Los Angeles - Roseanne Barr has fired an intern who posted a drunken-sounding ramble purporting to be from the veteran comedian on her MySpace homepage.

Barr, 54, the star of long-running US television sitcom Roseanne, said in a statement on her website, Roseanneworld.com, that the intern responsible for the bogus post had been sacked.

"I would rather just smell like pee, like old ladies are meant to do. Aloha," one of the bogus entries on Barr's MySpace page on Monday said. The postings were swiftly removed.

Barr apologised for the incident. "One of the interns who was administering my MySpace page has been fired," she wrote. "I apologise for the offensive blogging that went on there last night."

"I write only at RoseanneWorld.com. I apologise to all on MySpace who received the offensive bulletins. The matter has been handled."

Barr then joked in a separate entry that the intern in question had stolen a home sex video.

"I am offering $25 000 (about R178 000) for (its) return (unless someone would like to distribute it - then I am willing to deal)," she wrote. - Sapa-AFP
