“It was a tremendous success,” she told FOX Business' Stuart Varney. “You have to look at what's happening today, how to utilize social media and not all the bad comments. This was so uplifting. There was no divide. Everybody was happy…. I drank a little tequila.”

Somers said connecting with people around the world let down the international divide and felt similarly to post-9/11 togetherness.
“Bringing all these people in from all over the country and all over the world, there was just a great feeling,” she said. “I don't know, was it the tequila? Or was it just, for once, to just let the divide drop.”
The party was so successful that Somers plans to host another on March 27 at 5 p.m. PST.
