Book Description
Sometimes funny, sometimes heartbreaking, and always brutally honest, this is Rosie O'Donnell's surprising account of the pain, regret, and euphoria involved in withdrawing from celebrity life--and the terrifying dangers of relapsing into the spotlight.


CELEBRITY DETOX is Rosie's story of the years after she walked away from her top-rated TV show in 2002, and her reasons for going back on the air in 2006. In it, she takes you inside the world of talk show TV, speaking candidly about the conflicts and challenges she faced as cohost on ABC's The View. Along the way Rosie shows us how fame becomes addiction and explores whether or not it's possible for an addict to safely, and sanely, return to the spotlight.


Chronicling the ups and downs of "the fame game," Rosie O'Donnell illuminates not only what it's like to be a celebrity, but also what it's like to be a mother, a daughter, a leader, a friend, a sister, a wife...in short, a human being.

I'll definitely be buying this. I've adored her since before her talk show began and now I'm basically addicted to her blog/vids. Too many people dismiss her because of the way she comes across, but her views are in line with my own. Minus the sexual attraction to women and the need for lots of children.

Love Rosie! I have the book on order as well. Totally by accident I ended up in the audience at her show when I was on vacation in New York in 99. Hope she returns to her own show on TV soon.

I'll be picking it up eventually - not when it first comes out - because it'll be more than I'm willing to pay - but when that first copy appears at the used book store I frequent I'll be getting it. I do enjoy Rosie!
