He will co-host ?The View,? ?soon,? she posted. The announcement will be interesting for Rosie watchers who saw the talk show host engage in another conflict last year with Kelly Ripa over the former ‘American Idol’ contestant. After the ?Live With Regis & Kelly? co-host chastised Clay for covering her mouth during a broadcast. “Oh, that’s a no-no,” she snapped at Clay. “I don’t know where that hand’s been, honey.”Rosie responded on ?The View,? with a comment that led many to wonder if she accidentally outed Aiken. “To me, that’s a homophobic remark,” she said. “If that was a straight man, if that was a cute man, if that was a guy that she didn’t question his sexuality, she would have said a different thing. I guarantee if that was Mario Lopez, she would not have said the same thing.”
