly before, but that's just too fucking blatant. You're a real dumbass.
Ouch! Much talked about memoir, I didn't hear anything about it until now. Although, I'm not really a Rosie follower (apparently neither is much of the rest of the population) She's kind of obnoxious. As for Lance, sorry but there's no other way to say this but didn't anyone really ever like him? Lets be honest N*Sync was all about J.T.
Good!!
Re: bRUCE – You just read a post about queers, on a site run by a queer. You liked the post so much that you took the time to comment on it. Apparently you like to read about queers dumbass loser.
um. rosies book did not sell so much bc she did not promote it hard and let it speak for itself. money is so 1998 guys.
she did not do an ounce of publicity for the book, so considering, it faired pretty well.
hmmm….
ROSIE - HO
is a fat fucking disgusting freaking lesbo who has no manners and treats everyone like shit.
When her "so call kids" are adult they will do a tell all book that will expose her for what she is…a piece of fucking shit
first !!!
ok perez, so maybe you americans do not appreciate her, but I really do think that she is sending out a really important message. I dont think that you guys realize what the goverment is doing to your country and the economy. You guys are making millions of dollars for these gossip websites and celebrities are worshiped like gods, but do you ever stop to consider the people? her book may not have been a top seller, but she is sticking to her guns and expressing the thoughts of many who are to afraid to speak up for themselves. So she may be "annoying" but she is an inspiration
The reason her book sold so few is because she has a book swap that her bloggers participate in where she allows people who have purchased the book to send it to people who cannot afford to buy it.
This is SO gratifying on SO many levels! First of all, these celebrities get paid way too much advance money by publishers who think, despite the schlock they write (even with a ghost writer), that these books will be major cash cows for their publishing houses. Then, the books are highly publicized, again, because of the celebrity connections and media interest. The real writers out there who work for their craft and rarely get paid anything in advance or later on from royalties and who write far superior books are smirking right now, believe me.
hahahaha…. wait…. HAHAHA
who gives two shits to buy a copy of her book?? she should be grateful for 55,000 copies!
maybe celebs need to get through their heads, we don't care enough to read a book about them.
Apparently around 55,000 people cared about Rosie and about 13,000 cared about Lance Bass. What those people don't really exist?
Blah- You'd have to pay me to read her nonsense.
One of the funniest biographies is Chelsae Handler's. Seriously, LOL funny about her one night stands.
I am first.
PEREZ WHY NO POSTS ABOUT PUERTO RICANS EVER ON YOUR SITE!!! PLEASE DO QUEEN IVY SHE IS A GAY DIVA AND I AM SURE LOTS OF GAYS AND OTHERS WANT TO SEE HER PICTURE!!! SHE LOOKS A LITTLE LIKE A MONKEY, BUT SO WHAT??? LIVE AND LET LIVE RIGHT?? VIVA QUEEN IVY!!!!
Rosie needs to GO AWAY FOREVER! She should shut her big fat greasy trap and raise her kids with her "partner". Why anyone would get married to this pig is beyond me!
I love Rosie. She could have sold more copies of her book if she'd of gone on Oprah and maybe she will later on. It was all too raw for her to promote it that way and be asked a lot of personal questions. The books says it all. I recommend the book to anyone because it is honest and a very good read. Really Perez you oughta read it and help promote it. All the proceeds go to Rosie's Broadway Kids charity. Go Ro, I love you girl!
Obviously Slash would sell more! He's a rock legend… Rosie is just a bitchy has-been
If I wrote a book, I doubt 55 thousand would buy it–so I still think it's awesome.
Re: psychology – Quit being a hater and homophobe! YOU and your kind need to go away!
Slash's book is actually quite good………not as good as the Dirt~~Motley Crue,But Rosie!!!!!! who the hell would bother buying it????? lol
HEY#18, SHOULDN'T YOU BE EATING SOME ANONYMOUS STRANGER'S FECES CRUSTED BLOODY ASS HOLE BY NOW IN THE MENSROOM. OH WAIT, I GUESS YOU ALREADY ATE YOUR SHIT FOR BREAKFAST BY NOW. YOU hiv TESTTUBE.
