Ana Navarro left embarrassed on air after guest Josh Gad playfully calls out 'The View' host's cue card glance
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Ana Navarro was called “inauthentic” by guest actor Josh Gad on the show after he noticed ‘The View’ star looking down at the cue cards to introduce him.
The 42-year-old actor ensured that Navarro didn’t hear the last of it as he called her out for this blunder before everyone.
The incident happened when Gad recently came on ‘The View’ to promote his Broadway musical Gutenberg, Season 2 of ‘Wolfe Like Me’, and the upcoming ‘Frozen’ sequels.

The 51-year-old Navarro while introducing Gad to the audience said, “Josh, we are so happy that you're here. We love-”
Gad noticed Navarro looking down at her cue cards and before she could complete her statement, Gad cut in and said, “You had to look down at that? For that? Why are you...”
He then took her cards and mimicked her Navarro’s opening. Pretending to read the cards, Josh repeated: "You're like, 'Josh, we are so happy...”
Navarro and her ‘The View’ co-hosts laughed at Gad’s dig as the political commentator, embarrassed, hid her face under her hair.
He continued: "I question the authenticity of that statement.”
Gad then cheerfully stated, "I'm so happy. This is the best view in town guys."
Navarro appeared to struggle to find her footing after being called out, referring to ‘The Rocker’ star as an actress as she stumbled over her words.
Everyone in the audience laughed heartily at the incident between Navarro and Gad before moving on with the show.
