A video has resurfaced of Joy Behar admitting on ABC’s “The View” in 2016 that she darkened her skin while dressing as an “African woman” for Halloween in the 1970s.
In the clip, Ms. Behar boasted about how she has naturally curly hair and gave evidence by showing a photo of her 29-year-old self at a Halloween party.
Shocked at the difference in her appearance, former co-host Raven-Symoné asked, “Joy, are you black?”
“I was so cute,” Ms. Behar said. “I was 29. It was a Halloween party. I went as a beautiful African woman.”
Ms. Behar added that she wore makeup “that was a little bit darker than my skin.”
