Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders got personal with the hosts of The View Friday, even revealing his celebrity crush, who happened to be in the room at the time.
“Uh, Joy,” Sanders replied when asked to name his celebrity crush, gesturing to host Joy Behar. Behar fanned herself with papers on the table as Sanders and the other women laughed.
“We are going to be hearing about this at every single morning meeting next week and the week after,” guest host Sunny Hostin joked.
It seems the feeling is mutual: Behar said in October that she is “aroused” by Sanders.
