O'Donnell: 'Jolie scary in sexual way'

Rosie O'Donnell has claimed that she and Angelina Jolie once exchanged phone numbers for a possible date.

The former View host made the admission during an interview with DJ Howard Stern, in which she discussed that sex was not one of the reasons behind her rumoured split with partner Kelli Carpenter.

Stern's line of questioning caused O'Donnell to recall an encounter she had with the Wanted star, which was after Jolie's marriage to Billy Bob Thornton and prior to her current partnership with Brad Pitt, Us Weekly reports.

"She gave me her phone number. We talked on the phone two or three times, but that was that... There was a tentative plan to have dinner that never came through."

She added: "I was a little afraid of her. She's scary in a sexual kind of way. I have dreams about her a lot still."
