Don't Play With Her! Whoopi Goldberg Slams "The List" Rumors on 'The View'

Don’t play with Whoopi Goldberg. From her beginnings as a stand up comedian to Oscar-winning movie star, and now co-host of “The View,” Goldberg deserves her flowers. She has also always been forthright about what she likes and what she loves to do in her personal life: nothing.

So it recently tickled her when the Jeffrey Epstein documents and list of associates were unsealed, and she somehow found herself in the mix. As it turns out, there is a fake list circulating with her and other prominent Black figures on it, and she addressed the whole situation with typical Whoopi fashion.

She added, “I never got kicked out of Gordon Ramsay’s restaurant. I never got kicked out of Guy Fieri’s restaurant. I didn’t get kicked off Bill Maher’s show. I didn’t get into a fight with Oprah backstage here at ‘The View.’ I mean, it just goes—it’s insane. It goes on and on and on. Sites get away with posting all kinds of garbage, and they call it satire.”

The hosts went into all the misinformation/conspiracy nonsense floating around about the list, and how people need to be careful about where they get their news. Whoopi also had some advice for sites that recklessly publish these stories under the guise of satire.

“Once someone is cleared of your insanity, they’re going to call their lawyer on you,” she said. The “Sister Act” star also let everyone know she’s the only one who will have the truth about what she’s up to.

“Don’t believe unless I tell you about me,” the EGOT winner said. “You’ll know if I’m doing something. I’ll let you know. I have nothing to hide. I don’t care what people think. It’s so insane and you know I don’t go anywhere.”

From the Whoopi’s mouth.
