AceShowbiz - On Friday, October 4's episode of "The View", actor Nathan Lane made an appearance to promote his Netflix series. After complimenting Joy Behar's timeless beauty, Lane surprised her with a unique birthday present: a "hot Italian pizza delivery man" stripper.
As a man dressed as a pizza delivery guy walked onto the stage, the audience erupted in cheers. Discarding his baseball cap and shirt, he launched into a seductive dance routine that had Behar blushing and her co-hosts in stitches. The comedian delighted in the performance, laughing and clapping along.
Lane, who has been close friends with Behar for years, explained his choice of gift by declaring, "Because Joy is still a hot Italian woman!" Behar, known for her quick wit, quipped, "You know what they say - Black don't crack, but Italian doesn't either."
Despite being overjoyed by the surprise, Behar joked, "Where's my pizza?" The hot slice was later brought out at the end of the show, much to the amusement of the guests.
Behar's 82nd birthday celebration marks a stark contrast to her reaction the previous year. "I can't get excited. I'm just glad I'm alive," she said at the time. "You get to a point where you wake up in the morning saying, 'I'm still here, my God!'"
This year, however, Behar embraced her special day with her signature humor and the support of her close friends and fans.
