CLAIM: Barbara Walters Making Whoopi Goldberg “Crazy” on The View

Truth rating: 0

Barbara Walters is making Whoopi Goldberg so crazy on ‘The View,’” reports the National Enquirer, producers supposedly “had to include 10 paid ‘mental health’ days to keep their loose-lipped moderator from walking away!”

According to a “source” for the tabloid, “Whoopi despises Barbara so much that she almost didn’t sign the new contract.”

Enquirer “insiders” say “the bickering between the women often erupts into heated arguments during commercial breaks,” with one so-called “source” explaining, “Their relationship is so bad right now that on the days Barbara doesn’t come to work, Whoopi sings and dances around the set.”

The mag alleges that Walters and Goldberg’s relationship has been “deteriorating for a few years now,” and that it’s worse with Walters appearing more frequently on “The View.”

Of course, this isn’t the first time the Enquirer has floated this story of problems between the two hosts — and yet the tab’s tales never actually pan out.

Year after year, the magazine pretends to have inside dirt on trouble between Goldberg and Walters, and yet they continue to sign new contracts and work happily side by side.

A rep for the show tells Gossip Cop there’s “absolutely no truth” to the new report of Walters-Goldberg tension, and that it’s a “complete fabrication.”

    I don’t believe this story, if you watch The View you clearly see that Barbara favors Whoopi above the others, she regularly comments about how funny she is and about what she wears, many times saying how she “loves” Whoopi. It is kinda uncomfortable to watch Barbara when she kisses up to Whoopi with the other women right there!

  • Persianpickle

    I don’t watch THE VIEW I can’t stomach anyone on it.Whoopie is racist and Barbara needs to retire!

  • Jennnifer

    Nonsense. I watch The View all the time and there is no such tension. In fact, it is obvious the two ladies respect and enjoy each other. There is always warmth and liking in their exchanges. The Enquirer is bird cage liner.

    How anybody can sit thru a View show without feeling like throwing up is beyond me!! There is nothing but empty, vapid content and most of the “hostesses” have been morally bankrupt for years!! These people do not serve the greater good and need to get REAL jobs!!

    what’s the point of asking reps? don’t they lie all the time? why not ask travolta’s lawyer if he’s gay, gossip pig?

    Definitely something going on with Whoopi. Slovenly, unprofessional, farting, going to sleep on air, stealing stuff off stage when they have Gadget Guy or food stuff. Upstaging when others are doing segments. Betcha Barbara is afraid to upset “the balance?” on the show by firing Miss W. It’s drugs, pure and simple. Remember the Ted Danson thing with black face that back fired way back then? That’s when the melt down began and I am seeing it Monday to Friday on the View. The show has my attention. I am waiting for the final blow. Whoopi won’t quit. She needs the job. Sister Act and Ghosts were a long time ago. She can’t act anymore. Needs rehab but I’ll bet she won’t go.

    I’m not sure about Whoopi going to rehab, but I do not like when Barabara is on the show. She is a old now and need to give them some space. Whoopi can be disrespectful many times to Barabara, talking above her, making faces when she’s about to talk, and arguing with her and trying to be a bully. I do not like that , it doesn’t look good.

  • Zoey Industries

    Whoopi is not the only one dancing when Barbara is not on the show, ME TOO!!! It is time for Barbara to go away, in some cases she is totally anoying. Her interviews anymore are ridiculous and childlike behavior. Please ABC retire the woman.
