Roseanne Barr says baby she gave up for adoption thought she was Goldie Hawn

Will the real Goldie Hawn please stand up?

Roseanne Barr is reflecting on placing a baby up for adoption as a teenager, and how that same child would later grow up thinking her mom was really Goldie Hawn. She told the funny story while speaking to Bunnie XO on the latest episode of her Dumb Blonde podcast.

Barr, who gave birth to a baby girl, Brandi, at 17, claims she kept her daughter for a week before she ultimately decided to give “her up to Jewish Family and Children Services there in Denver.” The Roseanne alum told Bunnie she predicted to the baby at the time of her adoption that she’d see her when she turned 18, and sure enough, when Brandi was 17-and-a-half, she found Barr.

“I was on TV, and that’s how [she] found me. All she knew was that her mother was famous in Hollywood, and Jewish,” Barr said, adding that “she thought Goldie Hawn was her mom, because she looked just like Goldie Hawn.”

Barr also claimed that her boyfriend at the time, Tom Arnold, attempted to tell the story to the National Enquirer, which is how Brandi first learned her mother was really Barr.

“The Enquirer called her, and she answered the phone, my daughter, and they said, ‘Would you like to know who your mother is?’ And she’s all excited thinking it’s going to be Goldie Hawn,” Barr explained. “And they go, ‘It’s Roseanne Barr.’ And her words are so hilarious. She goes, ‘Christ, I didn’t even know she was a Jew,’ which is so hilarious.”

However, when Brandi saw photos of Barr, she realized the resemblance. “‘Oh my God, I do look just like her!’” Barr recalled her daughter saying. “And she took the picture to the mirror and was going, ‘I do, I look exactly like her.’”

Barr, Brandi, and Brandi’s mother the next day met up in person for the first time, “and it was wonderful,” Barr said. “And we’ve been back together since then, and she is now 53. And she is awesome. She has a son and a lovely husband, and she’s a wonderful woman.”
