Joy Behar shocked the masses by giving Star Trek actor Anson Mount an unexpected smooch on the Wednesday, July 22, episode of The View.
On the latest installment, the actor came in to frame and was greeting the co-hosts, but as he gave Behar a kiss on the cheek, she embraced him, and the two locked lips. The kiss wasn’t fleeting — as it lasted a few seconds, with Mount hilariously lifting one of his feet in the air.

Mount realized he had lipstick on his mouth, prompting Sunny Hostin to give him a tissue, which he used to wipe off the makeup while smiling and settling down at the table.
“Well no wonder Joy has been talking about you all morning,” Hostin joked.
“You know something, I’m old, but I’m not dead,” Behar quipped, to which Mount said, “That’s it, Joy, because I am.”
