Well she never claimed to be a fashionista...but the girl does seem to have a big heart under all that talk Rosie O'Donnell is setting the right kind of stage for her new memoir. She cancelled her interview with Good Morning America's Diane Sawyer on October 9. The interview was for the ex The View co-host to talk about her book, Celebrity Detox. Of course Good Morning America producers said they were very disappointed. But Rosie is very strong and opinionated as most of America knows (Trump, Hasselbeck, whoever else dares to take her on, etc.) so when she speaks, it's a wrap. And it is her choice.
Rosie denies rumors that she dissed Oprah by saying no to an interview. This is what she had to say about the super talk show host's invitation, "Oprah is a force of nature, her invitation made me cry, her kind words about the book reinforce what we all know to be true about her. Although feuds seems to be all the rage, there isn't one, regardless of what you read or see on fast food TV."
The reason that the media boxing Rosie says she doesn't want to do a television interview is because she wants readers of her book to get out of it what they will or what they should without pre-influence. "Writing is for me...the most revealing medium to work in. I do not feel ready to discuss or defend the things I shared on those 209 pages. For now, I decided no interviews about Celebrity Detox. It is too raw." Writings from O'Donnell's blog last Tuesday.
That's very respectable and mature in an age in entertainment where publicity and sales from it are everything. This to me intrigues me more to read the book than any interview talks had before. Good look Rosie.
