THIS BOOK IS A PIECE OF TRASH
THIS is by far the worst book ever written on a person. If any of you are interested on the chapter on Rosie being gay don't buy the book Here are there reasons George says :

Owns two motor cycles

Only wears make-up onstage

Doesn't shave her legs.

Or chin

Doesn't wear dresses or much jewelery

Still a self-confessed jock

Not afraid of power tools.

And lots more stupid reasons. I hated this book in fact don't buy it just look on the internet for all the information you need. Because acording to his bibliography that's where he got most of the information

LOTS OF INSIDE INFO FOR FANS
I thoroughly enjoyed this sensitive portrait of my favorite star. And unlike another reader, I thought the chapter on her sexuality was deftly handled. I also liked the way the authors addressed other personal issues, like her family and her struggle with her weight. I felt like the authors were NOT out to do some quick hatchet job on her. They really got the tone of her TV show. Highly recommended by a HUGE ROSIE FAN.

Fans of Rosie will enjoy this book.

I had a fun read of this excellent look into the life and times of Rosie O'Donnell. It's fairly complete, but a bit opinionated at times. The biographers seem to believe they live in Rosie's mind.

The writing I found to be a little sloppy at times -- I had to skip back a page a few times and re-read a passage to figure out what Mair and Green were trying to say...

The book contains a great deal of info on the movies Rosie has made, and on the Rosie O'Donnell Show itself, and even some info on Rosie's on-line activities.

I really enjoyed the colour photographs (8 pages of them), but I found the cover art left something to be desired.

Fans of Rosie (like myself) will enjoy this book.
