Roseanne Barr Goes On Twitter Rant, Attacks Hollywood, Admits To 'Mental Health Issues'

Roseanne Barr is less than happy with Hollywood and her place in it and she has taken to Twitter to vent. The 61-year-old went on a lengthy tirade last night, which seems to have been prompted by a failed attempt to develop a new TV show.



Among other things, Barr wrote to her over 220,000 followers (warning: strong language ahead):

the women in hollywood cannot fall to their knees to suck dick fast enough.

I'm never going to work in television again. I'm never going to even attempt it. I feel as if I've been insulted/assaulted for over a year.

actually, for many years-from my first reality show to my second and two failed development deals. Don't call me-I won't call you. I'm gone.

Not ONE word remained of any ideas I had. I was constantly 'corrected' as if I had no track record whatsoever. I'm enraged over all of it.

I don't have the emotional stability to withstand being manipulated and lied to anymore-now that I'm old.

newsflash: Yes, I do have mental health issues. Decent ppl refrain from bullying, lying to, manipulating & taking advantage of ppl like me.

one thing I've learned in Hollywood-every time someone tells me I'm a genius-tht means I am going to get fucked.

Then this morning, the TV personality admitted:

anyway, no more drunk tweeting late at night for me!

Just this weekend, the New York Times published a joint interview with Roseanne and Mindy Kaling in its style section. In it, Barr says: "I have a lucky life. Yeah, I’m content. I like content better than happy, for sure."
