Roseanne Barr, a former TV star, is now in her seventies, and she is routinely body-shamed on social media. Regardless, her long-term partner still loves her despite her appearance.
The celebrated actress has accepted her age, but social media trolls have mocked her appearance, called her names, and said she is elderly.
Twitter users have gone to the medium in the past to criticize Barr’s looks and indiscretions. “Roseanne Barr is a self-centered, washed-up old bird who is blatantly ra*ist.” She is a product of an America that should be forgotten forever. “Someone tweeted about it.
Another person called the comic “crazy old” and said he “ought to be ignored.” “When I call Roseanne Barr a big pig, I’ll just blame Ambien,” commented a third reviewer.
Barr has attempted to avoid the spotlight since her May 2018 debacle, in which she tweeted and later deleted a racist message about former Barack Obama aide Valerie Jarrett.
Following the criticism, Barr defended herself, stating she sent the tweet while on Ambien and had no idea Jarrett was black.
Since then, the “Roseanne” alum has made a social media comeback, sharing an Instagram image in March 2021. The producer posted a selfie of herself outside her Hawaii house, dressed in a red leopard print outfit and striking a pose. She titled it:
“I’m feeling better and looking better.”
Barr has gone through a significant metamorphosis, including changing haircuts and dying her hair blonde. She wore a black jumpsuit with the then-popular teased hair fashion of the 1980s to the American Comedy Awards in 1987.
She continued to experiment with her hair, sporting a mullet on the set of “Roseanne” in 1990. Barr wore bangs and a bow on her head for the show’s Season 6 photo shoot in 1994.
For the Lane Bryant Fashion Show in 2001, the Utah native donned a haircut and a leopard print coat. Then, in 2005, she discarded her dark-colored hair for a new blonde haircut for the “Roseanne” DVD launch party.
Barr began to embrace her natural gray hair on the red carpet at the TV Land Awards in 2008, keeping up with the aging process. In 2014, the author came out on another red carpet occasion with curls in her hair and leopard gloves to complement her all-black ensemble.
Barr chose an old Hollywood-inspired appearance for a charity event in 2015, having her blonde hair chopped short and pinned back.
The Emmy Award winner wore a long black gown with matching heels and a curled-up hairstyle to the 75th Annual Golden Globe Awards in 2018.
Following her Twitter saga in 2020, Barr resumed posting photographs of herself on social media, this time with her long gray hair in waves. Her most recent social media image, from 2021, showed her in a figure-hugging leopard print outfit and gray hair.
According to Closer Weekly, during an appearance on the “TODAY” show in 2014, the award-winning Hollywood diva was frank about her weight reduction journey: She stated:
“I simply want to keep becoming healthy and getting rid of superfluous baggage to make me lighter on my feet and in my life.”
Barr has made peace with aging and prefers to let her hair gray, in addition to being healthy and letting go of superfluous baggage. Unlike others, she is not scared to admit that she is getting older. A former presidential contender once remarked l
“I want to appear elderly because I am.” “And I believe that getting older is beneficial.”
Barr wore her long gray hair during an appearance on the daytime TV show “Live! With Regis and Kelly” in New York in January 2011. She wore a white coat with black pants and boots for the event. Her book, “Roseannearchy: Dispatches From the Nut Farm,” was released on January 4, 2011.
Barr also declared in March 2007 that she would discontinue coloring her hair and embrace her gray hair full-time. She used to wear black or platinum blonde.
Another admirer of Barr’s appearance is her twenty-year love partner, whom she met in 2002 while running a writing competition for her blog. In an interview with the Guardian in October 2008, she mentioned him as follows:
“My partner and I have a lot in common.” In certain ways, he is feminine. He used to live in the desert when he wrote to me. “With his books, he was like a hermit.”
Barr said that she and her partner talked over the phone for a year before meeting in person. “I was smitten by his voice,” she said. He had never sent her a photo of himself before their first encounter, and she assured him it didn’t matter what he looked like.
They eventually agreed to meet, and she drove him to the airport. Barr said that she fell in love with him the moment he answered the door.
