Danny DeVito and the story that just won’t die…
First, we’ll tell you that the saucy, cheeky Fx comedy “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’’ will be back for a third season with 15 new episodes airing this summer.
And now we’ll have a little chat about co-star Danny DeVito, who discovered the wonderful world of YouTube after he appeared on “The View’’ a few weeks ago. He joked about still being drunk after hanging out with George Clooney and imbibing a few lemoncellos.
The next thing he knew, his appearance was slapped on YouTube and he became the toast of the water cooler crowd.”
“You know, you could really see the reach of the Internet. I got congratulatory calls from all over the world,’’ DeVito says, explaining that he wasn’t drunk, just tired and jet lagged. “It’s a real great thing what we’re doing, putting our every breath out there for everyone to see.’’
Of course, that’s all yesterday’s news.
The latest “View’’ scandal is the spat between co-host Rosie O’Donnell and Donald Trump – with host Barbara Walters getting dragged along for the ride.
So, Danny. Rosie or Donald?
“I know both of them. They’re really very nice people actually. I think if I had to choose between Donald and Rosie, it would (depend) on what I was planning on doing with either of them in the future,’’ DeVito says. “I know there’s a lot of back-and-forth stuff going on between the two of them, so I guess it’s good publicity. But they should chill, work it out.’’
Which leads us to “Philadelphia’’ co-star and producer Charlie Day to voice what we all really want to say:
“I don’t care about either of those people, so let’s get past it.’’
