Yesterday’s View–Rosie meets Royalty, remains herself

Posted by Natasha on January 12, 2007

Yesterday’s View was not covered here at Ro and O, and we have to ask ourselves are we only interested in the show when Rosie has to defend herself against a man with buttloads of cash and a mannequin for a wife? The answer is no, I had to go to the dentist.

My favorite Ro moment (new category, Kate?) was her telling of how she met Prince Charles at the premiere of the The Flinstones. First of all, I love that it was The Flinstones that gave her her brush with Royalty. (Side note: what does Prince Charles actually do? Why is he at a Flinstones premiere?) In her typical Ro way she talked about being confused about how to curtsy, but once she did it well for Prince Charles she turned to the next guy she met and said, “I did the curtsy right for Prince Charles!” The man said, “Nice to meet you, I am the Prince of Romania.” It was at this point in the telling of the story that Barbara Walters interrupts her and says, “Quick Prince of Romania story–”

This post could have also been titled Why I Love Rosie and Why I Would Be Intimidated to Hang Out with Barbara Walters.
