Comedy Talk: Patricia Heaton Hooks the Ladies of ‘The View’

And, yes, the word “hook” in the title is a reference to Back to You star Patricia Heaton’s infamous remark on The View Monday morning that female anchors on the West Coast of the United States have a striking resemblance to hookers, what with their gigantic hoop earrings and all. I personally wouldn’t know, though, since I’m strictly straight-up East Coast.

During her turn on the couch with Barbara, Joy, Elisabeth, Whoopie, and Sherri (the ladies were out in full force!), Heaton also discussed what she did to celebrate turning the big 5-0 on March 4. She made plans for the monumental event during the writers’ strike, inviting four of her girlfriends on a fun vacation, where they did stuff like kayak with the whales and watch 27 Dresses while in bed together. The last part probably wasn’t as titillating as it sounds.

Check out the interview after the jump, and don’t forget to catch Back to You tonight at 8:30pm EST, too.
