NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: The little funny banter sessions between Whoopi Goldberg and Joy Behar is considered to be part of 'The View' by the audience. Another such exchange that bordered on the awkward came on September 22 when Behar called out Goldberg for her confusing reaction.

The incident happened on Thursday’s show, when Whoopi pretended to fall sleep during the hot topic discussion. The View's co-hosts were giving their opinion about an interview clip where former United States president Donald Trump was talking about the lawsuit against him.

After the video clip ended, the camera focused on Whoopi, who pretended to be asleep. This reaction by Goldberg left Behar astonished and made her ask "What are you doing Whoopi?" Someone piped in, saying, "She's thinking about it." Whoopi then opened her eyes and gave a look to Joy. "I'm thinking him into jail," she clarified. Sunny Hostin jumped in the conversation and said "Cause you can just think about stuff and stuff just happens."



 

The conversation continued and Sara Haines spoke about how she feels that the Trump family is going to go bankrupt soon. As soon as she ended her statement, the camera again focused on Whoopi who was seen striking the same 'sleeping pose' again. "There she goes!" Sunny said.

"She's thinking," Joy said, as Whoopi held the pose for a bit longer than the first time. Her antics drew a reaction not just from her fellow panel members, but also garnered some hilarious reactions on Twitter. “Love, love the show, and Whoopi, we are with you thinking him into jail. Seriously. Although I've been saying this for a while, he needs to be in jail,” wrote a user.



 



 

Another user wrote, ‘The View is the greatest talk show in the history of television, and this 7-minute segment deserves another Emmy, especially for Whoopi’. The third user said, #TheView 'Thinking him into JAIL!!!!" "Whoopi's method seems solid," added another fan.



 



 

Earlier this week, the conversation between Behar and Goldberg had taken an NSFW turn when Behar credited the light in her vagina for the glow on her face. “I want to say that the ceremonies continue in the U.K. … Oh, wait a minute. Before we do that, I want to point out one more thing,” Goldberg said, turning to Behar. “Pop pop fizz fizz, oh what a relief it is.” Behar didn’t take long to understand the reference and said, “You looking at me?” to which Goldberg joked, “I am. I feel better. My stomach just settled down.”

Whoopi then went on to mention that ever since the latest season of the show started, Behar has had a charismatic glow on her face. “Are you pregnant?” Whoopi asked jokingly.
To which Behar replied “There’s a light in my vagina. I don’t know. And it’s emanating through my entire being.”
