Rosie O’Donnell has responded to longtime friend Kathy Griffin after she expressed she was disappointed she didn’t get the opportunity appear on Jimmy Kimmel Live! while the League of Their Own star is guest-hosting this week.
In her latest YouTube episode of Talk Your Head Off with Kathy Griffin, which was clipped and shared to Instagram on Tuesday, the post caught the attention of O’Donnell, who responded to Griffin’s snub claim in the comments.

“One of the first things I said was, ‘Well, this doesn’t need to be said, but I would love to be a guest,'” she recalled, mentioning their common dislike and criticism of President Donald Trump and the repercussions they’ve both faced because of it. “I mean, think about it, you’ve got these two women who share this very unique thing in common.”
Griffin then recounted how after she shared a doctored, graphic image of Trump in 2017, “Hollywood turned on me overnight. The phone stopped ringing. I got fired from every job that I had coming up.”
She also acknowledged that while it would be a great opportunity for the two to appear together, she recognized the possibility that O’Donnell didn’t have any say in who she’d interview during her time guest-hosting the show. She also shared that she was later told that she was not selected to appear on the show because of “two people” that she didn’t name in the video.
As O’Donnell’s time on the late-night show is underway this week, Griffin still maintained her support and encouraged her followers to tune in every night.
