Nicole Arbour accused "The View" co-hosts of faking their apology following their controversial nurse remarks. The YouTube star who drew a lot of backlash herself over her infamous "Dear Fat People" video claimed in an interview on Opie and Jim Norton radio show that she overheard the all-female panel bad-mouthed nurses backstage.

"Backstage, I heard the girls being like, 'Oh yeah, our nurse jokes didn't go over well so we have to apologize because they're tweeting us too much,' " Arbour said. "And I'm like, 'you all are p***ies.' See, I can sit in my jokes and be like, yeah, I made them, I think it's funny. Whatever. But they go on there and make a fake apology. When the cameras weren't rolling, Michelle [Collins] was like 'Yeah, that's not a real profession. They're wannabe doctors.' "

A representative for ABC, the home of the talk show, quickly denied Arbour's claim. "Nicole and Michelle were never backstage at the same time. Michelle was on the stage from the moment the show started until after the show ended. Nicole was brought down to the backstage area after the show started," the rep said.

Nicole Arbour showed up on "The View" to discuss her mean jokes about fat people. She defended herself, saying that the video was just satire that was meant to offend people. But Joy Behar argued, "I'm a comic, so if I'm gonna do a joke about a fat person, I'm gonna say I'm fat first. You're not fat - that's the problem."
