Joy Behar Branded As The 'Rudest Celebrity' By THIS Reality TV Star

Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi has revealed who she believes is the "rudest celebrity" she has come across since starring in MTV's "Jersey Shore."

The reality star, who also appeared on the show's reboot, told TV host Andy Cohen that famous "The View" co-host Joy Behar was her first choice and recounted an unpleasant interaction she had with the comedian.

Earlier in the week, she had appeared on "The View with her cast members from "Jersey Shore: Family Vacation" and was praised by co-host Whoopi Goldberg.

On Thursday's episode of "Watch What Happens Live" with Andy Cohen, Snooki revealed to listeners who she deemed the "rudest celebrity" she has ever had the opportunity to interact with.

The reality star came on the show with her fellow cast members from "The Jersey Shore," an MTV show that ran for six seasons from 2009 to 2012 and got rebooted in 2018.

During the 'WWHL' Q&A session, she remarked that veteran "The View" co-host Behar was who she had in mind and went on to recount a bitter experience she had with the 80-year-old.

"Joy was so mean to me," she stated, according to Page Six. "She [once] cornered me in the bathroom and said, 'You're not Italian!'"

In reaction to Snooki's reveal, Cohen gasped out loud before asking her how she addressed the situation.

"I said, 'OK, ma'am,'" the reality star recounted, without adding whether she went on to say anything more.

While on "Watch What Happens Live," Snooki did not reveal the exact time when the incident occurred. However, it appears it might have happened around 2010.

Earlier that year, Behar admitted to telling a member of the "Jersey Shore" cast that they are "not even Italian" during an episode of "The View."

At the time, she didn't share details on the identity of the person but went on to mock the cast's accents and talk negatively about them.

"Let me tell you something about those kids, OK. I grew up with kids who were just like that," the 80-year-old said at the time. "When I was a kid, there were a lot of kids like that around me, OK, they're all in jail now."

She further remarked that most viewers who found the show funny were only "laughing at them."

It appears that Snooki took the remarks to heart, as she later made a viral video where she could be seen mocking the comedian by mimicking her gestures on "The View."

However, during her appearance on "The Wendy Williams Show" that same year, she claimed that she felt "bad" about making the clip, in what appeared to be a subtle apology to Behar.

Behar responded a few days later, saying that she had no issues with her being the brunt of a joke.

"I don't care if they make fun of me. It's fine. I enjoyed that sketch that they did," Beha noted at the time. "I thought it was very funny."

Snooki and the rest of the cast from the "Jersey Shore" reboot appeared on "The View" on Tuesday, which could have led to an awkward situation. However, Behar was not one of "The View's" hosts on that day for undisclosed reasons.

It turned out to be a positive interview, as co-host Goldberg spent some time heaping praise on the entire cast.

She said, per Page Six, "When they first came [to 'The View'], they were getting a lot of heat from people, and I was so glad to see them, because they were fresh, and they were just ready to do stuff, and I said to them, 'Listen. They're gonna come for you. You just gotta stay strong, no matter what.'"

Goldberg further remarked that she was "proud" of them all and how they didn't let naysayers "define" them.
