Rosie Is Peeved!
Filed under: Rosie O'Donnell
Rosie O'Donnell is bothered by the fact that according to a new poll, almost 50% of Americans named her the most annoying person of 2007 - followed by Paris Hilton, coming in a distant second.
The former talk show host is so upset about her dubious distinction, that she's made this video about being dubbed most annoying.
Here's an excerpt of what she says:
"I apparently am the most annoying celebrity, according to Parade magazine. And, frankly, most celebrities are annoying. So, I agree. Celebrities are annoying and the fact that I am one is annoying. And I suppose I am the most annoying. But whatever. Why? Cuz I'm loud. Some people don't like me. Barbra Streisand likes me!"
Uhmmm, Barbra Streisand is annoying! It might help to name someone that likes you who is not annoying.
Re: riley – EXACTLY WHAT I WAS GOING TO SAY!!!! I saw the video before I read Perez' comment on it and am annoyed that he can't get his shit right! C'mon Perez…be real.
But you huwt Babwa Wawa, Wosie, and we gwew up with: "What sowt of twee would you be?" We can't just wet you get away with that. Weally, we can't. Pwus, you gave new meaning to the wowds 'bully pulpit'. Now that, we WEALLY can't wet go.
Re: Gregorio – I am another homo who can not stand either of them.
I think the Queen of the Pig People should take some of her $$ and buy her buddy Keith Olberman, a better hairpiece
you say Barbara Streisand is annoying??? A gay man calling the mother of all faghags annoying??? That's it…you really are drummed outta the core now!
Re: Connie – Tsk, tsk, are you truly naive enough to believe none of her shit is contrived? As though she is blissfully unaware the things she says and does are controversial? Is it necessary to cite examples? Have you reached an age that doesn't include the word '-teen'? Britney is really a good mom, and while it WAS water in Lindsay's water bottle, it really WASN't her cokepants, Paris really does care about Rwanda, and Tom & Katie are really in love. Come on, now, wake up. To give Rosie her due, she started stand-up, then did stand-up on VH-1. She KNOWS the media/entertainment biz from the bottom up. She's well aware of how many people see her blog, the videos, the pics. She's well aware of how to play it. To all you Nip/Tuck-ers: funny, isn't it, how she always made sure to plug her spots for that show repeatedly and in plenty of time to create buzz, to get more people to watch. She knows what she's doing, and how to work it.
uh hey rosie,
if you want to change the fact that people think you're annoying,
maybe you should stop being annoying.
just a thought.
rosie is fucking annoying i hate her and her lezbian attitude
love you perez… she is annoying
Rosie!
Your a stupid cunt!
I dont even consider her a celebrity because she is not important.
She is just stupid.
Imagine waking up and haveing her next to you!
I would die.
But then I'd come back to kill the bitch for giving my sheets herpes!
Perex Roxks!
she's a stupid, stupid bitch. be gay that's fine but don't be sooooo out and flaming!!!!!!!!
I Like Rosie alot, she's smart, brave, dedicated and not afraid of saying the truth- not a hypocrite.
I Like Rosie alot, she's smart, brave, dedicated and not afraid of saying the truth- not a hypocrite.
your annoying perez. i watched that video and your taking that text out of context.. fuckin idiot.
You stupid, misquoting, @#ck! She said Barbra Streisand in response to her daughter.
Re: Paul – Paul Darling what does "smart, brave, dedicated and not afraid of saying the truth" have to do with her being a hypocrite or not? Sweetheart, she most certainly is hypocrite. A great big annoying one.
If you watch her video and visit her website, you will see that Rosie is actuallly not reallly bothered by the survey results and brushes it off. Her daughter is the one that says Barbra S. likes her.
You stupid, misquoting, @#ck! She said Barbra Streisand in response to her daughter.
ROSIE actually supports you. You suck.
