Rosie Gives Up Hooch

We never took Rosie O’Donnell as a booze hound, but apparently the lesbian comedienne thinks otherwise. She admitted to a fan recently that she’s been drinking too much and hopes to stop – and lose weight as a result: “[O’Donnell] made the confession on her blog after telling one fan she’d shed pounds by giving up beer… [Another fan asked] “So, Rosie, alcoholic or not? Just spit it out!…What led to you stopping the beer? You’ll only help someone else.” To which O’Donnell admitted: ” ‘Cause I was drinking too much, ’cause I didn’t want to any more, ’cause it is hard to lose weight when drinking, ’cause I can never have only one.” [Page Six]
