#RoseanneBarr went on a Twitter rant trying to dispel the rumors of her being a racist. In response to a tweet about Barack Obama’s former aide, Valerie Jarrett, Barr tweeted “Muslim brotherhood & planet of the apes had a baby=vj.” The internet flipped out and the return of her hit ABC show was cancelled.

However, she has since claimed that she was referring to “anti-semitism” in reference to the movie, “Planet Of The Apes”. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

In her tweets she also reassures her followers that she is doing well and reflecting on how she was “misunderstood”. She goes on to say, “I’ve never practiced “RACISM” in my entire life & never will. Meantime… 2) I’ve been watching this new doc called ‘Malcolm X: An overwhelming Influence on the Black Power Movement.’”

She also told her followers that she was “planting trees digging in the earth singing and feeling a great deal of relief.” Yet, she still currently has not gotten the show back on air. According to CNN, some fans are wondering if the reboot will come out, with a different star than Barr herself.
