This morning on The View, Rosie O’Donnell came to the defense of Danny Devito‘s slightly-slurred appearance on the show yesterday, clearing him from any alcoholism accusations. Rosie then went on to say that many guests on her former talk show used to arrive drunk — she wouldn’t name names — and one blind item that we need to crack:
Rosie: Once there was a person on, and I met them in the green room before and they were fine, and then they were alone for a half-hour. And when they came out on the show, they had a burn mark on the face from…
Barbara Walters: Freebasing.
Rosie: Yeah. Which was so sad. And during the whole interview — cause it was live TV, like yesterday, all I kept thinking of is “How can you help this kid?”
So there you have it kids, the question of the day: Who was freebasing backstage at The Rosie O’Donnell Show? Also, we love how Barbara seems to know so much about it… Leave your guesses in the comments.
