Ask Her Anything About Desi Sr., Divorce, Drugs, Gay Rights—Lucy Ball Hasn’t Become Bashful at 68

Who are your favorite current comediennes?
Carol Burnett—she heads my list, absolutely. That girl can do anything. Nancy Walker too. Goldie Hawn, I love her. Dean Martin and Ann Sothern make me laugh more in person than in pictures. Bette Midler’s style is so much broader than mine, but I enjoy her. She shocks me. Knowing how honest and adorable and vulnerable she is, I’m shocked that she goes overboard that much in concert.
