In November, Rosie O'Donnell visited the Occupy Wall Street protests with a film crew at Zuccotti Park. Now, Us Weekly magazine is reporting Rosie didn't exactly act like the "99 percent" in proposing gay marriage, for the second time, to New York-based headhunter Michelle Rounds. "I proposed with my head down, hand out and a huge lump in my throat," O'Donnell told Us.

Jewelry expert Michael O'Connor told Us that the ring's estimated value is about $100,000. "Wow! This is a platinum ring that gets you noticed," O'Connor marveled. "The cushion cut center diamond is approximately 4 carats, and since it's set in platinum, the diamond will be held more securely. There may be additional significance to the fact that the center diamond is surrounded by 'rounds' set into a platinum collar."

News of the engagement broke Monday,

This story is stomach turning in so many ways.

Well isn’t that special.

[hinckley buzzard]

Wow. 100k for a snout ring? Geez.

[Ann Archy]

Wow. 100k for a snout ring? Geez.

The appropriate jewelry for a pig!

Michelle Rounds looks not guilty in my book. Why these reasonably attractive women go out with these horrible Bull Dykes is beyond me.....

[Colonel Kangaroo]

With stories like this, I can understand why Khomeini called the USA the Great Satan. I would too if I thought this disgusting story was indicative of the whole nation and not just the entertainment “elite”.

To each his own—as the old woman said when she kissed the cow.....

[DManA]

So we’re supposed to hate her because she’s rich but if we hate her we are homophobes. You would think a life of unprincipled floating would be easy.

[Tzimisce]

These people are running your country.

Have a nice day.

[driftdiver]

She may be halfway pretty but she is certainly whacked.

[BunnySlippers]

Why these reasonably attractive women go out with these horrible Bull Dykes is beyond me....

Financial security down the road. They pervert themselves for a few years. Pop out one or two babies. Then divorce.

Lifetime support.

[UCANSEE2]

GAG ME!!!!

If you insist.

[synbad600]

Wait a few years and she if she hasn’t herself turned more ‘bull’.

[al baby]

Money!!!!!!!!!

[Iron Munro]

To each his own — as the old woman said when she kissed the cow.....

Or, in Rosie's case, "To each it's own."
(And the young woman will be kissing the bull, not the cow.)

Behind that semi-cute face there is ...well, nothing.

[ScottinSacto]

That is one of the foulest and funniest things I’ve seen. Put THAT on trial in NYC! Guilty!!!