To all the effin losers who hate Rosie because she is gay or chubby,, go fuck off and lets see what you all look like.. put up your pics and i bet Rosie looks better then all of you haters. I for one loves Rosie and i am a 45 year old married woman and NOT A LESBIAN like you all think people who like Rosie are. Just a bunch of closed minded, little brained idiots who cant think for themselves.
But she lovesss Barbra! So do I… and so do you Perez, don't deny it or your gay card will be taken away!
How annoying!
Re: Tina Jones –
YOU GO, TINA JONES!
I LOVE YOU! (AND NOT IN A LESBIAN WAY!)
Rosie is a wonderful person in sooo many ways.
What has Perez done for others?
leave rosie alone!she is a good person and would not hurt anybody-u all r just jealous.
Re: riley –
We almost give a shit about what a retard like you thinks of us!
The DONALD was right. What a classless slob Rosie is. She puts 'a' in annoying. HAPPY 2008 EVERYONE!!!
Re: Tina Jones –
Wow! I honestly thought that it was a simple minded teenager writing that. I am surprised (not too much though) to see it's from a 45 year old. You are the quintessential piece of trash. You are obviously not very intelligent and your ranting proves my point!
what a bad fat horrible loser
PEREZ HILTON IS ANNOYING AND HE LIKES ROSIE.
Hell yes she is the most annoying and so are her retarded fans who hang on her every word. Rosie is plain stupid and a fat loud mouth.
Sad to say
But I see a serious STROKE in Rosie's future
She definitely should not go around bragging Babs likes her. Not the best way to defend yourself.
look asshole - do your homework -it was not 50% of Americans - it was 2000 people that were polled and apparently most were white republicans as Ann Coulter came in at like 16%!!! wtf???!!!!!!!!!
I love Rosie. She has a big mouth -so what? what she says is of value. yes, we should question our corrupt government and yes we should get the hell out of this war. More people need to stand up for what they believe in. I applaud Rosie and her passion.
ok im looking at the parade results -
Rosie O'Donnell — 44%
Paris Hilton — 24%
Ann Coulter — 16%
Heather Mills McCartney — 12%
Perez Hilton — 4%
who the hell came up with this list?
Where is Michael Vick? Mel Gibson? That racist idiot from Seinfeld? The homophobic idiot from grey's anatomy, Donald trump, and what about ryan seacrest - now there is a REAL annoying closeted idiot
perez why aren't you gloating about coming in at 4% on that list?
could it be because you know that list is full of shit?
I think Rosie should have tied with Trump
Re: truth – Thruth you are clueless and sooo wrong about Rosie,I have never heard her say anything mean to anybody who didnt deserve it. Why arent you angry at the people that are running the show now. Bush,Dick, Condi ,Rumsfeld(not there anymore)Carl, Scooter,Gonzales(surprise gone too).They are all criminals .They have send our American children fathers daughters to fight a war under false pretense.They have taken the American Constititution and turned it on its head.History will prove you and many wrong one day .You will be seen as the people who did nothing and said nothing all the while bashing people who truly care for you and this country. Meanwhile why wasnt that pervert Bill Oreilly on that list, he is the grossest human alive.
Oh, Perez, just as soon as I start to like you, you pull something like this. That was totally taken out of context, as others have said. I love Rosie.
i met her and her kids over the summer, her niece got married where I work. she was really nice and funny. the media takes every single comment by anyone out of context. oh well. noone here really knows her so why dont we reserve judgement..

Re: Tina Jones –
You are that ugly robot Elizabitch from satan's hellish layer of the marsh, arent' you? We know the kind of cunt that you are. Die bitch, die.
She can't talk her way out of this one. She just needs to hibernate for awhile like the she-bear she is. If she comes out in the spring and isn't spouting off about every little topic when no one cares about her opinion, she'll be less annoying.
Re: Susan – What? Rosie actually has a blog? If that was the only place she voiced her opinions, she wouldn't be annoying. But she has an opinion about EVERYTHING and has no problem vomiting them up everywhere, in every context at the top of her lungs.
