Rosie O'Donnell on Susan Boyle: 'Shrek comes to life'

Categories: Television

Entertainer Rosie O’Donnell was among the millions of Americans who were blown away by Susan Boyle’s performance at Britain’s Got Talent. Interviewed while showcasing her artwork at a Florida gallery on Sunday, O’Donnell told People the world should "enjoy (Boyle’s performance) for what it was." "Here is this freaky miss, a fat, ugly girl, like Shrek comes to life, directing energy towards her soul," O’Donnell told the magazine. "This was so rare … something authentic in a world that is usually manufactured. It was a perfect moment which will never happen again."

    I’m not sure that calling Ms. Boyle “fat” and “ugly” is really the right mindset. I know there was a compliment somewhere in there, but it was a very backhanded compliment, and I think we all could do without that kind of negativity. Poor Susan Boyle. How awful she must feel reading things like that.

  • Jeff

    Rosie is tacky as always.
    Susan has an amazing voice and an unconventional appearance in a world which seems to believe only people who look like Jessica Simpson or Britney are capable of singing.
    But I would hardly call her freaky or ugly and I would especially refrain from such comments if I looked like Rosie.

    How terribly rude. I’m not sure how comparing Susan Boyle to a monster is constructive. I thought the whole point was beauty isn’t about just looks.
    I don’t think Susan Boyle is superficially ugly, either. Her face lights up when she smiles.

  • Lori

    Rosie didn’t say it. Read her blog. Another fabricated story by EW.

  • Pete

    True that, I totally agree with Rosie!

  • veron

    Rosie O’Donnel comment is describing her own self. Remember whatever your heart is full of Your own mouth speaks. Susan Boyle is not ugly, freaky or fat. Rosie is.. the difference is Susan is light as a feather as she sang her dream that was fulfilled instantly.

    What Rosie said was mean spirited and ugly. What someone looks like has nothing to do with their abilities, what they carry inside. What a disappointment Rosie is particulraly is she is teaching this rude, crude, insensitivity to her children. Rosie is more damaged from losing her mother at an early age than I ever could have imagined. Get some help and allow others to have their moment to shine

  • Art

    Rosie: You are fat, ugly and disgusting!
    Susan B. is an Angel, inspired by music and her mother. Go away Rosie.

  • ED

    Yeah Rosie is a fat pig and so annoying. She’s just jealous her 15 mins is up. As for Susan, her star is just starting to shine and with that kind of natural talent it will shine for a long time.

  • Belle

    Isn’t that a bit harsh Rosie?

  • sara

    Rosie, please go find yourself a soul.
