ROSEANNE BARR TALKS AMBIEN WITH DR. OZ: Buckle up, Roseanne Barr is re-entering the interview circuit. Barr sits down with Dr. Mehmet Oz to kick off Season 10, Page Six reports, and it sounds like a doozy. For starters, she addresses previous claims that she was popping Ambien when she fired off the racists tweets that got her booted from ABC. “Well, I’ve done some weird things on Ambien and I think a lot of people have. I’ve heard from thousands of people about it,” Barr says on the show, to air Tuesday. “Yeah, so I actually looked up Ambien, and tweeting is not a side effect,” Oz tells Barr, who concurs.

CBS REPORTER SHARES TEXT THAT ALLEGEDLY GOT JEFF FAGER FIRED: After 60 Minutes producer Jeff Fager was booted for sexual misconduct Wednesday, he claimed it was a “harsh” text that got him fired. Now, reporter Jericka Duncan is revealing the contents of the text, which he sent her about her coverage of misconduct accusations against him: “If you repeat these false accusations without any of your own reporting to back them up you will be held responsible for harming me.” He continued: “Be careful. There are people who lost their jobs trying to harm me and if you pass on these damaging claims without your own reporting to back them up that will become a serious problem.” (Page Six)

DANIEL RADCLIFFE ON HARRY POTTER MEMES: Daniel Radcliffe has had to endure a lot as the child star of a blockbuster franchise. He grew up in front of the world’s eyes and we rewarded him by creating a series of humiliating (if totally hilarious) memes mocking the awkwardness of it all. He poked fun of himself and us on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon Wednesday (not that he had a choice, after Fallon showed him HP memes for two very full minutes). He seemed to enjoy the part about cosplay Hermione dancing. (Vulture)

MADONNA MISSIVE BLASTING LETTERMAN MAY GO FOR THOUSANDS: A seminal piece of pop culture history is going on the block. RR Auction in Boston is auctioning off Madonna’s handwritten note from May 1994 about her disastrous appearance on David Letterman’s The Late Show. (ICYMI, she dropped the f-bomb a dozen+ times, making censorship history). She wrote: “In this country you are not allowed to be a girl, look good, have a point of view and have a good time all at once. Need I say more.” Online bids will start September 25^th. (TMZ)
