Chelsea Handler Talks Abortion, Penises with Rosie O'Donnell
For Chelsea Handler, no topic is ever off limits. To wit:
She appeared yesterday on The Rosie Show and opened up about two personal topics:
- The abortion Handler had when she was 16, saying she has "no regrets" about her decision now because "I wouldn't be a good mother" and adding overall: "You should do whatever you want with your body and you shouldn't let anyone tell you what to do."
- The size of 50 Cent's penis, following this comedian's fling with the rapper. Is it really that big?

Rosie O'Donnell Assails David Letterman as "Anti-Gay"
The feud between Rosie O'Donnell and David Letterman has turned ugly quickly. This is where it stands and how it developed:
A week ago, following the announcement that Rosie was engaged to Michelle Rounds, Letterman mocked the speed of this decision during his show's monologue, saying: "The woman she is marrying, her fiancee, was driving... and her car broke down. And guess what happened? Rosie pulls up right behind her in her tow truck."
O'Donnell replied a few days later, addressing Letterman during her OWN talk show with:
"I don't remember making fun of you when you had sex with all your interns, Dave. I didn't do that. I didn't make fun of your rampant, throbbing heterosexuality, did I Dave?"
Rosie then came up with the Top Five Reasons She Refuses to Appear on the Late Show (above), which included: "Not only do you appear to be anti-gay, you're anti-tow trucker."
Low blow? Accurate blow? Weigh in now: Whose side are you on in this feud?

Rosie O'Donnell Speaks on Michelle Rounds Engagement: Old News!
Congratulations are still very much in order to Rosie O'Donnell and fiancee Michelle Rounds, but the talk show host told her studio audience today that the couple has been engaged for weeks.
She merely chose last Friday to go public with the good news.
"Michelle said to me a few months ago, when we got engaged, she said, 'How come you didn't say it on your show?' And I was like, 'Honey, I don't know how.' I didn't know how to say it," O'Donnell said yesterday.
Joking about a certain Two and a Half Men star, Rosie added about her reticence to talk openly about Rounds:
"You don't want to become one of those celebrities that talks about their relationship ad nauseum and makes it into a fairy-tale thing. And then they go and have an affair with somebody. I don't want to say any names."
Don't worry. We'll do it for you.

Rosie O'Donnell Defends Chris Brown, Criticizes Robin Roberts, Implies Racism at Work
Looks like Chris Brown has an unlikely ally in the celebrity world: Rosie O’Donnell.
The outspoken talk show host said on her radio show Friday that Chris' detractors, along with Good Morning America's Robin Roberts, may be guilty of racism.
That's because, O'Donnell, says, people criticized Brown's window-breaking tantrum on GMA more than, she argues, the equivalent by white stars is lambasted.
“I just don’t know why this kid seems to be held to a different standard than anyone else,” O’Donnell tells executive producer Janette Barber on the program.
Asked if the reaction, which Rosie addressed for the first time because she had been on vacation, was racially based, O'Donnell replied, “I totally think [it] is.”
“I also think it’s why he felt he was safer with Robin Roberts.”
O’Donnell doesn’t flesh out this point at all other than later adding that she felt “badly” for Chris Brown and “mildly angry” at Roberts while the interview.
Given the context, though, it wouldn’t be amiss to interpret it as an accusation of some sort of racial betrayal on Roberts’ part not to go easier on Brown.
Rosie O'Donnell and Tracy Kachtick-Anders: It's Over!
Rosie O'Donnell is a single woman again.
An insider confirms to The New York Post that the actress/comedian has split from Tracy Kachtick-Anders after approximately one year of dating. The two were first seen holding hands in Miami in December 2009. Combined, they had 10 kids, prompting Rosie to refer to their brood as the "Gay-dy Bunch."
Rosie O'Donnell is now fielding offers for a new girlfriend.
"They have definitely split up, but it is very complicated because their kids are very close," says the newspaper's source. "They still spend a lot of time together."
Kachtick-Anders runs Open Arms Campaign, a nonprofit organization that helps recruit adoptive families in the LGBT community. O'Donnell, meanwhile, can see where Billy Ray Cyrus is coming from.
Rosie O'Donnell Sort of Defends Billy Ray Cyrus
Billy Ray Cyrus may have come out and directly blamed his daughter's involvement in show business for recent troubles, but Rosie O'Donnell doesn't think he meant it.
Asked about the country singer's rant to GQ this month, in which he said Hannah Montana "destroyed my family," Rosie told Access Hollywood that Cyrus was just being a concerned parent.
“I think he’s doing what a lot of us are doing that have teenagers, including me, [saying], ‘What the hell is going on here? I thought I was in control of this place and now the kids are acting out. The animals are ruining the zoo!’”
Does O'Donnell think Hollywood is responsible for Miley's behavior? No. It's just a teenager acting like a teenager.
“A 16 or 18-year-old girl is going to separate from the parents no matter what. They’re going to smoke some salvia... they’re going to drink some beer. This is what happens when kids are 18 and they’re trying to separate."
Rosie O'Donnell: Teen Mom Sends Positive Message
Teen Mom has plenty of critics. Rosie O'Donnell? Not one of them.
At the Sundance Film Fest in Park City, Utah, the mom of four said that she and her teenage daughter recently checked out the controversial MTV hit.
"I have to say it's interesting," O'Donnell said, explaining a personal reason for tuning in. "My daughter is 13. I watch with her. I think the fantasy for adopted children is to have a baby of their own, then keep it, which their mother did not."

Added the comic: "The rate of teenage pregnancy is up, so when my daughter saw that [Teen Mom 2] was on the air, I said 'Well, let's watch it.'"
"At the end of almost every episode the mothers say they wish they used protection or waited, 'My whole life is over,' or 'I can't live this way.'"
"I think that sends out a positive message."
