After meeting at a Starbucks earlier this year, Rosie O’Donnell and girlfriend Michelle Rounds have decided to tie the knot.

See, singles? It is possible to meet people at Starbucks. As long as you’re looking for aspiring screenwriters, broke college students too poor to pay for their own Internet, or Rosie O’Donnell.

The 49 year-old announced the news to her Rosie Show studio audience on Friday that the pair will exchange vows over Christmas. Rosie and Michelle have had a whirlwind romance, making their public debut just a few months ago, in September. Michelle is a corporate head-hunter for a New York technology company, and according to friends, she and Rosie are “very, very happy.”
You know you’ve made it in Hollywood when Donald Trump picks a feud with you. Donald Trump is like that kid in grade school that was starved for attention and would creepily watch everyone from his tree house, then pop out from nowhere and slam you.

From Martha Stewart to Charlie Sheen, The Donald seems to watch the world from his underground lair, and then chooses to fight with whoever is trending on Google. Finally, after picking on President Obama, Trump was put in his place.

But don’t worry, Trump always finds a way to save face and maintain his biggest fan—himself. He has a long history of speaking his mind, not considering about how it will affect others, and then being “very proud of himself”.

In 2005, Donald Trump wrote Martha Stewart a scathing letter after she had her own spin-off of The Apprentice:<

On her Sirius XM radio show, Rosie O'Donnell defended Chris Brown, saying she “felt mildly angry at Robin Roberts.”

“I don’t know why this kid seems to be held to a different standard than anybody else,” O’Donnell said.

Has Rosie not seen the pictures of Rihanna’s face from that beating? Because I’m pretty sure we’re all expected to live up to the standard of not making someone look that way.

O’Donnell said she felt like calling Robin Roberts and asking if she could take a second look at the situation to see how she was responsible. O’Donnell later tweeted that Chris Brown was a victim, too.

I’m really not getting how Chris Brown is a victim, though everyone sure seems hell-bent on it. What’s he a victim of, negative publicity? Sorry, I think I’m all out of f-cks to give. You don’t want people to hate you? Probably try not bashing someone’s face in. Maybe?

Rosie then continued, saying,

“Part of me wanted to take a chair and throw it through the window at The View after all that happened. But, you know, there are no windows down there in that rat-infested cellar. It was like prison.”

It’s hard to take her defense of Chris Brown seriously when she calls a million dollar, totally voluntary job, “prison”. I’d keep going about how ridiculous that is, but frankly, I’m afraid Rosie is going to kick my ass.

Rosie O'Donnell announced today via her blog that she may be facing a battle with breast cancer.

Rosie wrote one of her signature haikus to describe what she’s going through, which you can read here.

She explains that doctors found two lumps in her breasts last week, and they are currently being biopsied. She insists to her fans that the doctors say it’s "probably nothing."

But what’s scary is that her own mother died of breast cancer at age 39. Rosie herself had a lump removed at the age of 30 as well.

Take a look at Rosie’s piece—it’s pretty powerful.

We’re all keeping her in our thoughts…story developing…
What the hell was Oprah thinking? First she allegedly rigs her own win your OWN show concert and then she gives Rosie O'Donnell a show?! She's gone mad!

With American Idol ending next week and Simon Cowell leaving after this season, the question on everyone’s minds is: Who is going to take over the infamous judge’s seat?

Simon’s made a name for himself as the stern--yet fair--judge on Idol, and finding his successor will likely be a much bigger challenge for show execs than replacing Paula Abdul. Here is Hollyscoop's list for the top ten people we wouldn't mind seeing fill Cowell's shoes.

Author Kitty Kelley is revealing all about America’s favorite talk show queen Oprah in her latest biography. But we highly think Winfrey will be running to the bookstore to pick up a copy.

The book is reportedly all about Oprah’s deepest darkest secrets, and the woman she is when the cameras aren’t rolling. Kelley appeared on the Today show this morning and said, "There are so many secrets in her life. Secrets about her relationship, secrets within her family.”

