When it was confirmed that there would be two black women sitting at the coffee table of ABC's The View, the last thing I expected is that they would be at each other's throats.
Yesterday, Whoopi Goldberg and Sherri Shephard got into it (again) and this time it wasn't about the shape of the earth [click here] but about something of more importance...celebrity autographs!
Yes, it seems Whoopi and Sherri disagreed yesterday over whether celebrities should always give in to their fans upon their request for an autograph. Sherri feels a celebrity owes it to their fans to stop and give their fans an autograph when asked. Whoopi's response:
"So you're telling me that because you want my autograph, I'm supposed to stop for you? Who the hell are you? And I come with absolute respect when I say this."As Sherri grew increasingly annoyed by Whoopi's interruptions, Whoopi asked her to 'relax' by which Sherri replied, "I am relaxed." Whoopi's comeback:
"No, you're not. You're ready to fight! You're sitting like this,"At which point Whoopi took on a fighter's pose.
I don't know what to make of all this. Sherri, as of late, has been the center of all The View drama. Just last week, she inadvertenly outed Queen Latifah.
I predict a bigger blow up is coming soon which will lead to Sherri being ousted from the show ala Star Jones.

Whoopi needs to back off. It looks like this is going to a Black version of Rosie and Elisabeth. Whoopi is becoming a bully and Sherri needs to give her a godd a** whooping right away to nip this in the bud.
A few years ago I attended a benefit for breast cancer research that Carol Baldwin (The Baldwin Brother's mom) had organized. Whoopi was there and was HORRIBLE! When she arrived the photographers started taking photos of her and she flipped out. She caused a huge scene. She dramatically pulled them into a room and brutally scolded them for not asking permission to take "Whoopi's" picture. "You do not take Whoopi's picture without asking Whoopi if you can take her picture first! Is that clear?!?!" She spoke about herself in the third person!!!!
She was there as a celeb to help the cause. It's not like she was having a quiet dinner and the paparazzi suddenly ambushed her. It was a photo op to help promote a charity. As I indicated she caused a real scene and came off ridiculously callous and arrogant. No. I was not a photographer I was just a guest but I followed them into the scolding room just to see what was going down.
She really behaved like a spoiled jerk.
