Following a contentious argument about the widely shared video of Miranda Lambert berating concertgoers, Whoopi Goldberg left the ABC television series The View set.
The comedian was in the middle of debating the viral moment when Miranda Lambert stopped singing her hit song “Tin Man” in the middle of her performance to reprimand a group of audience girls for taking selfies when she was performing. Sarah Haines, Joy Behar, Sunny Hostin, and Alyssa Farah Griffin were also present when Whoopi got up and left.
“Even though they came to see her and paid for tickets, they don’t want to be there. Whoopi stated, “So if she’s singing, show her at least a little respect so that you know you can see her and she can see you too.”
The co-hosts, however, disagreed with her viewpoint.
“I’m not at all divided on this. The $757 tickets in the VIP area they were in are pricey. Whoopi left after Sunny declared, “I’m going to take as many selfies as I want if I paid $757.”
When she saw a ninety-one-year-old woman and stopped to snap a selfie with her, the audience laughed as she exited the room. because I would like a photo with this amazing ninety-one-year-old woman. We shall so take a selfie. You and I together.
