Jahero Tribute

JaHeRo is a nickname for the morning video blogs posted by Rosie O'Donnell on her website during part of her tenure on The View. O'Donnell, her producer Janette Barber, and her makeup artist Helene Macaulay created unscripted video blogs Monday through Thursday prior to taping, during which they answered user-submitted questions.

I miss the JaHeRo video blogs. They had something magical and often made you feel as if you were right there with them. I went through all the JaHeRo videos and chose some of the best frames. This is my tribute to Rosie, Helene and Janette. I hope you enjoy it.

Rosie O'Donnell on Million Dollar Password

Rosie O'Donnell was spectacular on Million Dollar Password. She and contestant Dante were definitely 'in the zone'. When he reached the $50,000 rank and asked Rosie what to do..her advice to him was..."That's a lot of money. I'm going to give you my best but that's 50 grand...you think about your life." Go Rosie!! You were great.

UPDATE: Sadly, this video has been deleted by CBS. Shame on them!

Rosie O'Donnell Interview with Howard Stern

Known as the 'Shock Jock' of talk radio, Howard Stern lived up to his moniker on Tuesday, June 3, 2008 when he interviewed Rosie O'Donnell. Never one to sugar coat words, he asked the questions that many would have loved to ask. It could have been called..."Everything You Always Wanted To Know About Rosie....But Were Too Polite To Ask." Rosie didn't falter with her answers. She delivered! The entire interview is in five parts, each one about 10 minutes long, and can be heard here.
UPDATE: The 'Day After' Comments on Rosie Odonnell / Howard Stern Interview can be heard here.

Rosie Answered Me

For those who don't already know, I am a HUGE fan of Rosie O'Donnell and have been for many years. She is my stranger / friend. Of course, the friendship is all in my head. I like to think that she reads all my comments I submit to her blog in the Q&A section. However, she gets so many, it's likely that I get 'flushed' on a regular basis.

On May 27th (last comment - bottom of page!) .... Rosie not only saw me ... she answered me! And, I got more than a one word answer. People tell me she put it last so that her readers would see it and say....hmmm, wonder what that's all about? Or, who is this sissorwizard person. Sounds just like something Rosie would do. Whatever the case may be...I'm grateful. It was more than just a brief connection....it was validation.

Thank you Rosie.
