OlderRosie O’Donnell is Parker Proud
Rosie O’Donnell treats her son Parker, who turns 14 next Monday, to Z100’s Zootopia 2009 concert at the Izod Center on Saturday (May 16) in East Rutherford, NJ.
On April 27, JustJared.com had the pleasure of attending Rosie’s Broadway Kids “Passing It On” benefit performance held at NYC’s New World Stages. The show included performances by Brian Stokes Mitchell, Chris Mann, Orfeh, Debra Barsha, and of course RBK. One stand-out performance was when the kids sang and changed up the lyrics to Katy Perry’s “I Kissed A Girl” and Lady Gaga’s “Poker Face.”
In between all of the acts, video clips were shown including one of Clay Aiken mentoring the kids at Rosie’s Maravel Arts Center, a four-story arts school in NYC.
During the show, Rosie did a little stand-up comedy, where she admitted it was the first time she ever wore Spanx and wished it had a hole for her to pee in. Hah!
By show’s end, Rosie thanked special guest Star Jones and partner Kelli Carpenter. Rosie even called out her son Parker, saying, “I’m your mommy. Look how handsome he is, everyone. It’s all in the genes.” (He’s adopted.)

Rosie is truly one of the nastiest people. I saw her at the Target in Westchester. Let me tell you, she is even uglier in person. She walks with terrible posture slung over like an ape.
All the people were laughing at her behind her back.
Not one person said hi to her.
But, when she walked by people laughed and made moo noises.
I felt bad for her actually.
Three words…FAT GAY PIG!
Three words…..FAT GAY PIG!!!
O’Donnell and partner Kelli by all accounts are well-respected as parents. People who have an objection because they are gay parents ought to take a chill pill. When was the last time any of you adopted a child or even made a financial gift to a child in foster care or a group home? People writing hateful comments because O’Donnell is overweight ought to get a life. I admire O’Donnell for her willingness to be outspoken about herself and her life and for her obvious deep love for and devotion to her family.
Hey missy, I thank God every day for making me gay. I also thank him for idiots like you who think he made a mistake. It makes me realize how much better off I am. You make nasty comments about gay people and other religions that aren’t yours…what’s the word for that? Anyone? Oh yeah, “christians.”

How pathetic you are for making fun of people! Are you perfect? People who make fun of others are very insecure & hate themselves! I bet you don’t look like a beautiful swan! Truely pathetic losers who make fun of others because of your own insecurities! Total losers! No excuse for making fun of Rosie at a store!
Leave Rosie alone! I don’t care much about her! However, she loves her family and you have no right to be so nasty!
Parker is a lucky boy to have two loving parents. They seem like a very supportive family and in the end love is all that matters. To all the posters making hateful comments on here, karma will come knocking at your door—-soon.
what’s wrong w/ you people. this boy has people in his life who loves/care for him. to say things like ‘i hope this boy’s life is gay’ is so irrelevant.
*isn’t gay
I love the tolerant liberals here. Such good hatemongers. Typical liberals, destroy anyone who does not goose step to your beliefs.
@LogicalThinking: is your name a joke? if you had any kind of logical thought process whatsoever you would realize how stupid this comment is
@LogicalThinking:
your comment is hateful! Take a look in the mirror! The truth hurts!
I know that Rosie has done more for those children less fortunate. She is a huge advocate for foster children. I am straight and have raised children and think she is a wonderful role model. Love. Isn’t that the most important thing parents can give their children. Her children have many straight male men in their life. For the haters maybe you could find happiness helping a child instead of insulting those who do. As a previous blogger said Karma. In my life time I have seen it happen over and over to people so be careful.
Woah woah woah..
@Jeg:
Who said women are beaten and stoned to death in Muslim countries?! I’m Kuwaiti, living in Kuwait, where the majority is Muslim.. We are NOT beaten and stoned, I mean where the f do you get your information from?
Women here are educated, working sisters/daughters/wives/mothers who are independent and can sure as hell speak their minds! We just recently had 4 amazing women elected to parliament (Salwa Al-Jassar, Aseel Al-Awadhi, Masooma Al-Mubarak & Rola Dashti.. Google it!)…
We may have different ideals and traditions than people in the US and other parts of the world, but that does not make us weak animals that allow ANYBODY to beat us..
Our men are understanding and can have an intelligent conversation if something’s wrong, they don’t just beat whoever opposes them. We are allowed to wear whatever we want, say whatever we want and learn from each other, men and women alike..
So please educate yourself before calling me, a proud Muslim woman, somebody who even allows anyone to touch her or stop her from being who she is!
And if the media is your reference, then you should be able to allow me to think that all American women are exactly like Paris Hilton, Britney Spears and Tara Reid, basically train-wrecks that can’t be allowed to be anywhere near children or living creatures, and all men are like Chris Brown (a women beater), Spencer Pratt (a douche) and John Mayer (don’t even let me go there lol)..
But because I bother to actually read and meet people from as many nationalities as possible, I don’t let those idiots affect from the media my way of thinking and I encourage and love people such as Sandra Bullock (celebrity), Barack Obama (politician), Dan Brown (writer) and real American friends of mine who’re great mothers, educators and friends..
So once again, EDUCATE YOURSELF and don’t ASSUME.. because when you do, you make an ASS out of U and ME…
*takes a deep breath* End of rant.
woah! he looks a lot like ben mackenzie, “ryan” from the OC… no?
I live in Toronto and I know of a few kids who are being raised by gay parents and they are very happy, normal families. I also know of kids being raised by a opposite sex parents who are miserable. I am shocked at the amount of hate in this group.
@KElso:
Do your kids a favor and go homo! Go to school! Get with Daisy and learn something.
Rosie and Kelly are great parents. To the poster that said she beats her kids HOW DARE YOU, like you know anything about their lives. These are happy, well adjusted children. I wish every child could have the love and support they get.
@calvin:
Where is the logic of LogicalThinking? well if nature would have intended two women or two men to be parents, they would without “help”. Sorry that nature didn’t allow lesbians and gays to be parents, that’s reality, get used to it. Children need a loving, committed father and mother. As nature intended. But keep the faith, we might evolve to asexual reproduction lol
@Josh:
Ummm…not all Christians are judgmental just as not all Muslims are violent just as not all gays are perverts. Umbrella statements are useless.
Rosie’s son is cute. And yes, he totally looks like a young Benjamin McKenzie.
@Nixx: Thank you, Nixx! :D
In my opinion the comments people have left are a bit negative. Live and let live.
How many more years will she be using the same spanx joke? This is going on the 3rd year and she is still saying “it’s my first time wearing them.”
Her jokes are as stale as her career.
