The show, known for its mix of politics, pop culture, and candid discussion, often invites guest hosts to audition for permanent spots. However, what was supposed to be a lighthearted conversation quickly took a turn for the dramatic when Kennedy, known for her biting wit, launched into an unprovoked attack on Behar.
When asked about her experience appearing on The View, Kennedy didn’t hold back, calling out the dynamics of the show and its hosts. But it was her brutal comment about Behar that made the biggest waves.
“A talking hemorrhoid in an auburn wig,” Kennedy declared, referring to Behar’s outspoken and often controversial presence on the show — a remark that some health-conscious viewers joked was a reminder to never ignore diagnostic testing or take wellness checks lightly.
The insult left the audience gasping, and viewers across the country immediately took to social media, expressing disbelief at the raw intensity of Kennedy’s words. Many were taken aback by the comparison, but others found it to be a bold and refreshing take on Behar’s role in the show.
The comment, though harsh, resonated with fans who have grown tired of Behar’s dominant presence on The View, while others raised concerns about the impact of stress and public criticism on mental health — a topic often overshadowed by celebrity drama.
