Whoopi Goldberg had everyone talking on a recent episode of ‘The View’ when she walked off the stage during a live show. This moment was sparked by a controversy involving singer Miranda Lambert, who stopped one of her concerts to scold fans for taking selfies. Although Whoopi’s departure was just a joke, it left many critics hopeful for some exciting drama.
Let’s dig into the background of the situation. Miranda Lambert found herself in the middle of a debate after reprimanding fans who were taking selfies during her show. While concertgoers often take photos to share on social media or keep as memories, Lambert felt it was disrespectful and decided to call them out. The co-hosts of ‘The View’ had a heated discussion on whether Lambert was right to do so or if fans should be allowed to take selfies at concerts.
Co-host Alyssa Farah Griffin tried to find a middle ground, suggesting that Lambert shouldn’t embarrass fans who paid good money to see her perform. However, this only led to more debate. Whoopi Goldberg chimed in, stating that fans should show some respect and acknowledge that they can see the performer and vice versa.
Sara Haines, another co-host, brought up the fact that the fans Lambert scolded were sitting close to the stage. But does that justify the singer’s actions? Sunny Hostin implied that Lambert was in the wrong, mentioning the exorbitant price of VIP tickets at the concert venue. If fans are paying hundreds of dollars for tickets, shouldn’t they be allowed to take a few photos to commemorate the experience?
It is important to find a balance between enjoying the show and capturing the moment. Taking photos at the right time can enhance the concert experience without disrupting others or being publicly humiliated by the artist. Whoopi Goldberg had a strong reaction to this, suggesting that people should “stay home” if they can’t stop taking selfies. To prove her point, she even walked into the live audience and took a selfie with someone.
The video of Whoopi’s walk-off quickly took the internet by storm, giving fans a lighthearted moment amidst the intense debate. What do you think? Watch the video below and decide for yourself!
