Happy Tuesday, blog buddies!
Did you watch our blog-friend Rosie O'Donnell debut on The View this morning?!? I thought she was FANTASTIC - funny, bright, honest, etc.
It was SO great to see her back on TV. I was a HUGE fan of her talk show back in the day. In fact, her talk show was one of my main inspirations for pursuing my dream of becoming a talk show host.
Back in April, my life-long dream of meeting Rosie came true when she was a guest on The Tonight Show (click HERE for that blog entry). She was everything in real life that I had ever dreamed she would be.
After our meeting, many of you bloggers posted comments and sent me emails saying, "You should have asked Rosie to take our Celebrity Pop Quiz!" To be honest, it didn't even cross my mind to ask her when I met her. So far, the celebs who have taken the quiz (Gwyneth Paltrow, Anderson Cooper, Jenny McCarthy - click on each celeb's name to read their CPQ) have been friends of mine, so the thought of asking a real live celeb/idol of mine to take our little Celebrity Pop Quiz was a tad daunting.
(What's a CPQ? Click HERE.)
A couple months later, after Rosie mentioned on her blog that she'd take the Celebrity Pop Quiz if I asked her to (click HERE to read that - it's the 3rd question down), I decided to try to get in touch with her by going to her blog (click HERE) and submitting an ASK RO question. Later that day, I got an email from her agreeing to take the quiz.
You submitted your questions to me, I narrowed them down to 10, sent them to Rosie, and now, on the very day that Rosie started her new job as co-host of The View, I am proud to present to you...
