Rosie O’Donnell is saying she’s sorry in a blog.
The comedian recently made headlines when she took pot shots at Kirstie Alley, accusing the “Fat Actress” star of lying about her weight. “earlier this evening kirstie alley told matt lauer that her fattest was 201,” O’Donnell wrote on her Web site. “I almost choked on my yodel I am 220 fess up kirstie--201 my [bleep] i started to fume.”
O’Donnell apparently apologized in a phone conversation with Kirstie, and in a more recent Web entry writes, in free verse style, “the phone/kirstie w/ hurt feelings/i am sorry/4 that. . . . . never been joan [Rivers, presumably] kickin people when they are down/too ez - not me/u r not the target.”
In another entry, O’Donnell tells us more than even some of her most ardent fans might want to know. While describing how she and some friends were laughing up a storm when a pregnant friend broke a chair, she reveals, “We laughed until tears came out of our eyes and our faces were sweaty and red, and I thought I would pee my pants. I squeezed my thighs as tightly as I could then shoved my hand between my legs as if — to stop that tiny trickle of tinkle. Yes I am now officially at the age where I need a depends. Get me laughing and I am leaking.”
