Walters' Vibrator Has A Strange Name

by Anna Klassen

It might be the word of the year, but Barbara Walters gave a whole new meaning to "selfie" Monday morning. During a segment about self love on her talk show, The View, she admitted something we can't even unlearn: Barbara Walters has a vibrator. Not only does she have a vibrator, but she named it, and apparently that name is "selfie." Sir Selfie? Squire Selfie? Sergeant Selfie? We may never know, but Walters was keen to note that "self love" (you know what I'm saying) is not something that should go away with age.

"Do you have more self-confidence, and more self-love?" McCarthy asked Walters of growing older.

"Self-love?" Walters asked.

"You know self-love, Barbara. Friday night self-love!" Sherri Shepherd clarified.

But while we wouldn't be surprised if Jenny McCarthy told the world she owned a "selfie," it came as a shock to many to learn that journalism vet Walters has her own self-love device. The host is 84 years old, and inches closer to retirement every day. She is also known to be one of the more conservative hosts, unlike younger McCarthy or comedian-turned-actress Whoopi Goldberg. So we gotta give the lady props, for breaking through the barrier of her professional stereotype, and all those ageists out there. You remember 83-year-old sexpert Sue Johanson, don't you?
