Jenny McCarthy is reportedly joining The View. McCarthy would be replacing Joy Behar, who is leaving the morning talkshow in August, a source told Us Weekly.
"She is in serious talks right now. Her show isn't quite working out, so she's definitely open to it.""The cast get a kick out of Jenny," a source said. "She's a good fit. She may not be able to carry a show, but she works well with a group ensemble."
Brooke Shields is also again rumored to be joining The View. She was previously rumored to replace Behar back in April - however, another insider told Us Weekly that Shields could take over Elizabeth Hasselbeck's seat. In March, Hasselbeck was speculated to be exiting the show, but co-host Barbara Walters denied her departure.
During the past several years, the 40-year-old has dabbled in hosting, from reporting from Times Square for New Year's Rockin' Eve special to her own VH1 show, The Jenny McCarthy Show.
The cable show received a seven-show pickup after its initial airing, but the viewers didn't seem to catch on to the late-night show. It has not been cancelled by VH1 yet, but it is unlikely that it will be renewed for next season.
