Joy Behar had a shocking moment on Wednesday's episode ofThe View when she pulled guest Anson Mount in for a long kiss.
Behar, 83, a longtime comedian and staple of the ABC chat show, surprised viewers when she pulled Mount, 53, who stars on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, in close and kissed him shortly after he took the stage during the live episode, Entertainment Weekly reported.
Mount walked onto the stage and greeted Behar's co-hosts, Whoopi Goldberg and Sara Haines, as the crowd cheered. But when he got to Behar, she embraced him and went in for a kiss on the cheek. She then puckered her lips, and when Mount leaned in, wrapped her arm around him and pulled him in for a lengthier kiss, EW continued. Mount was left with Behar's lipstick on his face.
“I’m old, but I’m not dead,” Behar added.
Behar and Mount's Previous Encounters
After the kiss, Sunny Hostin said, “This year marks the... are you okay?” wondering if Behar needed to collect herself. Behar responded by saying, “I need a little bit of a touch-up. Last time he was here, he brought me flowers for my birthday, and it’s never been the same between us.”
Mount replied, “I got married, so...” which had Behar saying, “That’s what I mean!”
Mount married his longtime girlfriend, Darah Trang, in 2018.
Mount plays Captain Christopher Pike on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds. Check out the trailer for season 4 of the series, which debuts Thursday on Paramount+.
Behar Has Navigated Health Problems
Earlier this month, Behar admitted on The View that she's been navigating health problems that include dizzy spells.
“I got acupuncture because I’m dizzy,” she shared, PEOPLE reported. “I walk, and I’m dizzy. Has anybody noticed that I walk like I’m drunk? I’m not drinking, I don’t drink.”
Behar joked that "Between the Botox, the Ozempic, and the acupuncture, I’m more full of needles than a drug addict.”
However, the star also made it clear that she needs to keep an eye on the behavior.
“Well, you know, I fall a lot. The main thing, just to talk seriously, when Bob Saget fell, he died. If you hit your head and you feel dizzy or you have blurred vision or you feel like you want to go to sleep, go to the doctor because that will kill you,” she said. “But I’ve fallen a lot. I fall all the time. I’m a klutz! But this chair, this chair was like the exorcist. It was spring!”
