One of The View co-hosts stunned the rest of the panel with a rather shocking admission of backstage meltdowns on set.
The disclosure occurred during the Hot Topics segment of Wednesday’s show, when Whoopi Goldberg mentioned a recent article concerning Gen Z in the workplace.
The article revealed that many Gen Z (who are typically born between the mid-1990s and mid-2000s) workers are finding their ‘safe space’ in workplace bathrooms.
Goldberg, 69, insisted that she was her own safe space, while Sunny Hostin, 56, said she has, ‘never felt the luxury to cry at work.’
‘I just try to get my work done, be as excellent as I can and go home and chill out, but I don’t know,’ Hostin said.
It was then that one of hosts admitted to crying at work, the youngest in The View panel, Alyssa Farah Griffin, 35.

It was then that one of hosts admitted to crying at work, the youngest in The View panel, Alyssa Farah Griffin, 35.
‘I cry at work but I hide it, so my bosses will never know,’ Griffin said, which clearly stunned Hostin, who asked, ‘You cry at work?’
‘I have cried at this job at least a half a dozen times, are you kidding me?’ Griffin said with a laugh, adding facetiously, ‘Have you done this job?’
Griffin added that her revelation reminded her of a meme from The Simpsons which she showed to the crowd, where Bart Simpson is showing his friend Milhouse where he goes to cry, adding, ‘That’s every corner of this building.’
Joy Behar then asked, ‘What did you cry about? Give me an example,’ as Griffin admitted, ‘This is a very hard job to do, and I, oftentimes, have the only opinion that’s different at a table of five people.’
Sara Haines, 47, chimed in and said, ‘Let me clarify, it’s not just a Gen Z problem,’ as Griffin joked that Haines has ‘cried on air.’
‘Gen Z and maybe the generation before are talking about it because they can call it something. For years and decades and millenia, we have have all channeled it into other places,’ Haines added.
Haines admitted she does cry at work, and when Hostin asked what she cries about, Haines admitted, ‘Every breakup I’ve ever went through. I try to hide it as well, but I don’t hide in bathrooms because I hate bathrooms.’
‘Where I camped out was I took a coffee run with a girlfriend and come back very puffy,’ Haines admitted.

Goldberg chimed in and said, ‘The thing that shocks me, it’s like, there is nothing that people should be able to do to you to make you cry, because let us support you, because nobody should be crying at this job, nobody,’ as the audience applauded
Griffin then added, ‘I would like to state, for the record, this is a great job, and every time I have cried, (producer) Brian (Teta) gives great hugs.’

Griffin joined The View as a permanent host in 2022, after making several guest-hosting appearances in 2021 and 2022.
She previously served as the Press Secretary for Vice President Mike Pence, Press Secretary of the Department of Defense and the White House Director of Strategic Communications during the first Donald Trump administration.
