ABC is also announcing that Victoria Beckham will make her first guest appearance on The View Sept. 14.

Previously announced as guest co-hosts next month are Meghan McCain, daughter of former GOP presidential candidate John McCain, and former Fox News Channel anchor E.D. Hill.

Besides Hasselbeck, regular co-hosts of The View include Barbara Walters, Whoopi Goldberg, Joy Behar (BAY'-hahr) and Sherri Shepherd.
