This clip just goes to show that lack of sleep can make you do crazy things. During a segment on losing weight and improving sleep, Barbara Walters and Sherri Shepherd preview the NightWave Sleep Assistant, a device meant to make people fall asleep faster on ‘The View’ (weekdays, syndicated).
But then, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Whoopi Goldberg sneak onstage and help themselves to the sleep aid. “I want the blue thing! I have three kids that don’t sleep,” Hasselbeck said. Once they get their hands on the device, the two interlopers walk offstage and the segment proceeds as if nothing happened.
