Star & Rosie Speak Out On Whoopi

It was only a matter of time!

Former View co-hosts Rosie O’Donnell and Star Jones are chiming in on the addition of Whoopi Goldberg as moderator of the show.

“Whoopi is fantastic in every way and perfect for the job,” O’Donnell tells The Insider. “She’s amazing and one of my favorites.”

What Rosie wishes she said: “Whoopi’s an amazing choice, and she’s almost like a fat lesbian herself. She’s one of my favorites, besides myself.”

“Whoopi is a smart women with an opinion, and an excellent choice,” adds Reynolds. “She brings life experience outside of the entertainment business and diversity with intelligence. I wish her the best.”

What Star wishes she said: “I prayed to God that it would be Whoopi. Unfortunately they didn’t want to hire my husband. They said he wasn’t gay enough!”
