'The View' Weighs in on J. Crew Pink Toenail Gate: Sherri Shepherd Won't Paint Son's Toenails: Video

The View cohost Sherri Shepherd says she understands why people are up in arms about a J. Crew newsletter featuring the brand’s creative director painting her son’s toenails pink, saying she would never paint her son's nails. She says her son Jeffrey has asked before if he could try on his mother’s makeup, but she says it’s because he is constantly surrounded by women. She says she tells her son the makeup is for mommy, not him.

The View cohost Sherri Shepherd says she understands why people are up in arms about a J. Crew newsletter featuring the brand’s creative director painting her son’s toenails pink, saying she would never paint her son's nails.

“He’s a boy, he’s 3, he don’t need his toenails and fingernails painted,” Shepherd says.

She says her son Jeffrey has asked before if he could try on his mother’s makeup, but she says it’s because he is constantly surrounded by women. She says she tells her son the makeup is for mommy, not him.

Shepherd says she’s not concerned painting her son’s toenails might make him gay, she just doesn’t think it’s appropriate for boys to wear nail polish.
