Whoopi Goldberg made a surprising exit from The View during a heated discussion about Miranda Lambert’s recent concert controversy. The debate erupted after Lambert called out fans for taking selfies during her performance. Alyssa Farah Griffin argued that Lambert shouldn’t publicly shame paying fans, while Whoopi sided with the singer, criticizing selfie-takers for being disrespectful during concerts.
Sara Haines mentioned that the fans were near the stage but questioned if Lambert’s reaction was justified. Meanwhile, Sunny Hostin defended the concert-goers, pointing out the high price of VIP tickets, saying, “If I paid $757, I’m taking as many selfies as I want.”
As the discussion intensified, Whoopi suggested that if people can’t stop taking photos of themselves, they should “stay home.” After further disagreement with Hostin, Whoopi humorously walked off the set and into the live audience, taking a selfie to emphasize her point.
Her playful exit was a lighthearted moment, not a genuine departure from the show.
