Joy Behar Mistakenly Congratulates The Wrong Jimmy On ‘The View’

It's an easy mistake to make, and Joy Behar did just that on a recent broadcast of 'The View.' In an amusing mishap, the comedian and host congratulated Jimmy Fallon instead of Jimmy Kimmel for his role in hosting the Oscars. Despite having the intent to reach out to the right Jimmy, Behar experienced a mix-up that led to laughter and an admission of her 'technological stupidity.'

Joy Behar’s Oscars-Related Email Goes to the Wrong Jimmy

'The View' is known for its lively discussions and candid admissions, and Behar's recent error provides yet another memorable moment for the show’s history. Behar intended to praise Jimmy Kimmel for his Oscars hosting, particularly for a political joke that resonated with her. In an attempt to send a congratulatory email to Kimmel, Behar accidentally sent it to fellow late-night host Jimmy Fallon, who, notably, has never hosted the Oscars.

The Panel Laughs Off Behar's Blunder

The candid reveal sparked laughter among the 'The View' panel, with co-hosts chiming in with jokes and reassurances. Sara Haines playfully commented that Behar was now 'dead' to Fallon, while Whoopi Goldberg added that such mix-ups are common. Behar’s colleagues supported her with the understanding that everyone makes mistakes, sometimes sending emails to the wrong person.

Technological Confusion but Good Humor Prevails

Despite the mix-up, the mood remained light on the set of 'The View.' Behar jokingly expressed her surprise at not accidentally emailing former President Jimmy Carter instead, highlighting her self-proclaimed lack of tech savvy. Her co-hosts rallied around her, emphasizing that such blunders are a part of life, even for television personalities.
