This is celebrity mudslinging at its finest! Donald Trump continued his vicious attack on Rosie O’Donnell on Thursday by calling into local morning show "Good Day L.A.," and proclaiming that Barbara Walters hates Rosie as much as he does! The Donald fired off a litany of insults, personally attacking the "View" co-host by calling her a "bully," "a loser," "stupid," and even compared her to a "clam." Some of the Trump lowlights were: Regarding "The View’s" surge in ratings this year: "I bring it up because they talk about me. Ultimately, that show will fail because of Rosie," adding, "Barbara (Walters) made a mistake. She cannot stand Rosie O’Donnell." On Rosie’s intelligence: "She’s not very smart. I think Rosie is stupid." On Rosie’s appearance: "If you can look as ugly as she looks … I give her credit for having succeeding moderately." On, er, well, you figure it out: "She was like a little clam. A disgusting thought isn’t it, when you compare Rosie to a clam?" This is war!

Round one: Rosie vs The Donald |

Rosie O’Donnell had some fiery words for Donald Trump on The View Wednesday morning, calling him a "snake-oil salesman" following his announcement that he would not fire troubled Miss USA Tara Conner. After hearing about her comments, Trump fired back to PEOPLE, calling her "a woman out of control" and saying he planned to sue O’Donnell over her statements questioning his financial well-being. "You can’t make false statements," Trump tells PEOPLE exclusively. "Rosie will rue the words she said. I’ll most likely sue her for making those false statements – and it’ll be fun. Rosie’s a loser. A real loser. I look forward to taking lots of money from my nice fat little Rosie." The battle began on Wednesday’s show, when a peeved O’Donnell said: "(He) left the first wife – had an affair. (He) had kids both times, but he’s the moral compass for 20-year-olds in America. Donald, sit and spin, my friend." O’Donnell, who impersonated Trump by deepening her voice and flipping her hair to one side, aimed her criticism at his comment from the Tuesday press conference that, "I’ve always been a believer in second chances. Tara is good person. Tara has tried hard. Tara is going to be given a second chance." Conner, who just turned 21, will go to rehab but keep her crown, following reports of alleged drug and alcohol abuse. A grateful Conner apologized for her behavior at the press conference, and she thanked Trump for his compassion. But O’Donnell was not as touched. After repeatedly saying she "didn’t enjoy him," Rosie discussed Trump’s finances – saying he went bankrupt, which Trump denies – and likened him to the "snake-oil salesman on Little House On The Prairie. This is not a self-made man," O’Donnell said. And while O’Donnell and her View co-hosts discussed Conner’s alleged drug and alcohol abuse, Rosie was dismissive, saying, "She went out and she was partying – doing what Paris and Lindsay do." She also turned her wrath toward the Miss USA organization itself. "Miss America is the prestige," she said. "Miss USA is a different thing. It’s basically a model competition. Let’s be realistic." Trump’s response? "She talked about the Miss USA contest, which has terrific ratings on NBC. Miss America got thrown off of network television! It’s (on cable), where nobody watches it," he said, countering her statements. "And my father never gave me tons of money." He also thinks Rosie’s rant against him was personal. Trump says he once sarcastically chastised Rosie about her "failed magazine" and "failed talk show." Added The Donald: "I think she’s just terrible." For her part, O’Donnell seemed to realize she was in for a fight after she criticized Trump, adding: "Here comes the lawsuit. Get ready. This is going to be good."
People
This is going to get good because you know she is not going to give up and neither is he! And then they will kiss and make up just in time for him to guest on The View to promote the Apprentice!

Rosie pisses off the AAJA |

HEY, all you Chinese-speakers out there in TV land – Rosie O’Donnell thinks you should get a sense of humor! The Asian-American Journalists Association was fuming after O’Donnell went on "The View" Thursday and said that Danny DeVito’s drunk turn on the show days earlier was "international news! In China it was like, ‘Ching chong, ching-ching-chong, Danny DeVito!’ " In a statement yesterday, the AAJA said, "We consider this a mockery of the Chinese language and, in effect, a perpetration of stereotypes of Asian-Americans as foreigners or second-class citizens. The use of the distorted phrases is insulting to the Chinese and Chinese-Americans, and gives the impression that they are a group that is substandard to English-speaking people." But a rep for O’Donnell said, "She’s a comedian in addition to being a talk show co-host. I certainly hope that one day they will be able to grasp her humor."
Page Six
Actually the joke wasn’t funny, so I side with AAJA…if it were funny then I would’ve sided with her. LOL!

Rosie told The View she is going to Nip/Tuck? |

Is Rosie O’Donnell joining the cast of "Nip / Tuck" full time? That’s what Rosie said during a break on the set of "The View" today. She said she’s been offered the female lead of the show since Joley Richardson is leaving for a year. She said that she’d play the character of Dawn Budge, who was introduced in a guest role this past (the show’s 4th) season. Dawn would be the owner of the plastic surgery center and do things like "sneak Cher in the back door" and then hire paparazzi to take pictures. Rosie added that it would be a 15-week shoot in LA. She didn’t say if she was going to do it, but it sounded very much like she’s leaning towards it. No word on how this could affect her schedule with "The View," but Rosie has said that she’s only signed on to co-host for one season of Barbara Walters’ morning talk-fest.

I hope this is false because I hated her on Nip/Tuck.

Rosie O’Donnell vs Kelly Ripa over Clay Aiken |

If a guy who’s– how do put this– gayish but not openly gay, covers your mouth on daytime TV and you later scold him for it, could that be considered homophobic? According to Rosie O’Donnell, the answer is yes. Today on The View, Rosie called Kelly Ripa out for the way she reacted to Clay’s manhandling on Regis & Kelly. Ripa didn’t take to kindly to the insinuation that she’s a homophobe, so she called in to The View this morning to give her side of the story. Who’s side are you on: Rosie’s or Kelly’s? And is it even possible to be called a homophobe when the person you’re talking about isn’t even gay? Well, openly gay. Best Week Ever After watching the clip of Clay on Regis and Kelly, I have to tell you I side with him. She would not let him get a word in edgewise and he tried all he could to say anything. I have also read that she puts her hand over Regis’ mouth, but since I do not watch the show I have no way to know if that is true. Now when it comes to Rosie, I do think she jumped the gun by calling Kelly a homophobe. I also think that Kelly did not help her case by calling in. In fact I think it made her look worse. I have also read that Clay did appologise to her and you can see he was remorseful for his actons on the show…what more does she want him to do? Below is the clip of Clay Aiken co-hostin on Live with Regis and Kelly:
