Whoopi Goldberg has been criticised online for a joke she made about Mariah Carey‘s physique during an episode of her hit show ‘The View.’
The show’s cast was joined by the actor Jerry O’Connell and quizzed him on the role he played in Carey’s ‘Heartbreaker’ visual. It was then, as Sunny Hostin pointed out that the video was released 20 years ago, that Goldberg suggested that it was released “20 bodies ago.”
She’s so mean omg

Mariah’s fans were upset by the joke.
No since she opened Oscars and mocked Mariah & Glitter ?

.@WhoopiGoldberg needs to clarify what she meant by "20 bodies ago" on @TheView when referring to Mariah Carey – body or slut shaming? The fact that she mumbled it under her breath only proves that she was knowingly vile, disgusting and unprofessional. She should apologise.

Is she lying tho? Moo keeps getting those surgeries and yet always ends up going back looking like Spongebob Squarepants.
lmaoooooo yup, complete with the wide flat ass lmfaoooooooooooo.
? and she looks so uncomfortable like she lacks confidence . The boobs made her look bigger idk why she and Wendy want those big upper bodies
you wrong b****! lmao not SBSP.
THE TRUTH IS THE TRUTH.
why are people so offended??
Mariah has not taken great care of her physique over the years. She gets really sloppy & then goes under the knife as opposed to exercising.
Mariah is overweight & sometimes, when an era or major appearance is coming up, she manages to tighten up.
Whoopi isn’t an attractive woman by far, but I appreciate her no holds barred personality.
Until I see you svelte, slim and trim after having two kids, STFU. Mariah is QUEEN whether she’s a size 6 or 16.
lmaooooo if any of us had mariah’s money we could buy svelte slim and trim just like she did lmaoooooooooooo
She was fat even before having kids. Have a seat boo.
She is a comedian though.
Mariah actually looks good right now.
Only a jealous, haggard witch would say something like that for laugh. We do not know what types of medical issues QUEEN Carey has that could be contributing to her weight fluctuations.
lmaooooooo bishhh plastic surgery and weight fluctuation are two different things lmfaoooooooooooooooo
But Mariah at her heaviest has never been as fat as ugly a$$ blimp mouth Jason Whitlock.
lmaoooo have several seats lambs, because whoopi spoke the truth, yall know damn well mooriah is a human blow up doll lmfaoooooooo
Whoopi should never body shame anyone because she has never been a supermodel or have a great body that has been or is admirable. The shade was corny and unnecessary.
WE REALLY DONT KNOW WHAT WHOOPI LOOKS LIKE UNDER THOSE HUGE BLACK SWEATERS THAT SHE THROW OVER THEM DREADS. I HEARD SHE DOESNT EAT MEAT SO SHE MIGHT BE SKINTY. who knows.
Only one thing stuck with me from this: Mariah was SO beautiful around that time. Extremely beautiful. From 1997 to 1999 maybe it was her best beauty wise. I had a friend many years ago that saw her at an event for the fans in 1999 in Madrid and he told me she was a “bellezón”.
Mariah has always been beautiful to me! She has the flavor that the others don’t lol…I agree, 1997 -1999 era was ? ??
She was the sexiness it girl around that era though. I just pointed out what most people thought around that time.
I loved Whoopi growing up watching her movies and I loved Mariah so much I used to cut her pictures out of magazines and tape them to my binder in middle school. Being a fan of both women, this is very disappointing. I don’t understand Whoopi’s feelings toward Mariah. People have had some cruel words about Mariah’s voice and her body and it’s all in an attempt to discredit her worth and her value among so many other people including myself. Mariah is beautiful inside and out and it was her music and Janet’s that got me through some very dark times. I have nothing but respect for Mariah and I am sickened by Whoopi’s words. I don’t even know how to feel about her anymore.
Mariah looks amazing! And who cares how she looks anyway? She can sing the pants off anyone else in the game. Whoopi, this wasn’t cool. Remember in 2009 when Whoopi pronounced Mariah’s album as Memories of an Imperfection Angel instead of Memoirs? Bye, Felicia!
lol not memories lol.
WHERE ARE THE LIES THO? WHOPPI WAS RIGHT
Honestly… whoopi Goldberg is a perfect example of a women putting down another woman, and body shaming Mariah as a way to insult and insinuate negativity… instead of empowering one another. I had a lot of respect for YOU as an actress and as decent human being, and your opinion up until this point. @whoopigoldberg how dare you?!?! As a woman of African heritage, a minority, fighting racism , and now playing as a host, you decide to use your platform to induce hate. Why you choose to decide that is anybody’s guess. You are the difinition of a #HATER I thought you had morals and beliefs that I also believed in… and that was my mistake. Thank you for making me realize that you old fart. For someone who farts on national television, you have no shame or dignity and there is also video evidence of your farts. I was just reminiscing how sister act was about 30 ASSHOLES ago… Your view has been cancelled. #UNNECESSARY #RUDE #NO1ASKED #YOUREWELCOME #HOWDOESTHATMAKEYOUFEEL? #ASSHOLE

I’m really surprised by Whoopi being so mean. She doesn’t really strike me as being a hater. Must be envy simple and plain. But then again Whoopi is a Scorpio woman. Scorpio women are quite obnoxious and full of themselves and I do not like mosst of the famous ones(Emma Stone, Pink, Julia Roberts) although there are some exceptions(Kelly Osbourne, Sean Young and Whoopi before the Mariah insult). I have lost all repsect ffor Miss Goldberg. Mariah has a beautiful perfectly curvy physique. Whoopi is not exactly an hourglass herself(not that it matters). Mariah is amazing and beautiful and will always reign in her craft.
