O’DONNELL GIVES UP BEER AFTER SHOWDOWN WITH SON
Actress/TV presenter ROSIE O’DONNELL gave her kids a sober Christmas gift - she quit drinking beer.
The A League of Their Own star has revealed she stopped drinking on 1 December (08) after her teenage son, Parker, refused to get her a beer from the refrigerator.
She says, "I was with my son, who is now 13, and I said to him, ‘Park, can you get me a beer?’ and he said, ‘No, I don’t want to.’ And I said, ‘Really why not?’ And he says, ‘Because… I think you drink too much beer." "I said ‘You know, when I was a kid - when I was 22 - I stopped drinking for, like, eight years.’ He goes, ‘Well, maybe you should do that again.’" And when O’Donnell revealed she’d struggle with sobriety, her son suggested she seek help.
She tells U.S. talk show host Tyra Banks, "He said, ‘There’s a drunk club. I forget what it’s called, but you have to, like, be really drunk to get in. I don’t know if they’d let you in, but you could ask them for tips.’"
