Rosie O\u2019Donnell<\/a> is set to guest host for Jimmy Kimmel<\/a> on\u00a0Jimmy Kimmel Live!<\/a><\/em> next month, and a rumor is already swirling that she\u2019s aiming to make the late-night spot permanent. O\u2019Donnell addressed the speculation herself after receiving a comment request from a tabloid about whether she\u2019s planning on going behind Kimmel\u2019s back to nab his late-night slot.<\/p>\n

\u201cHa funny \u2013 and completely untrue,\u201d O\u2019Donnell said in an email response, which she took a screenshot of and posted to Instagram. \u201cI leave for ireland the day I\u2019m done guest hosting for jimmy \u2013 where my child starts the 8th grade \u2013 I\u2019m not interested in doing late night \u2013 daytime however would be interesting.\u201d<\/p>\n

O\u2019Donnell moved to Ireland in 2025 amid Donald Trump<\/a>\u2018s second term as president.<\/p>\n

Her post about a potential daytime television return piqued the interest of fans, who flooded the comments section with messages of support. \u201cI think I speak for millennials everywhere when I say please bring The Rosie O\u2019Donnell show<\/em> back so we can feel alive again,\u201d someone wrote, while another added, \u201cBring back your daytime talk show. I loved watching it as a kid.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another commenter said, \u201c\u201cDaytime would be interesting\u201d just made every hair on my body stand up.
