Rosie O’Donnell, Michelle Rounds Welcome Daughter!

Rosie O’Donnell welcomed a baby girl with wife Michelle Rounds, she announced today. “We are thrilled to announce the arrival of our daughter Dakota,” O’Donnell shared. Check out the snapshot of herself, Rounds, and their little bundle of joy below … “With love and thanks – AMEN,” she added, with no other details re: Dakota. Dakota is O’Donnell’s fifth child; the former talk show host also shares kids Parker, Chelsea, Blake, and Vivienne with ex-wife Kelli Carpenter. O’Donnell and Rounds announced their engagement in December 2011. They married six months later after Rounds was diagnosed with desmoid tumors, a rare, cancer-like disease. O’Donnell had a heart attack in 2012 as well. Both are on the mend now and hope to have a wedding in 2013. “When we are both well enough, [we] will finally have the wedding of our dreams surrounded by those we cherish,” the former View co-host blogged. “[We are] thankful for the love and support so many have given us.” Congratulations to the happy and growing family!

Cutting for Bieber: Exposed as 4Chan Hoax!

You can relax now, Miley Cyrus . We’ve all been had. In light of the Justin Bieber pot smoking scandal, a Twitter campaign titled “Cutting for Bieber” had allegedly cropped up, with fans expressing their disappointment in the singer by self-mutilating. Among other stars, Cyrus has spoken out against the troubling movement. But new reports confirm this trend was nothing but a hoax created by 4Chan , a social media site with a history of pranks. 4Chan is also responsible for a fake Morgan Freeman diatribe against the media, as well as the rumor in October that Bieber had cancer. So well played, 4Chan. Except for the part where you exploited a legitimate illness and spread the idea of self-injury as a method of expression.

Redskins Name Change: Proposed by Mayor Vincent Gray

With the Washington Redskins enjoying success for the first time in decades, there’s been talk in the nation’s capital of bringing the team’s home field back to D.C., as opposed to its current location in Maryland. But Mayor Vincent Gray has a condition if such a transfer were to take place: The team’s name will need to change. “I think it has become a lightning rod, and I would love to be able to sit down with the team… and see if a change should be made,” Gray said of the moniker many find offensive to Native Americans. “There’s a precedent for this, and I think there needs to be a dispassionate discussion about this, and do the right thing.” It’s true that many college mascots have acknowledged the insensitive nature of their mascots and made a change. Formerly Red Raiders, Colgate University athletes are now simply “Raiders.” But with fans of the squad arguing over the recent Robert Griffin III injury , do they really need another topic to debate? What do you think? Should the name “Redskins” be changed?   Yes, it’s offensive! No, who cares?!? View Poll »
