The new project will be based in New York and is described as “a fun, uplifting show with Ms. O'Donnell's playful and energetic style," reveals the statement.

O'Donnell won six consecutive Emmys while hosting the syndicated The Rosie O'Donnell Show, and in 2006, she replaced Meredith Vieira on The View.  Following numerous controversial comments and clashes with her co-hosts, Rosie left the show a year later and was replaced by Whoopi Goldberg.

You sound like a teenager calling school yard names to someone that is different. I hope if you ever have kids they are perfect with no abnormalities and god forbid not gay b/c they will get no love from you if they are not perfect.

This hot piece doesn't have to care, having more money than all of the jealous fools who hate on her. She could wear a frozen turd and still have the lifestyle that they never will. Her big mouth did it for her, whether you like it or not.

You're one of the people who are jealous of those who have a lot without having to put so much effort into their looks. I bet you're ugly, AND you've had "work" done...
