Joy Behar was all kinds of brassy sympathy on her show Tuesday night as she chatted with U.S. figure skater Johnny Weir about how “two Canadian commentatehs” clearly couldn’t get ready for Weir’s unique brand of fierceness on ice during a regrettable moment of Olympic reportage. “That’s nasty,” said Behar after relaying their on-air slurs. Weir, who brought a Marie Antoinette-themed coiffure and his diplomatic attitude about the unfortunate incident to Behar’s set, concurred. “That’s very nasty,” he said. They also agreed on the obvious fact that Weir is “fabulous,” as his hairdo only further demonstrated. –KA
