Rosie Slams "Idol" as Racist, Weightist

Posted Mar 6th 2007 1:20PM by TMZ Staff

Rosie O'Donnell laid a smackdown on "American Idol" this morning from her perch on "The View," saying that "Idol" canned former contestant Frenchie Davis for her breast-baring snapshots, but kept current wannabe Antonella Barba despite hers -- because Davis is black and fat and Barba is, well, not.

"It's weightist and wacist," said Rosie, doing her best Donald Duck impression. Silly wabbit Wosie, ever heard of Wuben Studdard? Fantasia? Babwa wasn't there to comment.

Rosie, never one to hold back her opinions, also took time out during Hot Topics to blast "The Insider" for propagating the saga of 841-pound Renee Williams, who died yesterday from a heart attack.

362. I also, use to like Rosie, when she first started with her own show. Now, I CAN'T STAND HER! SHE IS SHOWING HER TRUE COLORS! I think she is a moron, and wish Barabara Walters, of THE VIEW, would get the HINT. NO ONE LIKES ROSIE. (OH Barbara, dear, don't you have "clout"????) Get Rosie off of The VIEW. It's been torture watching Rosie with her every morning 10 minute diatribe. Barf.....can't watch THE View, any longer.

Merideth: You are better off on The Today Show!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

363. Just fire her. She's rude, insensitive, one-sided, selfish, hateful, hurtful, inconsiderate, overbearing, controlling, fat and ugly. Choose to NOT USE ANY PRODUCTS ADVERTISED ON "THE VIEW" as long as Rosie is running the show. Better yet, just turn the thing off like me.
