Elisabeth Hasselbeck 'Started Praying' After Learning of Rosie O'Donnell's 'Disturbing' Crush
People ^ | 3/26/2019 | Dave Quinn

Elisabeth Hasselbeck says she’s praying for former View cohost Rosie O’Donnell after hearing that the comedian once had “a little bit of a crush” on her.(snip) Portions of O’Donnell’s interview were published Monday by Variety in an excerpt of Setoodeh’s book.

In them, O’Donnell balked at rumors that she and Hasselbeck were enemies on the ABC daytime show, explaining that she “loved” Hasselbeck and had “a little bit of a crush” on her. Though O’Donnell stressed the crush wasn’t sexual, she said there was “underlying lesbian tones on both [of their] parts,” pointing to Hasselbeck’s time as MVP of a Division 1 softball team.

“There are not many, in my life, girls with such athletic talent on sports teams that are traditionally male that aren’t at least a little bit gay,” O’Donnell said.

Reading O’Donnell’s words upset Hasselbeck. To process her feelings, the mother of three said she turned to prayer.

“I’ll be very honest. I read it and I immediately started praying. Because I’m like, ‘How am I going to handle this?’ ” Hasselbeck said on Fox on Friends, explaining that she didn’t want to fight with O’Donnell as the two had infamously done on The View.

“In my old self, [this] would be another split-screen moment. But now I really feel like by God’s grace, I just started praying — and I pray now the Holy Spirit gives me the words to articulate this — but I think it can be addressed with both truth and grace.”(snip) She told Fox & Friends that she hopes to explain to O’Donnell how the words hurt her, and how “casting a stereotype on female athletes…. that all female athletes are a little bit gay” was “an unfair stereotype and it seems selfish in a way and I think that it’s untrue.”

Wow. Sounds like Rosie’s Jimmy the Greek moment.

He got fired, she’ll likely get the usual LibPass.

I’d be sacrificing a lamb on a mountain top, prostrating myself praying for forgiveness from whatever sin I committed to have reaped such punishment.

Believing that someone is a lesbian simply because they play sports? That's futt'up... and a little heterophobicTM

I've dated a few athletic girls (years ago). They've said there were traditionally "gay" teams and "straight" teams.
The straight girls loved to compete but didn't really like to be around the lesbians, (for several reasons) - so they were friendly on the fields (or courts), but didn't socialize with them outside of competition.

Yet one more example of a stereotype that would be career-ending if it were put forward by a conservative. And yet, Rosie can make this statement to make insinuations about the sexuality of another without any consequences.

I agree. Could never figure out why she would be a part of a show that does nothing but bring out anger each day.

Is Abby Huntsman still on that show? It’s as if she disappeared from television altogether after her time with FNC.

Does “crush” refer to sexual attraction or what happens to you if Rosie leans against you or falls on you?

Yeah In this case I was thinking crush had more seismic implication then sexual!

Good Christians girls don’t show so much cleavage, especially when the lesbo that wants to munch on her is only a couple of chairs away.

Rosie’s gaydar couldn’t have been wrong. Homosexuals have said that they absolutely aren’t attracted to heterosexuals.

And meanwhile if a male co-worker (who has seniority) has a “crush” on a female staff member, we are told that it is a HOSTILE work environment.

#MeToo

Stereotypical...
