Joy Behar slips up while talking about Zendaya being crazy about Tom Holland's 'rizz'
According to The US Sun, Behar opened the discussion after the show returned from a commercial break by saying, "Okay, so the actor Zendaya and her husband..."
She could not seem to make up her mind and asked, "Is that her husband?" to which Haines responded, "No, boyfriend."
"Boyfriend, Tom Holland," said Behar, correcting herself, before continuing, "(They) have been dating for a few years now, and she is a few inches taller than him."
"She (Zendaya) recently said that it is his (Holland's) charisma or as she calls it 'rizz' that she is crazy about," noted the co-host, before showing a clip from Zendaya's interview and asking the fellow panelists if they would have been okay with dating a shorter guy if they possessed the "rizz."
The co-hosts all agreed, adding that Holland was attractive and successful enough for his height to not matter anyway.

During the light-hearted interview covering topics such as the actress' TikTok habits and her favorite red carpet looks, she mentioned her boyfriend, Holland, when asked to whom she sends the most number of memes.
When asked who has "has the most rizz" among the 'Dune' cast members, Zendaya jokingly replied, "Me. Hello?"
She then continued, "I don't know. Rizz is short for charisma, right? Everybody's kind of got their own. I think someone who has beautiful charisma, not on the 'Dune' cast, but personally, works for me, is Mr Tom Holland."
Zendaya and Holland have been public about their romance since 2021.
