Rosie O'Donnell 'almost made very expensive mistake' while saving woman from choking
Rosie O'Donnell joked that she nearly made a very expensive mistake after she saved an elderly woman from choking. The comedian moved to Ireland following the re-election of Donald Trump — with whom she had a long rivalry — with her child Clay, and spoke earlier this month about how she saved a 90-year-old woman from choking at the Dillon Hotel. Appearing on Ireland AM on Friday (July 25) Rosie elaborated on the incident; but joked that while she called for people to call 911, she was told that the emergency number here is 999. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ireland AM (@irelandamvmtv) 'I ran over like an EMT,' Rosie explained. 'I had taken a course [on CPR] when I was in my 20s, but I didn't know — I was panicking. My friend was there and we were doing the Heimlich, I was in the front of her and she didn't know how to do it. So in the final minute, because I was so scared, I pushed, and I went up and then [the steak] flew out.' Rosie then said that she 'kept screaming 'call 911!' and then finally I sat down and the woman at the next table says 'Rosie, it's not 911, it's 999.'' 'There was an American ambulance on the way,' host Martin King joked, while Rosie immediately quipped 'it costs $30,000.' Rosie O'Donnell joked that she nearly made a very expensive mistake after she saved an elderly woman from choking. Pic:'So you're good at saving people from choking?' chef Jack O'Keeffe then asked Rosie, before joking 'you should've been at Croke Park on Sunday' — a reference to Cork's undoing in the second half of the All-Ireland final against Tipperary. Rosie has been welcomed to Ireland with open arms; and bookies are even putting her in the running for the President of Ireland. Ladbrokes are saying Rosie could put herself forward for the Irish presidency, especially since she is seeking Irish citizenship through descent, which would make her eligible. Rosie moved to Ireland last year and has been welcomed with open arms; with some people reckoning she could even go for the President of Ireland. Pic: Virgin Media Television Punters have also seemingly put Rosie as a potential dark horse, with 10/1 odds of winning if she does end up running. 'Rosie O'Donnell has really captured the hearts and minds of the Irish people,' Ladbrokes spokesperson Cal Gildart said. 'Her endearing charm has led punters to back her for a run at the presidency. We may see her appearing on a ballot paper in November.'
