The ‘View’ co-host sparks outrage and confusion after making an unexpected remark about immigration enforcement during a live discussion.

Whoopi Goldberg’s Shocking Comment

October 8, 2025: TV personality and The View co-host Whoopi Goldberg has once again made headlines after offering what many are calling a “bizarre” and “inappropriate” suggestion about fooling ICE agents at the Super Bowl. The comment, made during a live segment of The View, quickly went viral and left viewers stunned.

During a discussion about immigration and public safety at major events, Goldberg joked about how individuals could potentially disguise themselves to avoid detection by ICE (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) officers. Her remark, which was delivered in a lighthearted tone, didn’t sit well with many viewers who found it tone-deaf and insensitive given the gravity of immigration issues in the U.S.

Backlash and Online Reactions

Social media users were quick to react, with many expressing disbelief at Goldberg’s choice of words. Critics accused the Sister Act star of trivializing the struggles faced by immigrants, while others defended her, suggesting the remark was clearly meant as humor and taken out of context.

Clips of the moment circulated widely on X (formerly Twitter), where fans debated whether Goldberg’s comment was an example of comedic misjudgment or simply another case of The View’s lively — and often polarizing — commentary.

The View Responds

As of now, The View has not issued an official statement regarding the controversy. However, insiders close to the production say producers are “monitoring the reaction” and do not plan to take disciplinary action against Goldberg.

This isn’t the first time Whoopi has landed in hot water over on-air comments. Throughout her tenure on The View, she has sparked several high-profile debates and controversies, though she often stands by her remarks, emphasizing freedom of speech and open discussion.

Whoopi’s History of Outspokenness

Goldberg, an EGOT-winning performer and longtime television personality, has never shied away from addressing difficult topics. Despite criticism, she remains one of the most outspoken figures on daytime television, known for her unapologetic takes on politics, culture, and social issues.

Whether her latest comment will have lasting consequences remains to be seen — but once again, Whoopi Goldberg has everyone talking.
