'The View' Casting News, Update: Michelle Collins Officially Signed In as Season 19 Co-Host

Earlier last week, it has been reported that Michelle Collins "was in discussions to become a full-time contributor" in the upcoming 19th season of ABC's hit talk show, "The View."

The report from The Wrap stated that the frequent guest host will be joined by Molly Sims who is "also expected to be a member" in the current season.

Then recently, a report from TV Line confirmed that the comedian is officially making the list as the 15th co-host in the history of the show. The news was announced on the program's morning airing with Collins making her grand entrance to the tune of Jay-Z and Alicia Key's "Empire State of Mind."

She will be officially starting her co-hosting gig when the show returns for its 19th Season in September. She will, however, continue to make regular appearances until the show goes on hiatus next month.

"These past few months have been the most fun and exciting of my career, and I couldn't be happier to join such an awesome, smart, accomplished and funny group of women," Collins told TV Line. "Ever since the age of four (and the height of 5' 6") it's been my dream to host a talk show, and the fact that I now get to do just that every day with an amazing, hard-working team of producers, writers, cast and crew is beyond my wildest expectations. Many thanks to the people at ABC for inviting me to be a part of this team, and specifically to the great Barbara Walters and Whoopi Goldberg, whose support has meant the world to me."
