‘I’m Leaving Y’all’: Whoopi Goldberg Walks Off ‘The View’ Amid Miranda Lambert Controversy
Amaya BrooksWhoopi Goldberg departed the set of ABC's The View after a heated dispute about the viral footage of Miranda Lambert berating concertgoers.
Miranda Lambert's controversial decision to interrupt her performance of "Tin Man" to scold a group of female fans for snapping pictures during her set went viral, and the comic was arguing about it. Along with Whoopi, Sarah Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin were witness to her exit.
They paid for tickets and came to see her, yet they still don't want to be there. If she's singing, be respectful and let her know that you can see her and that she can see you, according to Whoopi.
But her co-hosts didn't share her opinion.
"I have a clear opinion about this. The VIP area tickets, which cost $757, are rather expensive. When Sunny said, "I'll take as many selfies as I want if I paid $757," Whoopi departed.
