According to Perez Hilton, "Friends state that Rounds may be only dipping a toe in the lesbian pool. Rounds has dated men before and friends are worried once the sizzle of dating a celebrity wears off, Rounds will bolt. Rounds didn't come out to her parents until AFTER her shacking up with Rosie.

Rosie O'Donnell and HBO offer an important documentary airing January 31 at 7PM, called A Family is a Family is a Family: A Rosie O’Donnell Celebration.

In the documentary, children of various families offer their insights about what being a family means to them.

SIRIUS XM Radio announced an agreement with Rosie O'Donnell - the Emmy-award winning talk show host, actress, stand-up comedienne, and lesbian mom - to host Rosie Radio, a new daily morning radio show.

Rosie O'Donnell, who hosts a live variety special, "Rosie Live," next week for NBC, feels the economic and political climate is perfect for the revival of the variety show.

"The economy has made it so that people are staying at home more, so we're going to give people an hour to forget about their troubles," O'Donnell told reporters in a conference call Wednesday.

Variety is reporting that NBC will air "Rosie’s Variety Show" live from New York on the night before Thanksgiving - Nov. 26 - at 8 p.m. The special, which has been in the works for months, is believed to be the precursor to a regular variety show hosted by O’Donnell that would start in the new year.

The hourlong event will include celebrity guests, musical acts, and comedy skits.

Rosie O'Donnell's negotiations with MSNBC have ended. She just posted the following explanation on her blog:

A few months ago, a Washington state family with two moms was living a great life.

But after nearly 18 years together, one was stricken with a brain aneurysm and died. The family says the way they were treated by a Miami hospital compounded their shock and grief.
