Comedy Icon Celebrates 93rd Birthday at Swanky Steakhouse

Carol Burnett

There are a few people who can make us laugh with just a twitch of their eye or a move of their shoulder. Physical comedy is difficult, but if you can master it, you could have a very long and rewarding career. Carol Burnett is one of the best physical comedians of all time. The 1976 Went with the Wind sketch on The Carol Burnett Show will go down in history as one of the best moments on television, ever. For decades, Carol has lived to make people laugh, and we’re all grateful. This year, for her birthday, she dined at Lucky’s Steakhouse in Montecito, California, with her husband, Brian Miller, according to Page Six.

Carol Burnett Looked Happy on Her Birthday

She didn’t have a big celebration, but Carol Burnett’s birthday appeared to be just what she wanted. Leading up to her birthday, Carol Burnett appeared on Amy Poehler’s podcast, Good Hang with Amy. The Parks & Recreation star told Carol how happy she was that the legend was born. “You’re everything to me,” Amy said.

Amy then told her idol that she’s the reason she got into comedy in the first place. Carol Burnett appeared both stunned and honored to hear the funny lady’s words.

“Thank goodness @itscarolburnett was born!” Amy captioned a clip on Instagram.

Seeing Amy Poehler and Carol Burnett together touched the hearts of fans.

“This episode felt like girlhood in its purest, most tender form. Watching Amy talk with her best friend, hearing Carol speak so lovingly about hers, and listening to them reflect on the women they admire and helped them get to where they are had me happy crying the entire time. It was a beautiful reminder of how powerful friendship, connection, and shared admiration can be. A truly proud-to-be-a-woman moment from start to finish,” someone wrote.
