The View’s Joy Behar left her co-hosts in fits of laughter on Wednesday’s show after admitting she was going “bald”… below.
The 80-year-old TV star spoke candidly about the aging process during a discussion about keeping up with beauty standards — perhaps sharing a little too much personal information about her body hair.
Joy’s intimate confession came during a panel discussion Pamela Anderson chooses to go make-up free bee Fashion week Paris recently — a conversation that bizarrely led host Sunny Hostin to blurt out to Joy, “You told me that as you get older, that hair down there and everywhere else turns gray or bald.”
While the rest of the panel laughed in shock, mother-of the two Sunny, 54, subsequently admitted that she had undergone several “medieval procedures” – including laser hair removal – to “avoid that”.
Joy then informed Sunny about the other steps she had taken to prevent gray hair, asking if she had resorted to hair removal cream, which she incorrectly called ‘alopecia’.

Sara Haines looked surprised during the conversation, but asked Joy if it was really true
‘What, you put alopecia on it? What are you doing? I mean, that stuff they put on there, what’s it called?’ Joy told Sunny, before realizing her mistake, adding, “No alopecia!” Alopecia is what happens! But what did they put there to make the hair grow?’
Sunny, 54, explained that “you laser everything off” and admitted, “I’ve done a lot of things because of you!” before mentioning the hair growth product Rogaine.
“You’re not putting Rogaine there, are you?” Joy joked, while co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin urged viewers tuning in at home to “not follow this medical advice!”
Mum-of-three Sara Haines was clearly still intrigued by the subject and asked Joy: ‘Will it work out in the end?’ to which she replied, “What? The hair down there? Yes, you’re going bald. So? Who needs it?’
As the woman burst into laughter again, the camera panned to moderator Whoopi Goldberg, who looked unimpressed and said, “Or it shows up somewhere else… here or here or there, it’s crazy,” as she looked at her chin and her cheek pointed. .
While the ABC program went to a commercial break, your mother of one heard Joy tell the ladies that you’re “growing a tall white one” as they giggled some more.
The glamorous redhead admitted she ‘doesn’t’ remove her make-up once the cameras stop rolling and argued that women don’t feel better about themselves before joking that ‘you can brighten up a corpse if you put on a nice lipstick’. ‘.
Viewers tuning in at home were divided when it came to the intimate conversation about body hair and took to X, formerly known as Twitter, to share their thoughts.
“This conversation is going south real quick…#theview,” one person joked, while another posted, “#TheView TMI with the body hair.”
“You’re not putting Rogaine there, are you?” Joy joked to Sunny
Moderator Whoopi Goldberg seemed unimpressed during the debate and remained fairly quiet
The 80-year-old comedian shared a little too much information about her own body hair
A third person admitted: ‘Ok ladies!!!! I don’t want to hear you guys talking about “the hair down there!” #TheView,” while a fourth said: “#TheView Joy is so funny.”
It comes after Joy joked about former co-host Barbara Walters’ signature ‘porn’ smile during an interview with Geri Halliwell on Tuesday’s show.
During the chat, Geri said: ‘Barbara, she is a wonderful lady. She taught me one thing: she said (she) had a camera smile that she uses, and I still use this advice.
“She said when you’re in front of the camera you notice you feel a little stiff, and she always says, ‘Ahh.’ You look into the camera and say, “Ahh.” You get the right kind of smile. That’s Barbara’s smile. It stuck with me,” the former Spice Girl explained.
Joy responded saying, “She did it every time she took a picture. It must have its mouth open.’ The comedian then joked about her late co-host’s smile, adding, “Well, those are from her porn days!”
The joke prompted Alyssa Farah Griffin to exclaim, “Oh my God,” as the audience laughed and Joy added, “They know it’s a joke.”
