Rosie O’Donnell is returning to work.  A couple of years after her departure from The View, Rosie will have her own show on Sirius satellite radio this fall.

The show which will air from 10 a.m.-12 p.m. Monday through Friday is, by O’Donnell’s definition, “…an exciting new adventure—two hours of talk show entertainment, without having to wear makeup. Perfection”  And perfection for us too — I love me some Rosie, but I suspect if we all had to look at that tan for ten hours a week, ratings would plummet.

She will take calls from listeners and celebs, talk about all things pop culture and entertainment for 120 minutes, and be paid obscene amounts of money for doing so.  In other words, the dream job.

I feel very relieved knowing that Fergie was going to a comedy club while wearing this thing — she was obviously wanting people to laugh at her.  She succeeded.

Fergster, along with her Black Eyed Pea band members went to Le Comedy Club in Paris yesterday to promote their new album, The E.N.D.

E! Online came up with the completely unoriginal idea to conduct a poll to see if they should ban news stories regarding a certain couple from their website.  Beet made that call last year, but whatever.

Anyway, the poll results are in and a resounding 94% voted in favor of no more news about them.  Of course, network executive Suzanne Kolb isn’t willing to draw the line at not reporting about them unless they die.  “If her album went to No. 1, that would be a newsworthy thing. If they were to become parents, we’d see that as worth noting. If something did happen to them, physically, we’d probably cover that.  But ultimately, we were looking at it more like avoiding stories about them walking down Robertson or going to dinner.  It will affect the various news shows on E! and it will affect online.”

The new Transformers‘ movie had the largest Wednesday opening — it played at 12:01 a.m. — of all time and the third largest opening of all midnight premiere movies.  The hot summer blockbuster that’s getting simply horrible reviews pulled down $16M.

Today I was reading sites dedicated to stupid Megan Fox quotes, and believe me…there are a lot of them (sites and quotes), and came across an extensive collection that Jezebel compiled.  Last fall, Fox said, “I’ve done one movie. And it’s not a movie I want to stand on as far as acting ability goes. I mean, I’m not going to win an Oscar anytime soon. I’m not Meryl Streep.”  I guess what I want to know is this:  Did anyone see this movie yet, and is she any better than the first Transformers?  Also, if anyone has a general movie review to offer, I’d be interested.  I’ve heard everything from “does live up to the hype, ” to “a horrible experience of unbearable length.”

I’m so relieved that Breckin Meyer is speaking out against couples skating.  No one should ever, ever have to endure such an injustice.

“I am crazy about children … I am an adoptive mother … I’ve already had this experience for two years,”

Gisele Bundchen, on a Brazilian television show talking about how prepared she is for motherhood.  Oh.  My.  God.  Can someone please explain to Gisele that she’s married to a guy who has a kid with another woman.  She’s not his (John Edward Thomas’) mother, she’s not his adoptive mother unless some legal transaction has occurred that we don’t know about.  She is a stepmother.

I’m a firm believer in “It takes a village,” but to call yourself the adoptive or biological mother of another woman’s child — a woman who is active in the raising of that child — is beyond disrespectful.
