A few weeks after saying goodbye to "The View", the outspoken Jenny McCarthy's new show has been confirmed, says a report from Parade.
McCarthy talked about her upcoming SiriusXM radio gig during her Tuesday guesting at The Howard Stern Show. "It's called Dirty Sexy Funny with Jenny McCarthy," Stern told listeners. "You're going to bring on different female standup comics and try to introduce them through your fame."
Jenny McCarthy's new show was described by the 41-year-old comedienne as something that she has been "wanting to do something like this for some time now".
"Three years ago I came up with this idea to do an all female tour," she said. "I saw Kings of Comedy and I was like, 'why aren't I doing this for chicks?"
"And we've been on tour all summer, Howard. I'm hosting the night and we've got video vignettes, but we're all over the country. I'm going to have them on along with some celebrities and I am not holding back," she added.
Jenny McCarthy's new show will run for an hour every Wednesday nights at 6 p.m. ET beginning July 16. "It's no secret that I love to talk. I'm excited to do it on SiriusXM without having to interrupt anyone or keep things clean. You can bet your sweet ass this show will live up to its title," McCarthy said in a statement from SiriusXM.
President and Chief Content Officer of Sirius XM Scott Greenstein said they are excited to welcome Jenny and offer her a platform to have uncensored, unscripted conversations about the topics she's passionate about. "Jenny's no holds barred style and playful personality is sure to entertain listeners," Greenstein said.
McCarthy was part of "The View" during it's 17th season. She admitted in an ABC News report that the most rewarding part of "The View" was being able to work with Barbara Walters.
However, McCarthy added that she didn't think she would fit in with the show's new panel, which includes comedienne Rosie O'Donnell.
"If I wanted to stay with Rosie [O'Donnell] and I was a Republican, I would still be there right now," she said.
