► ► PART 2 OF 3

Sam and Rosie continue their discussion about how Rosie found out that she is related to Bridget Moynahan, and Sam exclaims his friendship.
RE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KfPirXS39as

We hear about a long time argument about how Rosie stuck up for Lyle and Erik, the Menendez Brothers, and the result. Big stories of their past like the OJ Simpson murders, and how Sam told off Johnnie Cochran in person after he went to see him in The Life on Broadway. And playing the race and gender card for political gain.

Roseann "Rosie" O'Donnell (born March 21, 1962) is an eleven-time Emmy Award-winning American comedian, television talk show host, author, and film, television, and stage actress. She has also been magazine editor and continues to be a celebrity blogger, LGBT civil rights activist, television producer and collaborative partner in the LGBT family vacation company R Family Vacations.

Raised Irish Catholic, O'Donnell lost her mother to cancer as a pre-teen and has consistently stressed values of protecting children and supporting families throughout her career. O'Donnell started her comedy career while still a teenager and her big break was on the talent show Star Search. A TV sitcom and a series of movies introduced the comic to a wider audience and in 1996 she started hosting The Rosie O'Donnell Show which won multiple Emmy awards.

During her years on The Rosie O'Donnell Show she wrote her first book, a memoir called Find Me and developed a reputation for being "the queen of nice" as well as a reputation for charitable philanthropy. She used the book's $3 million advance to establish her own For All Kids foundation and promoted numerous other charity schemes and projects encouraging other celebrities on her show to also take part. O'Donnell came out officially as a "dyke" two months before finishing her talk show run, she cited her primary reason was to bring attention to gay adoption issues. O'Donnell is a foster — and adoptive — mother. She has since continued to support many LGBT causes and issues.

In 2006 O'Donnell became the new moderator on The View boosting ratings and attracting controversies with her more liberal views and strong personality arguably dominating many of the conversations. She became a polarizing figure to many conservatives and her strong opinions resulted in several notable controversies including an on-air dispute regarding The Bush administration's policies with the war in Iraq resulting in her pre-maturely ending her contract. In 2007 O'Donnell also released her second memoir, Celebrity Detox, which focuses on her struggles with fame and her time at The View. She continues to do charity work and remains focused on LGBT and family-related issues.

O'Donnell, the third of five children, was born in Bayside, Queens, New York, the daughter of Roseann Teresa (née Murtha), a homemaker, and Edward Joseph O'Donnell, an electrical engineer who worked in the defense industry. O'Donnell's father had immigrated from County Donegal, Ireland during his childhood, and her mother was Irish American; O'Donnell was raised Catholic. Four days before her 11th birthday on March 17, 1973, O'Donnell's mother died of breast cancer. O'Donnell was raised in Commack, New York.

In high school, she began exploring her comic interest beginning with a high school skit in which she imitated Gilda Radner's character Roseanne Rosannadanna. After graduating, O'Donnell briefly attended Dickinson College, later transferring to, and then dropping out of, Boston University.

  • Who fucking cares about this shit?

    Rosie Who?

    People are starving, governments are killing people, get a life people. Do something more than watching TV and following "Stars". Make a difference, try to help society, try to make the world better place for the generations to come. Get a life.

  • @Uberhilarious and yet, you are here, watching a video with Rosie O'Donnell and wasting time on YouTube. What are YOU doing?

    Why don't you click around to see what Sam is doing, and what Rosie has done.

  • What do you people who love rosie see in her. I think she is a disgusting, dirty, unhappy, loud mouth rude person. I am not commenting on her size or sex preference, just on how she manages herself.

    She said during the View once that she would let her dog lick her babies butt as in her option this cures diaper rash. She is gross.

    Now let the negative comments start.

  • you are mistaken.

  • Your funny Sam... I love how you've emphasized your right... lol

  • I thought that would make her laugh. The thing is - Ro very very often IS right. She's smart and strong - and I love that combination. But she also is a great listener. If you're just strong and don't listen - it don't work. She does is all and forms opiions.

  • I used to be a big Rosie fan, now I feel indifferent about her. I think she looks good in this video though

  • Who's the Bridget person they're talking about at the beginning? Can't hear the surname??

  • I LOVE ROSIE O'DONNELL... she is just SO amazing :DD

  • @Uberhilarious and yet here you are... spending your time commenting on a video about rosie who. you fail at trying to make a political statement.

  • Cochran is a total SOB. I'm glad you said something.

  • Aren't all Irish people related - it's true. All Irish people have been conceived in the same place: Stilorgan Park Hotel, Stilorgan, Country Dublin. For true. :)

  • Good Job~!

  • love you rosie.
