Audra McDonald Clueless Over Patti LuPone Calling Her ‘Not a Friend’ Due to Falling Out: ‘I Haven’t Seen Her in 11 Years… I Don’t Know What Rift She’s Talking About’
Audra McDonald says that if a feud exists between her and Patti LuPone then she's not sure why or what it is.
“I mean, if there’s a rift between us, I don’t know what it is,” McDonald told Gayle King on “CBS Mornings” when asked if she was “surprised” by LuPone’s comment. The two actors’ alleged feud was brought up as LuPone was reflecting on an incident that occurred last fall when she was on Broadway in “The Roommate.” LuPone filed a complaint as noise from the musical next door, “Hell’s Kitchen,” could be heard in her theater. LuPone and McDonald worked together in 2007 on the Los Angeles Opera’s production of “Rise and Fall of the City of Mahagonny” and in 2000 for the New York Philharmonic’s concert version of “Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street.”
