Joy Behar, 82, fakes an orgasm on ‘The View’ set: ‘Oh God, I love it!’

Joy Behar appears to be feeling frisky this festive season.

On Friday’s episode of “The View” the 82-year-old was asked to demonstrate her “resting gift face” — a look made when receiving a present that you don’t want.

“It’s really nothing,” the funnywoman told her co-hosts, saying it was easy to pretend to be happy while unwrapping an unwanted gift.

“It’s not that hard. It’s like faking an orgasm. Piece of cake,” Behar continued, before demonstrating a contrived climax for the audience.

“Wow! Oh, god, I love it,” Behar moaned, pulling her own version of Meg Ryan’s famous scene from the 1989 romantic comedy “When Harry Met Sally,” in which she pretends to have an orgasm in the middle of Katz’s Deli in New York City.

Behar’s co-host Ana Navarro chimed in, quipping “I’ll have what she’s having” — a reference to the retort that Estelle Reiner following the fake orgasm in “When Harry Met Sally.”

Behar’s cohost Alyssa Farah Griffin also recounted a time when her now-husband Justin Griffin, gave her a Cartier box that she thought was going to be the watch she wanted. However, it turned out to be personalized stationery.

That too, garnered a “resting gift face” but her then-fiancé had a trick up his sleeve.

“He waited a half-hour to give me the actual watch,” Griffin confessed.
