The View cohosts have reacted to former panelist Rosie O'Donnell's headline-making facelift — and the actress' comments about feminism as it relates to cosmetic procedures.
Days after the entertainer and ex-View moderator revealed that she underwent a facelift procedure, the talk show's current panel broke down the development, with some expressing shock over O'Donnell making a connection between feminism and plastic surgery.
"My friend Rosie O'Donnell is sharing how she was racked with guilt over her decision to get a facelift," Joy Behar said at the top of Friday's show. "She says she just wanted to look more rested and less haunted, but she admits she used to be against women getting work done on their faces" because, as O'Donnell said in an Instagram post, it felt like "a betrayal" of "feminism," "aging," and "our team of women worldwide."
Sunny Hostin admitted she was "surprised that someone as strong and funny and interesting as Rosie equated having work done to being anti-feminist," while Sara Haines also pushed back on O'Donnell's classification of the procedure.
"It's close to the whole tradwife vs. working woman, how we always talk about, well, is it bad, then, to want to be at home? It was always about choice," Haines said. "That's where equality comes, that's where the feminism really is. It's individual choice that makes it powerful."
Ana Navarro told the panel that she spoke with O'Donnell about the topic before the show aired, and said that she told the comedian that, for her, "being a feminist means doing something that makes you feel empowered and happy," and that O'Donnell informed her that she got the facelift "because I was looking sad when I'm feeling so happy" at this point in her life.

The arrogance of a totally inferior and stupid person such as Sonny Hostin shooting her mouth off with her opinions is always dismaying. I hope she faces terrible suffering at some point in her life for her evil. Not from me. I’m busy elsewhere.
They don’t have a clue as to how hypocritical and out of touch they are.
i couldn’t help myself and clicked on the article...they show a picture of o’donnell pre/post face lift...
My recommendation?? Get a refund you fat cow...
Yet, people who believe that control our country.
They put on makeup like Bondo.
As my boss used to say....you can’t drink her pretty.
Ha.
Once Cher was asked if she planned any more procedures or surgeries in the coming year.
“No. I think my face and my body are so tight now, if they had to have one more improving surgery I would simply explode.”
Looks like a masculine Keith Olbermann
Trump’s name did come up.
“It’s much easier to fight someone like Donald Trump, isn’t it?” Hasselbeck spat, alluding to O’Donnell’s much-publicized feud with the real estate magnet. “Because he’s obnoxious.”
The audience oohed in surprise and O’Donnell looked shocked.
I happened onto the topic of Blake Lively’s cosmetic surgery once. Sort of fascinating. It gives hope to women who feel like they aren’t gifted with the totally natural look (/S) of stars like her.
Reese Witherspoon and others drew attention from plastic surgeons for looking younger year by year instead of older.
One that shocked me decades ago was when I found out Racquel Welch had implants early in her 1960s career, and a men’s magazine showed how she didn’t really need them but wanted even more of an edge in the business. She once answered a reporter “Hey, you’re either born with it like me or you aren’t.”—lying.

How is that equality? As a man, I had no choice, I had to work.
“A hook it had in it, last time I saw that face.” Yoda Dangerfield
They just tipped up the “resting bitch face” lines at the corners of her mouth. It almost looks worse, because it’s unnatural. Now it wouldn’t take much makeup to turn her into The Joker.
Lifting it would take a forklift
That’s because they live in a bubble.
“O’Donnell informed her that she got the facelift “because I was looking sad when I’m feeling so happy” at this point in her life.”
Does anyone buy that O’Donnell is anywhere in the same universe with “happy?”
Makes her look like Barney Frank.
