Disgraced TV star Roseanne Barr has blamed former first lady Michelle Obama for getting her fired from her ABC reboot 'Roseanne' last year.
The 66-year-old comedian was infamously sacked from her namesake show after she tweeted racist remarks about former Obama administration adviser Valerie Jarrett.
Barr has previously claimed she did not know Jarrett was black when she likened her to a cross between the Muslim Brotherhood and 'Planet of the Apes'.
While Barr initially took responsibility for the remark, she told the UK's Sunday Times Magazine, published yesterday, that the former first lady was to blame for getting her fired.

She claims Michelle told then-president of ABC Entertainment Group Channing Dungey to terminate her over the Jarrett insult.
Jarrett has been a longtime friend of Michelle and her husband Barack.
'She said, "This tweet is unforgivable." That's what I was told,' Barr said.
'I tend to believe it because the woman who fired me is now working with the Obamas at Netflix.'
Dungey resigned from the ABC last year and is now Netflix's vice president of original content.
The Obamas have signed a production deal with Netflix.
Back when the incident first unfolded, Barr retweeted multiple statements claiming that Michelle had played a role in her firing.

'According to sources ABC President Channing Dungey had a long conversation via phone with former First Lady Michelle Obama before deciding to cancel the Roseanne show,' read a tweet.
'Michelle Obama was reportedly enraged and insisted an apology was inadequate.'
Barr also retweeted a post that further suggested this was an attempt by the Obamas to get revenge after she mocked the couple's Netflix deal with a hashtag last week that became a trending topic.
'Interesting. A few days after the popular #ObmasNetflixShows was all over the place making people giggle. Not surprised and I would not doubt it being very true,' read the post that Barr shared with her followers.
These were just two of the conspiracy theories retweeted by Barr in the wake of the show's cancellation.

In the Sunday interview with the UK publication, Barr accused the ABC of having an issue with her support of President Donald Trump, who she described as a 'genius' and a 'real deep thinker.'
'They hate powerful women and they hate powerful, deplorable women and I do consider myself deplorable,' she said.
'Deplorable is the greatest thing Hillary ever called us, because it empowered a revolution - we are deplorable to her kind. Of course, all working-class people are deplorable to her because it was working-class people that elected Trump,' she said.
Barr went on to say that her initial tweet about Jarrett, which she admits was 'very stupid', came about due to her 'inebriated condition' after mixing Ambien and beer.
She claims it was meant to be critical of the Obama's administration's links to Iran.
'I should have written it backwards,' she said.
'It came out dyslexic. It should have been, 'Valerie Jarrett's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood have now allowed Iran's government to remain, as in the movie Planet of the Apes.'

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
