Whoopi Goldberg didn't go on a rant and mention any racial slurs backstage at "The View" despite a report published by Daily Mail. The publication previously reported that the comedian used N-word and called herself "slave."
A so-called "source" from the set told the publication that the Oscar winner was upset about the new consulting producer Candi Carter and how ABC left her out of decision-making for Hot Topics segment by moving the meeting for the segment outside of her contracted hours.
The source said, "She was out of control. She paraded up and down the halls saying, 'I's a work for ABC who is my master. I's a slave to ABC. It's 12 Years a Whoopi at ABC.' " Of what caused the outburst, the source explained Whoopi was "upset at the changes that Candi has implemented in the show, and not liking the way Candi speaks to the talent, Whoopi blew up a few days ago."
The source claimed that Whoopi mentioned N-word during her rant. Whoopi allegedly declared, " 'I's just a n****r following orders around here, master!' " The source went on saying, "She told Candi, 'I dont take orders from your a**. Stay in your lane like you did when you worked on 'The Oprah Winfrey Show'.' "
Responding to the report, a rep for the show told Gossip Cop that the report was completely fabricated. The rep said that the report saying Whoopi used N-word and called herself "slave" was "ridiculous, untrue and offensive."
