Meghan McCain Says Rosie O'Donnell Once 'Warned' Her That 'The View' Was A 'Cesspool'
HuffPost
While their tenures on the talk show never overlapped, O'Donnell reportedly gave McCain the heads-up during the intermission of a 2018 Broadway performance.
Meghan McCain says none other than Rosie O’Donnell once “warned” her that the “The View” was a “cesspool,” the former co-host recently shared during a wide-ranging discussion about privilege, nepotism and politics on the “Your Welcome” podcast.
“I always got along with her,” said McCain during Wednesday’s episode. “She was actually the first person that warned me that ‘The View’ is a cesspool. She’s another one that, she’s worth a bajillion dollars and she has a ton of Emmys, but I think people relate to her.”
McCain joined the “View” in 2017. While her tenure never overlapped with O’Donnell’s, who was on the show in the mid-2000s, the two apparently spoke during intermission at a 2018 Broadway performance of Disney’s “Frozen,” a source told Entertainment Weekly on Thursday. HuffPost has reached out to representatives of O’Donnell for comment.
O’Donnell announced earlier this month that she and her family have moved to Ireland, citing “what’s happening politically” in the U.S., likely referring to President Donald Trump and his tumultuous and polarizing administration.
McCain argued Wednesday that O’Donnell is nonetheless still appreciated back home, stating, “She’s just been through a lot and is open, and I think if you’re raw and open, people will respond to it.”
