Hello and Happy Wednesday, folks! Audience Editor Edgar Ramirez here, back in your inbox.
And though she never really went away, I'm happy to report Rosie O’Donnell is back on our TVs and social media feeds.
As John Casey writes in an opinion piece for The Advocate, O'Donnell is guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel's show while Kimmel takes his annual summer break. "And she picked up right where she left off more than 20 years ago," Casey writes.
In 2002, the year The Rosie O'Donnell Show ended its run, O’Donnell came out as a lesbian, and The Advocate promptly named her its Person of the Year.
"This week, she proved she hasn't lost a step," Casey writes. "She brilliantly referred to her old nemesis — scratch that — her longtime nemesis Donald Trump as 'Mango Mussolini.' She brought the house down."
And if you're craving more Rosie content, look no further than social media, where Christopher Wiggins reports Rosie is making her presence known.
We've missed you, Rosie!