I love Rosie O'Donnell and her book was so good. I recommend you read FIND ME first, and then CELEBRITY DETOX. Both excellent reading and monies go to charity!
gross fat dykes hate men but they always have to strap on the rubber cock to close the deal. Nothing like a warm-bloodied, real penis thrusting deep into a vagina right girls!
This will be Rosie on her Blog on Monday; Ooooink oink oink oink oink! Ooooink oink oink oink oink!
And all profits from the copies sold went to charity. She sold this many without going to ONE Talkshow to boost it. How many copies of Donald Trump's lastest book sell?? Put that in print.
EVEN I AS A GAY GUY WHO LOVES ME MY RO RO AND MY HOT LITTLE BASS ASS…THOUGHT BOTH BOOKS WERE A SNOOZE. GOT THEM FROM THE LIBRARY. NOT BUYING BOOKS…NO SIREE! I WANT TO KNEAD LANCE'S FIRMS SEXY THIGHS…TEE HEE
Re: dESIGNERS – YOU SOUND LIKE YOU KNOW TOO MUCH ABOUT THIS. YOU ARE AMERICAN PIG AND SHOULD FLUSH IN TOILET, YES?
Not surprised ye olde dyke didnt sell much - I mean she's not exactly the best example of a detox is she? Fat, greasy hair…….. sheesh. She should have a go at writing "how to gain a few pounds eating muffin".
;o)
what's wrong with slash? you don't like him because he's not a cocksucker like you? you don't like him because he's a guitar hero and you like crappy tween music? you're a disgrace to humanity, piece of shit
rosie believes her own hype. she'll be totally insane in a couple years.
Re: Sunni –
oh sunnny, does that mean you go to rosie's blog? do us and yourself a favor and stay away
Pfffft, now wonder Slash sold more books; it was a great read. Slash also has more talent…! Jeeeez.
Rosie is the most annoying bitch on the planet
Rosie is the most annoying bitch on the planet!
Nobody wants to read about someone who COULD HAVE COME OUT sooner than they did. Both rosie and lance could have come out when they were popular but THEY DID NOT. So nobody cares. They are both losers who happen to be famous.
Nobody likes you
na na na na naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
NO BO DY LIKES YOUUUUUUUU !!!!!!!!!!
Get a job at Wal-Mart and leave us alone
Sounds suspect - when did her book come out? Were all of the other celebrity books out for the same amount of time? Seems like hers came out later in the year, so it would obviously sell fewer copies.
Lance Bass has an autobiography out? What the fuck does he have to write about? It's not like he's that old. Who's next? Perez Hilton?
I won't get any of those. I want The Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein. She's cool. She rocks my socks!!!!!
ST. LOUIS LOVES PEREZ!!!!!
Why did you say it was "Unfortunate" that her book bombed. Who really cares?
Curious how the book’s sales have held up, I called Ingram, the largest wholesaler for independent book stores (and one of the only vendors that makes its sales data available to the public). They report that 33,247 copies of “Celebrity Detox” have sold. Generally, you can multiply that number by six in order to get a rough estimate of overall U.S. sales—so I’m figuring O’Donnell has moved just shy of 200,000 books. Not bad. Still, hardly enough to justify the hefty advance I’m sure Grand Central Publishing forked over.
Rosie's book bombed because she backed out of promoting it. Oprah wanted to interview her & she was supposed to do one of the morning programs. I think she wanted to nix the book altogether but couldn't because she signed the contract. Plus the book was not good. Still love her candidness though.
READ IT. IT'S SERIOUSLY AMAZING. Rosie's book, that is.
If Rosie is some uber-lesbian, why is she ALWAYS making that "come stick a cock in my mouth" face?
I care about Rosie. She's a great enterntainer and and even better Mom and Wife. Kudos to her and Kel. Perez, you need to support her.
Some people need to know when to shut up. We are no longer interested.
i really think rosie should just go away. for all of us.
