“…this is why my identification wasn’t caught up [in] being a celebrity’s … girlfriend.”
“It wasn’t?” asks Winfrey.
“It wasn’t at all,” insists McCarthy, as Winfrey presses her further by asking, “You are sure?”
“Absolutely,” answers McCarthy. “I did check on that, by the way. I checked into myself. How does my ego feel? … My ego’s fine. I’m a warrior mom [to son Evan, 8]. I always got back on my feet, and I know especially this year who I am.”
Once Winfrey accepts McCarthy’s response, the host goes on to say to her guest, “Okay, I’m gonna ask this … Just because I have to … Any chance you’ll get back together, do you think?”
“God, another good question,” replies McCarthy.
“That’s sort of a simple one,” says Winfrey, to which McCarthy says back, “I know. I didn’t even think about that one, though.”
I was so bummed when I heard Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carrey had split. I really loved them together. Too bad it didn’t work out.
Check out Jenny McCarthy on Oprah, Tuesday at 4pm.
