Joy Behar offers bizarre take on ‘SNL’ ‘hot women’ controversy, claims ‘model-level’ like Gisele Bündchen ‘not funny’
NY Post
Hot or not: Joy Behar edition.
“The View” co-host and comedian provided her unfiltered opinion on a woman’s viral TikTok claiming “hot women” are never hired on “Saturday Night Live.”
“First of all, it’s a comedy show, not a beauty pageant,” Behar, 81, said Thursday. “It’s not for men to ogle the women trying to get a laugh.”
But the fiery redhead also asserted female comedians shouldn’t be intimidatingly beautiful, either, because audiences will be “too busy looking at your boobs and working out something going on in their head, especially the men.”
She didn’t limit her critiques to the women of “SNL” either, adding that legendary late cast members John Belushi and Chris Farley “were not my ideal dates.”
“So the men are not that hot [either] — meaning sexy,” she quipped. “I think that’s what they [the TikTok] mean because the women are attractive obviously.”