Oprah Plans Nighttime Program on New Network

Kelley never actually spoke to Oprah directly to get information for the book, but says she used countless interviews the talk-show queen has given through the years, and also quotes from friends, family members and employees.

As for the rumor Winfrey and her best friend Gayle King are in a relationship, Kelley says there is "no foundation for the rumors of a lesbian relationship." However Kelley quotes Rosie O'Donnell (from a 2009 Howard Stern interview) saying Winfrey and King are the "emotional equivalent of a gay couple," and author Erica Jong saying, "I would not be surprised if Oprah is gay."

Oprah Winfrey Lands Interview With John Edwards' Mistress

The author goes into deeper secrets, like claiming that Oprah was molested as a young girl, and has a secret birth father. Her known father, Vernon Winfrey, was interviewed for the book, and told Kelley,: "I need her show like a hog needs a holiday. She may be admired by the world, but I know the truth. So does God and so does Oprah. Two of us remain ashamed."

So scandalous! We couldn’t imagine what he is referring to, but now the book is sounding a little interesting! Oprah is out in stores tomorrow.
Rosie O'Donnell is returning to daytime television! Rosie is set to take over Oprah's time slot once Oprah wraps up her show in 2011.

Page Six's Cindy Adams spoke to Rosie about her new venture, and it sounds like a pretty big deal!

Oprah Invites Glee Cast to Her Show

“She’s a creature of the medium,” writes Adams. “Television is her playpen. It’s where she belongs. I also knew something she’d told me awhile ago.

"She’d said to me: ‘I gotta get back on TV. There’s a Chuck E. Cheese near where I live. I’ve been taking the kids there for years. And they know I tip 100 percent because I used to be a waitress. Would you believe the other day, for the first time, they made me wait? On a line. Behind a rope. I gotta get back on TV.’”

She then told Adams’ table: “And it’ll be Oprah’s time slot.”

That's a huge deal! Do you think Rosie has what it takes to replace Oprah in that time slot?
We’re starting to think there’s a bit of truth to author Ian Halperin’s book Brangelina Exposed. The rumors have been flying for a whole week, with multiple sources claiming Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have either split already, or that they are headed in that direction. On the flip side, sources close to the couple are denying the rumors.

But just this morning, Howard Stern announced on live radio that the stories were in fact true. He called into Rosie O'Donnell’s show “Rosie Radio” to talk about the state of Brangelina.

Though the transcript from the broadcast is not yet available, ONTD reports that Stern told Rosie Howard that they are no longer together.

Rosie asked Howard if he actually knew that or was just going off of the tabloids and Howard said that he did in fact know somehow. When Rosie asked how Howard could know these thing, he used the “I know people” line.

Howard said that even though Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful woman he's ever seen that Brad should have known better since Billy Bob Thornton, a man who has a fear of antiques and only eats orange food, said that she had too many problems for him.

Stay tuned for the audio from the segment!

We’ve heard rumors for months that Rosie O'Donnell and her longtime partner Kelli Carpenter were on the rocks. But now there may be truth to the story, straight from the horse’s mouth.

In an interview with USA Today, Rosie made a tearful statement about the current state of her marriage. She said, "We're a family, we remain a family and we're working on the issues.”

She also noted that the couples’ four kids together—Parker, Chelsea, Blake, and Vivienne—are their priority. "They're adorable and wonderful and they are by far a priority," O'Donnell said.

"Kelli and I love each other very much and we are working on our issues. Those are the only words I am ever going to say. Ever. And that is something that has been agreed upon by all parties. But everything's fine and everybody's good and we're still both raising them together. We will both continue to parent them and we're friendly and everything's all right."

Sounds to us like it’s been splitsville for a while for Rosie and Kelli. It must be hard trying to keep this from the spotlight, and make the kids happy at the same time. We wish them the best during this tough time!
