Rosie to Larry - Hang It Up, Already!
3/3/2008 9:26 AM PT
She just can't help herself – Rosie O'Donnell is telling talk-show legend Larry King that he should suspend himself ... for good.
As the New York Post observes, Rosie said that Larry was "getting tough 2 watch" and asked her readers in a poll whether King should "retire soon" – 88 percent said yes, as of this morning. And last year, Ro started the spat with King when she blogged, "Stick a fork in him – Larry is done."
Why all the King-hating? The Post says it has something to do with King "making fun" of Ro-pal Fran Drescher on Friday's show. Or maybe it's because he's gone all hip-hop on us.

But Carrico's singing a different tune, telling a Friday conference call (via People), "I've been growing this hair for a very long time. It's ridiculous that [the media] have to come up with something like that." But several sources told TMZ last week that "Idol" officials were freaking out about Carrico's faux-coiff, and we also showed you what he looked like, before his hairline succumbed to gravity.
