Rosie O'Donnell On Jimmy Kimmel    Welcome back Rosie O'Donnell.   Early in my celebrity photographer career I got to meet and photograph Rosie O'Donnell many many times. From day one, I adored her. Her publicist back then was Ed Callaghan who was Irish and loved his cocktails. We all loved Ed Callaghan because when he called you to photograph one of his clients, you knew it was cocktails and a party.  But meeting Rosie back then, she was starting out her career too. From day one she was funny and such a nice person to talk too. I was always around no matter what publicist handled her, she went from comedy clubs and then because huge in so many Broadway shows. She also because a nighttime fixture at many of the events they had around New York City back then when our city was really a fun place to be. Then her talk show stardom. What a career! Back then, we all knew Trump and we all hung out with him at parties. Trump was always a moron. I was good friends with h...

Rosie O'Donnell Talks To CNN Actress Rosie O'Donnell talked to CNN's Chris Cuomo about why she has turned a feud with President Donald Trump into activism in leading a nightly protest at the White House since Trump's meeting with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. EDITOR NOTE: Rosie O'Donnell is right on the money with everything she has said and is saying to CNN. First of all, she knows the guy as do I, personally. He was always a lying piece of crap. It is very funny how Donald Trump calls everything "FAKE NEWS", as The Donald is the inventor of "FAKE NEWS".  His publicity stunts over the years in New York City are what movies are made of. He could care less about the poor, the homeless or the sick. FACTS! One example. Years ago I was doing a photo shoot at the Metropolitan Club across the street from the Plaza Hotel, which he owned at the time. Ivana and Donald Trump walked out and a homeless guy was asking for a dollar. It was ...

These politicians were bought and paid for and Rosie knows this. Real shame, but they will learn next election.   As of right now, the Rich have gotten their way. They passed the tax cuts and they are heading to Trump's desk to sign. Donald Trump is a crook. This benefits him and his family. He will not be in office much longer. He has cheated people all his life, from every bankruptcy he has filed where small businesses were paid pennies on the dollar and went out of business, to now where he is going af...

**** THE GLORIOUS CORNER Story By: G. H. HARDING **** Whoopi Goldberg IDES OF JIM --- I had quite the magical evening the other night; the kind that could never happen again. It was the New York-book launch of the new memoir from Jim Petereik (Ides of March; Survivor) titled Through The Eye Of The Tiger (BenBella Books). First off, it was held at Steve Walter’s Cutting Room which is the perfect venue for an event like this; and, it was a glittering crowd, including Vanilla Fudge-drummer Carmine Appice; Gene Cornish from The Rascals and Peppy Castro from the Blue Magoos . I had just that afternoon finished reading Jim’s book and found it to be one of the best rock-books like this ever written … and, he wrote every word himself. As he said from the stage, during just a stupendous solo performance, he didn’t think he could write a book like this because there was no major re-hab or career-adjustment drama … just a pretty pristine solo career marked by the f...

**** THE WEB GOSSIP **** The guy or girl that writes this column is a very big industry insider who wishes to remain anonymous, but wants to write about all the headlines happening in Hollywood and the Music Industry. **** Dick Clark CLAY COLE RISES --- This last six months has produced an almost staggering array of music-related books; Mark Spitz’s terrific David Bowie book, which despite some naysayers, I found totally captivating; detailed, and, very factual. It made this reader realize all over again what a truly singular talent Bowie was … and, is. Phil Sutcliffe’s terrific opus, “Queen: The Ultimate Illustrated History of the Crown Kings of Rock”; “Elton” by celebrity-biographer Mark Bego; Jon Bream’s “Neil Diamond Is Forever: The Illustrated Story of the Man and His Music”; and, Paul Shaffer and David Ritz’s “We'll Be Here for the Rest of Our Lives.” Our pal Tom Cuddy gave us a new one to read: “Sh-Boom – The Explosion of Rock ‘N Roll 1953-1968”(Morgan/Jam...

Rosie O'Donnell Fun loving Rosie O'Donnell's breakup from wife Kelli Carpenter was smooth and drama-free because neither partner wanted to fight and lose touch with each other. Rosie is insisting women can always find a way to go their own ways graciously because they always want what's best for everyone involved. Rosie broke up from Kelli in 2008. She says, "We tried very hard to make it work in different configurations. ... It's not really the same paradigm as heterosexual divorce. It's different. "I'm not trying to say it's (lesbian divorce) better. ... Women usually, in relationships, that emotional connection is really the most intense, and so when they break up, I have found, they stay connected. "Every woman I've ever been with, besides one, is still in my life." The star was appearing on "Oprah and also revealed she split from Carpenter because the two were drifting apart. She says, "What you want and need at 30,...
