John Leguizamo didn’t hold back when he opened up about what made him start using Viagra while discussing his sex life.
During an appearance on The View, the acclaimed actor talked about how sex differs as you get older while speaking to co-hosts Joy Behar, Sara Haines, Ana Navarro, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin.
It all started moments after he sat down with the ladies, and Behar asked him if he ‘liked our hot topic that we did on sex?’
After being put on the spot, Leguizamo began stuttering before gathering himself, which led to him being very open and honest.
‘I’m on Propecia, so it’s a different thing,’ the John Wick star, 64, said, in a reference to the hair loss medication.
‘Propecia for your hair makes your thing not work as much, so then you have to take Viagra to undo the Propecia. But, I want to have good hair,’ he continued, before joking how ‘it’s an up-and-down thing.’

As the ladies and the live audience burst into loud laughter, Griffin then cracked, ‘Literally!’
Leguizamo (born John Alberto Leguizamo Peláez) chuckled along with everyone and then apologized: ‘I’m sorry I started so rudely.’
Navarro chimed in: ‘Go to Turkey, get some hair plugs,’ before gesturing he should continue ‘[to have sex.]’
The hilarious exchange came on the heels of the women of The View dishing on actress Kate Hudson’s recent comments about having sex in her forties.
During an interview with Bustle the Almost Famous star confessed she enjoys the ‘freedom’ of intimacy as she gets older, while also stipulating that she’s ‘not a big fan of performative sex,’ along with the idea that ‘sex isn’t supposed to be pretty.’
‘What does she mean it’s not supposed to pretty?’ Behar, 82, asked moments after the clip was shown, which set up Navarro to bring up porn.
‘If you ever see porn – not that I do – the women always have high-heeled shoes on, they’re always perfect,” Navarro, 53, ‘That’s performative sex, I think,’ all while agreeing with Hudson’s premise.
‘The older you get, the less inhibited you are, the more you know about the stuff and what buttons to push and pull and press,”‘ the political strategist and commentator explained, for which Haines, 47, jumped in, ‘What are you pulling?’