If you really want to see Rosie lose it
Just mention Bill O'Rielly's book Coulture Warrior, which has sold close to 500,000 copies
I love Rosie! She's probably one of the most interesting, honest, generous, artist, and funny celebs out there, and I'm one of her biggest fans, but ironically, I wont buy the book - who buts new books? I'll wait and get it second hand or borrow it from the library.
Also, she doesn't seem like the competitive ass-kissing type. You have to kiss a lot of ass and do a lot of shameless plugs to get that "top selling" book and that just isn't her style. Like a true artist, she probably was more concerned about writing the book than selling it.
its bc the majority of americans hate her just as much they hate you perez. only you could praise the things this crazy, fat bitch says.
Then why was her book on the New York Times Bestseller list in December?
Bet Donald Trup is pissing on himself laughing
WTF tell me that not a diet book. She looks as chunky as ever.
I wouldn't read it if you paid me.
I wouldn't read it if you paid me.
I'm a big fan of Rosie, but the book was terrible. A bunch of random thoughts, and blogs. Unreadable.
Rosie gives me explosive diarrhea.
SHUT THE FUCK UP ROSIE!!!! NO ONE CARES WHAT YOU HAVE TO SAY YOU BIG MOUTH BITCH!!
SHE SHOULD HAVE WENT ON OPRAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I bought both Rosie's book and Lance's book and liked them both. I can't imagine finding interest in a book by Slash, but to each his own.
The most untalented person in hollywood wrote her memoirs?
Of course it came in last. Hopefully all the unsold copies can be recycled
for toilet paper.
See Rosie NOBODY CARES WHAT YOU THINK . Please SILENCE YOURSELF.
If nobody really cared about Lance Bass he would not have 135842 fans on his myspace website. For Rosie I was unable to find her myspace page, but I found a fan site that connects you to her official page and that had 5872 friends on it, and then I took the liberty to search your myspace website Perez and you know what I discovered? I sure you do. A messily 41 Friends, and to be honest I surprised. I could not imagine anyone wanting to be your friend. Considering you lie through your teeth, stab people in the back and front, and would hurt someone you care about, and treat so many people like garabage or worst.
Get your facts right.
Rosie's book sold over 500,000. Not 50, dipshit.
Rosie's book was great. REAL, true, honest.
Something you know nothing about.
That's because no one wants to read books by carpet-munchers and butt-pirates.
Karla, get your head out of her cunt, and get the facts straight
Rosie said on her bolg, she sold 50,000, which she thought was OK
since she compared it to filling Madison Square Garden 10 times
Your a good example of a Dumb Dyke
I read it. It has an interesting premise that other celebs are thinking and writing about (Melissa Etheridge). I thouht the book was terribly ok.
Re: Karla – I told you Karla Perez lies through his teeth not just about that, but almost everything he posts here. I don't know why people even take anything he writes seriously. He's a iggnorant, foolish, individual. He was the one rumored to have outted Lance and that was for his own means. I would put money down and say that Lance is really not gay and Perez just outted him because he has a major crush on him. Lance would not touch Perez(MARIO) to scratch him.
Ok first of all, lances book went on the best sellers list. He also has a hot boyfriend, was a hit on broadway and was in a hot boyband who sold millions of dollars on all their cds and um, excuse what do you have, this blog and reality tv and we all know that reality stars are stupid. You are a terrible rapper by the way and the pink hair and all that other cheesy stuff has got to go my friend. I think your just jealous
Hey Britta
You're the fucking idiot… here's a little grade three lesson — the short form of "you are" is not YOUR, but YOU'RE
HA HA HA Porky
Re: Cassie – That was so dame funny. Oh and so you know he traded the pink hair in and know his hair is even more ugly then before. If you get a chance and find the new years eve pics with him at Tila's party you will see how ugly it really is, and I agree reality t.v. stars are stupid at least most of them are and I also would like to add that I don't know how he stayed in that rapper competion as long as he did. When he was bitchen that he wanted to go they should had tossed his ass out.
