Yesterday Barbara Walters made her triumphant return to The View and all of her minions took time out to kiss her ring and then she shared the story of how she got chicken pox. She said she got it from a well known actor. You have to remember to read this using Barbara's accent. He kissed her on the cheek. They hugged. They found a corner of the party where he has his way with her. OK, so not that last part, but would have been a great story to hear her say early in the morning. People would have dropped their coffee for sure. Barbara says that the actor had shingles but didn't know it and the next thing you know Barbara had chicken pox. I can't believe she never got it her whole life. She would not say who gave it to her, but The NY Daily News says they have learned it was Frank Langella.
