The View host Whoopi Goldberg gets feisty with show cameraman in awkward moment caught before commercial break
WHOOPI Goldberg has moved on from arguing with her co-hosts on The View to apparently slamming the show’s crew now as well.
In a recent episode, filmed while the ladies were on location in the Bahamas, Whoopi and the other ladies were deep in a heated discussion about the Supreme Court’s decision to side with a high school football coach who sought to kneel and pray on the field after games.
Whoopi argued against the decision, asking if “everyone on the team down with (praying).”
She then answered her own question with “they weren’t.”
And then, as the 66-year-old was making her final point that this is a case of “an adult putting his belief on these kids,” she ended sharply, and sternly threw to commercial.
But not before making sure to call out one of her behind-the-scenes co-workers on camera.

“We’ll be right back,” she shouted, before pointing a finger directly at the camera and saying sternly, “I know, I saw you.”
Her face wrinkled and she stared angrily into the camera until it panned away.
It’s just the latest outburst Whoopi has had during the show’s Bahamas trip.
To celebrate the show’s 25th anniversary, the hosts enjoyed a Bahamas getaway together and filmed the show on-location from their luxury Baha Mar Resort vacation.

However it was paradise lost for Whoopi, who has had several embarrassing moments while on the tropical trip.
CHLOE’S ENCOUNTER
During Wednesday’s show, Whoopi abruptly halted the show during an interview with guest Chloe Fineman.
The moment came after the host had had an on-air blunder, messing up the Saturday Night Live star’s name during the introduction.
Whoopi welcomed her to the show as Chloe Fine-a-man but wanted a chance to try again.
After Chloe made her way over to the table, the crowd cheered and she sat down.
Before jumping right into questions, Whoopi paused things to go back to the introduction a little.
“I’m going to say your name again because I said Fine-a-man and it’s Fineman,” Whoopi explained to the actress.
Chloe was very understanding and nodded.
“That’s ok. It almost reads like Fin-a-man (Cinnamon with an ‘F’), so,” she told the host.
Whoopi replied: “Well, I almost went there, but I didn’t. Anyway, Chloe’s here!”
SHUTTING IT DOWN
When Simu Liu walked out to join the co-hosts at the table, he had fans in a frenzy as he walked out with an open button-down shirt.
Whoopi shut down the audience, who wouldn’t stop screaming and cheering.
“Alright now! Alright now!” Whoopi hollered.
“He is not going home with anybody here – okay?”
Simu and the other panelists laughed as they began their discussion, but the audience kept whooping loudly as he gave his answers.
LAMPOONING THE VACATION
Even the trip itself has proved to backfire on Whoopi and the rest of the hosts, as fans have been furious about it ever since they revealed it last month.
It was all first shared back in May, when The View teased an “epic announcement” at the end of one of its broadcasts.
Fans were excited to see what it could be, whether it was a new permanent host or a massive giveaway for the show’s dedicated viewers.
Instead, it was to tell the audience that the hosts would be getting a luxury beach getaway.
On social media, fans blasted The View for teasing them and for flaunting the hosts’ vacation in their faces.
One upset Twitter user wrote: “For their big announcement, the View announced that they’re going to the Bahamas.

“They know all of us can’t go, but we can go to their site for information on tickets…… meanwhile I’ll be here, working from home while they enjoy their paid vacation.”
They added sarcastically: “Yay for everyone.”
