Someone’s getting fired!
JK, we don’t know that for certain — but this flub was VERY bad.
Website TotalBeauty.com landed itself in deep doggy doo-doo on Oscar Sunday when someone running their Twitter account mistakenly thought Whoopi Goldberg was Oprah Winfrey while walking the red carpet. SMH!!!
Besides looking NOTHING like each other, the tweeter even commented on The View host’s chest tattoo — something Lady O CLEARLY doesn’t have. See the original tweet here:
SEE?! What the actual f*ck!!
The review site has since deleted the tweet and apologized, sharing:
We’d like to apologize to Oprah and Whoopi, as well as everyone we’ve offended. It was our error, and there are no excuses. We’re sorry.

Still, that didn’t stop people from screen-grabbing and commenting on the gaff. Check out the most scathing reactions (below):

On the bright side, at least @TotalBeauty got the skin color correct. #Oscars #OscarsSoWhite #WhoopiGoldberg #Oprah pic.twitter.com/0NJMJ9yiwZ
