Sherri Shepherd and Jenny McCarthy are out at “The View,” but producers may already have an idea who they want to fill their empty seats..
According to TMZ.com, Rosie O’Donnell might be making a return. Producers are also “very interested” in bringing Laila Ali on as a new co-host. Neither the comedian nor the female boxer have not commented on those rumors at this time.
ABC said the show is going in an exciting new direction; insisers told TMZ that could mean permanently adding some men to the mix. Supposedly Ross Mathews might be taking a seat at the table next season.
