JaHeRo is a nickname for the morning video blogs posted by Rosie O'Donnell on her website during part of her tenure on The View. O'Donnell, her producer Janette Barber, and her makeup artist Helene Macaulay created unscripted video blogs Monday through Thursday prior to taping, during which they answered user-submitted questions.

They adopted Bonnie Tyler's "Holding Out for a Hero" as their unofficial theme song with O'Donnell quite frequently singing the chorus as "I Need JAHERO" after it was suggested by someone who posted to Rosie's site.

Cast

Janette Barber ("JA" in "JAhero") and O'Donnell have been friends for 20 years. Janette was a former writer for The Rosie O'Donnell Show. The two met doing stand up in the 1980s. She often shares unique stories about her life such as her dad burying a can of peas in the ground then replacing them with raisins. She met her partner, Barry, on the Internet when she was working on O'Donnell's show. Barber enjoys alternative rock, gardening and boxing. Barber was allegedly escorted from ABC building during the week of May 21, 2007 for drawing a moustache on a magazine picture of Elisabeth Hasselbeck that was posted on a bulletin board. Rosie explains the incident in the Jahero (Minus Janette) blog posted on 5/26.

Helene Macaulay ("HE" in "JaHEro") is O'Donnell's hair stylist and makeup artist. She is often seen eating unusual foods such as dark chocolate, salmon, cold pizza, and large turkey legs for breakfast on the blog. She says her eyes are puffy in the morning so to mask them she typically wears retro aviator sunglasses on the blog. Macaulay is an advocate for environmentally friendly materials and habits and was found to reuse make-up sponges. She watches little-to-no television and also takes several classes, including: French, speech, singing and acting. Helene is also a director and producer. She and her brother Gavin Macaulay co-directed and produced two documentaries, "Frankie's Mambo: El Ritmo Diablo" and "Chema's House", both of which aired on PBS. Helene's other celebrity clients include Edie Falco and Mariah Carey

Rosie O'Donnell ("RO" in "JaheRO"). The video blog debuted on March 27, 2007, originally featuring only O'Donnell and Macaulay, and on April 18 Barber joined the cast. Occasionally Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck, and Barbara Walters made short cameo appearances. Jenny McCarthy appeared once briefly, as did Hasselbeck's mother-in-law and O'Donnell's mother-in-law (wife Kelli's mother). Kathy Griffin also appeared, during which she read some of the user-submitted questions.

Rosie left the View on May 25, 2007. JaHeRo reunited to create blogs twice at Rosie's home during the summer of 2007, though their blogs had previously only been taped in the dressing room of the View.

In January, 2008, Rosie confirmed on her blog that she will re-unite with Helene for some blog videos when she tapes her appearances for "Password," hosted by Regis Philbin. Rosie also said Jeanette will not be present.
