Biography
American talk-show host with her own show, "Rolanda" making its debut in January 1995. Initially capturing 86% of the viewing nation, it gradually waned and fell victim to the ratings wars.
A bundle of energy, Rolanda graduated with honors from Columbia School of Journalism and became a reporter for various TV stations before moving to TV's "Inside Edition." As a reporter, she has been shot at, broadcasted in a hurricane, had to negotiate a hostage crisis of a four-year-old boy, and tried to reason through a hole in the door with a guy holding a machete. She spent 13 action packed years covering the mean street of New York.
In films, she has played herself in a holiday lightweight movie, "The Stupids," and did a cameo as a reporter in Spike Lee's "Girl Six," 1996. She and Lee met in college and became friends. Single, she is photographed in the mod circuit with various good-looking escorts.
On 8/22/2001, Watts was arrested on suspicion of DUI and released on $2,500 bail, Los Angeles.
