While pursuing her career in Hollywood, Burnett disclosed to Planet Chronicle Digital that there are certain celebrities she hopes to collaborate with in the future.
"Meryl Streep, George Clooney, and Bradley Cooper are quite a few," Burnett stated. "I would say Meryl Streep because she's funny and can sing. George Clooney for obvious reasons. And Bradley Cooper for obvious reasons."
Over the past 11 years, I have been fortunate to work with over 300 people through my show, which has had two guest stars per week. I feel incredibly lucky.
Burnett, during her speech at the event, disclosed that she grew up near the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. She remembered strolling to the Grauman's Chinese Theatre with her grandmother and marveling at the handprints and footprints embedded in the sidewalk.
