Joy Behar blatantly shut down Alyssa Farah Griffin. The incident took place on the latest broadcast of The View. Some fans are supporting Joy for the way she handled the new co-host, who joined earlier this month. The 33-year-old talked about a comment she made about “being old.”

Joy wasn’t here for it. The 79-year-old didn’t want to listen to a younger woman discuss aging. On Friday’s show, the women discussed Gwyneth Paltrow’s essay about turning 50. As TV Shows Ace previously reported, Joy cracked a joke about the A-list star, and one of her co-hosts called her out for going off-script.

Alyssa Farah Griffin makes a wild comment about aging

Joy Behar asked the oldest members of the group if they agree that “time flies.” They discussed Gwyneth Paltrow’s personal essay that talks about her biggest regrets. Joy asked the table if they experienced a “mid-life crisis.” Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro talked about their own experiences.

Joy asked Alyssa Farah Griffin if she’s had any regrets in her life. She admitted that she has regrets but she always tries to “learn from them.” Alyssa then added that she is “very aware of the passage of time.” That’s when she shared that she’s 33 years old, much to the chagrin of the audience.

The redhead host immediately cut her off. Joy Behar retorted: “Oh, for God’s sake, I got hula hoops at home older than that.” The audience laughed while Alyssa explained that she has to deal with her biological clock. She admitted that she had a “conversation about waiting” with her husband.

Sunny joked that her eggs will eventually get old. However, Sara Haines assured Alyssa that everything will work out at the right time. She told her co-host not to “stress about that” since most women feel the pressure at that age. However, it was Joy Behar who won over fans.
