Roseanne Barr Says She Thought Valerie Jarrett Was White in New Video
Roseanne Barr has finally appeared on camera to explain that racist Valerie Jarrett tweet.
In a clip released on her YouTube account on Friday, the disgraced comedian is seen smoking a cigarette while a producer tries to coach her into giving the interview like a presidential address. Frustrated, she tells him that she’s trying to talk about the Iran deal and Jarrett, thought he producer replies that she’s “told [him] this three different times.”
Barr eventually looks at the camera and yells, “I thought the bitch was white!” in regards to Jarrett.
Barr had been fired from her ABC sitcom, the revived “Roseanne,” in May after she in a tweet described Jarrett as “Muslim brotherhood & Planet of the apes had a baby.”
