Thankfully, Evangeline is safe as she was on set already when it occurred." Honolulu Fire Captain Kenison Tejada was alerted of the fire at 6:43 am (local time) and fire engines reached the home in Kailua just minutes later. He explains, "When we arrived the house was fully engulfed in flames. It was a complete loss. Just the roof was still standing." Fire investigators arrived on the scene later in the day to help determine the cause of the accident.

Real estate mogul Donald Trump is threatening to sue Rosie O'Donnell after she made unflattering statements about him on The View yesterday morning. Co-host O'Donnell called Trump a "snake-oil salesman" following his announcement that he would not fire troubled Miss USA Tara Conner. She then went on to talk about alleged extra-marital affairs and discussed Trump's finances, claiming that he went bankrupt - a charge he denies. Trump fires back, telling American publication People that O'Donnell is "a woman out of control" and insisting he would be suing her over her statement questioning his financial well-being. He says, "You can't make false statements. Rosie will rue the words she said. I'll most likely sue her for making those false statements - and it'll be fun. Rosie's a loser. A real loser. I look forward to taking lots of money from my nice fat little Rosie." O'Donnell seemed to realize she was in for a fight after she criticized Trump on the show. She said, "Here comes the lawsuit. Get ready. This is going to be good." Yesterday afternoon The View executive producers Bill Geddie and Barbara Walters issued a statement in support of O'Donnell - and Trump. The statement reads: "Both Rosie and Donald are high-spirited, opinionated people. Donald has been a friend of The View for many years and Rosie, of course, is our enormously popular moderator. We cherish them both and hope the new year brings calm and peace."
