Sportsheets’ Sex&Mischief Appear on ABC’s ‘The View’

HUNTINGTON BEACH, Calif. — Sportsheets’ Sex & Mischief collection was featured on ABC’s talk show “The View” in a segment showcasing some of co-host Sherri Shepherd’s “Favorite Things.”

Alongside the breakout erotic novel “Fifty Shades of Grey,” Shepherd showcased the Sex & Mischief Wild About S&M Kit and gave a demo with co-host Joy Behar.

“This is my new favorite,” Shepherd said. “[‘Fifty Shades of Grey’] had a lot of scenes in there where they talked about some bondage. You know, a little S&M never hurt anybody.”

According to the company, Shepherd encouraged the show’s millions of fans to give bondage play a try and told the audience that she was inspired while reading “Fifty Shades of Grey,” even texting her husband about it all night long.

“It might be something you may want to try, so I got a little bit experimental and thought mmm, this is something that might be a little fun!” she said. “For the experimental — you want to try that with your spouse.”

Sportsheets executives were recently interviewed for a Bloomberg feature about the “Fifty Shades” phenomenon.
