"First of all, I'd want to say that when I was dismissed from 'Good Morning America' years back," Behar said, shocking guest Kumail Nanjiani.

She insisted, "I was the worst receptionist they've ever had!" Co-host Sara Haines confirmed the "true story."

"So I got axed, and they sent me to Chippendales as my farewell present," Behar told Nanjiani, who stars in the Hulu miniseries "Welcome to Chippendales,"

that she did everything in the male striptease performance, even "put[ting] the money in the boys', you know, thingy." "It's fabulous!" she said, and co-host Sunny Hostin added, "Chippendales is a delightful place!"

Behar told Nanjiani, "Anyway, so I'm familiar with Chippendales," who laughed. After calming down, the 44-year-old actor replied, "So that was a good and horrible day for you. You lost a job but gained much more."

Behar laughed. She's known for handling pink skips. Since 1997, the media personality has been a panelist on "The View."

I liked being fired. I had become tired of the show. "I don't recall why," she told Time in June.
