After Being Snubbed…
Filed under: Awardz > Whoopi GoldbergIt's all cool, babies!
Whoopi Goldberg spoke to Gil Cates, the producer of the Academy Awards, on Tuesday.
Yup, they discussed her being omitted from an Oscar montage that featured a lot of the show's hosts.
He apologized. She accepted.
Click here to watch her talk about it on The View this morning.

Get over yourself Whoopi
do you not have and juicy celebrity gossip? come on perez! live up to your name! borinnnnngggggg!
Honestly - no one noticed, and no one cares.
Re: tess – Right.
Hey Whoopi, welcome to the real world where the only pat on the back is the one you give yourself. Why is it that celebrities CONSTANTLY need acknowledgements and the rest of us just need to "get over it"???
i can see why she'd be insulted, but she didnt have to make that big of a deal of it.
[[[[[[[[[[[[[ whoopi, I alwayz luv/d U..and now U picked hillary…I really
zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz feel y'r love…do me a favor and KICK THAT ELIZABITCH

VOTE FOR HILLARY.BITCHEZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Who bloody cares! Get a grip already. I swear these people exist in an alternate universe. So full of self importance.
who caresssssssssss……..
This woman is riduculous. Her stint on The View has proved so far that she is; obnoxious, self important - big time, rude to a fault (all the pulling faces behind the guest's and co-presenter's backs) and always right. Add to this the FACT that she is so unattractive to look at and what do we have. Someone who is so far removed from a genuine existance in this world that despite being included in another segement of the Oscar telecast, she wasn't shown as a presenter. Boo hoo, I'm so disgusted by her and the hoopla surrounding this, that I had to add this comment.
Re: aileen (canada) – I couldn't have said it better.
Who cares! In the big scheme of things this is a self-centered thing to be upset about.
Oversight my ass. Not every single host was in every montage. Steve Martin wasn't in it. Whoopi wasn't in it.
GET OVER YOURSELF, BITCH.
This bitch needs to get over herself. It was NOT a "host" montage, it was just a montage of "Oscar moments". Steve Martin was not included (he hosted) and HE'S not blubbering about it. Whoopi Goldberg needs to shut her ugly face up. She makes me want to puke!
It is so funny reading some of the ridiculous comments in here. People have been slamming Whoopi for making a big deal out of this. FIRST OF ALL, Whoopi WAS NOT THE ONE who made a big deal out of it, HER CO-HOSTS DID. THEY BROUGHT THIS WHOLE THING UP, WHOOPI DIDN'T. So before you go jumping on this woman anymore…why don't you get your facts straight first you little kids.
Whoopi was brought to tears because she was touched by what her co-hosts were telling her. She did not bring up this issue at all, her co-hosts did. So stop criticizing Whoopi. She didn't do anything. I tell you, one little thing and simple minded people will jump on you for nothing.
So for all those hatin' on Whoopi in here…why don't you GET OVER YOURSELF!
such a diva!
She didn't bring it up, it was her co-hosts and she's probably just following through probably so it doesn't contribute to those ridiculous The View feuds that take place from time to time. O'Donnell v Trump, O'Donnell v Elizabeth, O'Donnell v Ripa, Barbara v Star and probably a bunch of others since I don't watch the show enough to know, just what I see on the news. (That O'Donnell was a scrapper, sheesh.)
Who gives a damn?! No one likes her ass anyway. NEXT!
This is news?
her impersonation of elizabeth was the best that show had ever hosted. anyway, loser!
Whiney fucking crybaby. I'm surprised she didn't pull out the race card too while she was at it.
boo-fuckin'-hoo! get over it
WE ALL KNOW THE REASON SHE WAS OMITTED AND THATS COS SHE IS BLACK BUT NO ONE WANTS TO SAY IT AS IT IS.WHITE PEOPLE CAN BE RACIST WITHOUT EVEN KNOWING IT.LOOK AT THAT GUY THAT KEPT ON MENTIONING OBAMA'S MIDDLE NAME TO DRUM UP THAT KKK INSTINCT THAT ALL WHITES HAVE AT THE JOHN MCCAIN RALLY YESTERDAY. WHITE PEOPLE SHOULD GET OFF THEIR HIGH HORSES FOR ONCE PLEASE.
MANNY FROM LONDON IS NOT MANNY FROM LONDON BUT THE SAME STUPID TROLL WHO COMMENTED ON THIS STORY THE OTHER DAY. IT'S OVER GET OVER IT EVERYBODY, BIG FUCKING DEAL WHOOPIE ACCEPTED THE APOLOGY AND NOBODY IS ON A HIGH HORSE(SAME WORDS AS BEFORE) OR TRYING TO START SHIT BUT THIS FUCKING TROLL. SHE WAS CENSORED BEFORE AND SHE IS GOING TO BE CENSORED AGAIN.
