Today on The View, the ladies were talking about should you keep your shoes on when you are a guest, and the host asks you to remove them.
Then Joy Behar not only told us about how beautiful her feet are, but she also showed them to us. Not to be outshined, Sarah Haines and Sonny Hostin also showed off their tootsies.
So while the three women were arguing over who has the prettiest toes, Whoopi Goldberg called for a commercial break.
Who knew their feet were as polarizing a topic as politics for them, but it is.
Who do you think has the prettiest feet? I vote for Sonny.
On Monday, the women of The View were talking about schools banning the book Maus, which is about the Holocaust. They then talked about all of the bannings that are going on throughout the country. This led to Whoopi Goldberg saying that the Holocaust is not about race “because it was two white groups of people.”
Well, needless to say, that comment did not go over well with people outside of the show. Rightfully, there was a lot of outrage over comments. So she issued her “sincerest apology” on social media that night. “On today’s show, I said the Holocaust’ is not about race, but about man’s inhumanity to man.’ I should have said it is about both. As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, ‘The Holocaust was about the Nazi’s systematic annihilation of the Jewish people – who they deemed to be an inferior race,'” she wrote, “I stand corrected.
The Jewish people around the world have always had my support and that will never waiver. I’m sorry for the hurt I have caused.”
Yesterday on the show, she apologized again. However, it was not enough for Kim Godwin, President, ABC News. “Effective immediately, I am suspending Whoopi Goldberg for two weeks for her wrong and hurtful comments,” she said in a statement. “While Whoopi has apologized, I’ve asked her to take time to reflect and learn about the impact of her comments. The entire ABC News organization stands in solidarity with our Jewish colleagues, friends, family and communities.”
While I agree with Godwin, I don’t think it is enough. I say that because Goldberg has had a lot of time off for health issues over the last few years. Therefore, it will feel the same as that, instead of like she is being punished. I don’t know what more Godwin can do, but Goldberg should be punished harsher for her comments.
Now that I think about it, she does have a Jewish last name, so let her learn what it truly means to be Jewish. There are plenty of yeshivas in NYC. Send her to one of them to get a lesson to learn all about the struggles Jews have gone through over the millenniums. Just because most of our skin is white doesn’t mean that all white people consider us white. We are a religion and a race.
Now, back to The View. They need a new co-host. This week, it was apparent they need a Jewish person on the panel because not one of those ladies came down on her like they would go off on Meghan McCain or Elisabeth Hasselbeck. I am not defending those two, far from it, but they did get awfully quiet as she was talking. The only people who tried to silence her were the people in the control room who knew they had to go to commercial break ASAP.
I hope that Golberg takes the time to reflect on her comments during her two weeks off.
The ladies of The View had a sh!tty Christmas break, to put it mildly. The show starts off with them in boxes and Whoopi Goldberg nowhere to be seen. That is because she is home with COVID-19, and the other ladies are just home because of how quickly this variant is spreading.
When it comes to Goldberg, she just has minor symptoms because she boostered. She is not the only one to catch it during the break. Sarah Haines’ husband, Max, tested positive when they returned home from Miami to see her family.
Florida is where Ana Navarro’s dad was when he tested positive. But that was not the only awful thing to happen to her family in December. She lost her mother on December 14th. Thankfully, her father is negative and was able to spend New Year’s Day with his daughter.
Finally, Sunny Hostin tested positive for coronavirus right before Christmas. However, it was much worse for her because both her mother-in-law and her father-in-law passed away over the last two weeks.
I am so sad listening to that; I need a bottle of wine.
Hopefully, they will all be OK. My heart goes out to the women who lost their loved ones. Losing a parent is one of the worst pains you can ever go through.
Mark Cuban, Damon John, and Barbara Corcoran were on The View today to talk about the upcoming season of Shark Tank.
One of the things they discussed was that Skims’ Emma Grede is joining the competition show as a guest Shark this season. Besides Skims, she also sells jeans.
Ana Navarro told the panelists that those jeans are “really good.” Then Whoopi Goldberg said that she will have to try them. After some back and forth discussions about them, Corcoran chimed in and said to the Oscar winner, “And when you get finished with those jeans and decide you don’t like them. Give them to me. I’m going to make two pairs.”
Whoopi made a face. You know that one. The one that says it is a good thing that the talk show host has sciatica because if she didn’t, then she would’ve broken Corcoran in two.
Goldberg kept her cool after the comment. However, Navarro had her co-host’s behind. That is because she told Corcoran that both Sarah Haines and Jill Biden already wore the dress that Corcoran was wearing. They did.
When it comes to Corcoran, I doubt we will ever view her on The View again.
When the Real Estate Queen got home, she made an apology video. She apologized to anyone she offended, but she didn’t seem to apologize to Whoopi for the joke that she now realizes “wasn’t funny.”
When the producers and the hosts of The View woke up this morning, they thought that they would make news because Vice President Kamala Harris was going to be live in the studio on the daytime talk show. They were wrong.
After the first break, Sunny Hostin and Ana Navarro were separated from Joy Behar and Sarah Haines, and no one knew why. Then the producer informed them that the former two had tested positive for COVID-19, and they were escorted off the set.
Behar and Haines were left to fill time while dealing with the shock that they were that close to two people with a breakthrough case of coronavirus, and the Vice President of the United States about to walk out.
No one knew what to do, and it was live television. So Behar pretended she was Carol Burnett and took questions from the audience as they waited for the VP to make her appearance.
However, the show and Secret Service decided not to risk the VP’s health, and she answered their questions from a remote location. A smart decision because the Republicans would have had a field day if she caught COVID during her appearance on the show. Could you imagine?
Hopefully, Behar, 78, and Haines, who has three kids under 6, will not catch it, and Hostin and Navarro get well soon.
In case you are wondering, where is Whoopi Goldberg? She has been absent from the show most of this week because her sciatica has been acting. Who knew a pain in her a$$ would save her being that close to the virus, especially with all of her health issues.
The moral of this story is that we still need to be safe, even if we are vaccinated. There are still too many COVIDiots out there who are not getting the shot, risking their health and ours. Yes, if you are vaccinated, you can still get COVID. However, you won’t get anywhere as near of a severe case if you weren’t vaccinated. Stop whining like little babies who don’t know any better, and get the fucking show, you selfish assholes!
