The “View” co-hosts surprised Joy Behar with a male stripper for her upcoming birthday.

Behar, who turns 82 Monday, celebrated her big day during Friday’s episode of the ABC talk show, but things quickly escalated when her close friend Nathan Lane appeared as a guest.

After his interview wrapped up, co-host Ana Navarro asked the actor, “Did you come here empty-handed for Joy’s birthday?”

A man wearing a pizza T-shirt and a baseball cap then strutted onto the stage and approached Behar while carrying a pizza box.

“Bring it, bring it, bring it, bring it!” the TV host said while motioning him to come toward her seat.

The women brought out the faux pizza delivery man once again at the end of the show, and he continued dancing shirtless while Navarro asked whether he could return to the show “without a shirt.”

Elsewhere in the episode, Behar poked fun at her age, joking that she could not say how old she was turning because she did not want people to “fact-check” her.

The comedian has never been one to shy away from making racy jokes and comments on the daytime series.

Most recently, she criticized 37-year-old “Hills” alum Kristin Cavallari for breaking up with her 24-year-old boyfriend, Mark Estes, over not being “worldly,” saying at least he could “find [her] G-spot.”

Prior to that, Behar expressed interest in getting “it on with a lady” when she turns 90.

The Emmy winner has also detailed meeting her husband, Steve Janowitz, at a partial nudist colony but clarified that she was “dressed.”
