White House Criticizes Rosie O'Donnell Following 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' Hosting Stint
The White House has issued a strong rebuke against comedian Rosie O'Donnell after her guest-hosting appearances on 'Jimmy Kimmel Live' this week. A White House spokesperson, in a statement to Entertainment Weekly, referred to O'Donnell as 'a nasty woman and a total slob whose brain has been completely destroyed by Trump Derangement Syndrome.' O'Donnell had used her platform during the show to repeatedly criticize President Trump, beginning her first monologue by stating, 'If you thought the president hated 'Jimmy Kimmel Live!' when it was hosted by Jimmy Kimmel? Buckle up, people! Buckle up.' She also joked about living in Ireland due to 'Mango Mussolini' and performed a revised version of 'Danny Boy,' retitled 'Donny Boy,' directly addressing President Trump with critical lyrics about his policies and public image. O'Donnell's representative declined to comment on the White House's statement.
