Rosie O'Donnell snubs Winfrey

Rosie O'Donnell has turned down the chance to appear on Oprah Winfrey's show to promote her new autobiography.

The actress-turned-U.S. TV personality, who is currently promoting her memoirs Celebrity Detox, will snub a slot on The Oprah Winfrey Show for an interview with ABC anchor Diane Sawyer.

A source tells the New York Daily Post: "She's doing an interview with Diane Sawyer instead.

"Rosie has always been booked with Diane. We gracefully declined Oprah's offer. I'm sure Rosie will do Oprah's show another time."
