Bristol Palin's baby daddy is helping ABC's "The View" in its first face-off against "The Talk."
Levi Johnston will appear on the ABC talk show on Oct. 18, the same day "The Talk" debuts on CBS.
Johnston became a tabloid superstar after impregnating Bristol Palin, the daughter of former Republican Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin. He is currently planning a run for the mayor's office in his hometown of Wasilla, Alaska. Sarah Palin was formerly mayor of Wasilla. Johnston is planning to star in a reality series chronicling his run, "Loving Levi the Road to the Mayor's Office."
Like "The View," "The Talk" features a roundtable of female panelists. The show has been described by many industry observers as a "View" knockoff. It's going to be fun to watch these two Estrogen-fueled chat fests duke it out for "gets" and ratings in the coming months.
