Roseanne’s Apology To Valerie Jarrett Also Came With Some Unsolicited Hair Advice
I hope the irony is not lost on her?
Roseanne Barr gave her first official TV interview, after swearing she didn’t trust TV and would interview herself (which…didn’t exactly go well). Roseanne clearly found a TV personality she trusted, and what do you know, the honor went to Sean Hannity of FOX News. Roseanne appeared on Hannity yesterday to discuss the tweet that cost her a show. Roseanne offered up explanations and apologies for the offensive tweet she made at the expense of Valerie Jarrett two months ago. But lest you think Roseanne has learned her lesson and is walking the road to repentance, she also managed to get in another rude jab at Valerie.
Roseanne Is Still Trying To Defend That Tweet About Valerie Jarrett
As promised, Roseanne Barr has interviewed herself for her YouTube channel, in an attempt to once again defend herself against the haters who have accused her of tweeting racism at Valerie Jarrett. For anyone wondering if this screen shot was taken out of context, you’re about to see that it’s very much exactly the prime moment of context.
Roseanne Barr Is Going To Interview Herself On YouTube
Only a week ago, Roseanne Barr bragged to her friend Rabbi Shmuley Boteach that she had traded in Roseanne’s famous couch afghan for a blanket woven from TV offers. Roseanne even promised that she’d be doing a TV interview very soon, her first since ABC fired her for her racist tweet about Valerie Jarrett. But Roseanne’s first interview is going to be on YouTube instead of TV.
Roseanne Barr Is Already Threatening Us With A Return To TV
It’s been a little over a month since Roseanne Barr’s Ambien-powered tweetin’ fingers fucked with an easy check when her show Roseanne got canceled because she just couldn’t help herself and shat up a racist tweet about Valerie Jarrett. Since then, ABC has ordered a Roseanne-less spin-off of Roseanne called The Conners. And surprisingly, Roseanne hasn’t tried to prove that she’s not a racist by going away for a few weeks before hitting the pap stroll hand-in-hand with Al Sharpton while holding a certificate that shows she graduated with honors from Starbucks diversity training program. Instead of doing that, Roseanne bought a jumbo-sized bottle of glycerin tears at Costco and she’s been crying in interviews including one where she said that she’s been offered tons of deals to make her triumphant return to television and she’s very close to taking one. To quote my sister when I told her I couldn’t go to the movies with her because I had an actual date with an actual human man, “Sure, girl.”
Roseanne Got Teary In Her First Interview Since Her Racist Tweet
While ABC is clearly ready to move on from the embarrassing mess that was Roseanne, Roseanne Barr herself isn’t able to exit stage left as easily. For nearly a month now, Roseanne’s name has been synonymous with Ambien jokes due to a really gross Tweet she made about former Obama adviser Valerie Jarrett. Roseanne has issued some excuse-heavy apologies on Twitter, like saying her Planet of the Apes crack was really about anti-semitism. Well, now we can hear what one of those apologies sounds like; Roseanne has given her first interview since this all went down. And much like the name of Carly Rae Jepsen’s last album, Roseanne’s interview was full of capital-E emotion.
ABC Has Ordered A Spin-Off Of “Roseanne” Called “The Conners”
As expected, TV Line is reporting that ABC has ordered a spin-off of their Roseanne revival tentatively titled The Conners. Just like that, the Roseanne in Roseanne disappears into the Roseanne graveyard of things we never speak of again, like Dan’s death, or Lonnie Anderson.
