Rosie O’Donnell on Romancing Miranda in ‘And Just Like That’ and Moving to Ireland to Escape Trump: ‘When Would It Be Safe to Come Back?’
Rosie O'Donnell discusses playing a closeted nun on 'And Just Like That,' her love of Cynthia Nixon, moving to Ireland after the election.
On the season premiere of “And Just Like That,” O’Donnell plays Mary, a woman visiting New York from out of town whom Miranda (Cynthia Nixon) picks up at a bar, expecting never to see again. She hopes to tour the production, but for now, the Scottish city is a short trip from her current home in Ireland, where she moved as a response to Donald Trump’s second-term presidency. You’d go to church and hear horrible things about people like you, and Billie Jean [King] and Martina [Navratilova] had to disclaim their lesbianism and pretend they were not gay in order to continue working on the tennis circuit, and that was so painful for me when I was a 10-year-old.
