'Over My Dead Body': Jenny McCarthy Will Never Return to The View
Jenny McCarthy rejects offers to rejoin The View, citing its political shift and her brief 2013-2014 tenure marked by pressure to discuss politics.
- Earlier this week on the Katie Miller Podcast, Jenny McCarthy, 53-year-old actress and Masked Singer judge, said she will never return to The View after rejecting reunion invitations.
- Hired as a pop-culture panelist, Jenny McCarthy said producers of The View told her to 'get political' after a week despite being brought on for 'light, fluffy, and fun' commentary.
- Fellow ex-cohost Sherri Shepherd backed McCarthy, saying focus groups drove The View producers to reintroduce politics, and recalled wardrobe changes like glasses to boost McCarthy's political credibility.
- After Barbara Walters' exit, Jenny McCarthy recalled producers dismissing multiple staff and said 'They've let all of us go,' with both her and Sherri Shepherd leaving the show.
- Now more politically vocal, Jenny McCarthy credits the latest presidential administration for boosting her confidence, remains an outspoken childhood vaccines critic since the mid-2000s, and continues judging on The Masked Singer.