AWW poor thing…why are black people always wining about something? Maybe they should start a "Black Oscars" so Manny from London will be satisfied…IDIOT!
whoopie hosted the Oscars 4 times, if they didn't want her they would not have asked her back 4 times, we all know it ain't about color. As far as the Republican calling Obama Hussein, trolls come on here calling him Hussein all the time, we all see through that shit. Dems and Reps. fight dirty and will use anything, any weapon to get an advantage. Enough said.
whooppi better get over yourself. do you think we should feel
sorry for you cause they did not ask you to host the oscar..
get a life & go back to your trash show the view where you
belong. life not always revolve around ….
Honestly, what the fuck has she done in the last 5 years except have a permanent square on Hollywood squares. LAME LAME LAME! And I don't count the view as anything good she's done! She needs to get over herself big time. Her last good thing was like 10 years ago. It's such a bigger deal that Brad Renfro wasn't in the death montage because he seriously should have been in it. Who gives a shit if Whoopi was left out. She's so lame!
Now thats the true definition of MILKING IT
NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!!NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!! NOBODY CARES!!!!!!
ok they cut it off at that point….. so does anyone know what she'll be on tomorrow night
get over WHOOPI, you are too old to complain, how about just going away, you have no talent, are not good looking , just go away
Who the hell cares. I'm so sick of these grossly overpaid actors wining about this or that. Go to Darfur for a week, or a child's cancer unit, or a single parent who just lost their job. Get a Fucking Life Whoopi
you can always count on the internet to get your fill of racist comments.
AW COME ON PEOPLE…..SHE DID HOST THAT SHOW FOUR TIMES….I WOULD FEEL SNUBBED TOO. AT LEAST I DON'T THINK IT WAS RACIST….WAS AFRAID PEOPLE WOULD BUT IT WAS DEFINITELY AN OVERSIGHT. I'D BE PISSED TOO.
Re: MANNY FROM LONDON – #25 I HAVE TO ADMIT YOU'RE RIGHT. I WAS AT THE McCAIN RALLY YESTERDAY AND I THOUGHT THAT GUY BILL CUNNINGHAM WAS OUT OF LINE…HE ALWAYS IS….BUT JOHN McCAIN MADE A BEELINE TO THE PRESS AFTERWARDS TO APOLOGIZE FOR HIM. HE SHOULDN'T HAVE HAD TO DO THAT BUT HE FELT THAT GUY'S STATEMENTS REFLECTED ON HIS CAMPAIGN.
Oh Whoopie. Shut up. Move on. You were never that funny. Nobody cares that you hosted the Oscars. What a fucking unbelievably arrogant piece of trash she is.
Whoopi needs an ass whoopin! I'm a black actress living and working my ass off in NYC. I am so replused, disgusted, angered, and completly bothered by this shit! Usually I easily brush off celebrity ego bullshit, but not this time. Here's the f-ing point: YOU WON A OSCAR, YOU HOSTED THE SHOW, YOU MAKE TONS OF MONEY…WHEN WILL IT BE ENOUGH?!?! If I am ever fortunate, blessed, lucky enough to be in Whoopi's position I would shut my mouth and tell those other bitches to as well. Humility goes a long way Ms. Goldberg and you set an awful example to anyone out there who are working hard to make something of their passion. This is why Perez outs you all on this stuff. Shame on you…shame on you.
Who cares?? F**K the View!!
TEE HEE…THIS ONLY GENERATED FORTY TWO COMMENTS. #5 BEAN DIP IS RIGHT. WHY DO THEY ALL NEED SUCH ACKNOWLEDGEMENT? I WORKED HARDER THAN ALL THOSE PEOPLE TODAY AND I DON'T RECALL ANY BRIGHT LIGHTS AND APPLAUSE.
ouch that had to hurt.
The only one who should be calling Gill Gates out is the family of Brad Renfro.
TO ALL THE HATERS OUT THERE, KEEP IT UP! IT HELPS OTHERS WORK HARDER AND DO BETTER THAN ANY OF YOU WILL EVER DO. HER CO-HOST ARE THE ONES THAT BROUGHT IT UP, NOT HER. WHOOPI HAS NEVER NEEDED TO SWEAT HERSELF. (#41-nicole- you don't even think enough of yourself to begin your name with a capital letter)
SO ONE AGAIN, BIG-UP TO MY HATERS!!!!
#1,#3,#4,#5,#6,#8,#9, oh hell.. you get the point. Too much hate, not enough love and support…..
she is an ugly gay man. she, oops sorry, i mean he looks silly.
The way hollywood loses money there won't be an oscar ceremony next year. Lets face it, hollywoods product of late has been crap and if they don't come into the real world and make something decent they and all their averagely talented nobodys are heading for the dole queue.
