Former Green Party presidential candidate Roseanne Barr said that anyone who eats at Chick-fil-A deserves to get cancer, via Twitter.

"[A]nyone who eats Sh*t Fil-A deserves to get the cancer that is sure to come from eating antibiotic filled tortured chickens 4Christ, (sic)" she tweeted on Wednesday.

Barr admitted that she should not have used the word "deserves," and apologized.

"I shouldn't have used the word deserves in my tweet and I apologize," she wrote.

"I should have been more careful in choice of words," she tweeted.

Now, Roseanne reprises her Star Spangled Banner moment with Comedy Central in a new roast honoring the raw comedian and TV star who has always courted controversy.

Her roast, the “Comedy Central Roast o Roseanne, will air Sunday, August 12 at 10:00 P.M. ET/PT

The #RoseanneRoast will tape Saturday, August 4 at the Hollywood Palladium

Jane Lynch confirmed as Roastmaster and Roasters to be announced next week!
