Here’s everything you missed in entertainment yesterday and others that unravelled while you slept – and are still buzzing today.
Roseanne Barr reacts ‘heavily’ to The Conners
Her reaction came Tuesday after a derivation of her cancelled Roseanne reboot premiered without the franchise’s former star.
In the premiere, the Conner family addressed Barr’s absence in the opening scene. As the family gathered in the kitchen mourning the loss of “Granny Rose” three weeks after her death, a concerned Jackie (Laurie Metcalf) asked to speak to Dan (John Goodman) alone outside. While the family initially thought she suffered a heart attack in her sleep, they find out Roseanne died of an opiate overdose.
“I AIN’T DEAD, BITCHES!!!!” she tweeted.
I AIN’T DEAD, BITCHES!!!!

In May, Barr wrote a racist, now-deleted post about Barack Obama‘s former adviser Valerie Jarrett. Barr tweeted, “Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj.”
After that, ABC stopped the revival of Roseanne (the no. 1 scripted series of the season). “Roseanne’s Twitter statement is abhorrent, repugnant and inconsistent with our values, and we have decided to cancel her show,” president of ABC Entertainment, Channing Dungey said in a statement.
