“The Nanny” fans may remember that Fran Fine always came to her family’s rescue. Like her character, Fran Drescher is no different. Page Six wanted to know more about how the awkward meeting went down between Rosie O’Donnell, Priyanka Chopra, and Nick Jonas. After all, she was dining with O’Donnell at the time. Drescher defended her friend and said that O’Donnell “sometimes regrets something she might have done because she would never want to hurt anybody.” Drescher pointed out that O’Donnell has other admirable traits because “[s]he happens to be a good woman, and fearless for fighting for the underdog.” Drescher added, “So yeah, you know, not knowing somebody’s name or something should be her greatest offense.”
Of course, this is not the first time the besties have had each other’s backs. In 2008, Drescher appeared on “Larry King Live” in the midst of an election. She appealed to the voters in Spanish, and apparently, King didn’t like it. So, he then made fun of her, per the New York Post. The very next day, O’Donnell took to her blog and shared a poll. She wanted to know if King’s days were numbered and if he should “retire soon.” An overwhelming majority agreed that King should retire. Ouch! It seems as if Drescher and O’Donnell have been defending each other for years, as BFFs often do. As Drescher raved on a podcast, “I just love that woman!”
