Barbra Streisand Sends Rosie O’Donnell Sweet Message Amid ‘Kimmel’ Guest-Hosting Gig: ‘Welcome Home!’
"Be still my heart -- she is a class act -- what a way to finish my week on Kimmel," the comedian says of the singer's message.
Barbra Streisand, a longtime idol of Rosie O'Donnell, extended a heartfelt welcome to the comedian upon her return to late-night television. O'Donnell, who was recently the guest host on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, shared a screenshot of Streisand's sweet message on Instagram, expressing her delight at receiving the note. Streisand wrote, "From Barbra — It's good to see you back on TV!
Welcome home! xxxx Barbra," adding "#love" and "#barbra" to the caption. The message held extra significance for O'Donnell, as the two have a long-standing friendship that dates back to O'Donnell's days hosting The Rosie O'Donnell Show, when Streisand appeared as a guest. O'Donnell previously praised Streisand's interview as a pivotal moment in her career, making Streisand's encouragement all the more meaningful.
During her guest-hosting stint from Monday to Thursday, O'Donnell welcomed various celebrities including Hannah Waddingham, Jean Smart, Richard Gadd, Charlie Day, and Janelle James.
