Bette Midler recounted fond memories with her late First Wives Club costar Diane Keaton after her death. Midler, 79, appeared on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert on Tuesday, October 14, where she discussed her relationship with Keaton. "She was such a genius," Midler began. "There was something about her that was utterly magical ... she was completely her own person and inimitable. She was so authentically herself." Midler admitted that prior to the pair connecting alongside Goldie Hawn for The First Wives Club, released in 1996, she had felt intimidated by Keaton when they first met.