First of all you fat pig you went right onto her Blog and copied her remark. You make it sound as if she released this to the press, she did not. Whoever voted in that poll thinks that having a mind of your own and speaking up about things you believe in are annoying. Well, I guess I am just as annoying as Rosie because that is what I strive to be. This woman does more good then any of these voting assholes will ever do. Rosie most annoying.. what a joke when you have Paris and her crew stalking hollywood.
Streisand and Rosie dueling twats! I'd pay to se that! Yes! And Hilary squirting!
We have a moron for a president and rosie was voted most annoying? how does that work? because she had the guts to say what she actually thinks and on daytime tv no less? Men do it all the time and no one bashes jon stewart or david lettermen!!
Rosie isn't annoying…just opinionated.
Rosie is fine. Leave her alone!
why do republicans find rosie so threatening? perhaps because she speaks the truth!! This war is wrong PERIOD!
Wow. She really could not believe it! It came to her as the biggest surprise. REALITY CHECK SWEETIE: look at yourself in the mirror and look at what you have done. I might agree on some of the stuff she has said but I really think she needs to get rid of that 'tude.
These celebs are way too worried about what people think…or tabloids report. Rosie O'Donnell has a way of conveying her viewpoints in a pushy, uncouth, and disrespectful way. If she doesn't realize this about herself, she should continue to seek therapy and/or objective counsel to point this out. Of course, she is probably unwilling to listen to anyone else's opinion, if what she has shown us of herself so far also relates to her personal life. In short, deal with it, honey! It's part of the celebrity game!
So many door knobs!!! Not many sparkling. As Rosie says "PEACE OUT PEEPS"! Rosie speaks out when most celebs are afraid too. Rosie is a voice that's needed. She's help us see, hear and think! It was a mag rag poll.?.!. Far less than 44% of the population. GO ROSIE GO…ON BEING ROSIE! Thanks for your blog 2…
Rosie is beautiful. She is strong, she is opinionated, she speaks from the heart. She is truly AMAZING in every way.
Re: Tina Jones –
HAHAHA! what is a 45 year old woman doing on this website. Don't you have some kids to feed?
SHE IS ANNOYING NOT AT ALL ENTERTAINING SHES 100 TIMES MORE ANNOYING THEN PARIS OR BRITNEY
What I find fascinating is that Rosie left the the View back in June!! Well over 6 months ago!! She has been living life outside of the "celebosphere" choosing to mainly speak through her blogging. In order to read her blogs, one has to actively seek her out.
As for this parade list - Give me a fucking break!! A bunch of republican men and women who are threatened by a woman who who is vocal against the war but they find Ann Coulter more enjoyable???
Hmmm, I would rather stick pins in my eyes than have to spend any time with any one of those "voters"!!!!

ummm….get ur crap straight perez-she isn't ticked-she is just stating what peeps said- too bad you aren't at the top cuz you are one ugly dude? dudette?
she is about family and cares about others and she has an opinion-all you do is look for the worst in people-what do you do for others that is good? hmmmm….
Rosie is great.
However it looks like Perez and Parade Magazine are in dire need of some PR - why else run this garbage? most annoying? best looking kid? are you kidding me?What a sorry world we live in.
I use to LOVE Rosie. She use to be so funny. She was great on her talk show. Now, apparently she thinks her opinion is the only opinion that matters. Then if you say you don't like her it is because she is a lesbian or because she is fat. No Rosie it is because you are not only loud but you don't allow other people to have opinions that differ from yours. If they dare not agree with you they are labeled as lesbian or fat haters. Wrong! Just get some other enhancing social skills and we will love you again. Get a clue.

