Joy Behar on Barbara Walters Farewell ‘View’ Reunion: It Was ‘A Bitch Fest’

Also, Macklemore is an “idiot,” former “View” co-host tells Wendy Williams

Some people would call the assemblage of former “The View” personalities who showed up on Friday’s episode to wish Barbara Walters adieu a historic gathering.

Joy Behar has another term for it.

Behar, who served as co-host on the daytime talk show for 16 years, appeared on Tuesday’s edition of “The Wendy Williams Show” to reflect on the send-off — or, as she put it, “bitch fest.”

“Everybody came back and it was a, you know, a bitch fest,” Behar told Williams. “Look at us. I said it looked like the Last Supper with Barbara as Jesus.”

Behar also reflected on possible replacements for Walters, opining that “The View” should be an all-chicks, no-sticks affair.

“[Viewers] can see men on every show. Late night is all men. The news is mostly male. Men are having conversations on TV everywhere,” Behar said.

As for one particular man, rapper Macklemore — who raised eyebrows recently by taking to the stage in a get-up that some characterized as anti-Semitic — Behar had a few choice words.

“You know, the thing about him is, it’s such an attractive look. I mean, why is he doing that, to make him look so ridiculous?” Behar offered. “He’s an idiot.”
