Sunny Hostin Negotiated Her View Contract With Sherri Shepherds Intel

Sherri Shepherd might want to consider being an agent when shes done hosting daytime talk.

Sunny Hostin revealed on Shepherds show this week that Shepherd played a critical role in Hostin negotiating her contract on The View . (Watch the video below.)

While Hostin, who started with The View in 2016, and Shepherd, who left the ABC talk show in 2014, did not overlap, the programs sisterhood still proved invaluable to get increases from the brass, they said.

Shepherd disclosed the pay and perks of her cohosts, Hostin recalled. That gave Hostin all the ammunition she needed to demand more than she was offered.

Hostin recalled Shepherd calling her out of the blue and asking about the possible extras on the table, including a car stipend. But that wasnt all.

You basically went over your salary for the entire time you were there, Hostin said to the Sherri host. You gave me everyones salary, and I went back to my agent, and I was like, You did not get me enough money.

Shepherd said she was merely paying it forward from when former View alum Rosie ODonnell practiced the same contract transparency.

It was very helpful, Sherri, Hostin said.
