Whoopi Goldberg Storms Off Set After Her Cohosts Go Too Far!
Whoopi Goldberg Storms Off Set After Her Cohosts Go Too Far!
Whoopi Goldberg walked off the set of the The View Tuesday, after foot fetishes became a hot topic among her co-hosts.
The women discussed an advice column published by Guardian, in which an anonymous reader lamented his wife’s decision to not allow him to give her foot massages after he confessed he had a fetish.
“You have to entertain your partner’s kink, within reason,” Alyssa Farah Griffin asserted during Tuesday’s show.
Her remarks prompted Goldberg to stand up and leave the set.
“Excuse me for a second,” the 68-year-old moderator said as she walked away. “Keep talking!”
Farrah Griffin, 34, declared — “Whoopi has left the building.”
Joy Behar later asked Goldberg why she left the convo, but the “Sister Act” actress declined to offer any clarity. It appeared that Goldberg made her exit in order to hand someone something off-camera.
She joked — “I was so enamored by what you were saying that I felt that I needed to take a breath so I could just get myself together, so I could come back to the table!”
Goldberg continued — “So, I just got up and walked away and just got myself together!”
Behar quipped — “This is what my feet do to people,” to which Goldberg replied — “This is what this conversation does to people. It makes them get up and move.”
She noted — “I don’t care ’cause my feet are huge, and no one wants to touch them!”
This wasn’t the first time that Goldberg took a pass on a topic of discussion featured on the ABC chat show.
Last year, the panelist made a quick exit during an intense back-and-forth over Miranda Lambert’s decision to pause her concert to chastise fans snapping selfies.
Goldberg rolled her eyes and sighed as she relayed the background story to her co-hosts during the July episode.
Goldberg sided with Lambert, noting that fans should’ve shown “at least a little respect” during the country artist’s concert.
Sunny Hostin pointed out that concert goers should be able to take as many pics as they want after paying nearly $800 a ticket. Goldberg became irritated, stood up, and walked into the studio audience, announcing — “I’m leaving, y’all!”
Goldberg went on to pose for selfies with audience members until the broadcast cut away to a commercial break.
The View airs Monday through Friday at 11 am ET on ABC.
