Rosie’S A Lifeline

After waging a public campaign to be a “phone friend” on ABC’s “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire,” talk show host Rosie O’Donnell got her wish. She’s called upon for help on Sunday’s edition of the quiz show, by a contestant using a “lifeline” to get advice answering a question. O’Donnell and ABC were tight-lipped Wednesday about who O’Donnell helped, what the question was or even if she got it right. But she’d be less likely to brag about it - as she did to talk show guest Matt Lauer on Wednesday - if she gave a contestant a bum steer. She told Lauer that she was called the night before when the show was taped, then promptly refused to answer his questions about it. “Let me just say I was nervous, and it’s a lot more tension than people realize,” O’Donnell said.