how does a woman who's been out of the spotlight for months windup on a most annoying list? maybe because she's a woman and a lesbian. interesting to note that 4 out of the 5 most annoying were women! Where was president bush? Any of the athletes who lied about doing steroids? Michael Vick - dog torturer?
i love rosie too. i love her for being loud and for being strong in the face of adversity and oh yeah all that charitable stuff is awesome too
you rock ro - don't let these idiots get ya down!
how can you not love rosie. she donates millions to charity. so she's loud? plenty of us are. it mean we are passionate about things! Try it sometime!
People are threatened by things and people they don't understand…sad really…
Re: ichabod is itchy, so am i – Oh stop your crying, you must ba a women. Remember, big girls don't cry. Hint, the way your crying, maybe that's why women make up much of the list.
Re: neena –
"Now, apparently she thinks her opinion is the only opinion that matters."
WHAT SHE SAID WAS ON HER BLOG… SHE IS SAYING IT TO PEOPLE WHO ARE HER FANS, WHO WANT TO RELATE TO HER. Leeches like Perez go there, and rip her off so they don't have to work, and now you have something to say about her. Leave her alone.
LMAO, WTF does she expect with that big f-in mouth? Hey, Rosie! There is a reason you got kicked off of the View, it's your big f-in mouth! DUH……………….
It was great to have a female voice this year talking abouit important current events and on daytime tv no less. like or hate rosie, she starrted a great and important debate among women!!
Your annoying`….
Deal with it….. get over it… or just take bigger steps`….
It's not our fault your such an annoying pain in the ass“`
Rosie looks like a cross between, Humpty Dumpty, Porky Pig and Jabba the Hut.
Your annoying`….
Deal with it….. get over it… or just take bigger steps`….
It's not our fault your such an annoying pain in the buttttt“`
Re: btexpress –
"There is a reason you got kicked off of the View,"
Uh, no…THEY WANTED HER TO SIGN A 3 YEAR CONTRACT, AND SHE ONLY WANTED A ONE YEAR CONTRACT. THEY DIDN'T KICK HER OFF, SHE DID NOT SIGN ANOTHER CONTRACT.
Re: Boo hoo –
boohoo - seems you're the one doing all the crying here.
so, you really prfer dog torturers to rosie? lying atletes too? good on you bud!
What a prize ur!!
I'm a guy but i don't get why rosie gets shit on for saying the same things that john stewart and bill maher do? What exactly is so threatening about a woman's opinion? If you don't agree w/ her or like her, simply change the channel or don't seek her out.
Is it me, or at the end of that video she looks like Lou Costello? Anyway she is annoying. Very much so.
Rosie - is a fat annoying pig! She needs to shut her big mouth and just chill.
Parade readers don't seem to read much except for that free rag they voted in. Rosie has been off the air for months!!
First off it was 2000 readers not 50% of the population
second of all why didn't you mention that you were on the list too Perez?
3rd of all who gives a flying fig what parade mag thinks?
We love Rosie !
Re: ichabod is itchy, so am i – Sweetie, those people aren't out there pushing their agenda down our throats. I don't remember Michael Vick or Larry Bonds having a blog or a talk show, do you? Celebrities that choose to push their personal beliefs are bound to piss some people off. I don't remember any of these athletes doing that. Of course Michael Vick is a scum, but if they have a poll for athletes, I'm sure he will be on it. Sounds to me, like you feel Rosie should get a pass because she's a women.
rosie didn't get kicked off the View, she CHOSE to leave.
She is smart enough not totake part in things she doesn't believe in.
Smart woman!
No, Rosie. You're not annoying because you're a celebrity. You're just a big, fat loud mouthed obnoxious person who stuffs your point of view down our throats because you have a captive audience AS a celebrity.
SHUT YOUR BIG, UGLY PIE HOLE FOR 4 SECONDS.
You're opinions about life are no better than those of us common folk.
Just shut up for a while. Loud mouth.
Re: BARBRA – very mature, it sounds like a 12 year old Nobody likes you-blah,blah,blah-dont drag me into your "SLIMMY"-as in super skinny? world. GROW UP LITTLE HATER!
