Sara Haines attempts to morph into a penis on “The View”
Sara Haines, The View's reigning queen of gay volleyball leagues, attempted to morph into a penis live on air.
On Monday, the ladies of the long-running talk show discussed Max's new reality series Naked Attraction, described by moderator Whoopi Goldberg as a show "where contestants choose dates based on their naked bodies."
After cohost Ana Navarro joked that the show should be called "Naked and Well-Lit" — "Not Naked and Well-Hung?" Goldberg cracked in response — Haines jumped in with a bit of performance art to illustrate a new point.

"I don't feel confident naked. It might be my own body dysmorphic disorder, but I'm not going to go and give my most vulnerable self and say, by the way, let's just go down and strip on out. The other thing is, the human body, there are parts that are beautiful. A penis? Not one of them," Haines said, while closing one eye and contorting her body to mimic the male anatomy — not unlike how Kristen Wiig does during a memorable scene in the 2011 comedy Bridesmaids. "And I would say the vagina is barely above that."
Legal expert Sunny Hostin jumped in to admit that she binged the show with her husband, Manny, and observed "some pretty penises" in the series, which inspired Goldberg to hit her iconic bell to move the conversation along.

Later, in a separate chat about Haines' nephew's recent wedding, Navarro praised her fellow panelist for sticking to a wholesome topic.
"I'm just so thankful to you for finally bringing up a subject today that's sweet and pure. It's been a heavy one," Navarro said, as Haines again twisted her face and body to recall the phallic moment that occurred mere minutes prior.
The View airs weekdays at 11 a.m. ET/PT on ABC.
