HONEY BOO BOO TAKES THE GROVE

#honeybooboo #janetcharlton

The Honey Boo Boo steamroller just keeps advancing! Honey Boo Boo (Alana Thompson) and her mama June visited the Grove today on their whirlwind tour of Hollywood. They’ve been on local TV shows all day and Extra invited them to The Grove to talk about Rosie O’Donnell’s invitation to buy them a new house. June said she likes the house she lives in, but wouldn’t mind renovating and adding some bedrooms. Rosie wants to make a TV special out of the home makeover. Simon Doonan says Honey Boo Boo is “today’s Shirley Temple” and he might be right.

Elizabeth Taylor Insurance Lifetime Lindsay Lohan Liz and Dick Rosie O'Donnell

ROSIE O’DONNELL IS RIGHT – LINDSAY LOHAN HAS YET TO PROVE SHE’S BETTER AT ACTING THAN SHOPLIFTING

We never thought we’d say this, but we are in total agreement with Rosie O’Donnell in her opinion of Lindsay Lohan. Rosie isn’t the only one sick and tired of hearing people mindlessly parrot the statement the Lindsay has problems “but she IS a good actress.” Rosie ranted on the Today show that Lindsay hasn’t really done any decent acting since she was sixteen in “Mean Girls.” (Except in courtrooms.) And child stars DON’T necessarily grow up to be brilliant actors. She has YET to prove herself. Lindsay was hired for the Liz Taylor role in Lifetime’s “Liz and Dick” because she brings so much attention and publicity to the production – NOT because she’s a great actress, or remotely resembles Liz. The nervous producer says she’s “the most insured actress EVER” and admits they’re moving the location from Canada to Los Angeles to increase the odds that Lindsay will show up for work.

Kathy Griffin, 51, opened up a teensy bit about her new boyfriend to Rosie O’Donnell. We caught them together last December 15 leaving Katsuya, but for a CHANGE, Kathy wasn’t so chatty and wouldn’t introduce him. She recently admitted to Rosie that she’s deliberately keeping him under wraps because he’s not fond of the limelight, but we think he better get used to it FAST. Without naming the guy, Kathy described him as “a normal guy with a job” and a “nice person.” Oh yes, and he’s 18 years younger than she is. But we’re happy for her.

Fashion New Year's Eve Party Rosie O'Donnell Sean Combs, Puff, Diddy

P DIDDY’S SECURITY GUARDS DIDN’T LIKE ROSIE O’DONNELL’S FASHION

We couldn’t help but laugh when we heard that Rosie O’Donnell and six “casually dressed” friends were turned away by security guards at the door at Sean “Diddy” Combs’ fancy Miami New Year’s Eve party. We picture Rosie’s buddies as being no-nonsense hefty athletic girls like herself – dressed in t shirts, baggy shorts and crocs. No makeup or stilettos there. Uninformed guards would certainly be prone to refuse entrance to such a group – they know their boss Diddy favors sexy hot young girls. Maybe if the gals had dressed for the occasion it would have been a different story.

Feuds Oprah OWN Rosie O'Donnell

OPRAH AND ROSIE: CLASH OF THE TITANS

Oprah is NOT happy with Rosie O’Donnell. First of all, Rosie’s show isn’t pulling in the ratings that Oprah’s OWN network desperately needs. In order to boost viewership and create excitement, Oprah suggested that Rosie invite people she has famously feuded with to be on the show – like Barbara Walters, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, or Bill O’Reilly. She wants conflict. Oprah remembers the humongous ratings she got when Sarah Palin guested on her show and wants more of THAT, but Rosie is resisting. A major ego clash is predicted.

Chris Brown Denial Rosie O'Donnell

BOO HOO: ROSIE O’DONNELL FEELS SORRY FOR CHRIS BROWN

Rosie O’Donnell is occasionally the voice of reason, but with Chris Brown she missed the boat. When she jumped to his defense after the window-breaking incident, she insisted “He’s a victim, too.” Rosie said “I just don’t know why this kid seems to be held to a different standard than anyone else.” (PERHAPS, Rosie, he does things most other people – especially celebrities- don’t do!) Rosie seems to blame everyone but Chris for his behavior- like Chris himself does. Why Rosie has a soft spot for violent behavior, we don’t know, but maybe her ex-girlfriend does.
