Well, damn! As if pissing off ABC, her former castmates, Hulu, and TV Land wasn’t enough (click here to read more), embattled comedienne Roseanne Barr can now add Sanofi – the creator of the popular sleeping drug Ambien – to her list of offended.
Taking to Twitter after her ongoing backlash reached a boiling point (despite previously promising to leave the social media platform), the actress issued another apology while blaming her racist behavior on the drug.
“…guys I did something unforgiveable so do not defend me. It was 2 in the morning and I was ambien tweeting — it was memorial day too — i went 2 far & do not want it defended — it was egregious Indefensible. I made a mistake I wish I hadn’t but…don’t defend it please.”“Not giving excuses for what I did(tweeted) but I’ve done weird stuff while on ambien — cracked eggs on the wall at 2am etc.”
Needless to say, Ambien makers weren’t exactly appreciative of the implied diss. Their response inside:
Shonda Rhimes:
lmao savage. they basically told her nice try bishh, sit your fat racist ass down lmfaooooo
You would think she would go hide somewhere for a few days but nahhh she’s still here stupid tweeting. Trump has really emboldened the racists for sure
donald trump gets compared to an orangutan all the time.. Nothing is said.. Until its a black person gets compared an animal, and then its so bad… Eye rolls.
Wanda stakes called donald trump an orangutan, and then she quit the show after the comment this women made The hypocrisy lol.
I haven’t heard about Wanda, but I know Bill Maher said it. Regardless, it’s not the same thing. Calling that man an orangutan isn’t racially motivated and it’s not connected to images that are part of a long and painful history of racial oppression. It’s not nice, but it’s not racism.
