The View through Rosie’s Colored Glasses…

I am sick today and decided to lie on the couch, veg out and watch some T.V.

“The View” touched on a number of interesting subjects today. From Madonna’s hanging on a cross scandal, to Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez calling Bush "The Devil” at The United Nations, to Usher being on Broadway, it was a well-rounded show.

The broad shouldered Rosie stands out like a sore thumb next to her slim, well-coiffed counter parts and monopolizes most of the show with her loud interjections and abrasive opinions. The name of the show should really be changed to “The Rosie O’Donnell Show” as opposed to “The View” because that is just what it was. I would have liked to have heard everyone’s opinions, but when anyone on the panel speaks, Rosie raises her voice 3 octaves above theirs in order to dominate the conversation. In fact, I found myself talking to my television and telling her to shut her big mouth roughly 4 times.

It doesn’t seem as though Rosie is held to the same standards (or any standards whatsoever) as her 3 glitz and glamour cohorts when it comes to appearance, hygiene and social graces.

Rosie sits on the far left of the well dressed crew with slumping posture, everywhere hair, dark, muted make-up and a drab, asexual wardrobe paired with bright clown-red clogs with white socks. The 3 women sitting next to her are wearing stylishly feminine apparel (showing a touch of cleavage, GASP!) with shiny bobbles, and their hair and make-up are perfect.

I’m all for individuality, you don’t have to look like the Belle of the ball 24-7, but Rosie, you’re on television, viewers are watching your every move and hearing your every word, (literally) how about exhibiting some pride? I’m pretty sure that ABC has the money to afford you make-up artists, hair stylists and even wardrobe consultants; you don’t have to walk around looking like you just rolled out of bed.

P.S. Rosie, there are many Plus-Size boutiques, shops and websites that would happily provide you with a cute wardrobe complimentary if you’d just mention their names in the credits, and let’s face it, accessories always fit.
