Whoopi Goldberg Wants Out Of 'The View’: Report
Aug. 20 2014, Published 8:16 a.m. ET
Even though Whoopi Goldberg just signed a four-year contract as a co-host on ABC’s The View, a source tells The National ENQUIRER that Goldberg wants out!
“Whoopi regrets roping herself in like that and is trying to figure a way out,” said a source close to Goldberg. “She wants to do other projects and feels network honchos are holding her back.”
According to one report, Goldberg dissed The View’s executive producer and founder Barbara Walters, who retired in May, following a screening of potential replacements.
Goldberg allegedly snapped, “I’ve been working with a cranky 85-year-old woman who’s been mad about everything for 2 years, and I need a break,” referring to Walters.
After co-hosts Jenny McCarthy and Sherri Shepherd were forced out, and it was announced recently that controversial host Rosie O’Donnell will return, Goldberg doesn’t trust anyone that’s left on the hit show.
“Whoopi will miss working with Sherri Shepherd, whom she mentored,” the source told The ENQUIRER.
