Today, ABC’s The View held the first of their live broadcasts from Disney’s Animal Kingdom in Walt Disney World. The show opened with the cast of Festival of the Lion King performing “Circle of Life.” Then, from a desk set up in front of the iconic Tree of Life, the ladies discussed their typical hot topics before interview Disney-fan John Stamos, playing for fun pre-recorded packages, and hosting a performance by Andy Grammer.
