Rosie O'Donnell

Rosie O'Donnell earned my respect the hard way: five consecutive Daytime Emmys for hosting is a feat of daily consistency that almost nobody in television matches. What I find most interesting is her refusal to stay in one lane — stand-up roots, film and voice work in Tarzan, books, and early adoption of blogging when most celebrities ignored the internet. She has always seemed allergic to playing it safe, and that candor has cost her at times, but it is also exactly why audiences trust her. To me she represents the talk-show host as a genuine personality rather than a polished product.
