Joy Behar offers bizarre take on ‘SNL’ ‘hot women’ controversy, claims ‘model-level’ like Gisele Bündchen ‘not funny’

Hot or not: Joy Behar edition.

“The View” co-host and comedian provided her unfiltered opinion on a woman’s viral TikTok claiming “hot women” are never hired on “Saturday Night Live.”

“First of all, it’s a comedy show, not a beauty pageant,” Behar, 81, said Thursday. “It’s not for men to ogle the women trying to get a laugh.”

But the fiery redhead also asserted female comedians shouldn’t be intimidatingly beautiful, either, because audiences will be “too busy looking at your boobs and working out something going on in their head, especially the men.”

She didn’t limit her critiques to the women of “SNL” either, adding that legendary late cast members John Belushi and Chris Farley “were not my ideal dates.”

“So the men are not that hot [either] — meaning sexy,” she quipped. “I think that’s what they [the TikTok] mean because the women are attractive obviously.”

Two weeks ago, Bündchen appeared on “The View” to promote her new cookbook, “Nourish.”

Thursday’s panel discussion comes after a woman, who goes by Jahelis on TikTok, shared a now infamous hot take that “SNL” has never hired a “hot” female cast member in its nearly 50-year run.

“I’m not saying that every single woman who has been a cast member on ‘SNL’ is ugly,” she said. “It’s just that none of them have ever been, like, hot.”

Jahelis noted current cast member Heidi Gardner often portrays the “super hot and super dumb” girl in sketches even though “she’s not that pretty.” She also referred to female alums Maya Rudolph as “really beautiful” and Kristen Wiig as “very conventionally attractive,” but said neither of them is necessarily hot.

The Post contacted reps for “SNL” on Wednesday and has yet to hear back.

Current cast members Sarah Sherman and newcomer Chloe Troast responded to the claims, however.

“Just found out I’m not hot,” Sherman tweeted. “Please give me and my family space to grieve privately and uglily at this time.”
