Jimmy Kimmel Live!

Returing for her second night guest-hosting Jimmy Kimmel Live!, O’Donnell thanked “President Oompa Loompa” for her recent career resurgence: “You brought me back, just like you did with fascism and the measles.”

Eight months after its debut in Northeast Costco stores, the Jimmy Kimmel Live! sidekick’s refrigerated salsa brand is headed to Kroger stores nationwide in its first coast-to-coast retail deal.

O’Donnell, who’s never even been a guest on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, says she was surprised to be asked to guest-host this week. Kimmel “was never a fan of mine,” she tells Variety, describing their past relationship as “adversarial.”
