“It’s upside down,” Sharon burst out.
“James!” exclaimed fellow guest Jack Whitehall, 34, jokingly.
James then turned it over and Sharon revealed it was titled ‘A Fine Way To Say Goodbye’.
“That’s a great name,” James said.
Sharon explained that the 6-by-8-foot painting was inspired by a famous actor and artist who sold his house to a friend of hers.
“And he did so many artistic and so many beautiful things in this house. He left sculptures, in the garden and fountains and just the house was just so personal and left so many beautiful parts of himself in the house. And I painted the painting… about the person, because I thought it was such a beautiful way to say goodbye,” Sharon said.
“And I brought it to the show tonight because you have that essence, James. And I walked down the hall and I saw the pictures of you on Penny Lane with Paul McCartney, and the pictures of you in the car with Mrs. Obama, and pictures of you with all the stars. And you in sailor suits dancing in Times Square and doing all the great things you’ve done, and all the “Carpool Karaokes” that have given us so much joy. On the Internet, even if we are not with you at night. And all of you that you have given us in this country and abroad. And when you go home, back to your house, I want you to know what a nice way to say goodbye,’ Sharon said.