Re: Boo Hoo – I quote:
"Sweetie, those people aren't out there pushing their agenda down our throats"
SINCE WHEN IS HAVING A BLOG PUSHING YOUR AGENDA DOWN OUR THROATS?
WHAT SHE SAID WAS ON HER BLOG… SHE IS SAYING IT TO PEOPLE WHO ARE HER FANS, WHO WANT TO RELATE TO HER. Leeches like Perez go there, and rip her off so they don't have to work, and now you have something to say about her. Leave her alone.
Im curious Perez is all your reporting complete out of context bullshit? Rosie is responding to her 5 yr. old daughters questions. She isn't just tossing Barbara's name out as 1 person that likes her. In your defense though I could see where a conversation w/ a 5yr. old might be too confusing for your wee lil brain to follow!
Rosie acts like she is all hurt by being named Most Annoying Celeb. Waaahhh.
That's what ya get when you open your fat mouth and defend terrorsits and call our troops murderers. She is disgusting and I am embarrassed that she is an American. She needs to move her fat ass to Iraq and live with those idiots….afterall, she loves them so much is embarrased of her own country. God, I hate Rosie.
And maybe Perez, you shouldn't give advice to people who are annoying…it's a little like, look who's talking!
Parade sucks ass anyway, everyone knows that.
Rosie's the mother effing bomb!
Re: vickivi –
It was great to have a female voice this year talking abouit important current events and on daytime tv no less. like or hate rosie, she starrted a great and important debate among women!!
A(MOTHER FUCKING)MEN
perez is totally pushing buttons - he knows us true fans will come here and defend rosie as best we can. not that she needs defending but it does get annoying to see a chick bashed for the same things the good ole boys have been doing for ages - trash talking the president.
HELLO? ROSIE?
We don;t want you as "our voice".
Not as women.
Not as lesbians.
Not as liberals.
.
We each have our own voice. And it doesn't sound like yours.
.
Dear God, don't let her represent us on any of these levels or in any capacity.
.
Rosie, you persona is the reason straight people have a bad image of lesbian women. We are NOT all loud and butch. We are NOT all pushy and aggressive. We are NOT all hostile and unwelcoming to ideas outside our own. Passionate does not have to mean obnoxious.
.
Her blog "poetry" (I don't know what else to call it) is some of the most insipid, sophomoric, self-absorbed diatribe I've ever seen.
.
God, I wish she'd never come out.
Re: tour93 –
dont drag me into your "SLIMMY"-as in super skinny?
HA! I think this is another shining example of the type who hate Rosie: Stupid!
I think she meant "SLIMY". SO SAD. You know, Barbra, your computer probably has a dictionary. Use it.
Now, Tour93, let's take a moment to laugh at Barbra:()
Yes, Rosie is EXTREMELY annoying. So is:
Donald Trump
Elizabeth Hasselbeck
"Christian" conservatives
people who drive Hummers
Jay Leno
Peyton Manning (enough fucking commercials already, dude. Enough)
Re: HollywoodLori –
Rosie supports the troops and visits them and sends packages. Her problem is not with the troops, it's with our government who are the only people she did call terrorists. And I think invading another country under false pretenses, allowing torture to be used and going against the geneva act certainly constitutes terrorism!!
What do you do to support our troops? send holiday cards? care packages? buy new uniforms? Or do you just bitch about things you don't know anything about on random boards….
Re: Rosie.fan.kinda – "Debbie Downer" I know right, I mean who wants to here someone talking about an illegal war when there are more "FUN" topics we should be discussing like, 'Who is more annoying Britney?, Paris?, or a grown-up determined to get people to focus on the atrocities of the bush administration. oh and to Perez, THEY DIDN'T POLL ALL AMERICANS!! so it cannot be 50% of ALL Americans and the quotes you mixed and matched were in the context of a conversation w/ her 5yr. old. Understandable how the conversation was intellectually out of your league.
